When you install Windows Printing System, you will be given the choice of installing all
parts of the system (“Express” installation), or only the parts that you specify
(“Custom” installation).
The Express installation will install all of the above files, and will require approximately
5 MB of free hard disk space. If you have limited hard disk space, or do not want to
install some of the parts, select Custom Instaliation, and then deselect the parts you
do not want to install from the Custom Installation dialog box.
If you perform a custom installation, you can go back later and install components
which you did not install the first time without having to install the whole Windows
Printing System over again. To do so, start the installation as normal, select Custom
Installation, and then select the items which you want to install this time and deselect
the items which have already been installed.
