Due to recent Symantec and other malware/virus monitoring security updates, some customers have been experiencing warnings when trying to installing the Zing, Legend, Fusion, and FiberMark series print drivers. Most of these issues can be traced back to the security settings within Windows or the malware monitor software you have installed on your computer.
This article includes an example of the problem some customers are experiencing and how to complete the driver install if you are experiencing the issue.
Here are a couple examples of the warning Windows SmartScreen brings up once the driver install program has been downloaded using Internet Explorer, then tries to Run.
Example 1
Example 2
This type of warning usually appears because Internet Explorer has saved the downloaded install program (.exe) to the browsers Temp folder, then runs the install program from that folder location. Symantec and Windows SmartScreen often block or warn you of applications that try to install from Temp folder for Internet Explorer. We have 3 solutions for this problem - bypass the warnings and install the driver, save the driver install on your hard drive and manually run the program, or download and install the individual driver files.
Note: In some extreme cases, it may be necessary to completely disable or uninstall your virus monitoring software. We have only come across this scenario with certain versions of Norton and Avast antivirus programs.
