Installing Windows (futurePRNT) Driver
If there are drivers already installed, uninstall the current drivers before continuing.
Download the driver from the Star Micronics Global Support Site.
Search for TSP143III in the search box, and select the resulting record.
Download the TSP 100 futurePRNT Software Setup EXE File by clicking on Download.
Click “I Agree” in the prompt
Click on DOWNLOAD
Save the resulting file to your downloads folder, and then launch the file once the download has finished.
If you receive a UAC Permission prompt, click on Yes.

Ethernet Printer Installation (Static)
Determine the printer’s IP Address on the network. This can be done by performing a self-test page.
Ensure the printer power is off and that it is connected to the network.
Press and hold the FEED button in the front while turning the power switch on.
Release the FEED button after approximately three seconds.
The printer outputs the first page of the self-test showing hardware settings. About ten seconds later, the next self-test print showing network configuration. The bottom of this second printout shows the IP Address, as displayed below.
Note: If the IP Address line feeds “0.0.0.0 (Didn’t obtain)”, the printer did not receive an IP Address.
Note: Using a Static IP Address, means that the IP Address will not change on the printer side and will remain the same until the printer is reset to factory mode.
