  • Double click the folder for your OS (Windows 3.1 or Win 95)
  • Click on  OK and proceed with the installation choosing OK when it lists the Stika as the printer
  • Finish your installation of the printer by choosing the right port, normally <Lpt1:>
  • Choose not to print a self-test and it should complete the installation
  • Go to your Corel Draw program
  • On the left side of your screen choose the outline pen then choose outline
