Many drivers, like this one, are packaged as a self-extracting .exe (SFX).
When you clicked on the file object, it executed, which is the normal
action for a double-click on a program object or an executable file
object.

The contents of the SFX were extracted and now you are ready to install
the driver. To do this:

- Drag a printer template to the Printers folder
- Fill in the requested info
- When the time comes to select a printer, select the "Other driver"
button
- Select the folder containing the driver
- CLick on the Refesh button
- Select your printer from the list
