Till 2022 default drivers from Sato didn’t work with Medialog and you had to install Seagull (Bartender) drivers. But during 2022 Microsoft launched some updates and printing became very slow.
If this is the case for you then you should go to following instruction page.
If you are installing a WS408DT printer for the first time and your Windows is updated on regular basis then you should ‘NOT’ install Seagull drivers anymore but install the original ‘SATO drivers’.
