Yes it does. You'll have to get the software from:
http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&releaseid=R56532&SystemID=PRN_ALL_A940&category=0&os=WW1&osl=en&deviceid=4150&devlib=40&fileid=67478

Install software BEFORE connecting printer to PC. Connect ONLY when it
tells you to do so.
