A driver processing method on a terminal device, comprising: clicking a driver installation package in the terminal device connected to a peripheral device, wherein the driver installation package comprises a driver, and the driver installation package corresponds to various types of peripheral devices developed by a manufacturer; after clicking the driver installation package in the terminal device, entering a driver installation interface, including the steps of: displaying (101, 201) the driver installation interface, wherein the driver installation interface provides a connection method prompt message prompting a user to make a connection between the terminal device and the peripheral device, characterized in that the terminal device supports a USB port, a wired network port, and a wireless network port, and all ports supported by the peripheral device corresponding to the driver at the same time; at least three installation options are provided on the driver installation interface, and for each installation option a respective connection method prompt message is used to indicate how to make the connection between the terminal device and the peripheral device, and the user is prompted for a triggering instruction to indicate an installation option from the at least three installation options; wherein different connection method prompt messages correspond to different installation options, and the different installation options correspondingly require different connections between the terminal device and the peripheral device, such that the different connection method prompt messages, based on the different installation options, display that connection methods between the terminal device and the peripheral device are also different; and the triggering instruction is received, and the connection method prompt message respective of the indicated installation option is displayed to prompt the user to make the connection between the terminal device and the peripheral device. clicking a driver installation package in the terminal device connected to a peripheral device, wherein the driver installation package comprises a driver, and the driver installation package corresponds to various types of peripheral devices developed by a manufacturer;
