Power button.

B. INSTALLING THE PRINTER DRIVER

The CD Color Printer III can be used with virtually any

Macintosh application program. This is accomplished by

installing what is called a “

printer driver

.” The printer driver is

simply software which gives the printer all the information

needed for printing. Use the following steps to install the

printer driver.

NOTE: This section of the Operator’s Manual assumes that you are already

familiar with a Macintosh Operating System (OS) and know how it

operates. If you are not yet familiar with a Macintosh OS, consult the

appropriate documentation to become familiar with the basics before

proceeding.

1. After starting your Macintosh, insert the supplied Printer

Software CD into your computer’s CD-ROM drive, and

open the Macintosh Software folder

2. Click on the READ ME file(s) to get the latest information

on the driver and the installation process. When you are

finished reading, select Quit from the File menu.

3. Double-click on the CD Color Printer III Installer icon.

4. When the Installer window appears, select the options you

would like the installer program to install. In most

instances, the default selections will suffice. For a

description of each of these options, refer to the notes

found in the box directly above these options (use the up

and down arrows to scroll through the notes). Once the

desired options are selected, click on Install. The
