Installing the printer software from the server
After you’ve copied the software to the server as described in “Preparing a
Server so Users Can Install Over a Network” earlier in this chapter, users can
install the software on their own computers by following these steps:
1 Turn off any automatic virus-detection programs on your Macintosh before installing the
software.
If you don’t, problems may occur during the installation. After installation is
complete, you can turn the virus-detection programs back on. (For
instructions on turning off each virus-detection program, see the manual that
came with the program, or telephone the manufacturer of the program.)
2 Log on to the server from the computer where you want to install the software.
3 Open the folder that contains the printer software.
4Double-click the Installer icon.
A dialog box opens to describe the installation.
5Click the Continue button to close the dialog box.
6Click the Install button.
The Installer takes a few moments to calculate what needs to be done and
then begins to install files.
7 Follow the instructions on the screen until the installation is complete.
After the installation, the Installer tells you to restart your computer.
8Click the Restart button.
The software is now installed and the printer is ready for use. If you turned
off any automatic virus-detection programs on your Macintosh, turn them
back on now. After installing the printer software, you need to set it up to use
the printer. See “Selecting and Setting Up the Printer” in Chapter 6.
