For specific steps on how a user can install the printer software on a Mac OS
computer and set up the printer from the Chooser, refer to “Installing the
Printer Software” and “Selecting and Setting Up the Printer” in Chapter 6.
Installing onto a server
If you prefer that users install their software from a network server rather
than passing around the original floppy disks or CD-ROM disc, you must
copy the LaserWriter installation software to a server as follows:
Preparing a server using the CD-ROM disc
The CD-ROM disc shipped with the LaserWriter 12/640 PS contains a
network installation folder. To prepare a server:
1 Insert the
LaserWriter 12/640 PS Software Installation
CD-ROM disc into the
CD-ROM drive.
2 Double-click the disc icon, if necessary.
3 Double-click the MACINTOSH folder, if necessary.
4 Drag the INSTALL folder from the CD to your server.
Preparing a server using the floppy disks
1 Create a new folder on the server and rename it (for example, Network Install).
2 Insert
LaserWriter Disk 1 for Mac OS.
3 Drag the LaserWriter Disk 1 icon onto the icon of the folder.
IMPORTANT
You must drag the disk icon rather than copy the contents of the
disk directly.
