Installation troubleshooting
If the Installer can’t complete the installation, it will issue a warning message.
Here are some ways to fix common problems:
m You may not have the correct hardware or system software for this printer.
If so, the Installer will tell you what you’re missing.
m You may have forgotten to turn off your virus-detection software as
described in the section “Using the Apple Printer Software Collection
CD-ROM disc,” earlier in this chapter.
m You may have some corrupted fonts on your hard disk. To solve this
problem, see “Installation Is Unsuccessful” in Chapter 6.
More information about the Installer program
In the procedure just described, the Installer copies all the software you need
to your hard disk. In rare circumstances you may want to copy only a subset
of the software. In that case choose Custom Install from the pop-up menu in
the Installer. When a list of choices appears, select the items you wish to
install, then click the Install button. (Click the letter i to the right of any of
the choices for information.)
Power Macintosh users and virtual memory
If you are using a Power Macintosh computer, you may want to turn on
virtual memory before you try to print on the Color StyleWriter 6500. Then
choose a setting that’s at least 1 MB higher than your “Available built-in
memory.” (You can set it higher without any ill effects.) With this setting, you
will avoid some potential printing problems. Turning on virtual memory also
reduces the amount of memory needed by many applications. For instructions
on turning on virtual memory, see the documentation that came with your
computer.
