This chapter describes how to install and use the Stylus
COLOR 500 printer software on your Macintosh. If you have
a PC, see Chapter 2 instead.
The printer software includes a printer driver, which allows
your computer to control the printer; you must install it to use
the printer. The driver lets you control printer settings such
as resolution, media type, and halftoning. The Macintosh
diskettes that came with your printer contain the printer driver
software and the Epson Monitor2 and Bi-D Calibration utilities.
Note:
Be sure to make backup copies of your software diskettes.
Installing the Printer Driver Software
Follow the steps below to install the Macintosh printer driver
and other utilities:
1. Turn on your printer.
2. To turn off all virus protection programs before you install
the printer software, hold down the
Shift
key while you
turn on or restart your Macintosh. (After installation, you
can restart the computer without pressing
Shift
to use the
virus protection programs.)
3. Insert the EPSON Macintosh Disk 1 into a diskette drive.
4. If necessary, double-click the Disk 1 icon to open the driver
disk window.
Note:
For the latest information on your printer and its driver,
double-click the
README
icon in the driver disk window.
