Step 13: Macintosh Network Installation
Installing the Macintosh Printer Software
The Macintosh printer driver for this printer supports system version 7.0
or later.
For an EtherTalk or LocalTalk network, install the software on each
workstation. The installation procedures are the same for an
administrator and a client workstation. The Mac OS portion on the
compact disc contains an installer program for each language.
Find the language that is appropriate for the operating system and then
use the installer program for that language.
To install printer software for system 7.5 or later
1 Restart the computer while holding down the space bar. This opens the
Extensions Manager.
2 From the Extensions Manager, disable all extensions except the ones
needed to run the CD-ROM drive.
3 Close the Extensions Manager.
4 Insert the CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.
5 Double-click HP Color LaserJet 8500 Printer Installer for your
language and then follow the instructions on the screen.
6 After you complete the installation, restart the computer while holding
down the space bar.
7 Open the Extensions Manager and re-enable the extensions you disabled
in step 2 above.
8 In Chooser, select HP Color LaserJet 8500. (For instructions, see
“Connecting Network Clients to the Printer” later in this section.)
To install printer software for system 7.0 or 7.1

language to the hard disk by dragging the installer’s icon onto the hard
disk’s icon or onto the Macintosh desktop.
