Make sure the disk named here is the one on which you want to install the Color StyleWriter

2400 software.

IMPORTANT The Installer determines whether you have the correct system software and enough memory to use this printer. If you do not, the Installer displays a message telling you what you need. You won’t be able to install the printer software until you correct the system software or memory problem. If the message reports a problem, you can purchase new system software or memory from an Apple-authorized dealer.

In the Installer dialog box, click Install.

When you’re ready to begin, click Install.

After a few minutes, the Installer begins to install the printer software. A status box keeps you informed of progress during installation.

5When you see a message on your screen, follow directions and insert the next disk.

The Installer ejects disks and asks you to insert others. Keep following the instructions on the screen until the installation is complete.

6When you see a message reporting that installation was successful, click Restart.

The Installer restarts your Macintosh.

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. A list of choices appears. To install something from the list, click to select it, then click the Install button.
