Installing EPSON Stylus RIP for Macintosh

Checking the Printer

Before you install the EPSON Stylus RIP software, follow the instructions in your printer’s documentation to prepare your printer for use. Make sure you perform the following steps:

If you’ll be using the printer in a “typical” network configuration (described in the following section), install an optional network interface card in the printer. See your printer’s documentation for instructions. (Not every printer has a network interface card option.)

Load paper, install ink cartridges, and allow your printer to complete its entire ink charging cycle.

Run a printer self test to make sure it operates properly.

Connect the printer directly to your Macintosh or to the network.

Install the standard non-PostScript EPSON driver and utilities that came with your printer.

Send a sample print job with the standard printer driver to make sure the interface connection and cable are secure and the software is installed correctly.

Once the printer is set up and tested fully, you’re ready to install the EPSON Stylus RIP software on your system.
