2.Connect the other end of the USB cable (3) to an available USB port (4) on the side of the iMac, or on a USB hub (5).

a To connect the USB cable directly to the iMac, open the port door (6) on the side of the iMac, and with the three-pronged USB icon facing up, plug the cable into the USB port.

b To connect the USB cable to a USB hub, plug the cable into the hub as shown below. The USB hub itself can be connected to a free USB port on the side of the iMac or on the iMac keyboard.

Caution:

Do not plug the USB cable directly into the iMac keyboard. The USB port on the keyboard does not supply its own power, so the combined current drain of the printer and the keyboard might exceed USB specifications.

3.Turn on the printer (and the USB hub, if con- nected), and then turn on the iMac computer.

4.Open the ‘English’ folder, and then double-click on the Install OKI DP-5000icon.

5.Follow the instructions on-screen to complete the installation.

When more than one OKI printer is connected to the USB port, each printer will be assigned a separate USB port number (USB #1, USB #2, and so on).

4.Close the Chooser. Click OK to confirm you have changed your current printer.
