Completing your installation on a Windows 3.1 computer

1Click Restart Windows.

After Windows restarts, the Adobe PostScript Printers control panel appears.

2Select the drive that holds your CD from the Drives list box (or select

WIN_OS\WIN_31\APPLE\DISK2).

3Select LaserWriter 8500 from the PostScript Printer Descriptions Available list and click

Install.

The PostScript printer driver files are installed on the hard disk. A message

appears telling you that the driver software was successfully installed.

4Click OK to dismiss the message.

5Select another Apple LaserWriter printer, if you want, and click Install.

Repeat for each printer you want to install.

`6When you’re done, click Close.

A message appears telling you to use the Printers control panel to connect

and set up the printers you've installed. By default, each printer uses LPT1.

The Printers control panel Setup dialog box lets you specify a different port,

for example, LPT2, or a NetWare queue.

Installation is complete.

7Choose how to proceed:

For users connected via the parallel cable, the default printer driver settings

should suffice.
