Using the Elite XL with a Macintosh 3-1

Software Installation

The Elite XL software for the Macintosh is provided on the Elite XL Software
and Documentation
CD-ROM. The installer places all of the Elite XL printing
software onto your startup disk (the startup disk is the hard disk that contains
the System and Finder

files used to start your Macintosh). System level

software (printer drivers, screen fonts, PPD) are copied into the appropriate
locations, according to the System version in use. Utilities (LaserWriter Utility)
and application-specific files are copied into a folder, created by the installer,
named

Elite™ XL Folder. The application-specific files (PPD, PDF, MPD,

PDX) are located in a folder named Application Files within the Elite XL
Folder.

To install the Elite XL software:

1.

Insert the Elite XL Software and Documentation CD-ROM.

2.

Open the folder labeled “Printing Software”.

3.

Double-click the Elite XL Installer icon.

The GCC hello screen appears.

4.

Click Continue.

The Read Me file appears. Take some time and read this file. It contains
last-minute information on the installation procedure, as well as updates on
Elite XL features and compatibility issues. After reading the Read Me file,
you can print it (if a printer is available) or save it as a TeachText docu-
ment.
