DisplayMaker Legacy ColorMark+ - User Guide

1-4 Installing ColorMark+
To install the ColorMark+ software:
1. Install the electronic ColorMark Key on the print server.

the ColorMark+ software installed. Securely attach the
ColorMark Key to the parallel port of the print server. It will
only fit on the correct port.

program.
If you are using a ColorMark Pro 1.5G, 1G, or 8000, or
RIPStation 700/800 or 1G, go to Step 5.

ors (sometimes referred to as 16-bit color). To access this set-
ting, from the System Control Preferences setting, click
Color..., then click the Settings tab. Under Color Palette,

change and exit the settings dialog box.
