Software Installation – Macintosh

Utility Software

The distribution diskette also contains two software utilities. The ﬁrst,

NB Handler, is used to communicate with the GPIB interface card for use with Nikon

LS-3510AF scanners or CP-3000 printers with a GPIB interface. Eject Coolscan Film

is a simple software application for ejecting the slide inserted in Coolscan scanners only.

This application has no menu. It will locate Coolscan, send the E

then quit.

Macintosh System 6.0.5 (System 7.1 is recommended) must be installed on the

computer before attempting to run the Nikon Installer software. The destination disk

drive, the drive on which you will be loading the scanning software, must have enough

disk space to accommodate the Nikon Scanner plug-in and Nikon Control. If you are

planning on using the plug-in with speciﬁc third-party applications, make sure that the

application is already installed on the destination drive before installing the plug-in.

Insert the backup copy of the distribution diskette into an available ﬂoppy disk

drive. The disk should open automatically to the top-left corner of the screen, revealing

its contents, shown in Figure 2.1.
