Macintosh Computer — Hardware
and Software
The following sections list the required and optional computer hardware
and software needed to run the Kodak Driver for use with Adobe Photo-
shop Software on an Apple Macintosh computer.
IMPORTANT: Refer to the READ ME file on the supplied software driver diskette
for additional details or revisions to these requirements.
Required Computer Hardware
Apple Macintosh computer product lines that support 32-Bit QuickDraw,
with at least 8 megabytes (MB) of random access memory (RAM). For
faster acquisition of an image from the DCS 465 Camera Back to the
computer, we strongly recommend a minimum of 32 MB of RAM.
NOTE: Adobe Photoshop 3.0, when run on a Power Macintosh, needs a mini-
mum of 16 MB of RAM (including at least 11 MB of RAM in addition to the
memory used by the operating system), and recommends 24 MB of RAM. We
recommend at least 48 MB of RAM for the fastest acquire times on a Power
Macintosh.
Hard disk, 160 megabyte (MB) minimum. We recommend 250 MB or
greater. For some operations Adobe Photoshop requires three to five times
the size of the file in combined hard disk space and RAM. DCS 465
Camera Back color images are approximately 18 MB and monochrome
images are approximately 6 MB. Therefore you may need large amounts
of both RAM and free hard disk to acquire and process an image.
IMPORTANT: Use only the supplied cables; do not use substitute cables, except
that an additional cable is required if you will use the DCS 465 Camera Back as
the only external device attached to a Macintosh IIfx or PowerBook computer. (If
you are using a Macintosh IIfx or PowerBook computer, refer to chapter 4.)
