Double-click on the appropriate package file and then Continue through all the prompts until the installation is complete.

Driver install has succeeded. Now we can move onto actually installing a Konica-Minolta printer.

Click on the Apple logo menu item, then System Preferences..., then Print & Scan. Click on the + symbol to add a new printer and then click on Add Other Printer or Scanner...

The Location field should automatically be populated. Click on the Print Using field so we can use specify the type of printer.

The Konica-Minolta has now been successfully installed. Only one more thing to do...

Go into another program, like your browser, and try to print a page. When the print dialog comes up, select your Konica-Minolta and then, if the details are shown, click on the Show Details button.

When the details are displayed, click on the dropdown box that shows the name of the current program...

...and then click on Output Method.

Check Account Track. In the Account Track dialog, type in your account tracking code in the Password field and check Save Settings and then Ok.

To avoid having to check Account Track every time you print, you can save all your settings as a preset. Just click on the Presets dropdown box and click on Save Current Settings as Preset... and create a new preset. For all your future printing jobs, just choose that preset and it will automatically use Account Track.

You have now succesfully installed the printer driver.
