C.THE CHOOSER

The Chooser is a Desk Accessory in the Apple menu. Before you can use the printer, you need to select the CD Color Printer III driver using the Chooser. This instructs your Macintosh to send print jobs to the CD Color Printer III instead of to some other printer you may already have connected to your system. Refer to the following steps to select the CD Color Printer III driver:

1.Select Chooser from the Apple menu.

2.The Chooser displays an icon for all the printer drivers installed in the System Folder. Among these, you should see the icon for the CD Color Printer III driver you just installed. If you do not see the icon, go through the installation procedure again making sure the Install driver and prefs option is selected. Once you locate the CD Color Printer III icon, click on the icon to select it.

3.Select either the Modem or Printer Port to indicate to which port the serial interface cable was connected. If the Printer port is selected, AppleTalk should remain inactive while printing unless you are using AppleTalk through your Ethernet port. AppleTalk does not apply when printing with the Modem port selected.

NOTE: If you have a USB-to-parallel cable connected to the printer, CD Color Printer III should show up in the Chooser also; Select this to print through the USB-to-parallel cable. For this to work properly you must have MacOS 8.6 or higher. Contact the printer manufacturer for

alist of currently-supported and approved USB-to-parallel cable manufacturers. Printer needs to be connected and ON for USB-to- parallel to show in Chooser.
