SETTING UP PRINTING ON MAC OS X

To set up the EX Print Server as a PostScript printer on a Mac OS X computer, install the printer driver files that correspond to your digital press. The printer driver files are provided on the User Software DVD or can be downloaded using WebTools. Printer drivers provide a way to communicate information about print jobs between your applications, the EX Print Server, and the digital press.

Installing Mac OS X printer drivers and printer description files

The User Software DVD contains the following software for Mac OS X (see the OSX:Printer

Driver folder):

OSX Installer: Installs the printer driver files required to print from Mac OS X.

Language folders: Printer description files that are installed by OSX Installer. You do not need to open these folders or install them manually on your computer. The appropriate files are installed by OSX Installer.

TO INSTALL THE PRINTER DESCRIPTION FILES FOR MAC OS X

1Quit all open applications.

2Make sure that the Printer Setup Utility is not running on your computer.

Printer Setup Utility updates the list of available printers when it starts. If a printer description file is added while Printer Setup Utility is running, you cannot select the associated printer model until you restart.

3Insert the User Software DVD into the DVD drive.

4Open the OSX:Printer Driver folder on the User Software DVD.

5Double-click the OSX Installer icon to start installing the printer driver.

6Follow the on-screen instructions.

The OSX Installer installs the printer driver files that correspond to the EX Print Server.

7When copying is complete, click Quit.
