Setting up to print with Macintosh computers
The first step for setting up an infrared printer is creating a Desktop Printer icon using the Desktop Printer Utility. By default, the Desktop Printer Utility is located in the Apple Extras/Apple LaserWriter folder on the hard drive.
Printer IR will not be an option if the Infrared Control Panel and extenstion are not active. In addition, the infrared print capability is possible only with the HP LaserWriter version 8.6 driver or later.
1.Launch the Desktop Utility.
2.Select Printer IR (Infrared) and click OK.
3.Change PostScript Printer Description (PPD) File to match the printer.
4.On the File menu, select Save.
5.Enter a name and location for the desktop printer icon and click OK.
Note | Once the icon is on the desktop (or saved elsewhere), printer options |
| need to be manually configured. This step is essentially the same as |
| selecting Configure after setting up a printer in the Chooser. To set the |
| options, highlight the Desktop Printer icon and select Change Setup |
| from the Printing menu. |
