PhaserPrint Plug-in for Photoshop

PhaserPrint Plug-in for Photoshop

The PhaserPrint™ plug-in, included on the printer’s CD-ROM, operates within the Photoshop application on Macintosh computers. With PhaserPrint, you can improve image transfer time and gain easy access to Phaser printer features and other media features.

Note

PhaserPrint software produces correct output only on supported Phaser printers. If you use this plug-in with a printer not listed in the PhaserPrint dialog box, the image may be placed incorrectly on the page, the colors may look incorrect, or the file may not print.

Installing the plug-in

Compatibility requirements:

■Photoshop 3.0 and higher

■System 7.6.1 and higher

To install the plug-in on the Macintosh:

1.From the printer’s CD-ROM, run the Installer application.

2.Select either Easy Install or Custom Install.

3.When performing a custom install, select PhaserPrint plug-in for Photoshop.

4.Click the Install button. The file is then installed in the Photoshop application’s folder on your computer’s hard disk.

Using the plug-in

1.Specify the default printer:

a.Open the Chooser.

b.Select a PostScript driver (such as the Apple LaserWriter 8).

c.Select your printer.

PhaserPrint software works like a printer driver, and prints to the printer you selected in the Chooser.

2.Open Photoshop and open an image file.
