Sending PostScript files to the printer

You can download PostScript files to the printer to print a PostScript program or Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) file, or to run a PostScript program to change the internal settings of the printer. You can create a PostScript file in a variety of text-editing programs or by printing any document to a file (just click the File button in the Print dialog box).

Choose Send File from the File menu.

In the Send File dialog box, select the PostScript file that you want to send to the printer. Click Add.

Click Send.

Restarting the printer

If you have any problems printing, you may need to restart the printer to clear its memory.

1Choose Restart Printer from the Utilities menu.

If you have changes you haven’t sent to the printer, a dialog box appears warning that any fonts that have been downloaded to the printer’s memory will be lost.

2To confirm that you want to restart the printer, click Restart.

When the printer lights stop blinking, the printer is ready to print.

You can achieve the same effect by physically turning the printer on and off again.

IMPORTANT If the printer is on a network, make sure no one is attempting to use the printer when you restart it. If someone’s printing job is canceled, they must resubmit it.
