Getting Macintosh users started using the printer

As soon as you connect the printer to the network, it’s ready to use. In preparing to print on it, Macintosh users follow the same basic steps that you did to install the software and set up the printer. Each user

minstalls the printer software and fonts on the Macintosh

mselects and sets up the printer from the Chooser

Instructions for users

Chapter 6 explains to users how to install the software from the disks that came with the printer.

In addition, you’ll need to give users information specific to your network:

mthe name of the AppleTalk zone on which the printer is located

mthe name you gave the printer if you renamed it with the Apple Printer Utility

Software for users

If you’d prefer not to pass around the software disks, you can place the software on a server, as explained in the next section. If you prefer, you can of course install the software on each user’s computer yourself.
