Apple 12/640PS manual Removing the desktop printing software, Making changes to the printer setup

Removing the desktop printing software

The desktop printing software uses both the Desktop PrintMonitor and the PrintMonitor software. The Desktop PrintMonitor requires 200-400K bytes more free system memory in addition to the memory required by the PrintMonitor. If you don’t want to use the desktop printing software, you can remove it.

To remove desktop printing software:

1Restart your computer with the extensions off by holding down the Shift key and choosing Restart from the Special menu. Hold the Shift key down until the message “Extensions off” appears or until your normal desktop appears.

2Drag the following files from the Extensions folder to the Trash: m Desktop PrintMonitor

m Desktop Printer Menu m Desktop Printer Spooler

m Desktop Printer Extension

3If you have Control Strip installed on your system, drag the Printer Selector file to the Trash.

4Restart your computer.

Making changes to the printer setup

1Choose the Chooser from the Apple (K) menu.

If you don’t see the LaserWriter 8 icon, scroll through the window.
