Chapter 3

Printing

This chapter explains how to print documents on a Personal LaserWriter 300 connected to your own Macintosh, to share the printer with other users on a network, and to use shared printers connected to other computers on the network.

More printing instructions can be found in the manuals for your applications, such as word processing programs. These programs may include additional printing controls.

Before you use the printer, you should have installed the software as described in Chapter 1, and installed a toner cartridge and paper cassette as shown in Chapter 2.

Turning on the printer

One of the first things you will notice about your Personal LaserWriter 300 is that it has no power on/off switch. As soon as the printer is plugged into an outlet, its power is on and the printer is in a standby state. There is no wait for the printer to warm up.

The Personal LaserWriter 300 is equipped with an energy conservation mode, an automatic on/off feature that conserves energy by shutting off most of the printer’s functions when they are not in use. The printer remains on standby.

When the printer detects something to be printed, it “wakes up” and goes to full power. After printing your document, the printer automatically returns to standby.

As long as the printer is plugged in, it will be on standby. While on standby, the printer’s Ready/In Use status light (marked with the icon U) glows steadily. When you send the printer something to be printed, the light will flash and you will hear a fan come on.

The Personal LaserWriter 300 is intended to be plugged in and on standby continuously. There is no need to unplug it, except for maintenance or moving. When it is on standby the printer consumes very little energy—less than 10 watts, about the same amount as a night-light.
