Selecting your printer in the Chooser for Macintosh
After you have installed the printer software on your Macintosh,
you need to open the Chooser and select your printer. You must
select a printer the first time you use it or whenever you want to
switch to another printer. Your Macintosh will always print using
the last printer selected.
1. Select Chooser from the Apple menu. Then, click your
printer’s icon and the port your printer is connected to.
2. Select the appropriate Background Printing radio button to
turn background printing on or off.
With background printing on, you can use your Macintosh
while it is preparing a document for pri nting. In order to use
the EPSON Monitor3 utility to manage print jobs, background
printing must be turned on.
3. Close the Chooser.
To access the printer software, see the next sectio n.
For information on using the printer software, see “Printer
Software” in the Reference Guide in the Online Guide. If you use
your printer on a network, see “Setting up your printer as a shared
printer” on page 3-23.
