Backgrounder

for Macintosh

6

The printer driver for Macintosh provides a background print utility called the Print Backgrounder. This print utility is turned on or off through the Chooser. When the Backgrounder is turned on, it allows you to conveniently continue working in the foreground of your application while printing in the background. When Backgrounder is turned off, all print jobs are processed immediately in the foreground of your application. The Backgrounder offers many helpful features which are described further in this section.

A. INSTALLING THE BACKGROUNDER

The Backgrounder is installed by selecting the Install Background Print Utility option from within the printer driverÕs installer program. This option is NOT selected by default, so if you did not select the Backgrounder option when installing the printer driver, it is most likely not installed. To install the Backgrounder, simply go through the printer driver installation procedure described in Section 5-D making sure that the Install Background Print Utility option is selected. The Backgrounder installs into the Extensions folder of your startup drive. Once installed, Backgrounder will automatically open and close with the start and finish of each print job. To manually open Backgrounder, double-click on the Print Backgrounder icon within the Extensions folder.
