Selecting an alternate PPD

This section, which only applies to Macintosh users, explains how to select an alternate PPD.

To select an alternate PPD

1Open the Chooser from the Apple menu.

2Click the LaserWriter 8 icon.

3If you are on a network with multiple zones, select the zone in the AppleTalk Zones box where the product is located.

4Click the printer name you want to use in the Select a PostScript Printer box. (Double-clicking will immediately generate the next few steps.)

5Click Setup. (This button might read Create for first-time setup.)

6Click Select PPD.

7Find the required PPD in the list and click Select. If the required PPD is not listed, choose one of the following options:

ŠSelect a PPD for a printer with similar features.

ŠSelect a PPD from another folder.

ŠSelect the generic PPD by clicking Use Generic. The generic PPD allows you to print, but limits your access to printer features.

8In the Setup dialog box, click Select, and then click OK to return to the Chooser.

Note	If you manually select a PPD, an icon might not appear next to the selected printer in the Select a PostScript Printer
	box. In the Chooser, click Setup, click Printer Info, and then click Update Info to bring up the icon.

9Close the Chooser.

Renaming the product

If you are going to rename the product, do this before selecting the product in the Chooser. If you rename the product after selecting it in the Chooser, you will have to go back into the Chooser and reselect it.

Use the Printer Name feature in the HP LaserJet Utility settings to rename the product.
