Basic printing instructions

This section provides the basic instructions for printing when setting options from the printer driver for this printer (Windows) or the Apple LaserWriter (Macintosh). If possible, you should try to set printer options from the program in which you are working or from the Print dialog box. Most Windows and Macintosh programs allow you to set the printer options this way. If a setting is not available in the program or printer driver, you must set it at the printer control panel.

To print
