Macintosh users

■Open the Chooser and select a supported driver, such as the LaserWriter

8.x, and your printer.

If the driver isn’t installed or properly set up with your printer, refer to

Macintosh software for instructions.

Make sure that Background Printing is turned off.

■If you are having trouble printing from the Finder in System 7.1, for example,

if the Phaser 600 printer driver dialog boxes are not opening, it may be

because the Finder doesn’t have enough allocated memory. Reinstall a

supported driver to automatically allocate enough memory for printing from

the Finder.

■For PowerMacs, you should be using the latest version of Open Transport
