INSTALLING MACINTOSH PPD FILES

Considerations and Limitations

￿The TOSHIBA Macintosh PPD (PostScript Printer Description) file contains information about GL-1020- specific features and works in conjunction with the standard Macintosh LaserWriter 8 printer driver version 8.6.5 (or higher).

￿The Macintosh PPD file is compressed in the StuffIt format if

the version of the software is prior to 1.3. Copy the file to the

System Folder: Extensions: Printer Descriptions folder. The

StuffIt program must be installed on the workstation to decompress the PPD file.

￿The GL-1020 supports both LPR and AppleTalk printing from Macintosh systems.

￿Enable Macintosh printing from the LCD touch screen or by using TopAccess. Refer to Setting Up Macintosh Printing on page 157 for instructions.

￿To use LPR/LPD printing, also enable LPD printing from TopAccess.

Prerequisites

1If the TOSHIBA PPD file is not in compressed format, go to step 4. Otherwise, continue with step 2.

2Drag the PPD Stuffit file, TOSHIBA_GL-1020.sit from the TOSHIBA e-STUDIO GL-1020 Client CD-ROM to the client workstation’s desktop.
