Selecting a LaserWriter driver, version 7.x
Before you perform this procedure, ask your network administrator in what EtherTalk Phase and AppleTalk zone your printer is located, if any, and the name of your DocuPrint printer or virtual printer queue.
1.From the Apple menu, click [Chooser].
2.Click the LaserWriter icon from the printer icons in the upper left box of the Chooser dialog box.
3.If your network is configured to include AppleTalk print zones, click the zone in which your DocuPrint printer is located.
NOTE: Depending on the operating system version you are using, you may or may not see the AppleTalk zones listed on the Chooser dialog. If the zones are not listed, skip this step.
4.Click the name of the DocuPrint printer or virtual printer you want to use.
5.Because you use AppleTalk to print to the DocuPrint printer, make sure the AppleTalk option is set to [Active].
6.If you want to perform operations during printing, set the Background Printing option to [On].
NOTE: Once background printing is on, it remains in effect whenever you print until it is turned off. You may notice that some operations are slower with Background Printing set to [On].
7.Close the Chooser dialog box by clicking the box in the upper left corner of the menu window.
8.If you changed your destination printer, click [OK] when you see the following message:
“You have changed your current printer. Please choose “Page Setup...” in all of the open applications.”
You are now ready to send documents to the DocuPrint printer.
