Installing Macintosh printing system software for networks

This section describes how to install Macintosh printing system software. The printing
system software supports Apple Mac OS 9.x and later and Mac OS X V10.1 and later.

The printing system software includes PostScript Printer Description files (PPDs). PPDs, in
combination with the Apple LaserWriter 8 printer driver, provide access to the MFP features
and allow the computer to communicate with the MFP. An installation program for the PPDs
and other software is provided on the CD-ROM that came with the MFP. In addition, use the
Apple LaserWriter 8 printer driver that comes with the computer.

To install printer drivers in Mac OS 9.x

1. Connect the network cable between the HP Jetdirect print server and a network port.
