IMPORTANT

If you try to print a file using a PostScript printer driver for a

non-PostScript printer, and the preferences are set to Epson, your file will not
be printed. Instead, the file will be moved to a folder called “Spooler
Rejected” in the Mac OS. To print the file, choose the proper printer driver in
the PC environment and try again.

Note: Data sent to the LPT1 port is automatically routed to the printer
selected in the Chooser in the Mac OS. There is no actual parallel port on
the DOS-compatible Macintosh.

AppleShare Print Server

Do not install the AppleShare Print Server software in your DOS-compatible
Macintosh, because this software causes conflicts with the PC Print Spooler.
You can, however, connect your DOS-compatible Macintosh to a network that
uses an AppleShare Print Server.

Setting preferences in the PC Print Spooler

You can set preferences in the PC Print Spooler to control a variety of
print functions.

To choose your Print Spooler settings, follow these steps:

1

In the Macintosh environment, open the Extensions folder inside the System Folder.

2

Open the PC Print Spooler icon.
