Choosing a Printer

Selecting a Printer

The method for choosing a printer varies depending on which version
of LaserWriter printer driver you are using.

The LaserWriter 7.0 driver assumes that you use a standard Post-
Script driver, and cannot take advantage of any printer specific
features.

The LaserWriter 8.0 driver uses PPD files that contain printer
descriptions. This gives you full control over any features your
printer might have.

LaserWriter 7.0

Printer Driver

Follow the instructions below to choose a printer:

1. Select Chooser from the Apple menu.

2. Click the LaserWriter icon.

3. If your network has more than one zone, click on the zone you

want. If your network has no zones, this box does not appear.

4. Click the name of the printer you want. The default AXIS 5600

printer names are shown as: AXIS_, where
is the last six digits of the AXIS 5600 serial number,
and is LPT1, LPT2 and COM1 respectively. For example:
AXIS100086_LPT1.

5. Click the Close box. This completes the configuration and closes

the Chooser.

Repeat this procedure for each Macintosh computer on the network
using the AXIS 5600.
