Solving printer problems

m LaserWriter Select 360, LaserWriter Pro 630, and LaserWriter Pro 810: These

printers require the latest printer software (called a driver) to print properly.
If you use one of these printers, install the LaserWriter 8.1.1 printer driver,
which is the latest LaserWriter driver, on your computer. You’ll find the
LaserWriter 8.1.1 driver, and instructions on how to install and use it, in the
Apple Extras folder on your computer’s hard disk.

m Personal LaserWriter LS, LaserWriter Select 300, and Personal LaserWriter

300: The system software installed on your computer includes a new
version (version 1.2) of the Personal LaserWriter 300 printer driver. This
driver works with all three of these printers. Do not install your older
Personal LaserWriter LS or LaserWriter Select 300 drivers; the older
printer drivers are not compatible with Power Macintosh computers.

m StyleWriter and StyleWriter II printers: The system software installed on

your computer includes a new version (version 1.2) of the StyleWriter II
printer driver. This driver works with both the StyleWriter II and the
StyleWriter printers. Do not install your older StyleWriter driver; the older
driver is not compatible with Power Macintosh computers.

If your printer is different from the ones just mentioned, its driver may not
be included on the Power Macintosh hard disk. You should install the driver
for your printer if you encounter printing problems. The following list shows
where you can find the drivers not included on the Power Macintosh hard
disk.
