Choosing a Printer

Selecting a Printer

Before you can choose your printer, the network (AT) version of your
EPSON printer driver must be installed on your Macintosh computer.
You can download your printer driver from EPSON’s Home Page at
http://www.epson.com.

Follow the steps below to choose a printer:

1. Open the Chooser window and click your EPSON printer’s icon.

(If two printer driver versions have been installed, select the icon
whose name ends with the (AT) suffix.)

2. If your network has more than one zone, click the zone you want.

(If your network has no zones, this box doesn’t appear.)

3. The default AXIS 1440 printer name appears in the right-hand

frame. The printer name is shown as: AXIS_,
where is the last six digits of the AXIS 1440 serial
number, and is LPT1. For example: AXIS100086_LPT1.

4. Click the printer name. (By doing so, you see if the AXIS 1440 is

correctly connected to the printer.)

5. Use the radio buttons to enable or disable background printing.

6. Close the Chooser.

Repeat this procedure for each Macintosh on the network using the
AXIS 1440. To make sure that the printer is set up correctly, print a
test page from each Macintosh.
