This completes the installation of the printer software. You now
need to select the printer driver as described in the next section.

If you are not able to print after a Custom Install, perform the Easy
Install installation to copy all necessary files to your computer.

If you are connecting two or more printers of the same model
using AppleTalk, and you want to rename the printer, see the
Network Guide

Selecting the printer when it is connected via a USB
connection

If the printer is connected to your computer via a USB port, you
will not be able to select the printer from the Chooser. You will
have to launch the Apple Desktop Printer Utility and register the
printer as a Desktop Printer. The Desktop Printer Utility is
automatically installed when you install the Adobe PostScript
printer driver. The Desktop Printer is created through the
following procedure:

Note:
❏ When printing via the USB port from a Power Macintosh running

Mac 0S 8.6 or 9.x, the printer must be set to handle ASCII data. To
specify this setting, select Print from the File menu of the application
that you are using, and then select the name of the application from
the options available in the Print dialog box. On the setup option
page that appears, select ASCII for the data format setting. The
actual setting name varies by application, but is often called
Encoding or Data.

❏ For best results, you should connect the printer directly to the

computer’s USB port. If you must use multiple USB hubs, we
recommend that you connect the printer to the first-tier hub.

❏ Manual duplex printing cannot be performed if the printer is

connected to the Macintosh via a USB port. In this case, do not select
Print on Both Sides on the Layout setup option page in the Print
dialog box.
