2-1 Printing from applications

You can print to the iR C2100/2100S just as you would print to any other
printer from any application software. First, select the iR C2100/2100S as
the current printer in the Chooser, and then print the file from within the
application.
Another way to print from a Mac OS computer is to download PostScript,
Encapsulated PostScript (EPS), or Portable Document Format (PDF) files
using Fiery Downloader. Basic instructions are provided at the end of this
chapter.
Printing from applications
Before you can print to the iR C2100/2100S from applications, you must
select the iR C2100/2100S in the Chooser. Then, using the Adobe PostScript
printer driver and the correct PostScript Printer Description file (PPD), you
can control many iR C2100/2100S printing features by specifying job
settings from print dialog boxes.
For information on achieving the best printing results from specific
applications, see the Color Guide.

a different media type is selectable from the Media Type print option.
