Setting Up The Apple Laserwriter 8.3.4 Driver - Tektronix Phaser 360 User Manual

Setting up the Apple LaserWriter 8.3.4 driver

The LaserWriter 8.3.4 driver uses printer-speciÞc PPDs (PostScript Printer
Description Þles) to learn a printerÕs page sizes, printing options, and media
type options. To use the LaserWriter 8.3.4 driver with a Phaser 360 printer,
do the following steps. If the printer is busy, it may take some time to
complete this conÞguration procedure; you may want to do this procedure
when the printer is idle. You have to conÞgure a printer only once.
Note
During installation, the LaserWriter 8.3.4 driver leaves other
versions of the LaserWriter driver (such as 7.x and 6.x) intact,
but overwrites an earlier version of the LaserWriter 8 driver, if
one exists.
