1. Make sure the ColorPASS is connected to the network and turned on.
2. Choose Chooser from the Apple menu.
You can print to the ColorPASS just as you would print to any other printer from any
application software. First, select the ColorPASS 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 ColorPASS from applications, you must select the
ColorPASS in the Chooser. Then, using the Adobe PostScript printer driver and the
correct PostScript Printer Description file (PPD), you can control many ColorPASS
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.
