If you use Aldus PrePrint, install the version 3.0 PPD and PDX
files in the PPDs folder in the Aldus folder in the System Folder.
Testing Macintosh Communication
You can test communication between the printer selected in the
Chooser and the Macintosh by sending a file to the printer from an
application (see your application documentation for more
information), or by printing a directory, as described here:
1.
Display a disk or folder window.
2.
From the File menu, choose Page Setup. Select paper size,
printing orientation, and any other necessary options. Then
select OK.
3.
From the File menu, choose Print Directory or Print Window.
A dialog box appears.
4.
Select the printing options you want, then click Print or OK.
(Choose the Save button to save your settings for future print
jobs.) A directory prints. (If no page prints, check chapter 9,
"Troubleshooting.")
Where to Go Now
You're now ready to print from your Macintosh.
From this point, you'll probably perform most printing tasks from
your application. For specific information, check the printing
section in your application documentation.
For information on print media types and sizes, see chapter 5, "Print
Media and Daily Operations." For information about using your
printer's color-printing features, see chapter 7 of this manual,
"Optimizing Color Output."
