Installing the LaserWriter 8.0 driver
Note
During installation, the LaserWriter 8.0 driver leaves other
versions of the LaserWriter driver intact, so that this driver can
co-exist with the Tektronix driver.
Refer to the LaserWriter driverÕs documentation, LaserWriter 8.0 Update
Guide, for instructions on installing the driver.
Using the LaserWriter 8.0 driver with a Phaser 220
The LaserWriter 8.0 driver uses printer-speciÞc 4.1 PPDs (PostScript printer
description Þles) for information on a printerÕs page sizes, TekColor color
corrections, and media type options. To use the LaserWriter 8.0 driver with a
Phaser 220 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 only have to conÞgure a printer
once.
