occurs. It indicates what type of error has occurred and offers you
a possible solution. It closes automatically once the problem is

will not disappear even after the problem is cleared. To close the
box you need to click Close.

Setting for a USB Connection

If the printer is connected to your computer via a USB port, you
will not be able to select the printer from the Chooser. You will
have to launch the Apple Desktop Printer Utility and register the
printer as a Desktop Printer. The Desktop Printer Utility is
automatically installed when you install the Adobe PostScript
printer driver. The Desktop Printer is created through the
following procedure:
Note:
When printing via the USB port from a Power Macintosh running
Mac0S 8.6 or 9.x, the printer must be set to handle ASCII data. To
specify this setting, select Print from the File menu of the application
that you are using, and then select the name of the application from
the options available in the Print dialog box. On the setup option
page that appears, select ASCII for the data format setting. The
actual setting name varies by application, but is often called
Encoding or Data.
For best results, you should connect the printer directly to the
computer's USB port. If you must use multiple USB hubs, we
recommend that you connect the printer to the first-tier hub.
