Driver and communication setup

Installing the Macintosh driver

Note
Turn off any anti-virus software running on the Macintosh before
installing the Tektronix software.
A Phaser 440 printer uses the Adobe PostScript Level 2 language. To take
advantage of the Level 2 features, Tektronix developed the Tektronix Phaser
driver which appears in the Chooser, along with the LaserWriter 7.0.x driver.
The Phaser driver includes special paper sizes for each printer and TekColor
color correction adjustment options. Refer to the Phaser 440 Drivers and Utilities
Printing Reference for more details.
To install the Tektronix driver with system 6.0.7 or higher
Note Macintosh computers on a network should have a minimum of system
software 6.0.7 installed.
1. Place the Phaser Drivers and Utilities diskette (Macintosh) into the
disk drive.
2. Double-click on the Installer icon and click OK at the introductory
screen.
3.
In the Easy Install window, click the Install button.
4. Click the Restart button in the dialog box that appears.
5. Select the driver's icon and the printer in the Chooser.
LaserWriter 7.0.x and its support file (PrintMonitor) are required to use the
Tektronix driver and to print in the background. The Installer automatically
copies these files to your hard disk drive if you are using system 6.0.7 or higher.
The printer driver diskette contains an EtherTalk Zone snippet you can use to
reprogram the printer to reside in another EtherTalk zone, if necessary.
