Selecting an alternate PPD

This section, which only applies to Macintosh users, explains how to select an alternate PPD.

To select an alternate PPD

1 Open the Chooser from the Apple menu.

2 Click the LaserWriter 8 icon.

3 If you are on a network with multiple zones, select the zone in the AppleTalk Zones box where the printer

is located.

4 Click the printer name you want to use in the Select a PostScript Printer box. (Double-clicking will

immediately generate the next few steps.)

5 Click Setup. (This button might read Create for first-time setup.)

6 Click Select PPD.

7 Find the desired PPD in the list and click Select. If the desired PPD is not listed, choose one of the

following options:

 Select a PPD for a printer with similar features.

 Select a PPD from another folder.

 Select the generic PPD by clicking Use Generic. The generic PPD allows you to print, but limits your

access to printer features.

8 In the Setup dialog box, click Select, and then click OK to return to the Chooser.

Note If you manually select a PPD, an icon might not appear next to the selected printer in the Select a

PostScript Printer box. In the Chooser, click Setup, click Printer Info, and then click Update Info to bring

up the icon.

9 Close the Chooser.
