7. Make sure that the product is turned on and connected to the computer with a certified USB cable.
NOTE: The use of non-certified USB cables can lead to connectivity problems. Only cables
certified by the USB Implementor's Forum (
http://www.usb.org/) should be used with this product.
8. Shortly afterwards, a print queue is created automatically for your printer.
Sharing the product
If your computer is connected to a network, you can make your directly connected product available to
other computers on the same network.
1. Double-click the System Preferences icon on the Dock menu bar on your desktop.
2. Under Mac OS X 10.4, enable printer sharing by going to Sharing > Services > Printer
Sharing.
Under later versions of Mac OS X, go to Sharing, select Printer Sharing, and then check the
printer(s) that you want to share.
3. Your product now automatically appears in the list of shared printers displayed by any other
computer running Mac OS and connected to your local network.
Please bear in mind the following considerations.
Any other users wishing to share your product must install the printer software on their own
computers.
Anyone sharing your directly connected product will be able to send print jobs, but will not be
able to receive information from the product—which affects alerts, status reports, paper
management, administration and troubleshooting.
The PCL3GUI (raster) driver can drive a shared printer between different versions of Mac OS, but
the PostScript driver does not support printer sharing between Mac OS X 10.4 and Mac OS X
10.5 or 10.6. It does support printer sharing between Mac OS X 10.5 and 10.6.
You may find that sharing your directly connected product with other users will slow down your
computer unacceptably.
TIP: The best way to share the product over a network is to connect the product not to any computer,
but to the network. See
Connect a computer to the product by network (Mac OS) on page 20.
