If you're replacing a PostScript printer, you can probably start printing

now with the printing software already in place. Refer to your applica-

tion documentation for instructions on sending documents to the

printer.

However, if you want to be able to use all your printer's special fea-

tures (like collation, 600x600 dpi and 1200x1200 dpi printing), or if

you've never printed to a PostScript printer before, we recommend

you take a few minutes to make sure you have the following printing

software installed:

 A PostScript printer driver

 Printer description files (if you use QuarkXPress 3.3 or later,

Adobe PageMaker, or Adobe PhotoShop)

See the of chapter 3, “Connecting to a PC, in the

Getting Started

for

details on installing printing software.
