CREATING A DESKTOP PRINTER
369
Creating a desktop printer
QuickDraw GX requires you to create desktop printers for printing. Depending on
the type of application you are using, printing is as easy as dragging a document
onto a desktop printer icon.
NOTE
If you want to rename the printer listed in the Chooser, do so before creating any
desktop printers. If you rename the printer in the Chooser, any desktop printers
referring to that printer will not work, and must be removed to the Trash and
recreated. See Changing the pr
inter’s name from a Macintosh for instructions on using
the LaserWriter Utility to rename the printer.
1 Select Chooser from the Apple menu.
2 Click the Phaser 600 GX printer driver icon on the left side of the Chooser.
A list appears with the printers available on your network. (If the printer driver
icon does not appear, Restart your Macintosh, and repeat the printer driver
installation procedure; also, check the cable connections on your computer
and printer.)
