Installing Macintosh software
All the files and software you need for printing to the Colorwriter from a
Macintosh computer are included on the CD-ROM and the PSPrinter disk.
Setting up printing from a Macintosh
PostScript printer drivers provide a way to communicate information on print
jobs between your applications and the Colorwriter (and any other PostScript
printer connected to your computer).
To set up the Colorwriter as a PostScript printer, install the Adobe PostScript
Printer Driver (from the Macintosh Disk 1), or install the Apple LaserWriter 8
driver.
Adobe PSPrinter version 8.3.1 is delivered for English (North American) users,
version 8.3 for all other users. These drivers support PostScript Level 2 and
provide access to CRDs. We recommend that you use the Adobe PostScript
Printer Driver that we provide because it allows you to access all of the
Colorwriter’s features.
Installing the Adobe PostScript Printer Driver
If your system already uses Adobe PSPrinter version 8.3 or later, drag the
Colorwriter PPD file “Colorwriter LSR 2000 v2015.108” to the Printer
Descriptions folder in the Extensions folder inside the System Folder on your
startup disk. Otherwise, install the Adobe driver as described below.
The Colorwriter PPD file is found in the Printer Descriptions folder on the
CD-ROM. The full path is:
English:Printer Files:English:Printer Files:Rev 4 PPD
or
English:Printer Files:Int’l English:Printer Files:Rev 4 PPD
The files on Macintosh Disk 1 are also located in the
PSPrinter
folder on the User
Software CD in case you need to create another floppy disk. If you do create a new
disk, be sure to name it PSPrinter.
