Testing Macintosh Communication
You can check communication between the printer selected in the
Chooser and the Macintosh by sending a file to the printer from an
application (see your application documentation for more information)
or by printing a directory, as described here:
1 Display a disk or folder window.
2 Set up page information.
Choose Page Setup from the File menu. Select paper size, print-
ing orientation, and any other necessary options. Then select OK.
3 Print a directory or a window.
a Choose Print Directory or Print Window from the File menu. A
dialog box appears.
b Select the printing options you want; then click OK. If no page
prints, check chapter 6, “Troubleshooting,” of the Operation
guide.
You're now ready to print from your Macintosh.
From this point, you'll probably perform most printing tasks from your
application. For specific information, check the printing section in your
application documentation.
For information on print media types and sizes, see chapter 2, “Print
Media,” in the Reference guide.
