Macintosh Printing Software
If you're replacing a PostScript printer, you can probably start printing
now with the printing software already in place. Refer to your applica-

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

Macintosh Utilities
n
A PostScript printer driver
n
Application-specific printer files

start-up page, rename the printer, download fonts, print font samples,
and manage hard disks. Many of the procedures described in this
manual involve using Macintosh Utilities. Check the main Readme file
in the CD-ROM root directory to find the location on the CD-ROM,
and then use the Readme file directory for installation instructions.
Installing Macintosh Printer Drivers

a few minutes to load the following software from the Macintosh disks
