Apple 12/640PS Printer User Manual


 
Setting up for parallel port printing
Your LaserWriter 12/640 PS printer uses a standard parallel port. By default,
your printer’s parallel port is ready to receive data, and you should not need
to make any changes to either your computer’s or the printer’s parallel port
settings.
Installing the printer software for Windows 95 and Windows 3.1
As the printer administrator, you must install the printer software on each
computer that will print to the LaserWriter 12/640 PS. You can do so by using
the installation program that comes on the software disks included with the
printer.
Note: Be sure you have Windows on your computer, before installing the
LaserWriter 12/640 PS software.
To install the Windows printer software, follow these steps. These instructions
assume that you have a mouse or similar pointing device. If you do not, see
the instructions that came with Windows to find out how to perform these
steps using a keyboard.
