Selecting your printer with the Chooser
After you install the printer software, you need to open the
Chooser to select your printer. You have to choose the printer
only the first time you use it or whenever you want to switch to
another printer. Your Macintosh will always print using the
last printer selected.
If you are using the serial interface, choose your printer driver
as described in the following section, “Using the serial interface
connection.” If your system is connected to an AppleTalk
network, see “Using the AppleTalk connection” on page 2-32.
Note:
If you are using a Macintosh Quadra 950 or 900, you need to choose
Compatible
in the Serial Switch dialog box before selecting your
printer from the Chooser. To open the Serial Switch dialog box, choose
Control Panel
from the Apple menu, then choose
Serial Switch
.
Using the serial interface connection
