The Direct to Port Mode option is selected by default. In most instances, this
option allows the spooler to send data to the printer at its optimum speed. If,
however, you experience problems when printing with this option selected, simply
deselect it and try your print job again.
The Job Queue tab appears only when a print job is being sent to the printer. This
tab tells you the name and status of each job in the queue and shows you the order
in which the jobs will print if you have sent multiple jobs to the printer. A control
button is also provided which allows you to delete every job listed in the queue. To
delete the job currently being printed, simply select the Cancel Print button under
the Current Job tab.
D. INSTALLING THE MACINTOSH PRINTER DRIVER
The printer can be used with virtually any Macintosh software application
program. This is accomplished by installing what is called a Òprinter driver.Ó The
printer driver is simply a diskette with software on it which gives the printer all the
information needed for printing. Locate the printer driver diskette labeled for use
with Macintosh and refer to the following steps to install it. After youÕve installed
the driver, put the driver diskette away in a safe place for possible future use. For
details on all printer driver options, refer to Part F of this section.
NOTE:
This section of the OperatorÕs Manual assumes that you are already familiar with the
Macintosh operating system and know how it operates. If you are not yet familiar with it,
consult the appropriate documentation to become familiar with the basics before proceeding.
1. Insert the printer driver diskette labeled for use with Macintosh into your
computerÕs disk drive. The Card Printer Installer automatically opens.
2. Click on the READ ME file(s) to get the latest information on the driver and the
installation process. When you are finished reading, select Quit from the file
menu.
3. Double-click on the Card Printer Installer icon.
4. When the Installer window appears, select the options you would like to the
installer program to install. In most instances, the default selections will suffice.
For a description of each of these options, refer to the notes found in the box
directly above these options (use the up and down arrows to scroll through the
notes). Once the desired options are selected, click on Install. The appropriate
files will automatically install onto your computer. An alert box will then
display indicating that installation is complete.
5. Click on OK to exit the installer. Driver installation is now complete.
