• If you are using System 6.0.x or lower, use Apple’s Font/DA Mover
to install the Chooser into the System file of your startup disk. This desk accessory is part of your
Apple System Software.
• If you are running System 7.0.x or higher, the Chooser needs to be in the Apple Menu
Items folder in the System Folder. A copy of the Chooser is located on the system
floppy disks that came with your Macintosh. See Apple’s documentation if you need
assistance in reinstalling the Chooser.
If the LaserWriter 8 icon does not appear in the Chooser, try the following:
1. Insert the Elite 12ppm CD-ROM.
2. Run the Elite™ 12ppm Installer.
3. From the lower portion of the file installation area highlight LaserWriter 8 and
click Install.
4. Turn off QuickDraw GX.
If the name of your Elite 12ppm does not appear in the “Select a LaserWriter” scroll
box after selecting the LaserWriter 8 icon:
• Check the On Line status LED on the printer’s control panel; it should be solid.
• Check the control panel display window for an error message.
• Check LocalTalk or Ethernet (if available) network cables and connections.
• Set the printer’s control panel 8-pin Serial submenu item to LocalTalk.
• In the Chooser, make sure that the LaserWriter 8 icon is highlighted in the left scroll
box and verify that AppleTalk is Active.
• If there are zones in your AppleTalk network, make sure the zone you select in the
Chooser is the zone where the printer is located. If no zone names appear in the
Chooser, there may be a network problem. Check to see that all devices are properly
connected to the network.
■ LocalTalk problems
If your document does not print and a message appears on your Macintosh screen stating
that the printer could not be found, check the following regarding the LocalTalk network
system:
• Check the On Line status LED on the printer’s control panel; it should be solid.
• Check the control panel display window for an error message.
