Phaser 340 Color Printer
LaserWriter 8.x setup
The LaserWriter 8.x driver uses printer-specific PPDs (PostScript Printer
Description files) for information on a printer’s page sizes, printing options,
and media type options. To use the LaserWriter 8.x driver with a Phaser 340
printer, do the following steps depending on the version of the driver you
are using. If the printer is busy, it may take some time to complete this
configuration procedure; you may want to do this procedure when the
printer is idle. You only have to configure a printer once.
Note
During installation, the LaserWriter 8.x driver leaves other
versions of the LaserWriter driver intact.
