SETTING UP PRINTING ON MAC OS X 8
SETTING UP PRINTING ON MAC OS X
To set up the EX Print Server as a PostScript printer on a Mac OS X computer, install
the printer driver files that correspond to your digital press. The printer driver files are
provided on the User Software DVD or can be downloaded using WebTools. Printer drivers
provide a way to communicate information about print jobs between your applications, the
EX Print Server, and the digital press.
Installing Mac OS X printer drivers and printer description files
The User Software DVD contains the following software for Mac OS X (see the OSX : Printer
Driver folder):
•
OSX Installer: Installs the printer driver files required to print from Mac OS X.
•
Language folders: Printer description files that are installed by OSX Installer. You do not
need to open these folders or install them manually on your computer. The appropriate
files are installed by OSX Installer.
