PRINTING FROM A MACINTOSH
This chapter explains the procedures for printing from a Macintosh environment.
BASIC PRINTING
To use the machine as a printer for the Macintosh, the PS3 expansion kit (AR-PK1/N) must be installed and the
machine must be connected to a network. To install the PPD file and configure the printer driver settings, see "2.
INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE (FOR OPTIONS)" in the "Software setup guide".
Before printing, make sure that the correct size of paper for your document has been loaded in the machine.

• The machine name that appears in the
"Printer" menu is the name that was
entered when AppleTalk settings were
configured from the "Network Utilities"
CD-ROM. Unless the name was changed
when configuring the settings, it will be
[SCxxxxxx] (where "xxxxxx" is a sequence
of characters that varies depending on
your machine).
• The Print window varies depending on the
operating system version, the printer
driver version, and the application.
