Installing Software for Macintosh
Installing Macintosh printing software
To set up the printer as a PostScript printer, you must install the PostScript
printer description file (PPD) that corresponds to your printer and the Adobe
PostScript printer driver (version 8.5.1 supports PostScript 3) provided on
the KX-PS8100 CD-ROM Disc1. Printer drivers provide a way to
communicate information on print jobs between your applications and the
printer (and any other PostScript printer connected to your computer).
Printer drivers provide your applications with information about your printer,
such as the fonts and paper sizes available. Printer description files give
you access to all printing features of the printer driver and applications.
When you use the Adobe PS Printer installer, the printer description file is
installed automatically.
To install the Adobe PostScript printer driver:
1 Insert the KX-PS8100 CD-ROM Disc1 in your CD-ROM
drive, and then double-click
KX-PS8100 Disc1 icon, the
English folder and the Adobe PS folder.
2 Double-click the Installer icon.
3 Click [Yes] in the window that appears.
The Adobe PostScript printer driver and the PPD that corresponds
to your printer are installed.
4 Click [Restart] in the window informing you that
installation is complete.
NOTE:
• For best results any job sent to the printer should be sent using the Adobe
driver and the KX-PS8100 PPD. Provide the installer to all users who
send jobs.
