Phaser 860 Color Printer

PhaserPrint Plug-in for Photoshop

PhaserPrint Plug-in for Photoshop

The PhaserPrint™ plug-in, included on the printer’s CD-ROM, operates within the
Photoshop application on Macintosh computers. With PhaserPrint, you can improve
image transfer time and gain easy access to Phaser printer features and other media
features.

Note

PhaserPrint software produces correct output only on supported Phaser printers.
If you use this plug-in with a printer not listed in the PhaserPrint dialog box, the
image may be placed incorrectly on the page, the colors may look incorrect, or
the file may not print.

To install the plug-in on the Macintosh:

From the printer’s CD-ROM, run the Installer application.

2.
