NOTE: The Applications folder can generally be reached by double-clicking on the Macintosh HD icon on the

desktop.

NOTE: silex print servers are also compatible with the Macintosh TCP/IP Printer option in the Print Center as long as
you have a valid IP Address configured (refer to the section “Configuring your print server”). Enter the IP Address of
the print server for the “Printer’s Address”, and make sure the “Use default queue on server” option is checked, and
select your correct “Printer Model”.
