OS 9 Step 2. Creating a Desktop Printer

USB Connection

a Plug one end of the USB cable into the Macintosh and the other into

the printer’s USB port.

b Locate the Desktop Printer Utility.

If you cannot locate it on your Macintosh hard disk, it can be found on
your Macintosh’s system CD-ROM.

c Double-click the Desktop Printer Utility icon to open the application.

The first window prompts you to select the type of desktop printer you
would like to create.

d Select Printer (USB), and select

OK

.

e Choose the Change button in the PostScript Printer Description sec-

tion. In the resulting window, select the PagePro 9100 PPD, and
choose Select.

f Choose the Change button in the USB Printer Selection section. In the

resulting window, select the PagePro 9100, and click

OK

.

EtherTalk Connection

a You can connect via Ethernet in either of two ways:

Plug one end of a crossover Ethernet cable into the Macintosh and
the other into the printer’s Ethernet port.
Use Ethernet patch cables and an Ethernet hub. Plug one end of
each patch cable into the hub, then plug the other end of one into
the Macintosh and the other end of the second into the printer’s
Ethernet port.

b Open the Chooser and select LaserWriter.

c When your printer boots up, it finds a default zone. If your network has

more than one zone and you want to use a different zone, use the
Interface/Ethernet/Ethertalk/Name and Zone menus on the printer
control panel to specify the new zone.

The Name and Zone menus allow you to identify 1 zone with a
name up to 32 characters long. (Up to 16 characters can be
entered in each of the two menus). You cannot use these two
menus to identify two zones. Trailing spaces are not considered
part of the zone name. All standard printable ASCII characters are
valid except the @ and ' symbols. The names are case sensitive.

d Choose Create and then Set-Up.
