The printing system software includes the following components:

PostScript® Printer Description (PPD) files

The PPDs, in combination with the Apple PostScript printer drivers, provide access to
printer features. An installation program for the PPDs and other software is provided on
the CD-ROM that came with the printer. Use the Apple LaserWriter 8 printer driver that
comes with the computer.

driver. Use the illustrated screens to select printer features and complete the following
tasks with the printer:

Name the printer.

Assign the printer to a zone on the network.

Assign an IP to the printer.

Download files and fonts.

Configure and set the printer for IP or AppleTalk printing.

NOTE

The HP LaserJet Utility is not currently supported for OS X, but the utility is supported for the
Classic environment.
