Choosing a printer
You can have several output devices, such as printers, connected to your
Macintosh -- directly or by network. You select the printers and other
devices you want to use with a desk accessory called the Chooser.
1. Select Chooser from the Apple menu.
The Chooser window appears.
2. Click the icon for the type of printer you want to use.
The icons for printer types appear in the upper-left area of the Chooser. You
may have to scroll to see the printer icon you want.
3. If network zones are listed, select the zone in which you want to choose
a printer.
A list of zones appears in the lower-left area only if your Macintosh is on a
network that is linked to other networks. You may have to scroll to see the
zone name you want.
4. Select the name of the printer you want to use.
The list of printers appears in the upper-right area of the Chooser. You may
have to scroll to see the printer name you want.
Your selection takes effect immediately.
5. Click the Chooser's close box.
Choosing a directly connected printer: When you use the Chooser to select an
ImageWriter or other printer that is connected directly to your Macintosh
(not using network cables), you follow the steps above, except that you don't
select the name of a printer. Instead, you select the type of printer and
then specify which of the computer's two sockets, called ports, the printer
will use. The Chooser displays a dialog box in which you select the icon for
the port to which your ImageWriter is connected. Choose the icon that's the
same as the one above the port to which your ImageWriter is connected.
