Setting up unique desktop printers
|
You can create more than one desktop printer of the same physical printer. Each desktop printer can be set up with different print modes or options and given a descriptive name. This feature makes it easy to print to a specific printer with the options you want already selected. In the illustration below, a desktop printer has been created of a Phaser 600 printer with the Vivid Color color correction and the Paper media type selections.
- Create a desktop printer; see Creating a desktop printer for instructions.
- Select (highlight) a desktop printer icon. The Printing menu appears in the menu bar at the top of the Macintosh screen.
- Use the Printer Driver Defaults command in the Printing menu to select options for desktop printers; see Selecting printing options for details.
- To rename the desktop printer, highlight the icon on the desktop and type a new name. Renaming a desktop printer has no effect on the printer's name in the Chooser.
