Enabling and disabling SysStart Job execution
|
|
The Set SysStart Job (SYSTART.PS) file enables automatic execution of a file named SysStart (if one is found) on a hard disk connected to the printer's SCSI port, each time the printer is turned on or reset. The SysStart job is similar to an Init file; it executes automatically each time the printer is turned on.

Macintosh users
- Refer to Macintosh software for instructions on installing the printer's utility files.
- Select the appropriate printer in the Chooser.
- Locate the LaserWriter Utility in the PhaserTools folder on your hard disk, and double-click its icon to start the application.

- Use the Set SysStart Job file to enable automatic execution of the SysStart job.
- Use the No SysStart Job file to disable automatic execution of the SysStart job.
- At the prompt Save PostScript output as: you are asked for a file name for saving printer output. Use either the default name given in the edit box or type a new name.
- Click Save to send the file to the printer.
- If no output is returned by the printer, the LaserWriter Utility displays a dialog box; click OK to continue.
If output is returned by the printer, you won't see this dialog box; check your hard disk for the file the utility created for the printer's output.

- Locate the files in the PHSR600 subdirectory, inside the PHSRTOOL directory created on your hard disk by the installer application.
- Select one of the following files:
- Use the SYSTART.PS file to enable automatic execution of the SysStart job.
- Use the NOSYSTRT.PS file to disable automatic execution of the SysStart job.
- Use one of the following methods to send the desired file to the printer:
- PC users: Use the DOS COPY command to send the file to the printer. (Windows 3.1 users can also use the Copy command in the File Manager.)
- Workstation users: Send a file to the printer as you would any PostScript file.
Front panel
You can also control SysStart Job execution from the printer's front panel.
