Disabling QuickDraw GX
You may want to disable QuickDraw GX when printing from some non-QuickDraw GX applications so you can use a driver such as the LaserWriter 8.x driver.

There are two ways to disable QuickDraw GX:

Method 1

  1. Open the Extensions folder inside the System Folder.

  2. Drag the QuickDraw GX extension onto the desktop.

  3. Select Restart from the Special menu.

Any desktop printers created before you disabled QuickDraw GX will have an "X" drawn through their icons. These desktop printers remain unavailable for use until QuickDraw GX is re-enabled.

Note: During installation, QuickDraw GX altered the Fonts folder inside your System Folder. If you disable QuickDraw GX, you may need to reinstall some fonts.
Method 2

  1. Select Extensions Manager in the Control Panel.

  2. Click to disable all QuickDraw GX entries, such as QuickDraw GX and QuickDraw Helper.

  3. Select Restart from the Special menu.

Any desktop printers created before you disabled QuickDraw GX will have an "X" drawn through their icons. These desktop printers remain unavailable for use until QuickDraw GX is re-enabled.

Note: During installation, QuickDraw GX altered the Fonts folder inside your System Folder. If you disable QuickDraw GX, you may need to reinstall some fonts.
