4. Click the name of the printer you want — the ports are shown as <host 

name>_<port>. 

Example: AXIS100086_LPT1.

5. Click the 

Close box. This completes the configuration and closes the Chooser.

Repeat this procedure for each Macintosh computer on the network using the 
print server.

Follow the instructions below to choose a printer:

1. Select 

Chooser from the Apple menu.

2. Click the 

LaserWriter 8.0 icon.

3. If your network has more than one zone click on the zone you want. (If your 

network does not have any zones, this box will not appear.)

4. Click the name of the printer you want — the ports are shown as <host 

name>_<port>. 

Example: AXIS100086_LPT1.

5. Click 

Setup... and then Auto Setup. If the selected printer supports bi-

directional printing and the appropriate PPD file is available, the installation 
is performed automatically and you can therefore proceed directly to step 7 
(if this is not the case, the PPD file must be selected manually, as described 
in step 6).

6. Choose the PPD file matching your printer, and click 

OK. 

If your printer does not appear in the PPD file list, please contact your printer 
vendor. Use the Generic PPD if you do not need any printer specific features.

7. Click 

OK, and then click the Close box. This completes the configuration and 

closes the Chooser.

Repeat this procedure for each Macintosh computer on the network using the 
print server.

The AXIS 540+/AXIS 560 allows the printer driver to communicate directly with 
the printer and consequently facilitates complete functional control over print 
jobs, e.g. automatic downloading of fonts not resident in the printer.

This functionality has backward compatibility with older printers and 
Macintosh computers, which means that the AXIS 540+/AXIS 560 can generate 
appropriate responses to Macintosh printer queries when the connected printer 
does not support bi-directional communication.

You simply need to print a document from the Macintosh computer to verify 
communication to the chosen printer. The basic installation can be considered 
complete if the print test is satisfactory. The AXIS 540+/AXIS 560 is now ready 
for use.
