Printing with EPSON Stylus RIP for Macintosh

Now you’re ready to print a PostScript document from the 

print server or a client Macintosh. See the following section for 

printing instructions.

To make starting Stylus RIP easy and to allow you to drag and drop 

PostScript files for printing, create an alias of the Stylus RIP Server 

program on your desktop. Click the Stylus RIP Server icon and 

select Make Alias from the File menu. Then drag the alias icon to 

your desktop. See page 2-15 for instructions on drag and drop 

printing.

Printing from an Application

When you want to print PostScript documents, you must first 

start the Stylus RIP Server software, and then leave it running. 

In most situations, you should leave it active until you shut 

down your Macintosh.

Note:

To set up the Stylus RIP Server software so it starts automatically 

each time you turn on or restart your Macintosh, see page 2-14.

Then, when you send a PostScript print job from your 

application to the Stylus RIP Server, it processes the PostScript 

file into a raster image and prints it on your printer. If you send 

the job from a client Macintosh on a network, the Stylus RIP 

Client software sends it to the print server Macintosh for 

processing.

Caution:

Before printing from an application, make sure the Stylus RIP 

Server software is set up and running.

If you’re printing from a client system, you don’t need to have 

the Stylus RIP software on your Macintosh. Just make sure 

Stylus RIP is running on the server and 

AdobePS

 is selected in 

the client Macintosh’s Chooser before you print. See page 2-5 

for instructions.
