(PPD/Plugin) files

of popular applications. The EX Print Server PPDs provide
information about the digital press to your application and printer
driver.
PostScript screen fonts These are the PostScript/TrueType screen fonts that correspond

Downloading printer drivers using WebTools
You can install printer drivers and printer description files from the User Software DVD or
directly from the EX Print Server with WebTools.
For more information about setting up and starting WebTools, see Utilities.
TODOWNLOAD PRINTER DRIVERS WITH WEBTOOLS
1 Start your Internet or intranet browser and type the DNS name or IP address of the
EX Print Server.
2 Click the Downloads tab.
3 Click the link for the printer drivers that you want to install (Printer Files for Mac OS X).
A file named OSX.dmg is downloaded to your desktop. The file contains a folder named
Printer Driver in a BinHex-encoded, compressed format. If your Internet browser is equipped
with an expander utility, such as StuffIt Expander, the folder decodes and decompresses
automatically.
If the Printer Driver folder does not automatically decode and decompress, double-click the
file to start the utility that performs that function.
4 Install the appropriate printer driver for your operating system.
For instructions on installing the printer driver for Mac OS X, see “Installing Mac OS X
printer drivers and printer description files” on page 8.
System requirements
For detailed system requirements, see Welcome, provided in your media pack.
SETTING UPPRINTING ON MAC OS X 8
SETTING UPPRINTING ON MAC OS X
To set up the EX Print Server as a PostScript printer on a Mac OS X computer, install
the printer driver files that correspond to your digital press. The printer driver files are
provided on the User Software DVD or can be downloaded using WebTools. Printer drivers
provide a way to communicate information about print jobs between your applications, the
EX Print Server, and the digital press.
Installing Mac OS X printer drivers and printer description files
The User Software DVD contains the following software for Mac OS X (see the OSX:Printer
Driver folder):
•OSX Installer: Installs the printer driver files required to print from Mac OS X.
•Language folders: Printer description files that are installed by OSX Installer. You do not
need to open these folders or install them manually on your computer. The appropriate
files are installed by OSX Installer.
TOINSTALL THE PRINTER DESCRIPTION FILES FOR MAC OS X
1 Quit all open applications.
2 Make sure that the Printer Setup Utility is not running on your computer.
Printer Setup Utility updates the list of available printers when it starts. If a printer description
file is added while Printer Setup Utility is running, you cannot select the associated printer
model until you restart.
3 Insert the User Software DVD into the DVD drive.
4 Open the OSX : Printer Driver folder on the User Software DVD.
5 Double-click the OSX Installer icon to start installing the printer driver.
6 Follow the on-screen instructions.
The OSX Installer installs the printer driver files that correspond to the EX Print Server.
7 When copying is complete, click Quit.
