Don't forget ColorSync!
Authored by: betatest on Mar 16, '02 01:39:44PM

What is mentioned above works particularily well. The only caveat I have found is that generally, printing over AppleTalk from my Pismo is _extremely_ slow, but it works. (I tried to print to a ColorPass printer and found it faster to RIP a PDF and print it on a (gasp) Windoze machine hosting the RIP software.)

BUT, when setting up a colour printer with an (OS 9) PPD file, don't forget tocopy the ColorSync profiles to your (or System) library (/Library/Colorsync/Profiles). This allows the PostScript printer driver to access any colour-calibration already available for your printer. Very useful in the Epson 850 article above (I had to do the same thing - and it works great).
