Connecting a Macintosh to a 
LocalTalk Interface
An optional LocalTalk interface is available from your QMS vendor.
1
Turn the printer off, remove the power cord, and disconnect 
all interface cables from the printer.
2
Install the LocalTalk interface board.
Instructions for installing it are in “Interface Daughterboards” on 
page 30.
3
Connect the printer to the Macintosh and turn on the printer. 
If you’re replacing a printer already connected to a Macintosh, 
you probably already have the necessary cables. If not, contact 
your QMS vendor or a local computer store. Also, see chapter 3, 
“Technical Specifications,” for information on Macintosh printer 
cabling.
4
Install the Macintosh printer driver.
See “Macintosh Printer Drivers” in chapter 1, “Connecting the 
Printer,” of the user’s guide for information.
5
Now you’re ready to print.
See chapter 2, “Printing,” of the user’s guide for information.
