Macintosh Print Pack
When you want to print on wide-carriage or portable printers, the Apple Macintosh Print Pack utility may be all you need. It allows you to print from any Macintosh personal computer on wide-carriage (132-column) printers, and it gives you direct access to a wide range of portable ink-jet and thermal printers.
Regardless of the Macintosh model you use, you can produce large spreadsheets on computer fanfold paper with point-and-click simplicity. And if you work with a Macintosh PowerBook personal computer, you'll especially appreciate how easily you can work with a variety of portable ink-jet and thermal printers when you travel.
Each Macintosh Print Pack utility comes with the hardware and software necessary to connect your Macintosh to hundreds of models of wide-carriage and portable printers that are popular in the MS-DOS/Windows environment. And you'll find that switching between printers is as effortless as attaching a cable and clicking the mouse.
When you print from your Macintosh application, you can expect the finest-possible resolution the printer offers. And in addition to using the printer's font selection, you have the advantage of printing in any style the computer supports, and in any size-from tiny footnotes to bold display headlines.
For added versatility, Macintosh Print Pack software allows you to reduce or enlarge a document when it's printed; adjust the spacing between words on a printed page; and select colors for printing on color-capable DOS printers.
