Macintosh printing-system software
The printing-system software for Macintosh is composed of an HP-created postscript (PS) printer
definition file (PPD) and a Printer Dialog Extension (PDE) file that work together with the Macintosh OS
printing system. These files are used by the Macintosh OS printing system to determine default printer-
driver settings and to allow the user to select between the various print options and settings. An HP-
supplied Macintosh printer configuration utility is provided, which allows the user to access the
HP Embedded Web Server (HP EWS) for additional configuration and product status monitoring. The
following are provided on the printing-system CD:
●
The HP LaserJet Installer for Macintosh
●
Install notes (Readme file)
The following components are installed by the HP LaserJet Installer for Macintosh:

HP LaserJet P3010 Series PPD
A postscript printer description (PPD) file is a text file that contains keywords and other information to
specify printer features, options, and settings. PPD files are created by printer vendors for a specific
postscript printer or printer family. PPD files are created by printer vendors to describe the set of printer
features available for their postscript printers. On the Macintosh, PPD files provide all the information
necessary to describe a postscript printer’s features, including options and default settings. They also
contain the postscript code used to invoke those features.
