The product includes the following software for Macintosh computers:
● PPDs for Mac OS 9.x and Mac OS X (10.1 and later)
● PDEs for Mac OS X only (10.1 and later)
HP LaserJet PPDs
In Mac OS 9.x, postscript printer definition (PPD) files for the HP Color LaserJet 4650 are
installed to the Printer Descriptions folder, which is in the Extensions folder within the System
folder. In Mac OS X, the PPDs are installed in Library/Printers/PPDs/Contents/Resources:
<lang>.lproj where <lang> is the appropriate localized folder.
PPDs, in combination with the driver, provide access to the product features and allow the
computer to communicate with the product. An installation program for the PPDs is provided on
the printing software CD.
For Mac OS 9.x, the Apple LaserWriter 8 driver must be installed to use the PPD file. Use the
Apple LaserWriter 8 driver that came with your Macintosh. For Mac OS X, use Print Center to
print.
PDEs
Printer Dialog Extensions (PDEs) are code plug-ins (for Mac OS X only, 10.1 and later) that
provide access to product features, such as number of copies, duplexing, and quality settings.
