Description

Source

In the Source field, specify the source device that emulates this printer port:

  • Printers. You can use any of the printers connected to your Mac in your virtual machine. Select the appropriate printer from the list.
  • Output File. You can emulate the virtual machine printer port by using an output file. Choose an output file from the list or click Choose an output file and specify the path to the desired output file.
