see Appendix C, “Connecting to the Internet,” on page 79. Your computer also has
Setup Assistant application to help walk you through setting up an Internet
connection. Open System Preferences and click Network. Click the “Assist me” button to
open Network Setup Assistant.

Begin by connecting your printer and installing any software according to the
instructions that came with your printer. Next, open System Preferences and click the
Print & Fax icon. Use the Print & Fax pane to configure your PowerBook to access the
