You won't find it in the chooser, and I don't know for sure the name
of the utility anymore and I no longer have a computer old enough to
look it up for you, but there will be a program called either
"Laserwriter utility" or something similar to that.
You choose the printer in the chooser, run this program, then you can
read and set all kinds of settings that live on the printer such as
its postscript name.
The 360 is a very nice printer btw.
