Recommended Printers for MAC OS X 9.1
"rwap" wrote in message ups.com... Can anyone recommend some low cost printers which will work with the MAC OS X 9.1 - we are looking for a colour inkjet - preferably a HP - don't mind finding a second hand printer, so long as we know which ones are compatible. For used pritners the following have downloadable drivers for MAC 9.x: DeskJet 3400 series DeskJet 3740 series DeskJet 5550 DeskJet 5650 DeskJet 5740 DeskJet 6127 DeskJet 6540 DeskJet 6840 Of the list the DeskJet 6540 and 6840 are the better printers: faster, larger cartridges and support for automatic two-sided printing. The 6127 is also a sturdy printer but is older. Maybe the current DeskJet 6940 with http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/g...reg_R1002_USEN driver. You might ask in the HP forums at http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/f...categoryId=220 and/or http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/f...categoryId=415 about what works in current printers. http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/g...reg_R1002_USEN has a list of support for the HP Business Inkjet models, which are higher end printers.

Recommended Printers for MAC OS X 9.1
Can anyone recommend some low cost printers which will work with the
MAC OS X 9.1 - we are looking for a colour inkjet - preferably a HP - don't mind finding a second hand printer, so long as we know which ones are compatible. I realise that the printer ideally needs a USB connection as there appears to be a lack of drivers for USB-parallel convertors. Open to suggestions Rich www.internetbusinessangels.com |

Recommended Printers for MAC OS X 9.1
Epson printers have always been friendly to Mac users. Epson has
finally dropped their support for OS version 9.1 (going with OS X) with the introduction of all their newest printers within the last year. However, almost all of the older printers are supported by OS 9.1. Inexpensive second-hand 4-color ink printers (for home office) a Epson C84 Epson C86 Inexpensive second-hand 6-color ink printers (for photo printing) a Epson Stylus Photo R200 Epson Stylus Photo R300 Epson Stylus Photo R320 Royce Bair Tips, news, reviews and resources... http://www.InkjetNEWSandTIPS.com/ rwap wrote: Can anyone recommend some low cost printers which will work with the MAC OS X 9.1 - we are looking for a colour inkjet - preferably a HP - don't mind finding a second hand printer, so long as we know which ones are compatible.

Regards, Bob Headrick, MS MVP Printing/Imaging Thanks for all the offers - we have found a HP Deskjet 895 CXi which appears to be compatible. Not the best HP but at least we can find a couple in good working condition. I prefer Epson personally, but then HP can at least work with compatible inks - Epsons tend to have a habit of clogging the print heads if you're not careful with inks Rich www.internetbusinessangels.com |
