19 19Using your MFC with a Macintosh®

Setting up your USB-equipped Apple® Macintosh® G3, G4 or iMac™ or iBook™ with Mac OS 8.5 - 9.2 or Mac OS X v.10.1

Before you can connect the MFC to your Macintosh®, you must buy a USB cable that is not longer than 6 feet (1.8 metres). Do not connect the MFC to a USB port on a key board or a non-powered USB hub.

The features supported by the MFC will depend on the operating system you are using. The chart below shows which features are supported.
