Macintosh System Requirements

For wireless printing with the EPSON Stylus C84WN, make sure each Macintosh® meets the following requirements:

An Apple® iBook,® iMac,® PowerBook® G3 or G4, Power Mac® G4 Cube, or Power Mac G3 or G4

Mac® OS 8.6 through 9.x; OS X 10.1 through 10.3 (Mac OS 9.1 or later recommended)

For Mac OS 8.6 through 9.x: 32MB of available RAM (64MB

recommended); for Mac OS X: 128MB RAM (256MB recommended)

100MB of free hard disk space (200MB recommended)

VGA display or better

CD-ROM or DVD drive for installing the printer software

Note:

If you are using AirPort, EPSON recommends that you use the print server with an access point or AirPort base station. With AirPort, your print server works more reliably in infrastructure mode.

Make sure the access point supports AppleTalk.® For a list of supported access points, see EPSON’s web site at: http://support.epson.com.

For computers not connected to a wired network, you need an AirPort card or Macintosh-compatible wireless adapter. Make sure your card or adapter works in ad hoc mode if you want to print without an access point.

Note:

For a list of supported cards, visit EPSON’s support site at: http://support.epson.com. Click Troubleshooting & FAQs in the column on the left, then click Printers > Epson Stylus C84WN > Frequently Asked Questions > Wireless Networking Questions.

If you are using an AirPort card or the AirPort base station, use AirPort software version 2.04 or later.
