5 Printing

Using Your Machine with a Macintosh

Your machine supports Macintosh systems with a built-in USB interface. When you print a file from a Macintosh computer, you can use the CUPS driver by installing the PPD file.

Installing Software for Macintosh

The CD-ROM that came with your printer provides you with the PPD file that allows you to use the CUPS driver or Apple LaserWriter driver (only available when you use a printer which supports the PostScript driver), for printing on a Macintosh computer.

Also, it provides you with the TWAIN driver for scanning on a Macintosh computer.
