Printer drivers for Macintosh computers

The printer comes with printer-driver software that uses a printer language to communicate with the
printer. Printer drivers provide access to printer features, such as printing on custom-sized paper,
resizing documents, and inserting watermarks.

Supported printer drivers

A Macintosh printer driver and the necessary PPD files are included with the printer. If the printer driver
that you want is not on the printer CD, check the installation notes and the late-breaking readme files
to see if the printer driver is supported. If it is not supported, contact the manufacturer or distributor of
the software program that you are using, and request a driver for the printer.

NOTE

The most recent drivers are available at
