10.4.11, 10.5 and XP Home compatible multifunction printer with 4+ inks

I'm looking for an inkjet multifunction printer (normally I don't go for these, but due to the constrained space of the friend I'm making an exception) with 4 or more separate color ink cartridges with 10.4.11, 10.5, and XP Home compatible scanning and printing. It is a Dell 3000 2.8 Ghz Pentium 4.
Can anyone recommend one that works with all three operating systems via USB?

Can anyone recommend one that works with all three operating systems via USB
I've had trouble with Mac-only USB printer sharing and HP printers, but Epson devices seems to work fine with USB sharing. However, when we recently found ourselves in your position, we opted for the HP 6280 that has ethernet connectivity. It has five or six cartridges and the price of indiv cartridges is not bad. The 6280 does not fax.
Do you have a router with USB? Our new AEBS has a USB port that lets a printer be shared by any computer served by the AEBS, including Windoze machines. Maybe upgrading the router could present you with more choices of MF devices.

I have upgraded to elements 13 and unistalled 11 photos corrected in 11 are not compatible to print with 13

Help please my photos that I had been viewing printing etc are not compatible when I print in elements 13. I have unistalled elements 11 but still hve the same problem

When I try to print using elements 13 up pops The saved print information is in an incompatible version. it has been set to default values.
    I have templates that I had designed in elements 11 to drop photographs into, every time I try to print up pops the notice above and it will not print.
   If I have imported the photograph and worked on it in elements 13 it prints fine.
   I have hundreds of photographs that I have changed from raw files to Jpegs etc. which printed fine. Now with elements 13 I cannot print any of them.
   Help please, I was born BC before computers

What do you mean by "not compatible"? What happens, exactly, when you try to print?

When i try to print in black and white, my picture is flooded with blue ink

hi! I made sure all the printing settings were correct. I did a clean of the heads and made sure the inks were all full. I set the printer to print six by four inches and used hp advanced photo paper. I set the print to grey scale, as there is no settings for black and white.
when the picture came through, it started grey scale and further down the picture was flooded with blue ink. I have a all in one printer fax C309 series. can anyone help me please?
This question was solved.

This seems like the printhead may have a problem. Lets go to printing preferences for the printer(these may already be set this way if so let us know). In this window on the left column of printing shortcuts lets choose Fast/Economical and set Print in Grayscale on the right to "Black ink only". If your setting was set to high quality try printing again. If you were already set to "Black ink only" under the Grayscale option the printer may require servicing.

Printer aligns BUT only with Black and Blue all other diagnostics print with all colours

Initially when installed the printer REFUSED to align, took 7 attempts (OK I have heard of Einsteins quote !). Each time I used the printer screen to ALIGN PRINTER - the process failed. So I looked on the web, and:
Cleaned the cartridges,
Cleared the vents
Removed and cleaned the printhead
Prayed
Tried again
All to no avail, so then I tried doing the diagnostics via the PC software, and here the mystery deepened.
When running the HP Photosmart B210 Series tool box I got three differing results from the three printing options
A Print Quality Diagnostics Page gave me Ba full five colour printout
Align Printheads gave me black and blue lies/boxes/grids and the Alignement Successful message
Print Diagnostic info gave me all four colours with lots of meaningful info including the 73 Print head Calibration COnfidence Level:0
Any Ideas ANYONE, before I bin this and buy a Kodak or Epson in disgust
This question was solved.
View Solution.

What exactly is the issue? The alignment aligns the color printhead to black printhead, and only one color (cyan for your printer) and black are needed for that. (There is likely an additional set of blocks that prints gray blocks fading to white. This section is used to calibrate the energy for the colors.) The other test pages you printed will print various diagnostic or test pages which will use all the colors.
A successful alignment page requires the page be printed on unused white paper and requires that the black and cyan sections are printing properly.

HT201673 I would like to use cellular data for internet and my home network for printing, without having to cycle wireless on and off every time I print

the only internet connection I have at my home is a cellular connection. It is very unproductive having to turn wifi on to print and then back off to reconnect to cell service. Looking for options. I own a linksys e2500 router that I currently network through, but it has no internet connection, as no home internet available in my area.

You can have a go using a wireless bridge.. eg the airport express will do this.. you can join it to the iphone wireless running as a hotspot.. and then plugged into the TC wan port.. the TC has to be setup in router mode.. so this is going to give you double NAT errors.. and of course errors for all the time the hotspot is turned off.. but it can work. However you might find it requires you to manually connect up each time.. If you are really going to try and do this you will manage it.. but how fiddly it becomes might put you off after a week.
You will chew up your 5GB very fast using any streaming media even radio. So be very careful to track the usage.
Apple should have built in the TC the ability to plug in a wireless 3G modem.. via the USB but Apple have ceased to do adventurous stuff.
If you give up the TC as main router there are plenty of better products on the market that will handle multiple wan connections.. !!

If I middle-click several links in row, some will not load and open home page instead, even with 16.0.2. Why?

This happens with regular sites from bookmarks or from another webpage listing links.
Middle clicking opens new tabs for each click and in some loads the clicked link and in other tabs opens google (home page)

Hello! I have a printer,Canon MP250 and I bought a new MacBookPro with Maverick and I cannot work this printer

Hello! I have a printer,Canon MP250 and I bought a new MacBookPro with Maverick and I cannot work this printer with the driver that came with the printer and I've tried to find an update but with no success, can you help me?
Thanks!!

you can try resetting the network settings in settings or you can try doing a reset - hold down the home/power button together until you see the apple logo and then release. Then wait for the phone to boot back up. You won't lose any data.

My two printers stopped working after upgrading to 10.4.7. both printers connected directlty through USB. I have a Stylus C82 and a Stylus 740. I switched to the S 740 thinking it was a printer problem, but after printing normally a few pages, the same happened to the S 740.Won't print with black ink, the printer head moves as if printing, but the page comes out blank. I have reset the printers from both, the the Printer Browser window and the Printer Setup utility using Reset Printers. (Nozzles and Ink are fine on the printers). I have tried to print docs in different applications (Word, TextEdit, etc) but the same happens. I have reinstalled OS10.4.7 from CD but still the same problem.
The message that shows at the console when printing:

Trying to network a PC and MacBook to use HP printer

I'm trying to set up a friend's HP All-in-one printer 7310 using her MacBook Laptop(which is not her primary computer).
The printer is NOT wireless, so I'm trying to go through her PC using Linksys. The PC and another PC laptop can print with no problems using wireless. Although MacBook picks up the wireless network with no problem, I can't get it to talk to the PC and then print. It starts the "opening connections" screen, but then stalls and finally says it can't find the printer.
I've also set the desktop PC to share the printer.
What am I doing wrong. Please help and go step by step for the novice with the PC world.
thank you!

HELP: Trying to print with a dot and matrix printer

Ok, here's the deal:
I own a very very old, 1985, OLIVETTI DM 292 printer and I want to try printing with it on Mac OS X 10.5.7 .
I am trying to use the generic EPSON 9- or 24-pin drivers that are present in OS X.
But so far I've had very little success.
I am using a parallel-to-USB cable that makes OS X recognize the printer as the name of the cable manufacturer.
Let's do an example:
I want to print a .doc, Microsoft Word document.
I PRINT and select the DaM printer.
The status window eventually comes to "GenericClass: waiting for device" and the printer freezes.
Previously, if I turned the printer off and then on immediately after it would print (even with the most possible chaos).. but this trick seems to be uneffective now.
Can you help me ?
Thanks to anyone who'll answer.

Try the alternate USB driver, usbtb. It is supposed to help with USB-parallel adapter cables.

Can't print with Airport Extreme and Canon MP610

Can anyone suggest a way around this?
I am unable to print using my new Canon MP610 multifunction printer when connected via my Airport Extreme, but I can print when connecting the printer to my computer directly, not using the Airport Extreme. After several hours of frustration, updating drivers and firmware, etc, I contacted Canon and received an email back stating:
"MP610 is not supported by
Canon with a wireless connection through an Apple Airport. This does
not necessarily mean that it will not work, but we are not able to
provide configuration and troubleshooting information."
Last summer, my daughter was able to use the same Extreme to print wirelessly using her Mac Book Pro and her Canon MP600 multifunction printer (note - different printer model).
Sounds like Canon isn't saying it won't work, but they cant' help.
If anyone can offer a suggestion to work around this, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks,
Doug

It is possible your printer simply cannot be made to work in this manner, and is more often than not a problem with multifunction printers.
