Best network (4-in-1) laser printer for Mac??

Hi Girls & Guys,
I'm looking for a reliable laser network printer (fax/copy/scan/print) suitable for Mac, for small business - 2 iMac's Snow leopard.
I had problems in the past, especially with regards to scanning through a network HP printer to my iMac's.
Anybody have some suggestions? Brands & Models...
I've heard Brother, Epson & Canon are most suitable for Macintosh.
THANKS!!

If I were you, I'd go shopping at MacMall - they have a number of printers that they sell and will let you know if they are Mac-compatible.
This one looks nice - and supports AirPrint.
I do a lot of shopping there, for everything from hard drives to Apple products. Have always received top-notch service.

Laser printer for Mac OS X 10.7.3 airprint

Need a laser printer for iMac and Macbook Air enable airprint.
Thank you

My question is "Can I use a wireless laser printer wirelessly regardless of the airprint capability?"
Regards
Sure there are quite a few Wi-Fi black & white laser printers for personal use. I would concentrate on HP, Brother, and Samsung. You can also change your router to one that has a USB port on it, then you can get a non Wi-Fi printer, plug it in via USB to the router and you have a wireless printer. I did this with my HP LaserJet 1012 and connected it to my Apple Airport Extreme router. There are a number of other routers that do the same thing.

Can anyone recommend a laser printer for Mac OS 10.7.3?

I recently bought a new iMac only to discover my old samsung printer is not compatible. Any suggestions on a new laser printer?

And a third.
I like this one: http://www.brother-usa.com/printer/ModelDetail.aspx?ProductID=HL2270DW#
Street price is about $100.
I have an earlier model, since discontinued. It's 100% reliable and about $1100 less than the last laser printer I bought.
If you're in the market for a printer I strongly recommend a manufacturer that actively supports OS X, Lion in particular, and does not treat the Mac market as an afterthought. Wireless network capable is a must. Brother meets all those requirements.
AirPrint would be nice but is not necessary - there are alternatives to AirPrint.
What model Samsung printer do you have? There may be a way to make it work. Here are a couple potentially relevant posts:

Laser print for mac book 10.8.2

Hello,
i need for my home a wlan Laser Jet.
Not so a big printer with scan and more. Only print.
All Laser Jet, not for Mac with 10.8.2 Version.
Greetings

I just recently registered on this forum to see if I could help with answering questions from the users here. I did this because I like the apps and aims of Mozilla, and I'm willing to spend time helping people out with using these apps if I'm able to. That being said, questions worded like the one above do not make me want to spend much time being all that helpful.
My suggestion is that you wait a few hours (or day or so) before posting about a problem that is causing some negative emotional response for you.
If anyone has the same problem as what is described above, please post more information about their software versions (i.e. flash version), and whether or not the issue remains when taking the flash plugin out of the equation and using HTML5 on youtube (http://www.youtube.com/html5).
My initial thought is that the issue is with the flash plugin being used. Has another flash version been used?

AirPrint laser printer for home that has "n" wifi capabilities

Looking for an AirPrint laser printer for home that has "n" wifi capabilities. Was shocked to findout that most lasers don't do "N" wifi or high speed networking yet. Am seriously considering the HP LaserJet Pro P1102w printer, but just found out it is a nightmare to setup. Thought I could run it by USB port off my Timecapsule… Is anyone doing that? Can it do that? Is there a better alternative?

Hi Scott,
You can also setup the P1102w without the USB cable. What you need to do is to connect the printer via ad-hoc to your iPad first. With the default network settings the printer has its own SSID that you can select from the WiFi list on your iPad. Then open Safari and go into the EWS - either by the printers IP or host name. There you go to Network - Wireless and make the settings for your infrastructure network.
However, both Laserjets will need a FW update that you install from a Mac or PC, so you may already use the install steps there to connect your printer to the network.
Regards,
Mandy

Black and white laser printer for Imac running 8.6 os

Does anyone know of a laser printer for my older Imac running 8.6 os?

jackson hole 88,
The 300-320-360 series was nice and 10 ppm but no ethernet. Jump right to the 600 series, including the 16/600 or the 640. Find a recycler that refurbishes them. You can get printers there for as low as $25. Buy two and have spare parts. Toner is still available for that series at affordable prices.

How do I find a driver for a Dell 1320c Colour Laser Printer for a MacBook Pro running OSX 10.9.2

How do I find a printer driver for a Dell 1320c Color Laser Printer for use on a MacBook Pro running Mavericks OSX 10.9.2?

Ask Dell who made the printer and what model is it. Then you can see if there is a matching driver provided with OS X or that can be downloaded from the manufacturer's website.

Monochrome home laser printer for my ibook G4, OS 10.3.3

Hi,
I am looking for an affordable, no fuss laser printer for home use . 600 or 1200 dpi is fine, as long as it prints nice looking professional resumes !!
.. ANW, m currently looking the HP laserjet 1020, 1022 and 2100, but having read elsewhere of driver problems encountered by other Mac users, I am unlikly to bite. Found a link at HP website that "sells" the CD for 1020/22 series drivers, but it looks like delivery is only within the US / Canada... (and I am in Asia !!)
Any other recommendations please? many thanks in advance.

ibook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.3) -

Sitting here and watching my new babie 2040 is great.
Called up the nearby store and found the printer for S$198 (with 3 year warranty). Remembered I had a S$200 gift voucher from the same store and within an hour, I was walking out of the store - all smiles as I didn't have to fork out a single extra penny for the purchase.
The installation was very smooth, cldn't be easier... print is fine. except now i probably need to look for good quality paper for printing resumes. otherwise the print on ordinary paper for own home office purposes does it for me.
although i am still wondering how you found out I am from singapore, (guess my member profile shows it), the link you provided solved the problem.
thanks a lot.

can anyone recommend a Multi-function black and white laser printer for that works with Mountain Lion?

I bought an epson xp650 a couple of months ago and cannot fault it. It does everything I require and it is the wifi model so I can print directly from my ipad/iphone. Not sure if you are asking about the colour of the unit or just to be able to print black and white, Obviously all printers will print black and white but just to give you a little more info the printer I bought is the white version and it looks really nice sat next to my imac 27''
Hope this helps.

I'm using (trying to use) my Brother HL-2040 with 10.6.2, and it's been nothing but headaches since I updated. I'd like to buy a laser printer for my son to use with his Macbook, but he has even less patience than me. What mfr and model would you recommend?

Have you tried update the drivers

Wireless printer for mac OSX 10.7.4 any recommendations

Hello Flajack,
Thanks for the post. I did some checking here and the HP 3050a is compatible with MAC OS 10.7 in a wireless environment. What kind of issues are you having? Installation? Connectivity? Maintaining a wireless connection? I've included a couple of my favorite links below to assist in getting this resolved. Check the information in these links and let me know how it goes from there. Good Luck!

The best COLOR LASER printer for my buck?

I have an HP 1012 black and white laser printer which works great! Only changed the toner once in two years.
But now I need a good color laser printer that can print decent quality color photos. At least good enough for my band's fliers on glossy paper.
Does anyone have any reccomendations?
Thanks in advance!

If you read this recent thread, you will find my musings on the subject.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=641100&tstart=0
Keep in mind that how you intend to use the printer will affect your choices. If you are interested in photos, print quality is an issue. The number of pages you expect to print per month may determine whether you can get by with a personal printer or if you will need more of a business printer. If you are printing a lot of colored pages, faster printing of color documents is a step up in price. Make a list, check the specs from the various manufacturers, including the price of consumables, and you should be able to make an intelligent decision.

Best b/w laser printer for OSX?

I'm looking to buy a new (home) b/w laser printer, ideally wireless - I'm SO tired of my Epson inkjet clogging/'running out of ink'!
From what I've read it looks like the majority are a bit of a nightmare to set up with Mac.
Do you have any experience or recommendations?
Many thanks.

I'd shop around somewhere like Craigslist if you want to get a bargain. If you want a new one then I would go with a basic HP laser printer. The main reason that I say HP is the cost and availability of toner cartridges. I have a great Konica-Minolta printer that just sits in my storage room because of the toner cost alone doesn't justify the cost of the $50 that I paid for it used. Toner would cost me $95 whereas the HP toner is a lot less. Toner cost is another thing that you want to consider when replacing the cartridge. A new replacement cartridge is pricey but refilled ones are a lot cheaper but then again we get into a whole new discussion there. There are good reasonable priced cartridges then there are the refill kits that I'll say "STAY AWAY" from those for many a reason. Another thing is replacement parts and their availability. I have an older HP1300 that I've been using for the last 5 years that I bought used that's still plugging away with beautiful black prints and the only things that I have replaced is the pick up roller for $5 and 5 min to replace. The K-M I mentioned earlier is a beast to work on and parts are expensive and not readily available. To be perfectly honest with you, I would buy a good used HP from someone that is reputable, have it cleaned out and replace the pick roller(s), a new toner cartridge and you'll be happier than the new junk that they are selling now. Just a last thought...I have an older HP 4P laser printer that is at least 10 years old and according to the print out has printed over 40,000 pages and still works and the only reason that I replaced it is because I need something to print a little faster. Hope I've given you a little insight.

Looking for a good laser printer for OSX 10.6.8

I need a decent laser printer. Using Macbook Pro with OSX 10.6.8. I've given up trying to get the drivers to work on our office Xerox Workcentre 7328. I keep getting the "OTC at end of life" error and I'm sick of trying to download drivers and try this and that. All I need is to print text. I will buy a separate scanner for scanning pictures (any recommendations on that as well?). I have been seeing issues with Lion and with our Xerox troubles, I'm a little gun shy now. I was considering the Brother Printer HL2230 I saw on Amazon.
Does anyone have other recommendations or experiences to share? As far as the scanner goes, I'm looking for something for less than $100 if possible. This would be mostly for scanning pictures to put into slide shows. I found this one, also on Amazon: Epson Perfection V300 Photo Scanner (B11B193081)
Opinions?

If you want to avoid any trouble in the future with new versions of OS X then as Bob has suggested the best action is to get a laser printer that supports Postscript. Looking at the specs for that Brother, it is a GDI device, meaning that may have rely on Brother producing an updated driver if the current driver does not work on the new OS. Now if you are not likely to update when the new cat is released then you should be fine. And there is also a chance that the current drivers will work. But Postscript support does future proof your printer, although it will cost more than $80 which is very cheap. If you do get that Brother make sure you also get the high yield toner cartridge which is a separate purchase. The starter cartridges included with the printers generally have a quarter of the toner that a full cartridge has.
As for the scanner, I've read good reviews about that Epson so it looks like a winner.

Color Laser Printer for OSX?

Hi! I need some advice on a color laser printer that will work with Tiger and Leopard both and also Windows XP. I'm looking for a high quality 25-35 PP/Min printer. I haven't had any luck finding suitable reviews for anything out there. Does anyone have any real world advice? Thanks, Tom

I have a Hewlett Packard CP2025DN color laserjet printer. It cost about $450 a month or so ago. I've never heard of an HP printer that doesn't work with Windoze anything. I haven't heard of any HP printers that don't work with Tiger or Leopard, either.
It has a built-in duplexer, and handles up to 8.5x14 paper. It is networkable, you can buy an additional wireless box for them. I use my printer connected via USB to a PPC Leopard machine that has printer sharing enabled (I did that because the PPC is always on anyways as a fax server, email server, voicemail server, and file server). The printer is advertised to be about 21 ppm, as I recall. I don't think that the printer is recommended for heavy duty use.
Can't speak to the rate of toner consumption, I'm a pretty light-duty user. I think HP toner cartridges run about $100 each.
