Can't find a printer driver for LaserWriter Select 360?

My older G4, which I just upgraded from OS 9.2 to OS X10.3.9 (I was reluctant to leave PageMaker), doesn't have a printer driver for my Apple LaserWriter Select 360. It finds my Epson 2200 with no problems. I've tried two shareware programs. The first seemed to say that Apple Printer Drivers were missing and that it had reinstalled them (but I don't remember the name. I found it in one of the threads here). But there was no sign of the LaserWriter when I tried to print. The second program I tried was Pacifist, figuring I could just reinstall that one printer driver from the Panther disks. But I couldn't see it anywhere though there was two Epsons, Hewlitt Packard and others. I tried the Apple website, but had no luck. I know there is one because two other computers we have in OS Xs can recognize the printer. Is there a driver out there I can download or is there someway I can get it off the other computer I have that is in 10.3.9? It's really frustrating to have to transfer the regular stuff I want to print to another computer.
Thanks!! Jane

We're halfway there...maybe! The printer shows up on the list, but when I try to print something (I tried an InDesign file, also a Word one), the computer sends the file and the printer starts, but then puts the job on hold (the green light on the printer never blinks). If I click Start Job, the same thing happens again.
When I looked at Help and found "Setting up to print to an IP Printing network printer," it said to "type the IP address or DNS name for the printer in the Printer Address field." I looked through my "User's Guide" and didn't know what that was. It wouldn't let me "ADD" the printer without one so first I typed in the whole name of the printer that was on the list below. Then it let me ADD, but not print. Then I tried it again with the word "home." Same thing, it added the printer but wouldn't let me print.
One other question I had was when I got to the Add Printer, IP Printing, I had to choose a "Printer Type." It was on LPD/LPR so I left it. I didn't know what any of the choices meant. Perhaps that was wrong.
Now that the LaserWriter is on the list, can we make it print?
Thanks so much, Jane

    Actually the best place is the web site for the printer. You'll also need the model, but there are still some OS9 drivers out there.
    You must supply the printer make and model for people here to help further.

  • Where can I find a printer driver for Canon Pixma iP6600D? I have Mac OS 10.9.2

    I have a great printer Canon Pixma iP6600D, still works great. I want to either download a printer driver or I want to learn how to transfer the driver from my Mac desk top. If I knew where to find the driver I could just manually transfer it from my desktop to my laptop.  Both are running maverick.
    Can anyone help me?

    The last driver that Canon released for the iP6600D was v10.51 for OS X 10.7. You could try downloading and installing this driver via this link.
    Note that the driver may not be digitally signed so Gatekeeper will block its installation. To get past Gatekeeper, you can right-click on the installer and select Open from the pop-up menu that appears. You will then be given the option to install the driver.

  • HT3669 I have an imac running OS10.6.8 and an Apple laserwriter 16/600PS.  Is it possible to connect these directly without networking?  Where can I find the printer driver?

    It turned out that WD is the big bad guy in this game.
    According the data rescue company where I asked for an inspection, both of the drives had their reader head loose. And in the one, which was my already-in-use disk its even damaged the platters... xxxxx
    So its time to pay bunch of money to recover, and take a walk to wd service to bang on the desk.
    Also note - it may be somehow related to intellispeed technology - since macs not really friendly with wd-s built-in solutions.
    On the other hand, with WD GP 1Tb there is no problems at all for ages.

  • I can't find the yosemite driver for my epson r3000 printer.

    I can't find the yosemite driver for my new epson r3000 printer. I am using 10.10.1. The Epson website says to find the driver by going to the App store and looking for updates. I did that and didn't find any.  In "Printers and Scanners" in System Preferences I notice that the computer is aware that I am connected to the printer (via USB) but a message  at the bottom of the window says that "Software for this printer isn't available from Apple. Contact the printer's manufacturer...".  What to do?

    It looks as though Epson has a driver compatible with Yosemite.

  • Printer Driver for Laserwriter 320

    I need to load the printer driver for my Laserwriter 320 on my iBook, which I just upgraded to OS 10.4. However, the install disk did not have any Apple printer drivers on it, contrary to reports stating that they were on the disk.
    I have tried third party sites to find the printer driver download but only the driver for Windows machines can be found.
    Does anyone have or know of a source that has the Mac printer driver for Laserwriter 320?
    Thanks,
    Greg Linn

    Hi.
    The driver for the Personal LaserWriter 320 is already installed by default, since it's part of the Essential System Software. If you want to check it, just go to System/Library/Printers/PPDs/Contents/Resources/en.lproj, and you'll find the "l LaserWriter Personal 320.gz".
    If I recall correctly, in order to make that legacy printer work with OS X, you need an Ethernet to LocalTalk Adatper, like the AsanteTalk, or similar.
    Good Luck.

  • I can not find a suitable driver for my hp deskjet 1280 for OS X 10.7 Lion (macbook) Please help.

    I can not find a suitable driver for my hp deskjet 1280 for os x 10.7.  Since updating my software the printer will only use basic functions and prints only black and white, how do I enable the printers full capabilities? Thanks!

    Hi,Officially the printer no longer supported on OS X 10.6 or above, therefore the reduced quality due the Generic driver usage:
    http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&task Id=120&prodSeriesId=439162&prodTypeId=18972&prodSeriesId=439162&objectID=c018563 59
    However, you may try the 3rd party HPIJS print drivers which list your printer as supported and will more likely provide you a better qualiity then a Generic driver.
    Be sure to install any of the 3 required downloads and follow the steps to Set Up the printer:

  • Where can i find a Labview driver for the "8990a PEAK POWER ANALYZER" it's not on NI's site.

    where can i find a Labview driver for the "8990a PEAK POWER ANALYZER" it's not on NI's site.
    if there is no driver maybe you can tell me the closest instrument that comes to this one from the list at,

    so i could modify and use the driver

    Hello,
    It looks like Agilent/HP makes the 8990A, but I was not able to find a driver for it that we or Agilent has written for this device.
    Since I am not familiar with the 8990A, I cannot recommend which drivers might be similar, but you are pointed in the right direction. Agilent themselves might know more about which models use similar command sets so that you can modify a driver easily.
    Hope this helps.

  • Where can i get a printer driver for my kodak hero 3.1 printer for my macbook

    where can i get a printer driver for my kodak hero 3.1 printer for my macbook

    Mac 101: Printing (OS X Lion)
    Important:
    Your OS X Lion system will either have the necessary printing software already installed, or it will automatically download and install software when the printer is connected or configured. Do not install software that came with the printer as it may be out of date, and do not connect the printer to your Mac yet. Follow the instructions that came with the printer to unpack, install ink or toner, and insert paper.  Finally, use the instructions in this article to connect the printer to your Mac.
    The procedures are identical for Mountain Lion.

  • Where can i find the sound driver for my Toshiba Satellite U505-S2970 ?

    If "Realtek High Definition Audio" is listed under the "Sound, video and game controllers" in the Device Manager then that is your sound driver. Some people have had luck with uninstalling the Realtek HD audio driver from their computer via the Device Manager (be sure to check the "Delete driver software for this "), and then reinstalling it. You can get the latest version of the Realtek HD audio driver from the Realtek download site.
    Many of us who have the Realtek HD sound driver have had to make several tweaks to improve the sound. Opening the Realtek HD Manager and enabling Loudness Equalization and setting the equalizer to Powerful helps with some of the low audio issues some of us have experienced with the Realtek HD sound drivers.

  • How can I get a printer driver for the hp psc 2410 photosmart?

    When I tried toadd the printer, there was a message saying that the printer driver for the 2400 series was available, but when I tried to download it, I received an error message saying that I couldn't download it because of a network error.  My Macbook is not on a network at the moment.  How can I get the driver so I can print?

    You can also install this update directly (not through app store):
    http://support.apple.com/kb/dl907
    If you want us to help more, you will need to give us more detailed info. "It didn't work" leaves me wondering exactly what you've done so far.
    For example, after clicking Add/+ and selecting the printer you want, have you waited for a full minute for the Mac to find the driver
    - OR -
    when it starts searching for driver, have you tried going to the pull-down menu where it says "Use: Auto-select," and choosing "Select Printer Software..." to make a manual selection?

  • Does anybody already developed or knows where can I find a LabVIEW driver for a CETA 800 equipment?

    Ronaldo Schwarz
    Selco Sistemas Eletronicos Ltda

    Ronaldo,
    I just did a search of the web (and of NI resources), and I could not find any helpful pages offering information on LabVIEW drivers for this CETA 800 equipment.
    The only suggestion I have is that perhaps the manufacturer of the device may have a driver, or may perhaps know of someone who does provide one.
    I hope you are able to find a LabVIEW driver for this instrument. If you end up having to write one of your own, you can visit www.ni.com/idnet to find several resources on writing your own instrument drivers.
    Have a pleasant day.
