Modem options for MacPro use with Brother printer/fax/modem

I have a MacPro without a modem but could get and install one, I suppose. I have a Brother printer that, I think, will fax to and from the computer [MFC-8670-DN] but can't set it up without a modem of course. I do have a modem in a Cube that still works.
Wht's the best way to go? Get modem and install in MacPro, use Cube and PageSender or somehow work out Cube send/receipt but ultimately connecting to MacPro?
Thanks for any help in figuring this out. I want to fax from MacPro desktop and receive to MacPro desktop. I do have Page Sender but no modem in the MacPro, thus the issue.

You can purchase the USB Modem from Apple for around $49.

Does anyone know where to find printer profiles for Epson paper with MG6200 printer using Lightroom?

Does anyone know where to find printer profiles for Epson paper with MG6200 printer for use in LightRoom5?

Epsnm should provide recommended settings (I.e. Which Canon paper type to select). They may also have profiles on their site.

You don't Use QT 7 "Pro", GarageBand, a video editor app, or a third-party app like MPEG Streamclip all of which can access user conversion settings.

Fastest and best external hard disks for video use with Imac?

What is the fastest and best external hard disks for video use with Imac (I believe it is currently not possible to use Esata on the Imac).

For DVCam. HDV etc, I'm a fan of the G-raid drives. From personal experience they
are very solid performers. I only had one issue with a new drive that was replaced
next day. They are not the cheapest drives to be found but the build quality
is excellent. Check out:

Best method for timestamping? (for later use with perl script)

What is the best method that I can use to timestamp events in Linux for later use with perl script?
I am performing some energy measurements.. where I am running several tasks separated by 20 secs in between. Before I start any execution of tasks, I always place initial delay for me to start the script and start the measurement device.
My problem is that I don't know how long is that first delay exactly. So to solve this, I thought I could use date commands to time stamp all tasks.. or at least to timestamp first dela.
Here is example of what I am doing:
1st delay
task 1
20s
task 2
20s
task 3..... etc
What would be the best to use?

logger.
It posts messages straight to the system log. You can see the message, in all its glory using tools like journalctl. You will see the message, the date, time, host name, user name, and the PID of logger when it ran.

Lost connection between Power Book G4 and Brother Printer/Fax. Need help.

I am a new Mac user and until recently had a successful wireless connection to the Brother printer/fax. Address # 192.168.1.100 While printing a job I ran out of ink. I turned the printer off to replace the cartridge and lost the connection to the wireless powerbook. The printer works because it prints jobs from the PC that it is connected to by wire. So far I have clicked on "system preferences", clicked print and fax, Clicked + ato add printer and put the address in. Nothing is working. The message says, cannot connect to printer. I need serious, detailed help. My husband connects everything and gets it running and he just left for Iraq! Thanks so much!!

Hello! In the printer setup utility choose "show Jobs" and see if you can click on "start jobs". It's probably gotten stuck because it ran out of ink. Tom

Some open source drivers* may exist to support it.

Often printing problems are a sign of corrupt preferences. Go to HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences, delete the com.apple.iwork.pages.plist file & then restart Pages.

I am unable to print color photos from i photo using a Brother Printer

I am unable to print color photos from i photo using a Brother MFC-6490CW all in one. The photos appear to be in grayscale. I have checked the printer settings, but for some reason I am not able to access the color management on my printer from printer set up. It only gives me the standard option. I have spent hours checking Bother's website and Apple's and I am not able to come up with a valid answer. I know that the color print works. If I print something from the internet of from outlook it will print in color. I know all of my cartridges are in working order, I have cleaned the print head on my Brother, but I am still not able to print photos in color!!!
What puzzles me the most is why I am unable to really access the color management menu on my printer? It just does not come up. I have the option from paper handling to print photos, but this has nothing to do with the quality. I have also tried printing the photo from an Adobe PDF file and I still have the same problem. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thank you.

In the Print dialogue box click on the little triangle to the right of the name of the printer. That will expand the dialogue box.

Scanning documents with brother printer.

I can scan but then it goes nowhere. How can I get the document that I can see was scanned to my desktop where it says it should be?

I have a Brother printer/scanner but use either Image Capture of VueScan for scanning. Does the Brother software give an option to change the destination for scans - perhaps into a folder? Any change?

Epson R1800 printer options missing when using AEBS wireless printing- WHY?

I have run into a very odd problem with my Epson R1800 printer. When I install the printer for directly connecting via USB or FireWire the version 6.12 print driver appears with all of the options. When I install the same printer when connected through my AirPort extreme base station the print driver is lacking most of the adjustment features.
Fire wire and USB contain the following menu items in the drop down print dialog"
Print Settings (with basic and advanced tabs)
Roll Paper Option
Expansion
Extension Settings
The AEBS printer options only contains one printer specific selection called:
Printer Features
which has a very limited selection of options, an no options which allow me to turn off color management.
Some additional information
- I installed this same printer driver on one laptop back in the days of 10.5.2 and I was able to install a AEBS printer which allows all of the options. On that same computer if I now install a new printer with the same driver those extra options are missing.
- I just upgraded a second laptop to Leopard today and went straight to 10.5.3 and the wireless driver for this printer only contains the limited menu items.
- I am certain that I am using the Epson drivers and not the Gutenprint drivers. Please do not suggest the Gutenprint drivers, they do not handle color management properly.

This is a real problem for this printer OS combination... I believe due to the crappy Epson driver. I searched the internet and found lots and lots of people having a similar problem. When I contacted Epson today they admitted there was a driver problem, but the tech told me they had no plans to improve the driver 'because the R1800 is a discontinued model'! How's that for support!
Anyway...several people have had fairly decent luck removing the printer and all Epson software then re-installing it. When the 'correct' driver is installed it will say something like "Epson R1800 (sp) 1". My problem is there is no way to profile this printer and have the driver work as it should for proofing and color management. I know that doesn't help much, but if you google "Epson R1800 problems with Leopard" you'll see what I mean.

Any options for a non-mac-compatible printer?

My Samsung ML-1710 printer is not Mac-compatible (says so clearly on their website). No other options? Just throw my printer out the window and get a new one?

For what (very!) little it is worth, Samsung used to supply OS X compatible drivers for the ML-1710, but they could be hard to find. I own a 1710 & found a driver that worked well with OS 10.4 Tiger at SAMSUNG's Digital World - Support, although it was released in 2004 & listed as supporting 10.3.
The basic problem seems to be that Samsung used a proprietary printing language ("SPL," for Samsung Printer Language) in the 1710 & some of its other low end laser printers & although the Mac drivers for this were supposed to be CUPS compatible, they were not compatible with CUPS support in later Mac OS versions. Samsung USA never officially supported these drivers (which is why you had to get them from an international Samsung website).
The details are fuzzy in my memory but as I remember it, this "SPL2.5" driver also worked with my G5 iMac when it was first upgraded to Leopard 10.5 & even worked when the ML-1710 was connected to my Airport Extreme 802.11n, but after applying one of the later 10.5 updates (10.5.6 ?) it quit working with the Airport. I never got around to seeing if the same was true for a direct USB printer connection to the G5 & I have not tried using this driver with Snow Leopard or with Leopard on any of my Intel Macs, but I doubt it will work.
Eventually, I'll try the solution mentioned by Matt Broughton & try to post my results here, but this is not a high priority for me since I now use a nice Canon MP-620 color inkjet for my (very limited) printing needs.

Multi display options for MBP using USB - Diamond BVU195 vs Sewell Minideck

I have narrowed my search for a multidisplay option for my MBP down to 2 devices;
Diamond BVU195
http://www.diamondmm.com/BVU195.php
http://www.amazon.com/Diamond-BVU195-Display-Adapter-included/dp/B002GHBW4S
and
Sewell Mindeck
http://sewelldirect.com/Sewell-Minideck-USB-to-DVI-Display-Adapter.asp
Has anyone had a chance to check out both of these?
There is no easy comparison, any opinions? thanks!

The obvious drawback of USB video adapters like these is that they tie up USB ports you may need for other purposes. If you intend to connect one or more such adapters to a USB hub instead of directly to the computer, be sure to use a hub that has its own AC power supply, and check with the adapter's manufacturer to make sure it has been tested with hubs and found to work that way.
The less obvious disadvantage of USB video adapters is slowness. If you don't use your multiple displays for gaming or other high-speed, demanding video applications, you may not be disappointed. If you do, you probably will be.

What are the options for viewing photos with Apple TV 2?

I have an old Apple TV, and load the family photos on the Apple TV itself. On the Apple TV 2, I know you can connect to MobileMe and Flickr.
Aside from MobileMe and Flickr, are there other options for viewing photos on the new Apple TV? Can you stream them from a Mac, or can you stream them from an iPhone/iPad?
If so, how is this initiated from the Apple TV, Mac, or iPhone/iPad?

You can stream from a Mac via itunes selection (iPhoto events or a folder) - it has 8GB of solid state temporary storage, but quite how things are cached/flushed from here is a bit of a mystery - you cannot say designate 2GB to hold photos or prioritise photos over other material.
Even rentals seem to flush if you've watched them and they haven't expired - relative fell asleep during a rental yesterday so i suggested she watched it today and it downloaded from scratch again, and the AppleTV hadn't had anything but music playing in the interim. Silly this really. There's a post on another section where someone used 17GB of their data allowance to watch a HD movie as it kept reloading!
Yes you can stream photos from iPod/iPad using Airplay, but to be honest i don't think ATV2 offers that much over ATV1 for photos (yet anyway), and in some ways it's inferior.
ATV2 is far more responsive/uses less power etc but I'm not convinced you get anything groundbeaking unless you have a lot of guests who could use it via Airplay from their iphones (and with ipads currently without cameras, photos would have to come from somewhere else in the first place).
