Trying to set up Dell printer on Mac Mini

so i have a dell 720 inkjet printer i got free from a friend and i want to use it on my mac mini. When i try to add it to my list of printers it says it cant find the driver. So i went to the dell website and tried to download the driver but they only had drivers for windows. is there anyway to download the driver or get this dell laptop to work on my mac? please help, i am a student and need to get this set up fast! thanks!

Sorry, Dell does not support their inkjet printers on Macs. I do not think there are any third party drivers, either.

Have you downloaded and installed an App Store app that you downloaded free from some website instead of from the App Store? If so, that's a stolen app, and you need to delete it.

Connect dell s2240t to mac mini

can i connect dell s2240t to mac mini and there are any drivers?

The specs:
http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=us&l=en&cs=19&sku=320-97 38
only lists Windows 8 as being compatible. Unless you can find drivers that support OSX, the touch feature will not work.

My HP 2355 won't show up in AirPrint? I have it plugged in via USB and set it up on my Mac mini with the airport express network. Any advice?

Unless your HP printer is an AirPrint-ready device, just connecting it to the USB port of the AirPort Express base station will not make it so.
On the other hand, connecting a non-AirPrint printer to the base station's USB port it can be shared out by the base station's print server. Please see the following Apple Support article for details.

I am trying to get Zen-Cart on my mac mini server lion 10.6

How can I set a password on my Mac Mini so someone else cannot open it and read emails, etc.?

How can I set a password on my Mac Mini? Someone else is reading my emails. I would like to be able to lock it so nothing on it could be seen without a password. Is that possible? How?

So uncheck the automatic login after making sure you know your password and it will require a password on startup.
You can also go into the security preferences and have the machine lock itself once the screensaver is activated. This is sometimes controlled from the screensaver preferences as well.
You could also go nuts and activate multiple users where your name appears in the menu bar. When you walk away from the machine you can use that menu to take you to the "login window", effectively locking your machine.

Set display size for headless Mac Mini?

Hello.
I want to set the display on my Mac Mini (headless, control via ARD) to a widescreen setting, but since no monitor is attached, it doesn't give me the option for a widescreen display.
Any ideas how to force it to a widescreen display setting?
Thanks,
Kristin.

I found that online : http://www.macvroom.com/node/39
And I've used it once to set a mac mini to automatically switch to a non-standard resolution to display properly on some sort of strange flat-screen tv.
If you find additional info, please post for reference, can always be useful.

I set up Raid on my Mac Mini Server and lost my Server software. It is not listed in my "purchased" apps. How can I get it w/o having to purchase it? Will my serial # be enough to show it is a mini server and under warrantee be enough to get it back?

If it's not listed in Purchases, check that it's hidden, and if so, unhide it > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928 After that, go to Purchases and download OS X Server.
If you can't download it, contact with the Mac App Store support > http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact

Trying to install Leopard server on my Mac mini

I'm a registered Apple Select Developer and I'm trying to install Leopard Server on a Mac mini I just picked up the other day. Is there a way to do this using the image or do I have to burn a DVD in order to do the install? The image is over 5GB's so I'd need to get a dual layer disk.

Is this just for a test?
If so you can create 3 partitions, one a bootable volume the second partition a place to restore the Leopard image and the third partition to install the new software you restored on the second partition. You do loose two small volumes temporarily, but you can make them relatively small since these are only used for installation purposes. The details can be found on the developer site under " leopardclient_9a377a_seednote.rtf".
I've done this on older machines with no CD players installed.

When i'm trying to update the new itunes my mac mini repots

Hello, How are you updating exactly... and are you sure you want to update? iTunes 11 is the worst incarnation yet as far as I'm concerned.

Trying to set up my Printer for IP.

Hi, ive been trying to set up my iMac to work with my printer that has a IP set up already.
The printer is a HP OfficeJet 6110.The printer is currently set up to work with my two windows based machines. One being a desktop and wired, second being a laptop over IP. Both print to the machine perfect.
Now when I try setting up my printer on my mac I open up my Print and Fax window, then go to my Printer Browser. Right away it finds "P1", which is the name of the IP printer. It then sets it up through Apple Talk, its location being Local Zone. Then it goes to the option of "Print Using". First as Auto Select it sits and tries to find the printer. I once left it running for an hour with nothing. The i go to HP, and my printer is not listed.
Last I set it up as Generic PostScript printer, it works and I extit. I try to print something and the printer begins to run. But when it begins to print it is all symbols and random words.
If anyone could help me I'd be very happy.
Thank You.

Why is it set up as an AppleTalk printer? I thought you said it was an IP printer.
You need to open Printer Setup Utility and click on the Add button. Select the IP Printer icon in the toolbar. Select Line Printer Daemon - LPD from the Protocol drop down menu. Enter the printer's IP address in the Address field. Enter a short name for the Queue field (e.g., Officejet_6110.)
From the Print Using drop down menu select HP, thenlocate and select the printer driver from the list. Click on the Add button.

Dell printer and Mac OS

Hi, we just switched over to Mac and am trying to get my Dell 2130cn printer to work with these computers. Many thanks to the help in this forum, i was able to find and download the recommended pxlmono driver and can now print in color. However, i'm not able to use the duplexer, second tray, and printing photos takes forever. We are using the comps/printer in a business application, and printing newsletters, envelopes/graphics etc is a necessary daily event. Does Mac offer a translating software that will allow me to install the Dell drivers to run the printer as I did on our PCs, or should I buy a new printer?? Many thanks

Thanks for the replies guys. Just to double check--would it work if I installed Windows with a Mac program that allowed me to run Windows parallel to the Mac os (i'm sick of windows) just to run the printer? I know it seems like an easier solution to just buy a new printer, but frankly I'm not excited about the options out there--really like this printer and have $500 of toners we just bought for it. But i don't really want to compromise--I'd like it to work like it did on a PC. Thanks again
