What printer will work with Maverick OS 10.9

I recently purchased a Brother HL- 2280 DW only to find that the device doesnt support Maverick OS 10.9.  Plus I am having a problem finding a printer that will work with Maverick OS 10.9 (Perhaps that is why it is named Maverick) Please help!

I did not get past loading the cd that came with the printer. It stated that my my operating system was not supported.
I personally avoid loading any crapware that comes with peripheral devices, printers, scanners, hard drives, etc. Very little of it is useful on a Mac.
Should I have ignored the cd info and gone ahead and plugged the printer into my Mac Pro then loaded the cd from brother?
No. You should have just plugged in your printer and added it in the Printers & Scanners System Prefs without loading the CD at all.

  • What printer will work with OS 8.6 and how to hook up to internet.

    I have a 10 year old Power Mac G4 (AGP Graphics) with OS 8.6 400mhz, 128 mb SDRAM. use Quark express graphic design software. I want to hook up a wireless card (I have an airport card slot in my G4) to go to internet. Second I would like to hook up a printer to this Mac G4,however all the new printer require OS X. Do you know of any printer that will work with this G4 as it is with OS 8.6. I do not have a parallel port. Only Serial and USB. Help

    I have a Canon i960 printer that I use with my G4 (USB connection) on both OS 9.2.2. & Tiger 10.4.11. I've had it since it was new & never had a clog, & I've printed thousands of color prints. It will also run on OS 8.6. Here's a review. http://www.steves-digicams.com/2003reviews/canoni960.html You can probably find a used one on eBay.

  • What printer will work with Tiger nicely?

    I am just like the untold thousands who are having non-stop printing problems between my hp printer and Mac OS X.
    I used 10.3.9 and had non-stop printer problems. Did all the usual: uninstall, get latest driver, fix permissions, yada yada.
    I just upgraded to 10.4.5. I was SO looking forward to the many fixes that would inherently come along with a modern OS. Well...the computer sleeps now without crashing, that is nice. I like dashboard. Computer seems to run a bit smoother.
    Printer still won't work most of the time. Prints on occasion, locks up, sometimes pushing restart printing ad nauseum will help.
    Ok, I'm just gonna admist defeat after reading multiple posts on here, recognizing that OS X is bugged where many printers are concerned.
    Here's my question: I would like a printer that works. Any recommendations on a printer, color, laser, or otherwise, that prints without problems with OS X? Are there any printers that are recognized as basically compatible with OS X and don't have all these obvious problems?
    thanks
    PowerMac G4 1.42 duel   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    I'll gladly accept any help under one condition:
    it fixes the problem.
    Here's what I mean by that statement...
    so much of the workarounds I saw in posts where frustrating repeatable efforts; must be repeated to keep the printer working.
    I am just tired of dealing with it. If I can get some help to make it work, that would be great.
    If I have to do this and that every few days to keep it maintained and working, I will go ahead and make the darn thing work with my (dare I say it on here) PC. I'm about to the point of connecting the printer to the PC and just letting the apple sit without a printer. Seems blaspemous to me though...and a shame...he he
    Help is appreciated.
    Thanks,

  • What printer will work with a mini.

    I have a Mini and I needf a all in one printer. I was thinking about the HP Photosmart C3180 All-in-One Printer, Scanner, Copier.
    My mini is intel and I dont know if this will still work. Does anyone have any info on this. Or maybe you know of a all in one that works well with mac mini.
    The HP above is sold in the apple store.
    Thanks

    I have used an HP 3310, with the optional duplexer unit too, both wirelessly and later wired, as a network printer, and everything worked good.

    the unit's power has to be cycled occassionally, but this has nothing to do with the computer using it, seems to be a minor problem with the network regardless of what computer is present (happens when only my XP machines are on too).

  • What Monitors WILL work with the Mac-Mini?

    If the new Mac-Mini does not put out analog video and Apple does not state this, what monitors will work with it?

    I was able to get an Apple Studio Display to work via the adapter in the Mac Mini box combined with that huge DVI to ADC adapter they had sold me years ago. In the Apple Store I really had to press them to assure me my display would work as they told me they'd charge me a re-stock fee if I had to bring the Mini back. I pressed the point that Apple should know if a monitor it made works with a computer it made. The rep asked around and we both searched the web and then she was able to confirm it would work. They really need a list of acceptable monitors. If anyone locates such a list, please let us all know!

  • Am considering buying a Time Capsule.  But all specs I read about it (re: printing) is how to hook up a printer via USB connection.  Need to confirm...that a wireless printer will work with the router feature of the Time Capsule.  I assume yes...?

    A wireless printer connects to the network just like your computer, or iPhone/iPad, etc. connects using wireless.
    The printer must be set up intially to scan to "find" available wireless networks, then your specific wireless network needs to be selected. Then the password for the network needs to be entered.
    Once the printer is configured to join the network, it is always connected to the network. No further configuration is required.

  • What dongles will work with a macbook OSX 10.6

    Hello.
    I have an old Macbook (2006) 13 inch and I have upgraded to Snow Leopard and the system is running OSX 10.6.8 and I am wondering what dongles will work with my Macbook.  I am moving to a studio that doesn't have an internet connection and I think this is the only way I will be able to connect.
    Thanks

    I just cleaned the drive with a CD Lens cleaning kit, it looked like an ordinary CD but had two small brushes on it, a small amount of ethanol on the brushes, pop it in your superdrive, DVD's are now recognized
    Was just a dirty laser, weird how it wrote CD's and not DVD's though, anyway, problem solved.

  • What wireless printer will work with ipad2?

    I am looking for a wireless printer that will work with ipad2?

    Those that will work without any additional apps (the printer and iPad juset need to be on the same wifi network) are listed on this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356 - i.e. they are AirPrint enabled
    Some printer manufacturers also have their own apps in the store which add support to more models, and there are also third-party printer apps in the store (but an AirPrint enabled printer would probably be better as you don't need additional apps for them).

  • What keyboard will work with os10.5.8

    Which keyboard will work with os10.8.5, I don't mind if it's wired or wireless? Thanks

    Most any USB keyboard will work with your Mac Mini.
    I have been using a couple of Logitech MK120 - USB Keyboard & Mouse Combo's with iMac's and Mac Mini's for years.
    The key funtions may very (the Command and Option keys are reversed and the Volume up & down keys may or may not work) depending on what keyboard you get.

  • What versions will work with Windows ME?

    I currently have Firefox 1.something on my aging Windows ME system. My e-mail provider recently upgraded and consequently, I need to be using at least verion 2.0 of Firefox.

  • Which epson wireless printer will work with airport extreme (can not find out from epson)

    three systems in use Win 7, Mac lion and vista.  Former epson printer WF 600 would not link with my new airport extreme router despite multiple attempts through epson.  Does anyone know of a wireless printer that will work?  Thanks.

    I had the same problem. It was fixed by running the silly app downloadable from their support page: http://support.lexmark.com/perl/support/support.cgi?ccs=229:1:0:0:0:0
    Here's another way, through CUPS:
    1) http://127.0.0.1:631/
    2) Administration tab
    3) Add Printer
    4) Give Name, Location, and Description (pretty inconsequential)
    5) Select device: Internet Printing Protocol (http)
    6) Device URL: lexnet3://192.168.5.110:1 (the parts in bold must be there, the ip add is probably different)
    7) Make: Lexmark
    8) Model: 3600-4600 series (if this isn't there, you need to get the driver from Lexmark)
    That should do it.
    The printer will be in your system preferences.
    The port number and the "lexnet3://" is the interesting part. Without them, I don't think you'll be able to get it working.
    Good luck
