What's a good printer for iMac 10.5.6?

I need a printer for my new iMac. My old printer doesn't work on it. It considers it Classic.

My two oldest printers were built way, way before Classic. They're still in daily use with my newest computers and with my Airport network. If you're amenable to doing a little bit of legwork you can probably get yours to work too.
Here is HP's latest driver for your Deskjet 932C.

This driver improves printer connection reliability and stability, as well as print speed and print output improvements. It supports Deskjet printers with USB connectors on the printer, as well as network printing for those models that support Network printing.
Nothing Classic about it. HP says it supports OS X through 10.4.x but that's not surprising coming from them. It will probably work with Leopard too.
As someone here pointed out, the "greenest" printers are those that don't go in the trash. Many new printers are little more than cheap disposable junk.

  • What's a good printer for office and photo?

    I was looking into the canon mg6220 i think but i have heard people say it uses ink quickly.
    Right now i have the epson workforce 845, but im not sure how great it is with photos yet
    www.crazyfaith.smugmug.com

    Hi jaenagle,
    The PIXMA MG6220 provides excellent photo quality and also makes a great office printer.  If you need faxing capability as well, we recommend the PIXMA MX892.  More information on the PIXMA MX892 can be found here:
     http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/printers_multifunction/office_all_in_one_inkjet_prin...
    The amount of pages an ink tank will produce will depend on the the print quality selected, the type of paper selected, and the type of documents being printed.  To conserve the amount of ink being used by the printer, you will want to ensure that the paper type selected in the printer driver is PLAIN PAPER unless you are printing photos, labels or envelopes, and that the print quality is set to either FAST or STANDARD.  If you print more black and white documents than color documents, selecting the grayscale printing option in the printer driver will reduce the amount of color ink used by the printer. 
    I hope this helps -- if this didn't answer your question or issue, find more help at Contact Us.

  • What's a good book for getting started?

    I've been doing web design in HTML and ColdFusion for almost 3 years. It's clear that ColdFusion is on it's way out and I need to learn J2EE/Java/JSP etc. I have a few questions:
    Java is a term I've heard associated with C++ and other types of programming as well as Web design. Are the Java/C++ Java and the Web Java basically the same type of language? Is the Web Java and JavaScript the same thing? I'm very confused!
    What is a good book for getting these types of questions answered and getting started in J2EE/Java/JSP? There are quite a few variations of script languages out there and I want to make sure I learn the right stuff, ie the stuff that employers are going to be needing.
    Thanks!

    Here is a free online version of a good book:
    http://pdf.coreservlets.com/Core-Servlets-and-JSP.pdf
    Print it off or read from the screen. Otherwise, there are several good Java books out there. What I would do is go to the bookstore and thumb through a few books. Depending on what type of book you want (example based or theory) find the books that you think would satisfy your learning style. Write down the names and authors, go home and buy them used online at Amazon for tremendous discounts. This way you can buy several versus just one.

  • What is a good printer to get accurate color printing a photo in iphoto?

    What is a good printer to get accurate color printing a photo in iphoto?

    If you need really accurate color, you will probably need to create your own profiles and use aperture for more control over the printing process.  Ctein is starting a series of posts on digital printing which you might find helpful:

  • What is a good strategy for keeping the OEM GRID up and running?

    Hi,
    What is a good strategy for keeping OEM GRID up and running? Currently, we have grid installed on one linux64bit box with 4 cpus and 8 gigs of RAM, oms 10204, repdb 10204, agent 10204. In addition to using this oem grid for notifications and performance monitring, we are also using this oem grid for scheduling over 700 jobs running over 30 targets.
    What is a good strategy to have to backup the grid so that when this box goes down, we can restore and then recover the grid? Please lead to white papers or documentations. Thank you.

  • Finding a printer for imac G3 using OS 9.0.4

    I have a refurbished iMac G3 slot CD running OS 9.0.4. I got this more or less free and am trying to set it up for my sister (low income and new to computers) to run email and Apple Works). I need to identify a cheap printer she can use but all the ones I can see are OS X only. I used to be a Mac user but for the past 6 years have been using PCs, so am a bit out of the loop technically. I don't really want to upgrade the machine, which is running really well and very clean right now, till I am sure she will use it and am looking for low cost solutions. Can anyone help please? sory if this has been asked a million times already.. (I'm in the UK btw )

    I agree that used is the way to go, I recommend looking locally and make sure you can return it if it doesn't work for you.
    I don't know if you can do this with thrift shops where you are, but I have had good luck with my local Goodwill thrift store when I wanted to get a printer for my daughter. I found a very nice Epson 740 that I already had the driver CD for, because I owned one, and that I know will work with OS 9.whatever. I cheated and brought a Wallstreet with the driver already installed to the store, so I could test it, and the printer cable. (I was getting the printer to go with a Wallstreet so there would be no USB.) I would imagine, although I have not checked, that most older printer drivers would still be available online to download from the manufacturers' websites.
    I don't know if you need to update to OS 9.2, it wouldn't hurt, but it would definitely be a good idea to get up to OS 9.1, it's much more "finished". I still use 9, I like it a lot and I still don't think it was broken or unstable or any or that. The only reason I'm using X 10.4 is because that's what came on my iMac G5!

  • Analog to Digital Converter-- What's A Good Product For My System?

    What would be a good analog to digital converter for Final Cut Express HD 3.5 on a Mac OSX 10.4 system? I've used a Canopus on a MacPro with Final Cut Pro before and liked it, but wasn't sure what would be a good product for my macbook. I've looked at the Canopus advc-110 and 55 but am not clear on the difference and if it would work with what I have.

    The ADVC-55 is capture only. It includes composite & s-video inputs and stereo audio inputs. Firewire output.
    The ADVC-110 is bidirectional (meaning you can both capture and output through it - this is a very good way to monitor your video during production as you can see the actual quality on a monitor/TV rather than just your computer screen, which has limited capability to show you the actual video quality.) It includes composite & s-video inputs and outputs; stereo audio inputs & outputs; Firewire input & output.
    The ADVC-300 is also bidirectional and includes composite, s-video and component video i/o (D1 connector) inputs & outputs; stereo audio inputs & outputs; Firewire input & output; and software that enables you to tweak its video settings. Helpful in cleaning up particularly bad analog videos.
    I've used these things for years and they all work great. I do not believe there is any difference in the internal conversion hardware ... The primary differences are support for one-way vs. bidirectional conversion; input/output connectors; and the software that comes with the ADVC-300.
    If you have basically clean analog video, any of these units will be fine. You can use any analog source (VHS deck, camcorder, DVD player, etc.) and would typically use iMovie or Final Cut Express to capture your video on a Mac.
