A growing number of people who have just updated to Snow Leopard are
still
running into printing problems now that Apple has dropped Appletalk
support
in OS X. Appletalk was an old, proprietary communications protocol
that
was
rather slow and inefficient, and in OS X 10.6 Apple removed it in
place of
more modern printing and networking protocols.

thanks for the link. Appletalk is a very old protocol, you and others
should be more surprised that it was supported as long as it was.


Printing in OSX with many consumer printers is horrible. The printers
that have worked for me are the Epson CX9400, my trusty HP 1200 laser
jet and my newest acquisition, my HP CP1518ni.

I have gone through at least 5 printers (Lexmarks and Samsungs) that
were horrible, even using CUPS. I don't know if it's the same on the
Winders side, but my printers and I just have a difficult time getting
along.

Even though it's a driver issue, I wouldn't buy anything but an HP and
my second choice would be an Epson.

As for Appletalk, is Edwin kidding?

edwin's not kidding, just amusing himself with a bias bird.




Do you see Edwin here,

Yes,

Do I think you're a
Lush?

Yes

Do you see a stranger staring back at you in
the mirror?

No, none. But you do.



You most likely have the DT's.

Not hardly
