I am hoping that someone here can help me, My parents Windows PC died and I have given my them my old B&W G3 (upgradded to a 800Mhz G4 with a sonnet card). My parents just bought a Lexmark Z730 printer and I can't get it to work under OS X (10.4.7), the CD that came with the printer is windows only and I can't locate a drive on their web site. I have used my Mac with many different HP printers and have never had to install a thing but the Lexmark printers seem (at least not all of them) supported. Is there any generic drivers that i could use or dose anyone have any info that might help me. I would love for them to use OS X but they are not going to go out and buy a new printer just to make it work. Sorry for being so long winded and thanks for any help.

Return the printer to whereever they bought it and have them buy a printer that has drivers for MacOS X. You can see what printers are supported by going to the Apple web site and clicking on the Apple Store Tab. Any printer there should work.

That will not happen it will be the Mac that goes (That is a shame). My mom is already weary on learning a new OS and also the printer is over 30 days old and they bought it from Sam's Club. I was hoping for some generic driver support (I think is call Gimp) that would be able to opperate this printer as it seems to work very well for HP printers. and I was looking forward t not having to be her windows support any more :(
