10.6.6 and Konica Minolta printers

Good afternoon. We have iMacs with both 10.6.4 and 10.6.6. and several Konica Minolta printer copiers. The drivers are working fine on the 10.6.4 iMacs but jobs sent to these printers from the 10.6.6.iMacs fail with an error that indicates the drivers are out of date and need to be updated either via Apple or K-M.

I'm wondering if there's some difference between 10.6.4 & 10.6.6 that would account for this problem? Any help gratefully received.

Hello Brian,

There has been some issues with certain printer drivers and different builds of 10.6.6. Canon currently has an issue with their UFR2 v2.01 driver and build 10J3210 which is included with the MacBook Pro. The normal build of 10.6.6 is 10J567. So I am wondering if the build for your 10.6.6 iMac's is something other than 10J567?

If they are using the normal 10J567 build and the KM's are using the Fiery controller, then the issue could be related to Rosetta (for installer issues) or 64bit apps (the Fiery drivers run in 32bit mode so the print dialog menus have issues with apps running in 64 bit mode).

Related Konica/iMac question: Trying to scan from a Konica Minolta Bizhub 350 to newly purchased iMac. Downloaded drivers & can print, but cannot scan. Setup a shared folder on MacHD in which to place scans. Read an earlier reply from Pahu (copied below) and followed steps but cannot see the Bizhub in the dialog box as noted below. Any ideas? Thanks!

With Snow Leopard, only AFP is enabled by default when you enable File Sharing. To get FTP enabled, you will need to go to System Preferences > Sharing > File Sharing and select the Options button. In the next pane you can select FTP and press Done. Now back at the File Sharing view, you will see a dialog that shows the URL for other computers (and the Bizhub) to use to connect to this Mac.

When you configure the file sharing on the Mac you want 'see' the copier in this view. The Mac sharing is for enabling the copier to connect to the Mac. If you want the option to browse for the shared folder, as you would do with a Windows network, then you need to enable the Windows protocol via the Options setting as mentioned in my other post that you copied. With SMB enabled and the account to use also enabled, it will then be possible for the Bizhub to browse the local network and see the Mac and the shared folder.
