Hi,
Does anyone have a recommended printer to use with my macbook pro? I have a Lexmark 7300 which although recognised by the computer will not print. I believe this to be an issue of driver update tardiness by Lexmark.
Snow Leopard has been out for quite some time, there shouldn't be a tardiness issue, unless it's a old printer and they no longer support it to force you to upgrade.
I would fire off a request for a driver update, if they claim it's no longer being supported (and if the printer is less than 7 years old) I would tell them "I'll never buy another Lexmark printer, and I'm going to recommend to everyone your printers don't get updated for Mac's"
Usually that grabs their attention, if you reach high enough up the corporate ladder.
HP is usually very good about updating even their old drivers, been my experience anyway.
