I just recently bought a Ricoh SP 112 printer. It only came with windows drivers. I talked to Apple and Ricoh and they couldn't help. Does anyone know how I can get this printer to work on my iMac? I have 10.10.1 Yosemite installed. Are their any generic drivers I can use to get this printer to print?
Any help is appreciated! Thanks!
iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)
A generic driver is likely to cause issues - you will probably find that some items you print don't come out correctly.
If possible, return the printer and get one that is compatible with OS X. That will be the best thing for you to do in the long run.
Follow the steps here as best you can and see if you can get the printer installed: Mac Basics: Printing in OS X - Apple Support

Thanks Lyssa. I wish I could take it back but I bought it online and it will cost me just as much to ship it back compared to what I paid for it.
Might be worth trying to sell it to someone, too - even if you take a loss, it'll at least save you the headache of dealing with it.
Try installing it & print a few things and see what happens. Worst case scenario is the printer won't be seen by the computer at all.

I have a Ricoh SP 112 Printer, I cannot find a driver. Any recommendations?
