| HP 2100 and Mac OS 10.4 Issue
All, I have a Mac Mini with Mac OS 10.4 installed. I am connecrting to a HP LaserJet 2100 printer over our LAN network. The printer is connected to another PC (through the serial port) on the network running Windows. The Windows PC has the printer shared on the network. The printer is only a 2100 and not a 2100M. It does not have an ethernet port. I am able to connect to the printer but whenever I try and print I get jibberish. I have updated the driver from HP's website but to no avail. Please help me to get the Mac to talk to the printer properly. Thanks in advance, Shack  |

I downloaded the recommended linux software, but the printer still won't work - when I hit the print button, the document spools as if being sent to the printer, but then disappears.

Download and install Gutenprint for Mac OS X: http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php If you check under the link for supported printers, you'll see the HP LaserJet 2100 listed as being supported.

If all else fails, www.printer.com can advise you on a great new printer. =) There is a lot of camparison information and details on ink. Cheers! Eric Rivas |
