Performance with Mac OS X One reviewer noted challenges with installing printer drivers for Mac OS X. Any other users have good or bad experiences using this printer with Mac OS X?

I've only had my MX850 for a week - and yes the installation is confusing - especially if you plan on using it as a networked printer, but once I got it figured out it's working very well under 10.5 Leopard. Have printed from various apps (Preview.app / Adobe InDesign / etc.) without any issues. The network scan works great. So far I am pretty happy with this purchase with exception of the network setup which is very confusing (you have to hook a computer to the printer via USB before you can use it over the network! :/)

I just finished installing the software CD and setting up through Ethernet on my iMac OS X 10.4 Tiger and it all went smooth. As Christopher mentioned, you first must setup through USB. If you follow the instructions in the long colored guide sheet and networking setup guide, you should have no problems whatsoever. Goodluck! =)

The brochure says that Newsoft Presto Page Manager is not compatible with 10.5 Leopard. Do you need that to scan to PDF? That's the main task I'd be using this for, but if there's no compatible 10.5 Leopard software, I don't want to buy it. Thanks

Yes, it does. Matter of fact, I'm a loyal Mac user. Besides, this printer has build-in wireless capability. I haven't try yet, however.

1. Printer, yes....downloaded software from Canon labelled for 1.5.8 to 1.6 something ... prints fine, shows photo of machines, and a subpar local web page status monitor - but have NOT YET got the scanner to send to the imac, though it does to a Windows machine on the network, ... installs software for Window didn't help Mac2. Am downloading scanning software from here ... NO IDEA how successful I will be! http://mac.softpedia.com/dyn-postdownload.php?p=124419&t;=0&i;=2

My issue is that there are not many printers that work with OSX 10.8.4. Is this printer Airprint capable from an IOS device, and does this printer work wirelessly with OSX 10.8?

http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/printers_multifunction/laser_printers/imageclass_lbp6200d#DriversAndSoftware There are several versions of drivers for Mac OS, from the newest Mavericks all the way back to Mac OS 8?! Once you have the drivers installed (your Mac may do it for you automatically), you can print to this printer. And yes, I am answering this question from experience.

All I know is that the printer is fully compatible with Mac Snow Leopard. A quick call to their help line would answer any questions.

That's not a lot of info, but if you're using a Mac, I found a really helpful link for getting the best driver installed. Solved all of my little problems.http://www.macworld.com/article/2684309/the-trick-to-finding-the-right-printer-driver-for-your-mac.htmlHope this helps you.

Not sure about the mac issue, I use a PC. It will work with a printer if the printer is bluetooth enabled. I personally haven't seen any that are, there are a lot of wifi enabled printers, not sure about the bluetooth....

I am currently running 10.9.5 on my macbook air and I had no issues what soever with wireless setup. Had the air and my iPhone printing in under 20 minutes together. Just follow the steps as listed in the booklet and you shouldn't have any issues.

I don't use Mac but if you had a 5610 that did work, this should work. HP's driver software however has proven very buggy on every HP printer I've had, and uninstalling it to do a clean reinstall is very difficult. Generic drivers work better for me, but don't provide all the features like fax and scan. But Macs aren't supposed to have problems like this I hear.

No. There are no Mac drivers made for this printer. I have searched high and low.

I've installed this product (MP620) on my iMac and it works wonderfully. The "quick start" instructions that come with the product have Mac set up instructions. I've had no issues and am really enjoying the printer.

I have no problems accessing from older Mac Mini (Snow Leopard 10.6.8) and from an Intel z77-based Hackintosh (Mountain Lion 10.8.3). Of course it also works from all our desktop, laptop, and netbook PC's. I also access from our Android phones and tablets using the Dell Mobile Print app. Love this printer!

Works with Mac Lion just fine. In the advanced printer settings you get the option of two sided printing with different 'binding' options. Also shows as an option from iOS5 iDevices.

im not a MAC user, but according to Genius there's a driver for MAC OSX, i cant confirm if its compatible whit those specific version of the MAC OS (http://www.geniusnet.com/wSite/ct?xItem=53323&ctNode;=174 ) , in my experience Genius tech support its great and the best wayto know if it works whit snow leopard is to ask them

of course, it is actually very easy to install the driver on a Mac (i suppose what you mean is "install a printer driver" right?). Last time i did it the mac scanned the model of the printer and installed itself. it may vary with different brands or models.
