I want to make sure my printer (a Pixma iP8720) prints what I'm seeing on my screen (Macbook Pro) accurately. Will this help me do that?

Yes. It's only half, but IMO, the important half of the solution. It allows you to easily calibrate your monitor to an objective standard. So what you see on the monitor should look correct on other monitors and by using the correct printer profile, should look good on a printer. It does not allow you to make new printer profiles. For that you'll need to also get their printer calibrator. If it's in your budget, get the set.But in my experience, this gets you close enough that small adjustments will get you what you want, except maybe in critical color match situations.

Go to support.dell.com and see if they lost a driver for MacOS. I am nearly certain that this printer supports MacOS.

I have no idea if it actually has the chipset you're referring to. Is there a way for me to tell via my printer, which is what I'm using it for?

Without knowing what OS you use (Windows or Mac) I can only suggest checking the Canon Website for the "Windows Adobe RGB 1998 Installation Program" http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/printers_multifunction/photo_all_in_one_inkjet_printers/pixma_mg8220#DriversAndSoftware . If you haven't already, you might want to note the latest updates for the other Canon software programs that are used with the MG 6220. You can discover your printer's firmware version by running a "Printing Nozzle Check". The latest version is 3.020. I'd check for the latest firmware updates for your Huey Pro unit and for each of the graphics programs you use to print color projects. You can use the "Custom" settings after you install the Adobe RGB program to adjust the color balance to bring your contrast under control. Check the manufacturer's site for your graphics card (GPU) for updates that may help solve your problem. I use a 24" Dell U2410 monitor that is rated for very accurate color management right out of the box! It was nearly $500 on sale, but it was worth every penny. If you are using Windows 7 64 Bit, use the search window to look up "Color Management" just to cover all the bases. If none of this helps solve your problem, I'd check the Maximum PC Website for their reviews on monitors for graphic color accuracy. Also, and most importantly, I'd use OEM Canon retail ink cartridges when you are looking for high quality color. You're just rolling the dice with 3rd party compatibles. Hope this helps!

If your Mac has those resolutions, it will output them. Whether or not the projector or monitor you are outputting to can handle those resolutions is the real question.

I used it to look up my printer as well and list also said mine is not compatible; however I know for a fact that mine is compatible because I am currently using them with no problem. If it lists it in the description I would go with it.

I am having the same issues, as are others, so it is not just your printer. It works fine when the print command comes from a PC running Windows, but does not work with a Mac. This is pretty sad since I purchased it directly from an Apple retail store specifically to run on my Mac.

Sure will! I can print from my phone and my wife prints to it from here mac laptop. I haven't figured out how to secure the connection but so far my neighbors haven't printed anything to it. :&gt; I really like this printer a lot!

check what your printer is on. The printer can usually work it for you. Brenda

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.

No, the printer will NOT. Your computer, assuming the printer is hooked up to one, will do the work.

It is a color priter, but if you set your computer settings to black and white or grayscale it will print that way.

G. Recipient says.... "After searching the web I found advice that worked. Click your Apple logo, go to System Preferences, Security, Firewall and change the setting to "Set access for specific services and applications." Now the printer should show up on the list and you can finish setup." This was exactly the information I needed to get my MP620 to print wirelessly to my Macs. Thank you!

Yes ...works fine for me :) make sure you change your printer preferences before hitting print.

I set this up last night and it prints fine wirelessly from my MacBook Pro. The trick was to download the software directly from Lexmark--the software on the included CD didn't work with Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6). On the Lexmark site they have software for Snow Leopard that fixed printing. Scanning doesn't work (software crashes) but at least I can print now!

If it is a recent printer, you should have no problem at all! Recent meaning in the last few years. If it has USB, it will work for sure. Enjoy your new Mac!
