Will it share a printer between windows and linux? I already bought one that is for Windows and Mac only.

I did not have to install any software on my computer to make this work, but we are sharing between 2 macs. It is a very quick and efficient USB Switch, where you push a button and it switches the printer from one computer to another. I don't see why it would matter what OS platform you had since it seems to be completely self contained, but I'm not really fluent in Linux hardware like that. I keep mine on top of my printer with a piece of velcro, and the two computers are on either side of it so my partner and I can easily push the button to direct it to our computers. I have not had a single problem with it and its been about 3 months now of full time daily use.

I could never get it to work with my del laptop and my Apple IMac. I went back to just plugging into the computer I needed to print from.

Brother says the printer supports Windows®, Mac OS® & Linux. Look here:http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/BSC/public/us/us/en/model_top/colorlaserpri/hl3075cw_us_as.html?reg=us&c;=us〈=en&pr;od=hl3075cw_us_as I don't have a Mac and can't test the printer with a Mac, but it looks like it will work. Also, the printer has built in BR-Script3 which is the Brother equivalent to Postscript, so even if there is not a specific printer driver, a generic Postscript driver should work.

I use mine on a Linux machine, no problem so far; though I have not thoroughly put it through the paces.

Yea, what Charles said. In addition this printer supports PCL6 which is the HP printer control language so if the HP works for linux then so will any PCL6 network printer.

It is my thought that this printer will not copy on both sides at the same time. I do not require that application for my own use. Would be best to check more expensive printer for that option.

If you are running a compatible Windows system, the printer should work fine.

I only used this with a Windows pc. It you have the setup software it should work. But i am not a linux uaer. I hope this helps.

If it has a USB 3.0 port, runs Windows or Mac OS X (not sure about Linux), then it should work just fine.

This printer works very well with Macs as well as Windows 8. I have several computers at home with different operating systems and they all work well.

Having used a PC with the printer and now having recently purchased a Mac, I find that the response and quality have not diminished even a little bit. I have connected the printer to my Mac wirelessly and I cannot detect any faults.

I don't know. I bought a laptop with Windows 8 and could not access shared files on other computers via wifi in my office. I downgraded to Windows 7 and all is well. This is the office computer with Windows 7 that connects to the Samsung printer. Elsewhere I'm a MAC man and have no problems.

I believe it will work with Linux. I do have a fair return policy if it doesn't work.

It depends which features you need. It does not have a Linux driver, and does not support all the same features in Mac OS and Windows.

I use with pc..im not sure. But most of necessaries work on pc and mac today. This is much simple more than printer.so i think it is going to work.

It has nothing to do with what operating system you have. It all depends on your printer. Is your printer compatible with MAC. If so you get the ink kit made for your printer.
