Will this work with my HP 4500n? I'd be printing from Macs (and Windows possibly) through my cable provider's Netgear N600 Dual Band WiFi router.

I trust it does work, however, it may be affected by the distance between wifi router and N300.

I can't be 100% sure that it will, but depending on the distance and structure obstacles to overcome, there is no reason that it will not!

I'm not sure I understand your question? First let me preface with, this is not a print server. This is a wifi to LAN adaptor. It is the equivalent of having a long Ethernet cable between you printer or other networkable device and you router/hub/switch, without the cable but using wireless in its place. If your printer is network aware and your computer has the correct proper software for its OS to print to a networkable printer then you should not have a problem.

Yes. I use a PC and my wife uses a Mac. This router works fine. It also works with my print server, network attached storage, network media player, Wii, Nintendo DS, and Nokia Internet tablet.

I have the HP Envy 4500 and it works great with this computer. All wireless printers should work with this and other chromebase and chromebook computers as well. This was my first time using wireless printing and I love it. It wasn't all that difficult to set up the wireless printing, even for a non computer geek type like me.

Hi, We had some challenges in getting this printer set up. I have a PC and my wife has a MAC. We have FIOS internet coming into our home with a modem in the basement. There is an ethernet connector to our offices and a wireless modem (MAC brand). I had an older AIR port, the type that plugs into the wall and has a USB connector. We connected the HP to that and then connected that to the wireless network. I got help for sure. It can be done.

I would Goggle Brother Printer MFCJ4710DW wireless set-up for Mac. When in doubt just Goggle it (:>Here is the PDF of the manual. Go to the index and check out wireless. They also offer FREE support & the Tel. # is 877-276-8437. Page # 5 is about Mac's. Pages 133-134 address network issues. Hope this helps.!

Yes. This is the default printer for my MacBook Air and it works great! It is also shared on home network with two Windows PCs. Fast and very reliable for all.

In general, Lexmark and Canon make USB inkjet printers that work well with both Windows and Mac. IMPORTANT: while most of their USB printers are Win+Mac compatible, a few of them are not. If possible, try to find out either by walking into a store and finding the compatibility on the box or reading comments or checking the manufacturer's webpage about the printer. For instance, this URL is for the Canon Pixma MP495. http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/printers_multifunction/photo_all_in_one_inkjet_printers/pixma_mp495 Click on "Specifications". Roughly 2/3 down the webpage you'll find "OS Compatibility". I haven't tried HP on an Apple product and I keep finding very mixed reviews about their Mac drivers, but apparently Apple thinks they're good; I spec'd out a new iMac yesterday and the top 3 recommended printers were all Hewlett Packard. I guess it's because only HP is using AirPrint at the moment. I haven't checked Epson in a few years but my experience with them is that they make excellent Windows printers but the Mac drivers from Epson are horrible and will cause you to hate your printer. (I'm hoping they've fixed this but if they have I haven't heard about it.) Good luck!

Don't despair. I have a home wired network running only apple computers. I got the printer networked for the wired computers and a MacBook Pro. The driver you need is just the PostScript driver from the Printer site on Canon USA. If you are just using USB it is easy. Once you download the driver it will appear in the long menu of print drivers at Canon LBP6670ps. Use this one instead of generic print driver. Networking is a little tricky for Apple. I'm not an IT person but I figured it out. The printer has to generate an IP address for itself. It is shipped with the networking turned off. On the control button on the top of the printer you need to get into the networking menu and turn some things on. The e-manual gives information on turning on DHCP. Once it is set up it works very well.

Using its built in Wi-Fi connection, I have printed from a Mac, two iPads and an iPhone. I don's see how three compters would not work as well. Hard wiring might be a hastle.

I do not know. I have both Mac and Windows computers able to print to it. My guess you should be able to as an IP printer (Print to the IP of the print server in windows like I do for my Mac)

Duplex printing does work for Mac OS. What you need to do before you print a document is:1. Select File -> Page Setup2. In the area labeled Format for: select the HP printer. It defaults to Any Printer but you need to change it.Then you click Print and choose two side printing. I did that and it worked for me.

Hey what's going on. Well I just seen your review and I have Macbook Pro 15.4 and I sent this up fairly easily. Yes this will work wirelessly with your mac and PC. You have to set this up first with the USB cord first though. From your computer to the printer. I set my wifes first to set up the wireless and run the CD after that it was on the network and ready to run. I then set my Mac up to this and it found it pretty easy. Just remember it doesn't come with the cord from Amazon so that's why I had to buy that cord separately.

We use Macintosh computers for our printer. We have it linked it to our airport which is the router for Macintosh computers. All our computers can then print from anywhere in the house.The HP technical people are helpful. You need to tell them it's an business printer, not a personal home printer. Whatever they can't help you with would involve your network company. The machine is designed for Windows machines first so I would imagine it supports Windows 7 or 8.

as long as the cable you have running from the printer has the same blue (male) end it should work just fine - i ran one from my macbook pro and PC to the same printer - just had to have printer software on both systems.

If you'll go to the Apple site you'll be able to find a list of printers compatible with Mac operating systems. I've had no problems with my printer although it is a little tedious to get wireless communication set up. Make sure you have the latest Canon driver for your computer.

Recently I successfully networked this printer from a Dell Inspiron and an iMac. So far, we have had no issues with printing from multiple computers.

Yes, my wife uses it for her MacBook with no problems. Great printer and hasn't jammed once, in fact, we bought two. Also, she loves the all in one cartridge and they are relatively inexpensive. However, I did have problems loading the drivers for my pc based laptop with windows 8. I still haven't figured that out.
