  Why 'for mac'?

  • ya. why?
    – pango1/7

    probably cause he/she has a mac. hello!– akrokdesign2/7

    I hope you're being sarcastic, akrok. If not.. *slap!*– detritus3/7

    More printers don't work with Mac, actually, and it's annoying.– Jaline4/7

    Really? I'm... lost for words, if that's the case - I take it all back. *slaps self silly*– detritus5/7

    But they do well in networks and can pick up things more quickly.– Jaline6/7

    So it evens out. I think installing printers for PCs is more annoying.– Jaline7/7

  Canon iP4300 or whatever, all my Epsons die at the worst times (and apparently they no longer offer support) but my Canon has never let me down.

  • Scratch that– the iP4300 won't be good enough for photos and stuff most likely. It is reliable however.– ismith

  Med size Espon like a 4880 with a RIP... if you are printing CMYK and actually need it to match something...

  ... do the Canon's print CMYK well?

  I'm sorry but most printers aren't supported by Macs. Sorry.

  Just goto the Apple store and ask for a rec - than do some researching on your own.

  Stay away from EPSON or HP.

  • 'Stay away from Epson'.
    Care to qualify that statement?
    I'd completely disagree and I was a Canon head 'til last year– detritus

  I had an Epson scanner one time, and it was a world of bother. Had a lot of trouble with an Epson printer too. So now when someone mentions Epson, I get a RICTUS OF RAGE!!

  Epson + Mac = bad things

  Epson stopped supporting most of their printers when used with macs, and all of mine have broken down (I've had about three, each of them replaced several times through warranty until they stopped). I suspect that Epson makes utter shit until you pay for pro-level equipment, but the only experience I've had is a terrible one with their entry level stuff (R300s and such).

  • This is why I recommend the Canon first...– ismith1/2

    i agree. also, canon seals the ink containers whether the printer is off or on.– _salisae_2/2
