    Just thought I'd stick my oar in a bit...

    The IT guys may not be so happy after a few weeks of MAC users using PCs. What I'm getting at is the Cottonwool-type user protection that the beautifully solid OSX environment provides.

    IT people with micro$oft certificates seem to be set in their ways. But saying that, this problem does seem to be a result of some underlying political "us v. them" attitude. Some people will do anything to break up the manotany of the "have you tried turning it off an on again?" daily cycle.

    Oh, and you could always try to get the drivers from Canon:-) If there aren't any available, and you need to use that printer, this has to be a failing of whoever chose to buy the printer. ...IT?
    If you bought a toaster and it came with the wrong plug attached, you wouldn't change all the plug sockets in your house would you?

    • Apparently there are no drivers from Canon that will work with Leopard. They were quite happy for us to use our own printer until it broke down and IT tried to fix it by sticking a butter knife in it.TruffleShuffler
