photo printer drivers?
Authored by: sr105 on Mar 24, '06 09:43:06AM

Ugh. I had so much hope reading this hint as it describes a problem I have when printing from my powerbook to a HP Photosmart 7760 which is connected to the USB port on my Airport base station. It has always bugged me that the HP driver for mac is so riddled with problems and bugs, while my fiancée's WinXP computer prints perfectly every time using the Bonjour drivers. I just print all of my photos from WinXP now.

Maybe someone else has had this problem and solved it? Or... for my next printer purchase, anyone know of a site rating how well a printer works with a Mac?

Thanks.

I was having the same problem with my HP LaserJet 2100. Just on a whim I tried another HP drive that had CUPS printing with it. For whatever reason it worked. I think CUPS has something to do with printing postscript to a non postscript printer, but not 100% sure. I think I got those drivers from GIMP-PRINT.
