PowerPC :: Loading Xerox Phaser 6200DP After Leopard
Sep 17, 2010
I thought I'd upgrade from 10.4.11 to 10.5.8, Leopard. All went well except now I can't load the print driver correctly to use all the printer facilities. Yes, I went to the Xerox site, downloaded the drivers then through System Preferences looked for the printer to add. Can't see anything that looks like a Xerox, nothing in Appletalk. Go to more printers and it gives me the option of HP IP Printing, two Epsons and a Canon under auto. So I look at Manual. I did get it to work manually by typing in the IP address, but that doesn't allow me to use any of the features of the printer, just the basic print. I did note that there is something under Windows in the System Preferences, but I'm loathe to fiddle with this until I know what I'm doing. I'm at my wits end. Otherwise it's back to Tiger on my backup which will cause other issues. G4 PowerPC, 1.5Ghz: 2GB DDR SDRAM
I have a xerox phaser 6110 wire connected to my router. My imac is also wire connected to my router. I have installed the latest printer driver on my imac but when trying to print it does not respond. I suspect it's something to do with telling the mac where to look for the printer but my mac skills are very low.
I've tried everything, and cannot get my 7400 Xerox Phaser to print any Adobe document. I'm using CS5. I've downloaded drivers, driver updates, driver patches. I've reinstalled the Adobe programs. I do get a "communications error" on some other programs, but they still print. I used to get this message with the Adobe programs, but they were still printing until yesterday. Xerox says it's a "Mac thing." Adobe's site is absolutely with no support?
We have a Xerox WorkCentre M118 which used to print perfectly ok until we upgraded to Mac OS10.6 and now cannot see the printer on the network or print to it. Xerox do not support this printer for 10.6.
My mates just got himself a g5 mac of ebay and brang it to me to help him get it working.Im no mac expert just use them at work and have a mac book, but no more than him on the subject so trying to help!In the product description of the item it said it just needed a start up disk to work, i have no start up disk for it so cant test this right now.Is this common with macs? im sure my book came working right away with out this trouble?
when i press the power button the led lights up and makes 'the mac on noise' and apears to be working, the display doesnt do anything and it sits there sounding on but doing nothing.is it possible that the machine has no os installed?has my mate been ripped off and paid for a broken mac?im out of my depth here, ta
I have 2 Xerox 7345 copier/printers in our office and none of the macs will print to them. Xerox claioms they are compatible and I have downloaded the drivers they supply. When I go to print, the mac looks like it is printing, but nothing prints out. Other printers work fine from the same macs. The mac on my desk is a power PC G4 running OS X 10.4.11.
My office just received a xerox Workcentre 7345 and our iMac's can't print from Adobe CS3. They can print from every other program, just not Adobe. The computer I use is a PowerPC G5 and I don't have any issues with it. All of the Mac's are setup the same, have the same operating system and we are on a shared network. We also use the Accounting Feature where you enter a code into the print dialogue box. I am perplexed. I called Xerox tech support and they have no idea what it could be either.
My PPC G5 computer is currently connected to two monitors via VGA adapters, and lately when I scroll any window on either of the two screens, or resize a window, I hear a faint clicking sound through my earphones. I also hear it when I load a new web page (using either Safari or Firefox). The images seem to click faintly when they load. I'm on Mac OS X version 10.5.8, on a Dual 2.5 GHz PowerPC G5 with 8GB DDR SDRAM.
Until yesterday, my iMac G3 slot is working fine, but today, I can't power it up. When I press the power button, the light just flash and then went off. I've opened it up to check the PRAM batt and also checked if there are any shorts on the logic board. All looked ok to me. The HDD is working fine and I supposed the power supply unit is fine too.
Would the 1 GHZ model with Tiger and 1 GB of RAM run a 480P Hulu movie onto a 20" ACD old model full screen if I let the movie load for a whole day or so?
I am done with PCs as my PC died on me again....for the last time. I am a total and complete Mac newb and need an older Mac system, as I cant afford the new ones. I see the Power G4 being sold on Ebay all the time but with no operating system. My question is: How hard is to install the operating system if I were to purchase an older G4 and....the software....what should I buy? Where to purchase it? If I purchase an operating system off Ebay....how do you know it is for real and not a pirated copy? Take it easy on me guys....I am a newb with my first post. I had a guy off Craig's List who going to sell me a system...but never to be heard from again. Now....I like the looks of the old G4 and hope to learn more about them....to the point of owning one. I have read that the Power G4 is a nice machine and runs well.
I have a 12" PB and latelly became a nightmare with the stuck CDs. Usually it does not want to eject CDs/DVDs from companies but it handles fine virging cds/dvds. ?? Probably there is some formating in the industrial kind of CDs outside, who knows.just want to open this thread for people with the same problem.If the drive tries to eject but can't and end up mounting the CD again. Just take another CD and when you press eject again push that CD into the slot but just one third and you will see the stuck CD coming out with no problem as well.It seems there is a sensor or something that obviously does not work well. I inserted a virgin CD and the drive worked just fine and ejected later on, but a CD as the installer for my Linksys get stuck and some other softwares too.
I have a charcoal iMac DV SE 500 which won't complete a proper start. The machine chimes and begins to start, and then clicks off again before anything can show on the screen. It won't start in Target Disk mode, and zapping the PRAM (starting with alt/apple/P/R, right?) has no effect. Does this sound like a dead PRAM battery, a dead 'Power/Analog' board, or a dead hard drive? Can anyone give me an idea of how much it would cost to fix, and recommend good, reliable, cheap UK repairers It's not worth much, but I have a friend who'd love it if it can be restored to life, and I'd like to get some of the files off it if it's not the drive.
I software updated my iMac g5 (powerPC 1.6 OR 1.9GHz), with the mac OSX updated(170mb), and it never fully completed the download, said it had problems with the package. So I restarted it, and now its just stuck on the blue screen with the grey box (where it loads the IP extension, etc).
I have a g4 slot loading drive and I am fulling aware the outside casing would be wrong... but that isn't much of an issue, I can replace the panel/casing section with a new panel to take care of that... i just want to know if it is possible as far as hookups etc are concerned.
I turned my iMac on today and it starts up to the blue screen with the welcome screen but the loading bar doesn't load at all and it just freezes. Nothing has changed between today and yesterday
I'm wondering how much life is left in my 900 MHz G3 iBook (v2.3 with 256 MB). I only use it for web browsing, word processing, and minor media storage, but it's definitely showing its age. Web pages take a while to load and streaming video's too slow to be usable. Would a RAM upgrade solve this, or is it even worth the investment?
This seems to be a very common situation with the ibook g4... but maybe someone has some advice for me since I cannot log in at all even with my ram problem.
Doing the Hardware test i was given this error:
ERROR CODE 2MEM/1/4: DIMM1/J31
I have searched this code on google and it turns out to be a problem with my ram.
The big problem is that when turning on my ibook, it shows the grey apple screen, loads to the loading screen. This screen loads everything except the last thing, which says "Loading Login Window".
I'm new with this, My ibook plays the little loading tone when I turn it on but nothing else seems to happen. No more lights on the board no nothing the only thing that does s that it change the color of the charger plug, play the song and on the bottom where it goes the battery turn 3 lights like if it where loading something, I guess it means there is power in it. Also if n that moment I click on the mouse does like if it were doing something.
I am desperate to find the correct driver for the p205b docuprint printer I know that the one on the fuji site is wrong and you need to install a driver for another model as I found this in a forum last year and successfully installed on another mac but now I don't know where I got the info from.
I have a 17" PB, 1.33 ghz with 1.76gb ram. In September it gave signs of the hard drive failing. It would crash right after booting and then not boot at all.If I booted into target disk mode i could still access the files. I backed everything up and did many versions of trying to reformat / reinstall my OS to no avail. When Leopard came out I went through the process again to see if that might help but it didn't. Today I replaced the HD and now it still won't boot at all. It goes to the grey apple screen with the rotating loading icon and stalls. I've let it sit there for 10 minutes or more.
Usually, I have my downloads folder (from my external NTFS drive) be a stack in the dock. In Leopard, it would usually load up after a log out, or restart, but with Snow Leopard, it just doesn't seem to load after, like I said a moment ago, logging out or restarting. I have to manually drag it back down every time.
I got this circle spinning on boot as usual, but after I while there is progress bar which is really going slow. When it finishes it dissapears and OS is loading normally. What's that ?
I was messing with Privoxy and now when I try to access the 'Proxies' tab under System Preferences -> Network -> Advanced -> Proxies nothing happens; the 'Proxies' tab is just gray and no options load. I tried to follow a Lifehacker guide and I messed with the config file for Privoxy. I never got it to work but the 'Proxies' tab was loading whenever I tried it. Then all of a sudden it didn't load anymore. Restarting and uninstalling Privoxy did not solve the problem. I am able to get online; there doesn't seem to be any effects of that tab not working. I'm just irritated and want it to load in case I do want to use it some day.
Info: iMac (21.5-inch Mid 2010), Mac OS X (10.6.8)
