694333 2008-08-02 08:31:00 Trying to set up my mates new Mac os10.5. Loaded driver from cd, no joy. Loaded drivers from OS install discs , the printer went nuts and printed 10 lines per page of nonsense..for about 30 pages before we pulled the plug. beginning to think the printer is shot !
D/loaded drivers from web..no joy.
How do you get a printer to talk to your computer ?
Its an Epson printer bought at the same time as the Mac.

Thanks.
