Hey,
I got this printer from a friend who has a late 2011 MBA running Lion 10.7.2.
We demo'd the printer for me and was working perfect thru his wi-fi network so I picked it up for next to nothing.
Make a long story short, came home with it and found out the drivers are only available up to 10.6.
I have already updated to 10.7.3 on my MBP 15
Tried to load the available drivers and got the message this software is not compatible with this OS.
So here's the mystery, how was it working on his network with his MBA running 10.7.2 ?
I asked my friend how he set it up, and being that he is a total NOOB worse than me, he has no clue. He said it just worked after a few days. I find that hard to believe, but yet it happened.
Could the update be preventing the install? Or did he just have some stroke of major luck?
TIA
