[QUOTE="RadDave, post: 1589467, member: 234411"] Hello - I'm assuming that you want to print 'wirelessly' from the MBPros - correct? If so, the easiest way is to have a printer that is [URL="http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356"]AirPrint Compatible[/URL] - check the link for a list of printers that have this Apple proprietary technology - I have a MBPro w/ the most current version of Mavericks - prints via Wi-Fi to my Canon Pixma printer.. Of course, an alternative is to 'wire' (e.g. USB) the laptops in some fashion or put the printer on your network, e.g. I have an older Brother laser printer (not an AirPrint one) also that I can print to 'over the air'. Is the printer connected (i.e. wired) to a computer - there are apps that can be placed on a computer and allow the laptops to print wirelessly - I use to have one on my old PC (now have an iMac) called FingerPrint from [URL="http://www.collobos.com"]Collobos[/URL] - they offer a subscription service now, so check out their website to see if that might work? Finally, Canon may be able to suggest an option either w/ their own software or a network solution - good luck. Dave :) [/QUOTE]
