Where do I look?

Hi all,

Well tomorrow is the BIG day. My Mac Pro will be here
My question is this "is there a web site I can go to and see if printers, scanners etc. will work on the Mac when i plug them in"? That way I will not have to round up all my disk drives, and I have quite a few.

Thanks for your input.

From what i've read on various sites the Mac comes with nearly all the drivers you need built in.

Like mike said, more likely than not, you should be able to plug in your peripherals and have them work right away, no drivers needed.

I would suggest plugging them in, and only using driver discs if a particular device isn't working or if you can't access all of its features

It's not like a PC, often things that say they don't work with mac actually do (excluding programs, but hardware often does). I have a few things that say they don't support mac. That often only means that it doesn't include a disk for it. Mac is a lot smarter than PC. For things like the older webcams for instance that don't support mac, you can find drivers that Open Source has made (and often in conjunction with the manufacturers). Another food for thought is "things that you pay for as extras in PC often come as standard for mac" Like Kash said, just plug them in and see if it works or mac sees it (which it usually does)

Well this is the list of the Leopard included printer drivers.

Congrats on the new toy!

thanks folks, yes both my printers are listed. Can't wait untill tomorrow.
