IMPORTANT

These instructions for Macs apply to new printers/copiers as they are replaced throughout the school. They The instructions will still work for old devices, but using the driver you are instructed to use below will be different. Unless you know the correct driver for the old device you connect to, be sure to only create new printers for devices that are listed in the New Devices Already Installed/Replaced table here SON Printer Replacement Project.
