I installed this printer on my mac os x that is running tiger 10.4.1. I had no problems and then the printer disappeared and when I tried to reinstall it, it said that I needed a cd rom 2 for the mac. The printer didn't come with another cd and I can't get it to work. Can anyone help. I am used to windows and this mac has me so confused that I am beginning to hate it. Emails are disappearing also. I still use a pc laptop so I know what is disappearing and I'm not getting all my emails either. The mac is a G5

Looks like your printer is not yet supported in Tiger, unfortunately!

It's too bad you had to jump into mac during the very beginning of a new operating system, but over time things will work themselves out.

Let me know if this link helps you.

After spending 2 days trying to get this printer back, I had success. I do not know what I did or how I did it but it is now working. Thank you for trying to help. I have an appointment on Thursday to learn how to use this computer. I hope it helps.
