Dear All,
I still feel quite green in the world of Mac computers so forgive for
the following simpleton's questions.
When connecting peripheral devices to my Macbook pro, do I need
current drivers? To be specific, I have two devices which I used to
use on the Windows side: epson perfection 1200 usb scanner which I
bought in 2002, and Canon I560 usb printer which I bought in 2004. I
have found Mac os 10 compatible drivers for both on the Internet and
tried to install them but without much success. Do I need these
drivers? Epson drivers are supposed to come with some utilities giving
one some extra functionality. I found runninginstaller programmes for
these two drivers pretty inaccessible. In fact, in both cases while
installing them, they hung on the install/quit screen for ages and
ages and I crudely terminated them. As for the epson driver, there is
some epson monitor application which I cannot remove from my
application folder as I get the message that the application is
runnig. I can't see it running though. How can I find it and confirm
it so that I can remove it?
Thanks for your help in anticipation.
Simon
