Well, Ray, I managed to get it connected to my mac without sighted help. I can see everything so far in the print and fax and scanners section of the system prefs. However, I am still trying to figure out how to get it working on my network via my airport extreme. I do have it networked on my mac and my husband can access it on his mac as well. hth, Cait
