APB 4 Pal: Mac Print Fax Spins Forever Without Finding (HP) Print Driver
Hi, I've got a friend with an urgent problem because she needs to print and can't, so hopefully we can resolve the issue this morning. We thought her printer was bad but it's not- there's a problem in Apple Print Fax. She is using a 1.25 GHz 1.25mb RAM Q16 G4 15 PowerBook that was at OS 10.3.9 and she paid for me to upgrade it to Leopard for her. Leopard in general seems to work fine for her aside from this. The problem occurs with her old HP multifunction printer as well as her new HP printer. When she goes into Print and Fax to add a printer, the printers both show up as connected via USB, and it's a live reporting because if we unplug the printers from the usb, they disappear from the list of printers we can choose. In both cases she has installed the HP software first- from the HP site for the G55, from the new CD for the new printer. We also know that the HP G5 printer Gutenprint driver (for her older printer) comes pre-installed with Leopard's other HP drivers, so it's almost as if she didn't need to install the HP full river set except that she might need the scanner also. When she CHOOSES the HP printers, that's when things go weird. Normally you have to wait a second for the Print Using dropdown to pick the HP driver or, if no driver is found, it should give up and let you choose one- right? Well, the little wheel never stops spinning, the system never settles on the correct HP driver- though we know they're installed- and therefore we never even get to choose the driver ourselves. I don't really care that the system FIND the right driver- is there a way to get it to NOT look for the driver, so that we can pick it ourselves from the list? I also have had concern that with the new HP universal print driver (I think it's become that on Macs as well), the computer actually find TWP printer drivers for each printer- the exact one and the universal one- and so it just hangs for lack of being able to decide on the correct driver. Of course that could all be in my head.. Has anyone seen a problem with Print Using neither landing on a printer nor giving up? Is there a way around it? NO desire to use a generic LPR or similar workaround when the printer is fully visible to the computer via USB. Thanks in advance.

When you said 'replaced' the 256 did you mean put the existing one back in, or replaced with another 256 SO-DIMM?

Kyocera C170N vs. Xerox 6180N Color Laser Printers?
Anyone care to share opinions on the relative merits of these two (affordable) color laser printers? The former is available at Buy.com for $200. The latter at Staples for $250. The Kyocera seems to be too new for there to be any on-line reviews available. I already have a plain black laser printer, so color printing without the hassle of jets that clog after inactivity, and ink that runs in humidity, etc. is my main concern. This will be all home use. Maybe six-year-old whims, some decals for my projects, that kind of thing. The MacWorld review I found for the 6180 gave it a good rating on image quality. The Amazon reviews seem fairly happy about the image quality. It's difficult to rate their standards compared to mine though. The other big concern is consumables cost. Some folks say the Xerox consumables go more quickly than they should, but there are variables to account for in that too. Again, no consumer comments seem available on the Kyocera. The toner cartridges seem to cost about the same but Kyocera claims their carts yield 4000 pages at 5% and Xerox claims 2000 pages at 5%. I think that means that the Kyocera would be cheaper, but again, without any real world recommendations, how can you be sure? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Emulators seem pretty good these days, so I don't know if that difference really matters. We still have some pre-OSX machines, so having postscript as opposed to just OSX-print-driver support is important. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Re: G4 Sawtooth Upgrade
In Terminal type: ioreg -n uni-n | grep device-rev Press 'Enter' and you will get a device-rev number, look for seven zeroes followed by a digit. If the device rev is 0003 you cannot run a dual processor; any other number you should be able to. Or use the utility found here: http://newertech.com/tech_support/uni-north.php On Nov 26, 8:42 am, Jasiu [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: For some reason even though I am is OS X I have a problem running that program.

According to OWC, dual processor upgrades reguires a Uni-N 7 or later Sawtooth board See: http://newertech.com/tech_support/uni-north.php to determine if your Sawtooth is compatible for dual processors. --glen --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

I do know it works under OS 9 and established my Sawtooth was dual process capable . --glen I ran a couple of the different utilities I found on the site and both ran fine in OS 10.4.11 That's good to know. Are your referring to the Newertech site? What utilities did you find? --glen I used the one found on this page: http://eshop.macsales.com/tech_center/index.cfm?page=Static/uni-north.html And now that I look at what I did, I found I ran the same utility twice. But is is OS 10 and I can't see why it would be inaccurate, unless OWC is simply trying to sell dual proc upgrades. I doubt they would remain in business long if that were the case.

Re: Further Upgrade Discussion?
I have a powermac g4 DP 500MHZ gigabyte ethernet. I have been thinking about upgrading the processors and video card. for about $500 on ebay you can get a DP 1.8GHZ upgrade or for about $250 a single 1GHZ upgrade. for hard drives: I was able to put two 80GB hard drives and one 250GB hard drive in mine. The early powermac g4's had a limit of 128GB per HD. using the Speed Tools ATA High-Cap driver i was able to bypass that limit. Overall a great machine and very upgradable.

I've maxed out the RAM, added a DVD-RAM, a flashed Nvidia 6200 video card, a second IDE drive, and a couple of msc. PCI cards. Right now it's not a bad machine, but just a little doggy using Open Office or on certain web sites. I'd like to keep the machine since it will dual-boot. If I were to invest a little bit more, what would give me the most speed for my upgrade dollar: an aftermarket 1.5 GHz processor, or a PCI SATA card and drives? What has your collective experience been? Enquiring minds want to know!
