On the pull down menu for model the list did not contain
okidata/okipage, but did have a USB option. Selecting that still
gave me no window to select the driver. I am wondering where the
"successful" installation of the new driver went to!!
Will try a search.
Merv
go to sys pref/ printer/fax
click the + to get the printer browser
then........hold option & click on more printers
where appletalk is showing pull down to advanced
for printer model pull to your okidata/okipage
an additional window should show available drivers
select your driver & add
good luck James

I am running OSX 10.4.11 on an iBook.
Connected to the iBook is an OKIPAGE 8 printer which is functioning.
In System Profiler it says the printer driver is 1.1.0
Last night I downloaded version 8.4 for OSX 10.2 and above.
I ran the installer then went to System Preferences - Print & Fax -
Selected the OKIPAGE from the list - clicked on + but could not
find a way of getting to the new driver.
Another path was not to click on + but Printer Setup. The pull
down menu was only active for Name and Location but nothing in the
window could be changed.
Am I on the wrong track?
Help please.
