Question #2: What else does Brother need to do to make my printer visible iin OS X? I've suggested that he needs to add an OS X driver for my printer, but he claims it is not necessary. In any case, it is not visible on his computer. ============================================ Specific help will be greatly appreciated. Please, no anti PC, anti-Apple posts?
