Has anyone successfull installed an i6500 for OSX10.4 (Tiger)? I have a new iMac G5 10.4.3 and have problems aligning the print head of my new 16500 - consequently very blurred printing.

Canon specify operating system requirements of Mac OSX 10.24 and HIGHER. I have downloaded Canon's recommended latest i6500 printer driver software from their website (which is for OSX10.3x), but no improvement.

Hi mart,

do you have Classic OS 9 on your iMac or is it just Tiger ?

Does the Canon printer Utility open up, or is it just not doing what you expect it to ?

I have the same problem with my Epson R2400, there are no drivers for 10.4.3

Just spent over 2 hours on a mac help call centre, and they gave up.
I did everything posible in the past 5 days to get my printer going.

It run's perfect on 10.3 b.t.w,

Hi there !

Have you tried the Epson Support site...

From what I can see the drivers for your Printer were last updated on the 20th October 2005, do you already have these ?

Can you add the Screenshot so we can see it...

...and give a 'bit' of a translation ?
