For some reason, when upgrading to a new major release of the Mac OS,
it is sometimes necessary to delete the printer setup for your
printer in Print & Fax preferences,
1. Open System Preferences, click Print & Fax, and then click Printing
2. Select the printer in the Printer List, and click the Delete (-)
button.
3. Download the latest driver and installer for your printer from:
http://otiel.notlong.com
Now reinstall the driver, and add your printer again to get it to work:
1. Follow the directions that came with your printer to set it up and
install the necessary software on your computer.
2. Make sure your printer is connected properly to your computer with
a USB cable and turned on.
3. Open a document to print, and then choose File > Print.
4. Choose the printer from the Printer pop-up menu.
5. If you don't find your printer, choose Add Printer from the
Printer pop-up menu, and click More Printers. Choose your printer's
type from the pop-up menu in the dialog that appears, select the
printer, and then click Add.
