Apple computer print driver

What’s the best workable print driver for the apple desktops? Is there one that works for everything? Looks like there system is Ventura 13.2 Seems every time I try , nothing works….. Thanks for any input Dave

What machine are you printing to? I have had great success with the Sharp PPD. Make sure when you install it it finds the correct PPD for your unit. Not the generic driver or airprint (unless thats enabled)

Good luck

Make sure postscript is enabled. Not sure if it was standard or an option on this model. Check sim 22-10 to verify. If you don't have postscript it won't work.

my guess is it’s probably not in there . Is it an easy install? File or board ? I also just read the new Ventura 13 is not supporting ps anymore?

Just looked at the brochure. It's an option. Would need a product key to enable it. Not sure what the cost is for an MX-PK11. Are you a Sharp dealer? You will need access to their product key site.

I have loaded Sharps latest and greatest onto the new Mac OS without any issues.

If i remember correctly from 10.14 onwards there is a "Generic PCL driver" that comes with OSX/Mac OS. It is very limited but it better than nothing. Good luck
