Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Have Not Tried

Would be great to see support for this product on the Mac OS 10.5. I'm able to print directly via USB for now, but without a new driver I haven't found a good way to print remotely to my HP connected to Time Capsule. Any advice? Let me know.

You can print to Time Capsule using the HPIJS drivers available here:

<http://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/MacOSX/hpijs#Usage>

You must install all three packages, and there is an order to the installation:

1)Ghostscript
2)Footmatic
3)HPIJS drivers

If you do this order, then attach the printer to the Time Capsule and restart the Time Capsule (pull plug with printer powered down), and then replug the Time Capsule and power up the Printer. Now when you go to System Preference>Print & Fax and use the "+" button to "add printer" you should see the HP PSC 1210 listed as a "Bonjour" printer. It should automatically find the new HPIJS driver, but will select the one for the 1200 rather than the 1210, so change it to the 1210.

IF it doesn't automatically find the driver, it's located in the Library>Printers>PPDs>Contents>Resources>en.lang>HP-PSC_1210-hpijs.ppd.gz which you can manually select using the "Other" button. Once the correct driver is installed, you should able to print.
