To print with Mac OS 9, you need to use a PS printer driver provided by Apple Inc. with the Mac OS, via an AppleTalk network.
If you are using a Macintosh, you cannot use the PCL printer driver.
If you are using the UFR II printer driver or PS printer driver in a Macintosh environment, you cannot print documents via an AppleTalk network.
If you are using a Macintosh, you can send faxes only when you are connected via USB or you are connected to a TCP/IP network. For instructions on using the fax driver for Macintosh, see "Sending a Fax from a Computer (Mac)."When you are using Mac OS X 10.5/10.6, you can only print via an SMB/CIFS network if you are using a PS printer driver provided by Apple Inc. with the Mac OS.
