- May 30, 2019 It's more about OS and much less CPU features (with a few exceptions of course). Each 'flavour' is built against its matching SDK (10.5, 10.6, 10.4) and can be run on a later OS X version since a Mac OS X version usually fulfills runtime system dependencies for software compiled against earlier SDKs.
Nailed to the door of the Castle Church in Wittenburg, Germany on October 31, 1517, Luther confronted both indulgence salesman Johann Tetzel and the Catholic Church. Luther's 95 Theses for Olive Tree presents the document in both Latin and English.

I own a very nice, but very old high-resolution PostScript printer, an HP LaserJet 4mv with the optional 11x17 paper tray. I hadn't been able to use it for a long time because HP stopped supporting it, i.e. there were no OS 10 compatible printer drivers.
Just recently I found a driver here <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1893>. My printer is in the list of supported printers. So I downloaded and installed the driver. But when I went to Print & Fax under System Preferences, all my computer could see was my old inkjet. I tried hitting + to add the LaserJet. No luck. So then I gave up and called Apple Tech Support.
First they asked me what my connection options were. I told them SCSI (don't laugh), BNC (looks sort of like a cable jack), LocalTalk and Ethernet (10Base-T). Since Ethernet is the only one of those choices that also exists on my MacBook Pro, we went with that. No luck.
The tech then told me that it might be possible to give the printer an IP address by connecting it to my Airport base station, but wasn't allowed to assist me with that because it fell beyond the scope of the support Apple is allowed to offer. He suggested that I call HP. Yeah, like HP's really going to help me with my 12 year old printer. *sigh*
Then I found this advice which sounded promising ...

... except my Airport (also 12 years old) is already using Appletalk.
To answer the obvious questions:
Why don't you just buy a printer that was made in THIS millennium?
Why don't you AT LEAST upgrade your Airport base station?
I'm unemployed (read 'destitute') and have to make do with what I have.
Any advice?
