I bought this a few years ago and it only came with windows software - you could try their web site to see if the have a version for Mac.

All I know is that the printer is fully compatible with Mac Snow Leopard. A quick call to their help line would answer any questions.

Sorry Sam, having only ever used this printer with Windows software I could not honestly answer your question. From my experience of using the printer for more than five years, it is extremely reliable and does a brilliant job. I have printed hundreds of CD's and DVD's with it.May I suggest you contact Primera with regards to your operating software, I feels sure they would have a model compatible with Mac.Cheers Harry.

Sam, I have no problem running this on the three different macs in my studio. I run a Mac Pro, MacBook Pro, and an air, and all three use the printer just fine.

Sam - I'm using this with Windows-7. I looked on the installation Disc which came with it and saw no reference to Mountain Lion: Try an inquiry direct to Primera, since this IS the most *premium* way to label discs I've found. Every one looks "factory printed" and it sure beats those stick-on paper labels -or- standing for hours feeding individual discs into my HP-7550. Less than a minute per full-coverage graphic photo labels to print, and based on my personal use well under 25-cents each (ink cost) printing 75+% area from outer to inner (small) hub...

Just wanted to let anyone who has this printer that it is compatible with OSX 10.6. Just finished downloading the newest drivers from the Canon website and now i can use my scanner again! Thank you Canon!

http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/printers_multifunction/laser_printers/imageclass_lbp6200d#DriversAndSoftwareThere are several versions of drivers for Mac OS, from the newest Mavericks all the way back to Mac OS 8?!Once you have the drivers installed (your Mac may do it for you automatically), you can print to this printer.And yes, I am answering this question from experience.

All/most printers will work great with a Mac, without installing any special software. I personally don't use a printer anymore, and don't have any suggestions, but I do know of others who use the HP Envy. It is wireless for use with iPad.

My Print Shop version was 3.0 to work with my Macbook Pro. Be sure your Print Shop is for Mac. When I upgraded to Yosemite, I also had to upgrade Print Shop

Works with Mountain Lion. However, the new Logic Pro X has the same feature built in.

Yes. The Mac version is (obviously) formatted to be fully compatible with all Macs. You can very easily format it to an exFAT file system (look for tutorials online) to make it work seamlessly with any modern Mac AND Windows computer.BTW, consider upgrading from Mountain Lion to the latest OS X Mavericks. It's easy and free.

Yes, it's compatible with Mac! It works perfectly. Rather than use the included cd-rom, I downloaded the most up-to-date version of the software and drivers from the brother support site. Easy as pie- I was printing within minutes.

It should work fine, except for burning the labels with LightScribe. I was never able to get printing working under Leopard or Snow Leopard.

Yes. Just use the "add printer" function in OS/X. I use it on both a PC and Mac.

I am having the same issues, as are others, so it is not just your printer. It works fine when the print command comes from a PC running Windows, but does not work with a Mac. This is pretty sad since I purchased it directly from an Apple retail store specifically to run on my Mac.

Derek, I can't answer your question since I use a Mac. My review of this printer was initially very favorable. However, there have been several problems (several of its functions quit working and IT was of little help). Bill

It also works just fine with my iMac, running the latest Leopard (10.5). In fact I bought this printer at the Apple store.

If it is a recent printer, you should have no problem at all! Recent meaning in the last few years. If it has USB, it will work for sure. Enjoy your new Mac!

Very. There are two different drivers you can use, one is built in to the OS (CUPS Driver, if that means anything to you, if not, it's not important); the other, downloadable from Brother directly. The driver from Brother may work better in terms of duplexing from some programs, but either is sufficient for all tasks. Brother also has supported Macs for as long as I can remember, and were quick to get updated drivers at every OS upgrade as well. For Macs, I believe Brother probably has the best support of all the major printer manufacturers. EDIT: Just saw the price (689 as of 2/17/14), there are other available models that will also be compatible, and $400 cheaper.
