If you read the original email again you will see he wrote that one is a G4 dual... There for they are not the same computers... It seems to me that maybe this printer/scanner is designed to run on an Intel Mac because he said it runs fine one that one (G4 Dual) and not the other one... Do you know anything at all about engineering??? Not only can I fix and figure this stuff out I can also make them, this is what Machinist and Toolmakers do, based on what the Engineers draw up and put on Blueprints or program the CNC (Computerized Numerical Control) machines... Who do you think make computers??? Manufacturing Companies!!! CoolKat
