I'm beginning to hate the Internet Of Things... I have a Sierra MacPro that's operating within a private, dedicated, secure LAN with no internet access. I'm trying to hook up an HP inkjet printer to it, but the HP installation software REQUIRES an internet connection to phone home. No internet? No install! It fails! WHY???
The HP install program comes up with an ambigously phrased generic blurb about how it sends back all kinds of info: operating system, locale settings, IP address, and who knows what all else. WHY??? Is there an inkjet printer (Brother, Canon, Epson) that can be installed without phoning home? -Carl _______________________________________________ MacOSX-talk mailing list [email protected] http://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/listinfo/macosx-talk
