This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />I enjoyed the psc 2210xi with OS9 but when I went to OSX the trouble started. hasn't worked right since!
Not w/ 10.1 thru 10.3.2. Drivers from new to 6.3.4 - none worked right
Works fine in OSX Won't work in Calssic.. Unfortunately, I still have a number of 9 native apps. tried every new driver as it came out and talked to tech support. They really seem out to lunch. didn't acknowledge reality of problem, just sorta muddled around w/ 100 questions, and no real answers.
Tempted to get cheap printer until problem solved.
Anybody sorted out problem?
This driver is poor

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />It is unbelievable that a company like hp dares to provide SW of such quality under its name.
1) I question that it is necessary for a SW of such functionality to consume 46.1 MB.
2) The way the SW installs on my computer is very importunately.
3) I still have to work to find a way to set-up the SW in the way I want it. E.g., it is not obvious for me how to get rid of the dock icon after restart. Removing if from the start-up items didn't work. I don't want to dive into Unix for this.
4) I don't like the way how the functionality has to be accessed in the GUI. E.g. Scan picture and scan document leads to the same window. Also: all this crap about hp gallery, send scanned document per e-mail and so on. I don't need it.
Result: Maybe hp sells good printer hardware at a competitive price. But the driver SW is ridiculous - at least for Mac.
where is the readme file?

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />The drivers, once installed seem to run fine. The annoyance, is all the extra junk that gets installed...various 'directors' and managers that seem tied to the main drivers. I can't be bothered to find out by trial and error which components I can delete and which ones I can't. Hasn't anyone told HP that iPhoto exists? Also, appears to be no evidence of the change list anywhere, contrary to what HP says on the VT listing here.
Won't detect printer

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Exact same problem as Normal1. Tried everything to get this to detect the printer. So irritating as version 6.0.5 worked fine before HP 'suggested' I upgrade. Now even the old version won't install. Sent reports to HP twice but they don't even bother to answer. Poor indeed. One star for the fact I can at least still print.
