Good Day:
I just thought I’d add that, with most printers and scanners these
days, you can usually plug the device right in, and the Mac will take care of
finding the driver on the Apple servers. This doesn't prevent companies from
releasing their own Mac software, but you generally don’t have to go looking
for driver discs or downloads before using a new printer or scanner. At any
rate, that has been my experience.
