I installed Snow Leopard on an external drive for evaluation purposes. I may end up running Snow Leopard as my main system, with Leopard on an external drive. The occasions that I need to print double-sided re rare enough that I can live with restarting when I want to do that.

My other issue printing with black cartridge only might be a non-issue, just a matter of things being worded differently. But there is some value in changing my separate printer and scanner to an all-in-one machine.

Yes, I have it, it was automatically installed. But it does not support all functions. Specifically, it does not permit double-sided printing.

Also the old driver has an option to print grayscale using the black cartridge only. I am just not sure it may be a matter of wording, not a change in behaviour whether Gutenprint and hjips which is available elsewhere do print plain black text using only the black cartridge.

Roughly, delete existing drivers, install And he doesn't say this, but I found it was necessary when you want to print, open your program in bit mode. A bit of a hassle, but not a great one, and if it means one doesn't need a new printer, very well worth while.

If necessary, make the appropriate substitutions. Enter the command given below to determine if any volumes on the flash drive are mounted. If there are mounted volumes, then use the sudo unmount command to unmount them before proceeding.

Here, an assumption is made that the name for the flash drive is sdb. If necessary, make the appropriate substitutions in the rest of the steps.

I couldn't find a method that worked as Disk Utility doesn't cooperate with OS But then I discovered that the same method I've been using to create bootable linux thumb drives works with the Be sure to use a standard installation DVD.

What OS are you running that you'll perform the necessary operations from? I've downloaded the file to a Windows 10 laptop but I can transfer it to a Macbook running Catalina, which I assume will make things easier.

I'll edit the question. Have you tried Googling, e. What Mac model are you planning to use this on? Are you trying to create an installer drive one you can use to install Snow Leopard on some other disk , or a drive with an installed copy of Snow Leopard that you can boot from and run normally -- sort of like a live CD?
