Apple updates OS X printer drivers

Cnet.

These updates are for OS X 10.6 and include all the printer drivers supported on OS X from the respective companies.

Apple uses its Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) in OS X, that uses generic driver sets that are enhanced to support specific features and functions of individual printer models, so as new models come out Apple can more easily tweak drivers to work with them.

The Samsung Printer Drivers 2.2 update for Mac OS X includes Samsung printing software that shipped with Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, notes O'Grady's Powerpage.

The 26.86MB download requires Mac OS X 10.6 or later to install and run and can also be snagged via Mac OS X's Software Update feature.

Finally, the Brother 2.7 Printer Drivers update installs the latest software for Brother printers or scanners. The 136.55MB download requires Mac OS X 10.6.0 or later and can also be snagged via Mac OS X's Software Update feature.
