Install Drivers
- Use one of the following two methods to install the drivers:
- Get the drivers from the install CD (in the computer closet). Insert the CD and drill down to the correct location (making sure to choose the correct OS X version). Run the .pkg file. Or...
-
Download the driver. Go to http://support.ricoh.com/bb/html/dr_ut_e/ra/model/mpc40/mpc40en.htm, then scroll down to the correct section for your operating system (Mac OS X 10.6, etc.).
- Note that for 10.6 (on Eric's MacBook Pro), the CD version did not work and so we had to download the latest version
- After downloading, Run the .pkg file.
