4.0 out of 5 stars Mac Compatable !
I had the printer on the network and printing from Mac OS X (Snow Leopard) in 10 minutes. Use the Driver that comes with the Mac, "Epson 9-Pin Series". I can not compare the printer with other impact printers, but works fine.

Though the Amazon product description for this printer lists compatibility with OS X, be aware that according to Epson tech support, that compatibility is limited to OS X version 1.0 only. It will not work with any subsequent version (as this is being written the current OS X version is 10.4.9). Again according to Epson tech support, there are no plans to offer a printer driver for any OS X version beyond ver. 1.0.

This review is from: Epson FX-890N Impact Printer with Networking (Office Product)
The info was not clear as to the limitations of this printer. It accepts single sheet feeds only and not stacks and this is not realistically implemented on the printer. It is only suited for tractor feed paper.

Networking is problematic and required the services of a computer technician who struggled for four hours to get it working.

The printer as a hardware device seems OK, but the software is sub par. Also, in a mixed Mac-PC environment, it makes what is already a difficult situation, even more difficult to implement if you want one printer for the network.
