Digital BW, The Print

Jo,
Are you using the driver which can be downloaded from epson's site at 
http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/support/supDetail.jsp?
BV_UseBVCookie=yes&oid=14402&infoType=Downloads 
I'm not sure the whole address fit up there, so it's epson's site 
under downloads, driver for the OS X, dated May of this year. 
I'm very curious to know, because I'm strongly considering getting a 
Mac (I use a PC now) but I've been told by another friend that the 
2200 does not work in OS X.
Scott
