It works fine with OSX, and there are no limitations that I'm aware
of, as long as you're using the latest driver. The driver is fully
compatible and consistent with the usual OSX print dialog box.
I've had various Epson printers and have always found them to be
quite good. Not always the best software, but OK. Early Canon inkjets
were terrible. I had a wide carriage B&W that I used for CAD drawings
that was almost unusable, but fortunately GCC repackaged it and wrote
a new driver, and it showed what could be done with the hardware.
Unfortunately, it cost 2.5x what the Canon did. But it worked. I used
it for 8 years.
