Is Linux scan copy Machine compatible with Mac computers?

Hello,

Normally, a Linux supported machine won't be compatible with a Mac supported machine unless there are certain drivers that will support the syncing of such machines. In your case, a Linux scan copy machine wouldn''t be compatible to a Mac computer. You still need to install your Mac computer with drivers that will allow the printer to work on the Mac despite the compatibility issues. There are a lot of drivers out there which are searchable on the internet that you can utilize. You did not specify the machine so we cannot exactly tell which driver it needs. Just take a minute to search it on Google, and I'm sure you will find one. Well, you can also try this link too:

http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/index.php

It is a driver which is compatible for Linux and Mac operating systems.

I hope this helps.
