Could anyone help me figure out how to print from a MACBook Air laptop to the MP C3503 without the Postscript option?? I did not realize there are no PCL drivers on the Ricoh website for MACs and so I did not tell the customer they needed to order the Postscript option - and now they don't want to pay for it! I see there is something on a Linux website but it seems like it is extremely archaic - something about downloading three different files.I am familiar with how to set up printing on the MAC but not sure how to grab the drivers once they are downloaded since there are three.

I will check into Airprint, thanks Art.
Here is what you need to download to have printing from a MAC Mountain Lion 10.8.4 without having the PostScript option:
Download the following in this order and install from
here:
macosx/pxlmono | The Linux Foundation
Ghostscript for Mac OS X 10.3.x (Panther) - Mac OS X 10.7.x (Lion)
Foomatic-RIP for Mac OS X 10.3.x (Panther) - Mac OS X 10.7.x (Lion)
pxlmono 1.9 for Mac OS X 10.3.x (Panther) - Mac OS X 10.7.x (Lion)
After downloading and hitting the down arrow next to each file in the lower leftcorner of the screen, I double clicked the icon and ageed to the terms and installed each file.
However, the files are grayed out in the downloads folder so I can't install them. I anyone knows why this is happening I would apprecaite it!
In order for AirPrint to work, the machine requires the Postscript option.
You do not need PS option to air print. However air print is not available yet on the 03 series. We are waiting for firmware update before air print is available.
