Title: Epson 3880 printer driver
Post by: tom b on August 29, 2015, 10:36:50 pm

I've just bought a new computer, I've dowloaded the Epson 3880 printer driver. When I've tried to install it I get this message,“EPSON Printer.pkg” can’t be opened because it is from an unidentified developer.

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Sounds as though you need to uncheck the box to allow MAC OSX to install from third party developers

Ian is correct.  As an alternative to permanently changing that security setting, you can control-click the package file and it will override the restriction for that one package only.

Thanks, I've been really spoiled by great IT help at work, retirement has its problems. Love the LuLa community!

I (and, I think, Apple) would strongly recommend the latter course. The protection that GateKeeper (I think it is) gives is quite reassuring, and having to control-click, choose "Open" and click a button for only the first occasion an application is run is a minor inconvenience.
