Device driversBuilt-in support

Depends on macOS system drivers. BMDE user must install drivers offered by macOS (e.g. when an iOS 13 device is connected for the first time). Ignoring driver updates and relying on older drivers may cause unexpected issues. (For example, preventing erasures on iOS 13.x devices.)

Apple Configurator 2 is needed to install before using SW. Reboot is needed after updating Apple Configurator 2.

PrintersBuilt-in supportUser must install printer drivers manually.
