Hi,
I've issue printing after upgrade from Catalina to big sur. The error shows ":invalidfont. Offending command:show". My printer have PS card. I've tried reinstall driver. same issue happen. Before update to big sur its working fine. one more thing I bit curios after update the new driver(version 1.8) its still same verison 1.3. How to update proper driver for Mac OS.

Go to the printer manufacturer's website to download the latest drivers for your printer.
Epson - link to help page, individual drivers will be by device
HP - by model
Lexmark - latest drivers listed are for 10.14. Check individual model.
Additional feedback is on this thread for Lexmark MX517.
Samsung -HP discussion indicates PCL 6 drivers are compatible with at least some Samsung printers.
M1 printing issues - third party reference for dealing with older printers on M1 computers.
I first contacted Ricoh about this issue in mid February. They sent out a tech to update the firmware in the printer, but that did not work. I was told by Ricoh that they need to update the PPD Driver, in order to fix the problem. They gave no estimate on when the driver might be finished.
Please notice that the drivers on their site give the false impression that they are compatible with Big Sur, but if you look closely, they were written in May of 2020. Here is an example. https://support.ricoh.com/bb/html/dr_ut_e/rc3/model/imc3000/imc3000.htm
I worked with Apple Support on this issue for a bit, and for a while we had a workaround solution, where I added the font that
had the problem into my Font Book.

already download and update. i'm using MFD ricoh im c2500. i manage to print doc if using generic pcl driver. if using actual driver it's getting error invalidfont.
You need to contact Ricoh. I'm just a volunteer here. And know how to locate links.
Then I would contact Ricoh support. If they say it should work with your OS, they need to follow through and find out why it isn't working.
Did the MacOS 11.4 update just fix this? Its not mentioned in the release notes anywhere, but it seems to be working for me.
ok..i will waiting your update with ricoh..thank you.
And what was the font that needed to be added?
Montserrat Family fonts.
Montserrat is not part of the standard Mojave font base. Your additional fonts may have come from a pre-press application that you use.
Google Docs uses that font.
