Has anyone found a workaround driver for using a Xerox WorkCentre PE220 Series printer with Mountain Lion?
MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)
Did you try using the provided generic drivers, Postscript or PCL?
Could you help me with finding a generic driver? What does "provided" mean in your note? The drivers that came installed in the machine do not work. Xerox does not have one for OS X 10.8.2.
Your ideas are very much welcomed.
Lisa
OS X comes with a Generic PostScript and Generic PCL driver, and you can select those from the "Print Using" (or "Use") menu in AddPrinter when adding the printer.
Hope this helps.
John -
My "Use" menu only contains Apple print drivers. And Canon drivers, from the location I set this machine up. None for my home use....which is a Xerox machine.
Not being on the menu, I don't know how to acquire this generic driver.
Any further helpful hints?
I appreciate your thoughts and help.
Lisa
LIsa, you don't have these choices when (re-)adding the printer?
NOpe. Wish I did. How can I get them?
Those come with the system. Has the system been modified? The ppd is here:
/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/P rintCore.framework/Versions/A/Resources/Generic.ppd
YOU DID IT!
I didn't think the system was modified, but perhaps it was. I followed this path and found it and it prints. You are brilliant. Thank you.
