Is anyone having problems with the new Xerox printer driver update from Apple? My 8700S is no longer working with QuarkXPress.

I allowed a System Update that included a Xerox Printer update. I am running a MacPro 10.6.8 with Quark 8.5.1 and a Xerox ColorQube 8700S. EVERY was working perfectly before the "update" but afterwards anything sent to the printer from Quark would stall the printer. I went to the Xerox website and downloaded their Printer Driver and tried again. Now I could print from Quark but I can NOT get to the printer window to change the type of paper, etc. So, the problem still persists.

Should I try going into Time Machine and trying to find the Xerox Print Driver in the Library folder?

Should I upgrade the whole system software? (I wouldn't mind doing that AFTER I get this magazine off to the commerical printer)

Should I upgrade to Quark 9?

Any help here would be apprciated.

Thanks - Rob

Several, Mac OS X (10.6.8), I work with several different model Apples

Same problem here on last Xerox Printer Software Update both on Quark 9.5 & 10.(10.7.5) Xerox Phaser 7500DT. The easiest way to revert is to download the old driver from the Xerox website and it will replace the newer one when you install it. I see there is another update offered today but it is he same version number as the last one so avoid that too.) With Apple/Xerox updates, I say if it isn't broken don't fix it.

I had the common pstoxrps filter failure on one mbp. Deleted all Xerox items in libraries and reinstalled driver from Xerox (not automatic download from Apple). Worked immediately
