I gave some geeky instructions on the Dell issue here and a couple of posts below that.
More specifically, in the case of the Xerox drivers in this thread, after the user mounts the disk image from Xerox, the long, long Terminal command would be :
mkdir ~/inflate; cd ~/inflate; xar -xf /Volumes/6010\ 6000\ Print\ Installer/6010\ 6000\ Installer.pkg; /System/Library/CoreServices/Applications/Archive\ Utility.app/Contents/MacOS/Archive\ Utility ~/inflate/installationfiles.pkg/Payload; cp -R ~/inflate/installationfiles.pkg/Library/Printers/PPDs PPDs
Hopefully there will be enough in these posts (Dell and Xerox) that we can help others without PAHU having to keep an infinite number of PPDs on a server
