Printing to Xerox 6500

Hello,
I am having printing issues. My Xerox Phaser 6500DN is supposed to be great, but I can't get it to print nearly quick enough. At the quality that I need, it will only print one page every 4.5 minutes after sitting there saying "processing." The Xerox people think that there is a PostScript limitation in the printer that I can't get around because Xerox only makes one driver for Mac, and it's PostScript. If I dumb down the document so that the photos are bad quality, then I can get it to print faster, but it's still over one minute per page.
So I guess my question is: is there any way I can get a generic driver for this printer that will use a different printer language? Any other ideas? I've been on their customer support phones for over 10 hours cumulatively, so I'm out of ideas.
Oh also, I have two Macs, one running 10.8, the other on 10.7. Same with both.
Thanks all

Are you using a RIP with that Phaser? Or, are you using the Phaser driver? Have you done any Adobe updates recently? What changed since the last time you achieved accurate CMYK prints? What OS are you using? What happens when you print a PDF of the file? Have you tried printing that CMYK combination in other apps? There are a ton of variables that could affect prints. Have you checked the inks? Try running a check on the printer using its utilities.

Mavericks won't print to Xerox Phaser 6300.

Mavericks has my printer in the list of available devices, but tells me that the printer is not connected and won't print. Xerox only has updates to Mountain Line in their driver downloads.
Anyone else having a similar problem?

Update:
Checked the printer Settings to confirm the Printer's address. When I use the Setting to check the Wi-Fi Settings, I get a message saying "This computer appears to have a working Internet connection, but can't find Phaser 6300DN (00L00:aa:95:47:31).printer._tcp.local. You may have typed the address incorrectly.
The address is 00:00:aa:95:47:31 so I don't know where all the parenthetical data is coming from.
The network setting seems to be at the heart of the issue, but I'm not sure how to resolve them.

Acrobat 8 Print Error, Xerox Docuprint Windows 2000

Windows 2000 SP4
Adobe Acrobat 8.12 Standard
Xerox DocuPrint 92C printer
Driver: Xerox Windows 2000/XP Production Printer Driver v 3.7.52 (2004)
PDF file version is 1.5
When I print the first page of the PDF file prints fine. The next set of pages prints a box outline, then fails. The printer prints an error report that says
Error: PostScriptJobAborted, job has error termination.
When I print the same document with Acrobat 7 Std, on the same machine (install/uninstall) it prints fine.
I do know that the Xerox drivers are OLD (2004), but I verified that it is the latest version available on the Xerox Web site.
This does print fine to another HP laser printer (unfortunately I can't use that one except for testing).
I've compared PostScript setting etc, but everything is set the same between the two versions. This seems like I will probably stick with version 7. After searching the forum, it seems like Acrobat 8 created a lot of printing problems.
Any thoughts/suggestions would be appreciated.

Just for the record, in case anyone else comes looking for a solution to the same problem, the issue appears to be with my Kaspersky Anti-Virus software. By setting a check mark against most of the exclusions in the Kaspersky application control for Acrobat Distiller everything now seems to be working OK.
Thanks to everyone who took the time to read my original posting.

Unable to print from xerox phaser 3100MFP

Hello,
I bought a new printer today. Xerox phaser 3100MFP.
So I found driver on xerox.com page, downloaded and installed it (Mac OS X GDI Printer Driver - GDI PowerPC-based GDI printer driver for Macintosh systems running Mac OS X 10.3) Then I used Printer Utility to add printer. I found printer in default browser list (Connection is USB). So I clicked on it, but it did not find driver automatically, so I choosed in menu "Print Using": Xerox and then I found "XeroxPhaser3100" Model.
Then I tried to print some random text, but it said "Opening conection", than "Printing page 1, 60..98 %" and then "Printer not responding" I found out that I get same thing even I do not have printer connect to USB port to my iBook G4 (OS X 10.4.11).
How can I print on my new printer? What can I do to make it work?
Please HELP me.
If you did not understand my english, please feel free to ask me, I am not native english speaker

Hi Martin, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Did you actually get a 10.3 driver? That may not work on 10.4.
Her's a list of drivers I see, and includes a 10.4 driver...

BTW, I'd never have guessed that english was not your native language! Very, very good, just one tiny mistake... far less than most native speakers!

Printing to Xerox

Having difficulty printing to Xerox 7335 Workcentre. Any suggestions ?

Thanks for the try. I downloaded new drivers for the Xerox for Mac OS and they did not work. For some reason, the Xerox is online but not connecting. Xerox was moved and worked at prior location. Not sure why it is not working on the network now.

Can't print to HP 6500 e709a printer using Windows 8.1 from new HP Pavillion Laptop..

Can't print to HP 6500 e709a printer using Windows 8.1 from new HP Pavillion Laptop..have installed/reinstalled/deleted all-in-one etc tc 20 times HP Solution keeps snding me to download all-in-1 software.

Welcome to the HP Community , I read about how you cannot print to your Officejet 6500 e709a printer from your Windows 8.1 system, and I hope to help you! I am curious to find out that if there are any error codes or messages that occur when you run the installation for the printers driver and software. Please try the installation first by running the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows. If you see any errors, report them back to me and I will take a look at them. Please also run the Print and Scan Doctor. This diagnostic tool will check for any conflicts that could be causing the issue. The tool will show you a report at the end. If there was a problem that the tool could not fix, you will notice it in the results. Let me know what the results say. They will tell you if they fix a component, there is a critical error (red x will appear), or will show green check marks if everything checks out fine. You can run the tool twice and choose "fix scanning", and then "fix printing" on the second round, or vise versa. I hope to hear from you!Show thanks for my reply to help you today by hitting the "thumbs up" icon below!

Photoshop CS5: error when printing to Xerox Phaser 7750

Mac 10.6.5
I get the following error when I print directly to my Xerox Phaser 7750 from Photoshop CS5:
"Error: /Library/Printers/Xerox/Filters/pstophaserps failed"
All the other CS5 apps (plus Photoshop CS4) have no trouble printing.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Something doesn't add up since PS CS4 works ok. What's different about CS5? 64bit?
My guess would be that Photoshop is the only app you use that prints PostScript through the Cocoa drivers, and thus the only one hitting that particular part of the driver software.

Why can't print to Xerox Splash or HP from Safari or Apple Mail?

I copy pasted this from the Printing and Faxing forum since it seems no one can answer my questions there. Maybe someone here has an answer.
From yesterday:
I just updated my computer from a G4 running 10.3.9 to a G5 running 10.4.5. I used the migrate wizard so I didn't need to install anything new. All my applications even seem to work well. The only thing I can't do is print from Safari or Mail to an HP LaserJet 1320 or a Xerox Docucolor G630. I reinstalled the drivers for both printers and I still can't print. I can print from Quark and Acrobat Reader just fine. A few months ago, I set up a G5 workstation but with that one I needed to install everything from scratch and I'm able to print from Safari and Mail fine from that computer. What do I need to do?
One more thing, I tried printing a page from my System Profile and I can't. I click on the print button and nothing happens. I'm at a loss here. Where do I begin?
I hate to be persistant but I really need some help. Let me tell you what I've done so far.
I've gone to the HP site and downloaded the latest driver for the 1320n series printer and I reinstalled and set up the printer in the print center like I've always done with any of the printers I've set up before. I still can't print from Mail, Safari, and from the system. I see on the HP site that there is a fix in the Tiger system already (I think I'm reading that right) and I shouldn't be worrying about this.
I found in one of the other forum listings about a Foomatic/hpijs and I installed that one. Nothing printed. I tried using a Generic PPD. Nothing happened.
I reinstalled the Xerox Splash printer drivers from the disk and that didn't make a difference.
In the print window, I can't make a PDF, won't let me Preview, and won't let me Print. I click on the buttons and they won't even react. It doesn't do anything. But even with the new drivers I've set up since I started all this, I can still print from Quark and Acrobat Reader. So it seems it's got something to do with the system.
I'm really frustrated here. Can someone please give me a clue if they have one? Anything would be appreciated.
PowerMac G5 2.3GHz 250 HD 1.5 Gb RAM Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Thanks a million for your input. I really appreciate it. I found the fix though in the troubleshooting section in the book I purchased from Dr. Smoke from the Forums. It's his X Lab for Tiger book. Dr. Smoke is THE BOMB! :~D I have to thank him again for his guru abilities!
There was a plugin that was afoul. The Xerox Accounting plugin was causing my print option not to respond along with the other buttons in the print window. I removed it from the plugin folder and now I can print. I'm glad that's all it was.
Thanks again!

Can't print to Xerox copier, OK from other computers

I have recently set up our iMac next to our Xerox copier. I have dowloaded and installed the printer driver (and restarted), made whatever configurations to it were necessary, but I cannot print from any application, with one exception: i can print from the Xerox Command Workstation (test pages) -- although this does not actually use a print dialog (it proves only one thing, that the computer can communicate over the network to the copier).
The Mac network and internet connection on the iMac are working fine. Appletalk is on. Other Macs have had no problem printing to the copier.
Any thoughts?

I want to emphasize that everything else is working on the network: internet, other Macs and PCs on the network (I can talk to them, they can talk to me), the fiery server software (connects from this iMac to the fiery server no prob.).
However, whenever I print from any application, it never prints but continually says: "printer busy; will retry in 10 seconds"

HAVING PROBLEMS WITH OS 10.6.8 PRINTING WITH XEROX PHASER. MacPro crashes when printer warms up. Does anyone have a solution? 6360 DN

I've been using Macs since 1984. Have been using Xerox Phaser printers for ten years. But with the last update to OS 10.6.8 last summer, I've had problems with crashing when printing. My MacPro crashes when printing via ethernet prot with Xerox Phaser 6360DN or when the printer warms up. Worked fine with OS 10.6.7. Internet postings suggest this is a common problem for all Mac users with Xerox Phaser printers. Apple put out an update to 10.6.8 to address the problem. I downloaded it but it did not solve the problem. Have tried all the Xerox drivers along with Apple drivers. Can't solve the problem. Xerox says it's an Apple problem. Does anyone KNOW how to solve the problem?

sorry, just saw that i was accidently in the snow leopard section....i reposted under the correct section. here's the link.

Mac OS 10.7 printer problem with 6500 all-in-one wireless

HP 6500 all-in-one wirelss: After configuring (and reconfiguring) the printer and exhausting all the troubleshooting steps suggested by HP, I still have the problem of prints stalling in the queue or, alternately, printing very very slowly. Wireless connectivity is "excellent" according to the Wireless Network Test Report. When printing, printer is found, display says "Connected to Printer" then the barber-pole spins and spins and eventually the word "Idle" appears. Any suggestions on how to get printer to work?

This article should help to maintain wireless connection:

Printing to Xerox WorkCentre 7655 From Mac OS 10.4.9

I have a 1.5 GHz PowerBook G4 (1 GB RAM) and upgraded to Mac OS X (10.4.9) a couple of days ago. My printer (Xerox WorkCentre 7655, attached through Airport Wireless/Ethernet) will only print one copy, regardless of how many copies I request. If I request 200 copies, I still only receive one copy from the printer.
I noticed that one of the problem 10.4.9 "corrected" was the number of copies with the print server.
What gives? How do I get the number of copies I request to print out correctly?
I have shut everything down, re-set everything, reinstalled the printer drivers, and scoured the settings to make sure they are correct. This was clearly engaged when I upgraded to 10.4.9... Any helpful thoughts?
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

I have encountered the same problem -- only prints one copy, regardless of how many are requested -- with our Xerox WCP C2636. Xerox tech support reloaded and upgraded the software on the printer and I reinstalled the PPD on my machine. Choosing "collated" fixed the problem in Adobe InDesign CS2 and Adobe Acrobat Pro 7. But the problem persists in other apps, such as Word 2004, Preview and Pages. I spoke with Xerox level 2 sofware support; they were unable to reproduce the problem on their test Mac (I suspect it wasn't upgraded to 10.4.9).
I suppose that I am joining the increasingly large number of users who are eagerly awaiting a fix for this annoying and frustrating problem.

Logo appearing in print preview but not in print for Xerox Workcentre M118

Hello experts,
I am not able to print logo(in .bmp) format in Xerox Workcentre M118 PCL 6 printer. It is displaying accurately in print preview. While taking print out only grey background is coming, no trace of logo. Can anyone suggest, what are the print related settings needed in SPAD or any other transaction needed to print graphics. The logo is coming accurately if it is stored in pdf and then printed.
Regards,
Debopriyo

hi,
To print logos using the SMARTFORMS, we need to first upload that logo onto the application server. The steps to upload the logo onto the application server are as follows:
1. Go to transaction SE78
2. Select the desired graphic in the tree (for example, BMAP)
3. Choose GRAPHIC --> IMPORT
4. Enter the name of the graph and the description
5. Select the type of the image (black/white or color)
Now the logo is uploaded onto the application server. To print this logo using the SMARTFORM, create a graphic node in the window and enter the name of the image you had just uploaded. Your logo should now print.
Refer the following links.

DUPLEX PRINTING - HP Officejet 6500 E710a-f PRINTER

My HP Officejet 6500 E710a-f is fitted with a Gadget for Duplex Printing.
That notwithstanding, the Print Settings do not provide an option for automatic Duplex Printing. The Settings only provide for a "Print One Sided" under which there is a Sub-Option that provides for "Manually Print on Both Sides" with the Intruction "Reload Paper when prompted to print the second side".
Have I perhaps looked for the Duplex Printing Option at the wrong place OR would there perhaps be something wrong with my Printer/Software?
More to the point, do I need to do anything to activate the Duplex Printing capability??

Ensure that the driver knows that a duplex unit is present on the printer (assuming that one is):
For the printer instance in question, bring up the Printer properties dialogue.
Select the Device settings tab.
Ensure that the duplex unit is set to Installed rather than Not installed.
