Xerox Workcentre XD120f

Hello,
I recently inherited a Xerox Workcentre XD120f and would like to connect it to my mac. The printer only has a parallel port but I purchased a cord awhile back that converts it to USB. When I plug the printer up to the mac and go to the add new printer in system preferences, the mac recognizes it. However, the specific driver is not listed as an option in the pulldown menu.
I have looked on Xerox's website online and from what I can tell they do not support OS X drivers for my specific printer. Does anyone know of a thrid-party vendor that does? Or anyone who has successfully performed this combination using a different print driver (I know from personal experience there are some HP printers that only work with an Apple Laserwriter driver, etc. See iFelix's webpage for more details).
Any help would be great! Otherwise I just have one heck of a copy machine, ha ha.

Here are all the third-party CUPS drivers I know of:

As far as I can tell, no one has figured out how to print to your printer:

  • 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.

  • Booklet issues with InDesign CS3 on Mac, and Xerox WorkCentre 7655 booklet maker

    I'm having several booklet making issues I'm hoping someone can help me with.
    I am on a MacPro, OS X Leopard, InDesign CS3. We have a Xerox WorkCentre 7655 that has booklet making capability. The network server is a PC with Microsoft 2003 server on it.
    The booklet I am making uses two 11x17 trays - one for cover stock for the cover and one for regular 24 lb paper for the insides. The layout is single pages rather than spreads - spreads did not work at all.
    From InDesign using the printer, the cover pages come out backwards and mirror image. The inside pages are upside down and on only half the page. I did not not InDesign file/booklet because that seemed to create even more problems with the Xerox booklet settings, and I don't know how to try InDesign booklet and not the Xerox settings.
    I tried making a pdf and printing booklets from that. On the Macintosh, I can't figure out how to tell it the pages are 11x17 so it keeps giving me an error that the printer is waiting for 8 1/2 x 11.
    I actually did get the booklets to print properly using the pdf file and a PC, but any gray graphics came out lilac. The text was black, and the covers were the correct colors - only the inside graphics were the wrong color.
    I hope this makes some sense - I really need help. I've tried everything I can think of. I spent a lot of time with Xerox 1st and 2nd level support, and they have washed their hands of this. So I'm posting here hoping someone has some ideas.
    Any other information anyone might need for this issue? Thanks so much.

    I have a similar machine configuration and have had many issues printing to an HP 9500mfp. Pages rotate, mirror, 2-sided both print on same side. I've lost the "bookletmake" function. Jobs will not recognize paper trays (meaning I have to manually tell it which paper tray holds the tabloid stock). I've tried using the "Page Setup" dialog box to no avail. On occasion, I can get some of the features to work with a pdf printing from Acrobat. Sometimes, that doesn't work either - never with any kind of predictability. Printing to the HP 4700 is more reliable. I've downloaded the updated "Leopard" compatible driver from HP, but it fixed no issues. When I tried contacting tech support for HP, the replied that this is an OS issues and not with equipment, leaving me SOL.

  • Has anyone found a workaround driver for using a Xerox WorkCentre PE220 Series printer with Mountain Lion?

    Has anyone found a workaround driver for using a Xerox WorkCentre PE220 Series printer with Mountain Lion?

    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.

  • Xerox workcentre 7535 print driver no longer works with Mavericks 10.9.2

    Unable to change any settings in Print dialog pane for Xerox WorkCentre 7535. Xerox says its an Apple software problem. They have issed three revised drivers since Apple released Mavericks OS-X 10.9.2. Not only does latest driver (4-11-14) not work, their universal driver for Mavericks no longer works. Anybody else trying to print on a Xerox device?

    I think I solved this.  Our Canada office has a WorkCentre 7556, and it was having the same problem(s).
    Here's what I found and did:
    Log into the printer's web interface.  Go to the Properties tab.  On that page, expand General Setup.  Then click Configuration Report.
    Find and click the link for Machine Hardware.  In that box, find a line item for Finisher Type.  Scribble down or remember your finisher type (ours was Xerox Professional Finisher).
    On the Mac in question, go to System Preferences, Printers & Scanners.  Find your Xerox printer, click Options & Supplies, and then the Options button.  Now on our machine, from a default installation, the finisher was set to OCT (Offset Catch Tray) and was greyed out.  Changing this to the correct finisher mentioned above made all of our errors go away.
    Cheers, good luck, and um, I guess mark as Answered if this works for you please?

  • Help with Xerox Workcentre 7232 & Mountain Lion 10.8.4

    I just updated to 10.8.4 today, and I lost the ability to print to both my Brother MFC-J6710DW (wireless connect) and Xerox WorkCentre 7232 (wired connect) printers.  Any suggestions?

    I have a DocuCenter-IV C4470, it was working fine till I changed my router and forgot to change the IP setting coresponding to my printer IP....  First thing I did was to delete my printer on my Mac (bad move); then once I realized I can just change the IP setting on my router but everything was too late.  After I re-install the printer on my Mac, i can not print anymore, the printer kept telling me this JCL Syntax Error 016-749.  I tried downloading the latest driver from Fuji Xerox for OS X 10.8, but it didn't work, still showing the same error.  I looked everywhere I could, both in Chinese & English sites, nothing really help.  After spending 6 & plus hours, I finally found a solution. I went back to Fuji Xerox web site, downloaded all the possible drivers that fit my printer model; tried install every one of them, finally I found this drvier named "Macintosh OS X printer driver", this is none of the recent drivers, and it seems like an genetic driver for all DocuCenter printers.  However, it works!!!  I do not know how many ppl have this same JCL error problem, but this solution works for me.  By the way, I even call the service center and discussed a while with the tech support; what they've told me is pretty much we can find on the web; they suppose to send someone over to take a look tomorrow, but I guess I do not need it.  Good luck to those who has the same problem, and hope my solution can reslove yours, too.

  • Xerox Workcentre 7328 Ps

    We had to unplug our computers, the telephone and the wi-fi connector for we were replacing out counter top and had to make room for our devices.  Now everything is plugged back in and for some reason our Xerox Workcentre 7328 Ps won't allow us to print
    from our computers.  It will copy just fine but when I try and print from ANY computer, a little pop up box states "Printer Status is not available at this time"  now when I go into Start; Printers and faxes and look up my printer it states
    "Ready".  Nothing is paused and it seems ready to print.  I don't know why it won't let us print from any of our computers.  Help!!!!

  • Xerox Workcentre Pro 2636

    HELP! A guy at Xerox Central is blaming the Mac OS for our printing problems to a xerox copier.
    I have not been able to print to a Workcentre Pro 2636 from any of our macs on 11 x 17 paper. the 8 1/2 x 11 paper works fine.
    I called and emailed Xerox and they said its a mac problem and to contact Apple for more information on this.
    Anyone know the answer?

    Does the second paper size not show up as an option?
    Is it an add-on hardware option - maybe you need to
    tell OS X it's installed by going to Printer Setup,
    highlighting the printer and doing show info >
    Options (don't remember exact wording of the menu,
    maybe configurable options?).
    No, it shows up as an option, and it sends the job to the printer - but - the printer gives this error:
    "The Job was deleted because the print image maximum has been exceeded for the user account."

  • HT3771 Print with a Xerox workcentre 5020 using Snow Leopard

    Hi!
    I've been looking everywhere for a driver (any driver) that may help me use this Workcentre with our Macs. I know there's none from Xerox for this printer so, any idea, tip or suggestion to make this work? Besides buying a new printer of course...

    Looking at the specifications for this printer, it appears that is uses a proprietary driver that was only ever released for Windows.
    I also had a look at the Linux Foundation for an open source driver but there does not appear to be one for this model.
    If you still have a Windows XP computer, you may be able to use it as a print server and use this instruction to print from the Mac.

  • OS 10.6.8 update will no allow me to print a Xerox Workcentre 7132 on a network

    With OS 10.6.7 everything worked perfectly.
    Now with 10.6.8 I cannot print.  Printer pauses in print.  I cannot print, period.  Though all Windows based computers can.
    Any assistance will be appreciated.
    And as additional information...... when I updated.... both iMac and MBP will not print on the Workcentre 7132 via the 'network'.
    Thanks,
    Reed

    Yes,there's nothing wrong with FCE 4 and as long as you have all the updates for the computer it should work on any OS .........  except some people have reported problems with the latest Mountain Lion.
    Lars  ....... in your original post you made a totally incorrect statement saying that FCE was (basicly just an expanded iMovie - yes, I felt ripped off)
    FCE is nothing like iMovie in any way, as it is actually a slightly cut-down version of the 900 euro Final Cut Pro.
    If you think it has not got many features, you mustn't have found them, as it is to all intents and purposes as fully-featured as any pro editing app.
    As a pro app it's not something you can simply install and use immediately  .........  unless you are already familiar with pro editing.
    It can take weeks or more to become familiar with its basic features.

  • Xerox workcentre 7225 print driver fails while searching for networked printer

    HelloJoe,Thanks - So I took those steps and the printer is created as a local printer using a TCP/IP port with the proper IP address for that printer. It appears I can get to its property pages. But when I try to print, the job goes to the queue and it just hangs eventually timing out and it shows error for printing that document... I can ping the IP adddress from the PC and it returns pings. ? 

    This unit is working fine from several other PCs, WIN 7 and WIN XP, in the building. Installing on a WIN7 64 bit PC. During the installation it starts to look for the networked printer and stops, posting the message -  [ Xerox windows common installer has stopped ] , then installer just hangs. I have uninstalled and tried the following versions with the same error -  Date: 2 Jun, 2014Version: 5.351.8.0.0Size: 17.7 MBFormat: EXEand tried  Global Print driver  Date: 15 Dec, 2014Version: 5.404.8.0Format: WWW NOTE - I even tried a manual driver installation which appears to work but the printer fails to print - returning a print error and cancels the job. Help,Jim  

  • Xerox Workcentre 3119 does not work with Snow Leopard?

    I just installed Snow Leopard and my existing printers are not recognized. I had no problem with Leopard. I tried re-installing the printer driver but still no go.
    This is frustrating. Can anyone help?

    Lassiter, here's your Oz url: "AUS Web Support," <[email protected]>
    Note that it's only the printing that doesn't work. Scanning and copying both work OK. Files can still be printed from another Mac or drive with 10.5 or earlier if it has the appropriate program installed.
    In response to the last post in this thread I have done everything suggested but Fuji-Xerox have not provided an update yet to make this particular printer work as a printer with SL. The message given in the print queue window is:
    +The printer software was installed incorrectly. Please reinstall the printer’s software or contact the manufacturer for assistance.+
    +Printer offline.+
    Their latest installation package is for 10.5 and dated Apr 2008 but the ppd is Feb 2006. There are no other printer files apparently installed by the installer as are provided for other printers supported in SL.
    The only permissions repair issue since playing with other installers is the usual batch for Adobe Flash Player!
