An update to the Community Toolbar problem.
The pop-up alert I described here became a more serious problem yesterday, when it interfered with my workflow by popping up each time I opened a new window in an application to drag files from one folder to another. Having no answers posted here, I called Xerox again, and a person named Jack (or Jacque?) found no explanation for this and decided it was an Apple problem.
So I called Apple. We ran through various possibilities, including reestablishing an ethernet connection between the computer and printer, after previous set-up attempts had required substituting a USB connection. The ethernet cable restores the printer's Internet connection and, theoretically, participation in the Xerox 'Community". Nonetheless, the pop-up message remains unchanged -- a major nuisance and workflow impediment.
The Apple technician made a very good case that it is caused by Xerox's failure to provide a toolbar compatible with Safari, although it may work with Firefox and other browsers. I have a problem with that. All of my bookmarks are in Safari, and I have no interest in changing browsers. It is therefore intrusive for Xerox to launch its pop-up alert without providing any means for disabling it. This is an open request for Xerox to investigate and solve this issue.
