XEROX WorkCentre 7556 and OS X 10.9 drivers

[Kimzi]

HI, Ryan!

The newest driver from Apple is not the same as the newest driver from Xerox, the official driver (sep 9, 2014) for this particular machine can be found HERE.

Best Regards

I just noticed you can hide the update from Apple by using the "control click" and selecting 'Hide Update'.

Ok, I guess... but why isn't the newest driver working with accounting codes?

We have a XEROX WorkCentre 7556 that requires accounting codes (using Xerox Standard).

Since Apple updated the native Xerox drivers (Xerox Printer Software Update 3.0) in OS X 10.9, we've had a hard time keeping our OS X clients happily printing to our copier.  I've found that driver v2.77.0 works the best.  The only problem is Apple updates will trump this driver and I'm forced to reinstall the 2.77.0 after every Apple update.  Not fun with mutliple OS X users.

I've tried the newest driver v3.33.1 (released Aug 4, 2014), but it rejects my accounting codes (with a previously working preset). Does anyone have a solution that doesn't require reinstalling 2.77.0 everytime I run Apple updates?  

This is very fustrating... please help.
