Xerox Phasers and 10.10.1

Is anyone using older Xerox Phasers (6360, 4510, 7760)? I re-imaged over the break and find that Xerox hasn't updated any of it's drivers. All of the macs that were updated in place, not imaged, work fine. It appears the drivers are fine if installed under 10.9 but not 10.10. There's a suggestion on the Xerox forum to edit Sys/Lib/SystemVersion.plist but that creates lots of other issues; permissions, etc. I might try this with one machine to recreate the policy. Anyone dealing with this?

I have a 7760 that works, but I had to complete the following:
- Create a .pkg (with composer) that places the .PPD which is created when adding the printer to: /private/etc/cups/ppd.
- Add the printer with Casper Admin.
- Create a policy that deploys both .pkg (created above) and the printer.

You can download the PPD alone from openPrinting:

I hope this is helpful!
