    v18 v19  
     1= Solution no longer supported starting from Fedora 27 =
     2Starting from Fedora 27 the printer stopped working. Causing me to dive deeper into the magic world of printing.The printer has HBPL support. Yet the HBPLv1 driver from [http://foo2zjs.rkkda.com/ foo2zjs] does not give me any output at all.The HPBLv2 driver at [http://foo2hbpl.rkkda.com/ foo2hpbl] does not work, giving error code `PDL ERROR 016-720`. I am currently using the  [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_debug_printing_problems Fedora printer debugging guide] to find out how-to get the original driver - which seems to send a modified version of postscript - to work again.

     4I gave up. Swapped printer for older well suported [wiki:SamsungML1750] printer attached to my FreeBSD Server.

     6Some possible solutions for people willing to give it a shot:
     7 * Different type of Xerox drivers for more recent versions of CUPS. [https://forum.support.xerox.com/t5/Printing/Xerox-Linux-Drivers-need-updating-for-CUPS-2-2/td-p/199146 forum post] and [

     9 * Use old laptop/pc/raspberry with older version of Linux to use as printer server.
     10 * Driver hacking; the original source code is available, it looks like some hacking is required to get it compatible with the latest version of CUPS again.

    114The Xerox Phaser 6125N printer is a great piece of work, however it is not supported by default under Linux (Ubuntu 11.04 x64).

    4453= Windows 10 driver Support =
    4554There is no Windows 10 driver Support for the Xerox Phaser 6125N anymore, yet the [http://onlinesupport.fujixerox.com/setupDriverForm.do?ctry_code=SG&lang_code=en&d_lang=en&pid=DPC525A Fuji-Xerox DPC525A] driver works fine. Do mind you need to change some options like telling tray 1 has an 250 sheet feeder and set memory support to 64MB, but at least you do not need to buy another printer.
