QUESTION: We use Mac computers.  

Answer
Hi Stephanie,

Two things you can do. One if you are on OSX, make sure you have run all updates to the system software and from HP. Thats the easy part.

Next HP has this recommendation:

From the Finder's Go menu, choose Go to Folder .
Go to this folder: /Library/Printers/PPD Plugins/
Remove the file XeroxAccounting.plugin .

Both of these should fix the issue of conflicting or outdated PPDs.

Thanks
