Hello, Thanks again for you help with the
Oce 3165. I have a new question, the
current print driver for the mac does not
do the same things as the PC driver. The
one problem I am having is when a job
gets printed from the mac the sheets
gather in the finisher then eject out, on the
PC the sheets eject after each copy. I
have gone over and tried many work
arounds but none help. I noticed the print
driver (PPD) file for the mac is a few years
old. I was wondering if a new driver would
help? Or correcting the current driver (it is
just a text file). Well any help you can give
would be welcomed. Thanks again and
will chat with you later.

Oce stopped development of the PPD a couple years ago. It sounds like the MAC is sending one job, and the Windows drivers are sending seperate jobs. Maybe? The MAC PPD also does not allow mailboxes.

Well sounds like I will need to edit the
print driver text file and keep looking for a
workaround. Thanks
Also do you have or know where to get a
copy of the parts manual for the oce 3165,
maybe a pdf?
Thanks again
