It is a Xerox Phaser 6125 color laser.

Drivers exist for the 6120 and the 6130, but nothing — Linux or Windows10 — for the 6125.

I tried the ‘alternatives’ and ‘suggestions’ and they don’t work.

“Linux CUPS Printing Package”

Official xerox support. Probably comes as a compressed Tar file, just move it to your CUPS folder and expand it. The Linux will find it when needed. CUPS is where all printer drivers go so that Linux can find them.

Just searched for you. Russ at https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/385667-xerox-6125-color-laser-driver states,
I have a 6120 that has a PPD from Xerox. I have used it since openSUSE 10.0 with no problem. There are two versions available. i find the older one gives me more options. Xerox only lists windows ppd's for your printer. I was once told by Xerox you can copy the windows ppd to Linux and it should work. Don't know about that for sure. Heres the ppd (windows)file for your printer from Xerox: http://www.support.xerox.com/go/resu...25&source=xcom -- Russ Registered Linux user #441463

It's https://www.support.xerox.com/en-gb/product/phaser-6125/content/108826 Windows 7 print driver. This driver uses the Add Printer Wizard and offers full support of the printer specific features for the Xerox Phaser 6125. Microsoft WHQL certified But it is in German!

Hope this helps.
