Thinking about this...

Perhaps you need fresh drivers, you have a new iMac, so you are using a pre loaded OS and pre loaded drivers.

When you load your own OS you get to select the drivers (printer makes) you need.

Have you done the OS updates? New Macs don't always have the latest OS (or Drivers) installed, If you go to the Apple menu, select 'Software Update' and let it run it's course, will be several minutes. There may be some big downloads.

It isn't impossible the drivers from Apple are not the latest. If you go to the respective websites of the printer manufacturers, NOT the numerous upstart 'driver supplier sites' and download the latest genuine drivers that might be your solution. It may be that NX has a direct line to the printer bypassing the variable drivers to avoid this scenario.

JK, Doug or perhaps Tom would be better able to answer this one I have very little experience of printers.
