C1765nfw and Yosemite issue.
Since installing Yosemite om my macs, my Dell C1765nfw printer will only print single copies. If you ask for multiple copies, it fails with the following message:
On the same network, with a Computer with Mavericks installed, it prints fine.
Same at Home too.
I've reinstalled drivers.
No Events found!

A kind poster on another forum gave me a temporary fix which has worked for me. Here it is - use at your own risk:
1. in Spotlight Type Terminal and then press enter.
This should bring up the terminal window/program.
2. In the Terminal type
sudo sh -c 'echo "Sandboxing Relaxed" >> /etc/cups/cups-files.conf'
It will ask for your password (if you type it is hidden). After that type following:
sudo launchctl stop org.cups.cupsd
After that if you are lucky the printer driver should start to work. (which it did in my case)
If you want to revert the changes bring up the terminal again
type cd /etc/cups
type sudo nano cups-files.conf
after that enter your password again
then you are in an editor which allows you to edit the file
Delete the last line which says Sandboxing Relaxed
press ctrl x
confirm with y
and then press enter to save the file
after that issue again
sudo launchctl stop org.cups.cupsd
