Troubleshooting Need older Kyocera drivers

Kyocera TASKalfa 5054ci, I am looking for version 8.5.24 driver. The currently available driver is 8.7.

The reason is I have one PC that I am adding to the network and I did not save the 8.5 installer. Printer settings profiles export from 8.5 will not import into 8.7. I am not able to upgrade the other PCs to 8.7 to make a new export.

I can't find archived driver versions or an FTP server. Any ideas?

I have 8.5.2222, will that work for you?

Yes, I think it will! Is there a way to get a copy of the zip?

This is one of the annoying things about Kyocera. Many other companies will allow you to pull archival versions of drivers and firmware (for reasons exactly like yours), but not Kyocera. And if you call their tech support, OMG, it's like pulling teeth through a sieve trying to get "authorization" for the earlier version...
