Sharing Ports Between Printers and Scanners
Your machine may be connected to a host computer via the
USB port. Since the MFP device contains more than one device
(printer and scanner), it is necessary to organize proper access
of "consumer" applications to these devices via the single I/O
port.
The Xerox Unified Linux Driver package provides an appropriate
port sharing mechanism that is used by Xerox printer and
scanner drivers. The drivers address their devices via so-called
MFP ports. The current status of any MFP port can be viewed
via the Ports Configuration. The port sharing prevents you from
accessing one functional block of the MFP device, while another
block is in use.
When you install a new MFP device onto your system, it is
strongly recommended you do this with the assistance of an
Unified Driver Configurator. In this case you will be asked to
choose I/O port for the new device. This choice will provide the
most suitable configuration for MFP's functionality. For MFP
scanners I/O ports are being chosen by scanner drivers
automatically, so proper settings are applied by default.
