Using the XDS Plus software
This chapter contains the procedures for accessing the XDS
Plus software on a Xerox printing system from your computer
running Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT 4.0, Windows
2000, Windows Millennium, XP, a Sun workstation that is running
Solaris 2.6 or 2.8, or from a Macintosh that is running OS X. The
Xerox Document Submission Plus (XDS Plus) software provides
you with windows you use to select a document file, to set up the
job ticket, and to submit your print job to the printer.
You must satisfy the following prerequisites before you use the
XDS Plus software:
•
Make sure that the Microsoft Windows, Sun Solaris, or
Macintosh software is installed on your workstation. If the
software is installed as a shared copy on your network server,
contact your system administrator. The XDS Plus software
runs correctly only when installed on your workstation.
•
Know how to use the tools in Windows, Solaris, or Macintosh
to connect to the network disk drives or to disconnect from
the drives to which you are currently connected.
•
Make sure that the XDS Plus software is installed on your
workstation. Refer to the "Installation Guide" for the
procedures.
•
Know how to save your document as a PDL format file by
using the print-to-file method; or know how to create a valid
TIFF, PDF, or ASCII file.
