2Setting up workstations

This chapter describes how to prepare your DOS, Macintosh, and
UNIX workstations to work with DocuPrint. It includes procedures for
installing and removing Xerox Client Software (print command).
Before you complete the tasks in this chapter:
•
Verify that at least 850KB of disk space is available on the client
workstation. The Xerox Client Software package requires
approximately 450 to 550KB, and temporary files and the
directory structure require another 200 to 300KB.
•
Verify the connections between the Printer Controller and the
client workstation.
•
Set the default media for the printer (Set Default Media
command).
•
Set the printer's paper trays (Set Tray command).
•
Start printing and queueing on the Printer Controller (Start All
command).
•
Ensure that the networking communication package for your
client platform is properly installed and running.
This section describes the steps for installing the Xerox Document
Submission Client Software, the appropriate PPD (PostScript Printer
Description) file, and the Decomposition Service Tools on a
networked PC-DOS workstation.
In order for jobs submitted by Xerox Client software to print, Xerox job
ticket processing must be enabled. This is specified during
installation or by using the Configure utility. Also, in order to
download the client software, FTP capability must be enabled on the
controller. This is specified during installation or via the Configure
utility. If security is a concern, FTP capability can be disabled after
the software is downloaded by using Configure. For more
information, see the chapter "Using utility commands" in your Guide
to Configuring and Managing the System.
