The printer controller consists of a specially-configured Sun
workstation and uses proprietary Xerox hardware, firmware, and
software.
Your system may use one of two platforms for the printer
controller:
• Sun Blade 1000
• Sun Ultra 60 workstation
The printer controller is based on the Sun Blade 1000, a
workstation with a high-performance architecture for complex
processing tasks. It contains the following hardware
components:
• Processor (system unit) containing the following:
– Two UltraSPARC III 750 Mhz central processing unit
(CPU) modules
– 4 GB memory (four 1 GB Dual In-line Memory Modules,
or DIMMs)
– 36 GB hard disk drive
– DVD-ROM drive
– 3.5 inch diskette drive
• Keyboard and mouse
• Monitor
• Optional Token Ring board
• Two printer controller Interface (PCI) boards installed in the
processor to interface with the print engine.
For channel connection to a host for IPDS printing, the system
may use a channel interface board that is connected to a
channel cable connector box.
An external 4 mm tape drive is available and recommended for
backing up site files. A typical color calibration file is 1.5 MB.
A second internal 36 GB hard disk drive is optional, as are two
additional external disks.
