Evaluate Installation And Deployment - Xerox WorkCentre 7232 Evaluator Manual

Evaluate Installation and Deployment

Installing and deploying a fleet of copier/printers and multifunction printers throughout your organization is a potentially time-
consuming, complicated process. This is not limited to physically placing the units in your environment; it is really about how these
systems will integrate into your existing network infrastructure. You also need to consider the process required to deploy printing and
scanning services to your users, and how automated that process can be.
How the WorkCentre 7232 / 7242 exceeds the installation and deployment requirements:
Installation
When you choose Xerox, you can rest assured that your equipment will be delivered and
installed to your specifications and expectations. The 10/100Base-TX Ethernet con-
nection of the WorkCentre 7232/7242 series features automatic IP addressing, device
naming, and Ethernet speed sensing to provide simple and automatic network installa-
tion. Management and system setup can be accomplished through a variety of means,
including easy wizard-based processes found within Xerox CentreWare Web. Features like
®
cloning enable multiple-device installation onto networks with identical settings, eliminat-
ing the need to set up each system individually.
Deployment
Another critical area to evaluate is how to deploy print and scan drivers to your employ-
ees' computers. Print and scan drivers can be deployed centrally, so your IT staff needn't
perform desk-to-desk manual installation of the driver software. Again, CentreWare Web
wizards are provided to aid in the processes of installing, troubleshooting and upgrading
print and scan drivers for your employees, freeing up your IT staff for more pressing proj-
ects. Driver support is delivered for Windows (2000 / Server 2003 / XP / Vista), including
most with 32- and 64-bit drivers, Macintosh OS (10.3 and above), and multiple UNIX and
Linux platforms.
