Overview Client workstations and operating system software To send print jobs to the DocuTech printer, you must provide the proper client hardware and operating system software. In addition to the Xerox client software, third-party TCP/IP or IPX/ SPX network software must be loaded on each client workstation before the workstation can submit jobs to the printer. The Xerox Production Print Services client software enables job submission to the DocuSP controller. Briefly, you must supply: • PC or workstation (client): Users create their documents at the networked client PCs or workstations using software applications that generate either PostScript (Levels 1, 2, and 3), HP PCL 5e, PDF (1.4 version), TIFF images, or ASCII output. When ready to print, users submit the documents to the DocuSP controller. Other than the Xerox client software, it is your responsibility to supply, install, and maintain hardware and software on any PC, Sun workstation, or Macintosh used to generate documents for printing on the DocuTech printer. • Ethernet and TCP/IP, IPX/SPX, or AppleTalk software: The Ethernet LAN running TCP/IP, IPX/SPX, or AppleTalk as the network protocol transports the print job from the client PC or workstation to the DocuSP controller. You are responsible for obtaining, installing, and maintaining the required Ethernet LAN, transceivers, and connecting cables. Supported hardware and operating systems DocuTech supports the following types of networked client workstations and operating systems: • Sun UNIX workstation running Solaris 2.x • PC x86, running MS-DOS, version 5.0 or higher (Windows 95, Windows NT, Windows 98, Windows ME, or Windows 2000 is required for the graphical user interface client), with one of the following network protocol packages: - PathWay Access 2.1.1 or higher, Wollongong Integrated Networking/Transmission Control Protocol (WIN/TCP) for DOS, release 5.0 or higher - FTP software, PC-TCP/IP, release 2.2 or higher - Sun Personal Computer-Network File Services (PC-NFS), version 5.2 or higher 2-4 DocuTech 61xx Installation Planning Guide
