Required Printer Software

REQUESTSIZE

 

must be 650; this is the transfer size in bytes between FASTPXNS and 
TLAM/PAM. 

Required Printer Software

To use a Xerox printer with FASTPXNS, the Xerox printer must be equipped with the 
Host Interface Processor (HIP) version 3.5 or later software. In addition, a suitable 
HIP.LIB file and JSL file(s) must be installed in the printer. Examples of these files can 
be found in the following subsections.

HIP Software and the HIP.LIB file

To use a Xerox 4050 printer with FASTPXNS, the printer must have the Host Interface 
Processor (HIP) version 3.5 software installed, and the HIP Option Specification file 
(HIP.LIB) must be modified so that HIP can correctly receive print jobs from the HP 
NonStop system. 

Example 7-1

 contains a sample HIP.LIB file for a Xerox printer:

Note that this example should be considered only as a starting point for a working 
HIP.LIB and not as the only configuration or best configuration.

The optimum setting for the various attributes depends upon the type of jobs being 
printed. For further guidance, consult either the appropriate Xerox manual or your 
Xerox representative. 

Note. 

For D-series systems, you must define one PORT using the XNS address for each LAN 

controller on which a Xerox printer is installed.
