To print from a Linux workstation, install either a Xerox ® print driver for Linux or a CUPS (Common
UNIX Printing System) print driver. You do not need both drivers.
Xerox recommends that you install one of the full-featured custom print drivers for Linux. To locate
drivers for your printer, go to
www.xerox.com/support/drivers .
If you use CUPS, ensure that CUPS is installed and running on your workstation. The instructions for
installing and building CUPS are contained in the
CUPS Software Administrators Manual , written and
copyrighted by Easy Software Products. For complete information on CUPS printing capabilities, refer
to the
CUPS Software Users Manual available from www.cups.org/documentation.php .
