DocuPrint Model 92C printer.
Briefly, the functions of the components are as follows:
Customer-supplied client PC or
workstation
Users create their documents at the networked client PCs or
workstations using software applications that generate PostScript
(XGF), HP PCL5e, or ASCII output. When ready to print, users
submit the documents to the printer controller.
Customer-supplied network
The customer will need to supply one or more of the following
networks:
•
Ethernet local area network (LAN) running TCP/IP, AppleTalk,
or Novell NetWare network protocol.
•
Token Ring running TCP/IP, Novell, or AppleTalk network
protocol.
•
Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) running TCP/IP, Novell
3.x, or Apple Talk network protocols. The FDDI supports a
Single Connection configuration only.
Xerox-supplied printer controller
Printer controller (color or monochrome monitor, processor, CD-
ROM drive, keyboard, mouse, optional 1/4-inch or 4mm tape drive):
The printer controller accepts the print job from the client workstation,
converts the files into page images, and sends the page images to
the printer. The user interface at the printer controller allows you to
perform tasks such as monitoring job status, prioritizing jobs, and
configuring the system. The optional cartridge tape drive can be used
for tasks such as backing up files. The CD-ROM drive also allows you
to install the printer controller software.
