DOCUPRINT IPS SYSTEM

Product capabilities

This section describes the capabilities of the DocuPrint IPS printers.

User interface

Each DocuPrint IPS printer provides a graphical user interface (GUI) which you use to place the IOT online, configure the printer and peripherals, and start or stop print jobs. In addition, the IPS System Message CONSOLE window warns you of any problems with the system (Sun SPARCstation).

The IPS GUI allows you to access various DocuPrint IPS printer features, such as:

select finishing options

output tray configuration options

set front and back margins

select the originating paper tray or group of trays

print sample print engine test patterns

define the system configuration

channel address and mode

color extraction (DocuPrint 4850/4890/92C IPS only)

enable or disable the modem in the HCU (optional)

MICR mode printing (DocuPrint 96 MICR, 4635 MICR, and 180 MICR IPS only)

printer resolution (240, 300 or 600 dpi)

optional processing parameters.

For complete information on the IPS GUI and its functions, refer to the user documentation distributed with your DocuPrint IPS printer.

Printer emulation

The IPS system emulates an IBM Group 3 page printer (for example, the 3825 or 3827 printer) with the Advanced Function Image and Graphics (AFIG) option, a separate feature from IBM that directly processes IOCA FS10 images and GOCA DR/2V0 vector graphics. Xerox distributes the DocuPrint IPS printers with support for the IOCA and GOCA data towers as a standard feature; you need not purchase these options separately.

During initialization, the DocuPrint IPS printers communicate information to PSF in response to IPDS commands. The Xerox- specific printer features are enabled by sending the appropriate information from the printer to PSF in response to the ‘Sense Type and Model’ and ‘Obtain Printer Characteristics’ IPDS commands. The following sections provide further explanation of these commands.
