6.Commonly asked questions

This chapter provides answers to questions frequently asked about the DocuPrint IPS printers by Xerox customers.

How do the DocuPrint IPS printers compare to the XPAF solution?

The Xerox Printer Access Facility (XPAF) is a host-based software program that prints AFP data streams (AFPDS), as well as SYSOUT, line-mode, DJDE, XES, page-formatted, PCL, and pass-through data streams on Xerox production, distributed, and mid-range printers. Thus, XPAF and DocuPrint IPS printers can coexist in the same environment, which provides you with more flexibility when implementing Xerox printing systems solutions.

How do I power on the DocuPrint IPS printer components?

The correct power-on sequence for the DocuPrint IPS printers is to power on the IOT, then the HCU, then the Sun SPARCstation. This power-on sequence ensures that all features of the printer will be accessible when you begin printing.

The trays on my DocuPrint 4635 IPS are not always accessible. Why?

Before you power on the Sun SPARCstation, you must make sure that all trays on the DocuPrint 4635 IPS printer are in a “ready” state (for example, loaded with paper). Otherwise, the trays will not be accessible by the system.

I need to print PostScript, PCL, and IPDS data streams. Does Xerox have a solution for this?

The DocuPrint IPS/NPS Enterprise Printing Option is a dual mode system that supports both the AFP and PostScript environments. This option allows you to schedule print jobs for your printers based on need. For example, you can print your office documents from PC workstations during the day and your high-volume production jobs after hours.
