Using Xerox FreeFlow® Print Server IPS Manager
System
The following operator commands are located on the System menu:
•Go Offline
•Go Online
•Stop
•Continue
•System configuration
•Manage Fonts
•Trace
•Restart IPS Gateway
Go Offline / Go Online
This command toggles between the online and offline modes. The IPS Manager does not go online until requested to do so. This command is only relevant when the Channel has been selected as the host interface on the System Configuration dialog. This command is disabled when TCP/IP is the selected host interface.
Stop / Continue
This command toggles the stop and continue modes. When stop is selected, the IPDS function presents a not ready condition to the host and all committed pages from the IPDS host stop printing. Continue presents a ready condition and printing resumes.
System Configuration
The following lists the features that control system configuration and affect how IPDS communicates with the host and with the print server.
•Host Interface allows you to select the IPS Manager connection method to the host, either TCP/IP or channel.
–Configuring the TCP/IP connection allows you to identify the TCP/IP port number used with the TCP/IP address assigned to the print server to send data to the IPS Manager from the host computer.
NOTE: PSF defaults to port number 5001 if the port is not changed in the printer definition. If you need to use something other than the default value, do not use port numbers in use by other print server gateways. For example, 9100 and 9400 are default values used by Xerox FreeFlow® Print Server gateways; DO NOT use either of these as your IPDS TCP/IP Port number.
