Printer Controller software and fonts

The installation of Printer Controller software is performed by your service representative once all the hardware components are in place and properly connected. The following is a summary of major software components installed on the Printer Controller:

•Xerox Printer Controller software

—Customized UNIX operating system (based on the Sun operating system; not all standard operating system features are available).

—DocuPrint NPS software for the user interface, printer driver, PDL decomposer, Job Pool Manager, and other operating system utilities. Licensing is required for the DocuPrint NPS software.

—Xerox client protocol software (print command) downloaded to client workstations or PCs as a means to communicate with the Printer Controller.

•Adobe PostScript fonts

Using font installation commands, you can load other Type 0, Type 1, or Type 3 PostScript fonts from a MS-DOS-formatted, 3.5-inch diskette or CD-ROM disk. Type 0 fonts must conform to a specification available from Xerox. Refer to the Xerox DocuPrint Network Printer Series Guide to Configuring and Managing the System, “Installing fonts,” for more information on font installation commands. Type 0, Type 1 and Type 3 PostScript fonts can also be downloaded with a print job. Refer to the Xerox DocuPrint Network Printer Series Guide to Using PDL, “PostScript,” for more information on PostScript fonts.

•PCL fonts

One bitmap font and 45 scalable PCL fonts are preinstalled on the system. A PCL font sampler is also preinstalled on the system. The 45 scalable and bitmap font files are listed in table 2-2. Additional fonts can be installed. Refer to the Xerox DocuPrint Network Printer Series Guide to Using PDL, “PCL 5,” for more information on PCL fonts.

•MICR fonts

For 96/4635/180 MICR systems, E13B fonts in PCL and PostScript are also provided.
