Network printing environment

The job status command (lpq) is available at client workstations unless your TCP/IP network communications utilities do not support it.

Xerox Client Software provides commands for listing the status of the job and for listing the queue. These commands are available for jobs submitted using Xerox Client Software.

AppleTalk provides job status information at the client workstation through the print monitor function. Workstation users can also determine the status of a virtual printer.

NOTE: Job status is also available by establishing a telnet connection to the Printer Controller to access the user interface from your workstation. Printer and additional status information is also available. You can also use a Web browser to obtain job status. See the Guide to Configuring and Managing the System for more information.

Ethernet LAN

Users of networked client workstations may send print jobs to the printer over the Ethernet LAN using either the TCP/IP, AppleTalk using EtherTalk Link Access Protocol (ELAP), or Novell NetWare as the network protocol.

Regardless of printing or transmission protocol, the Ethernet connection to the Printer Controller must be compatible with the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.3 standard.

Token Ring

Users of networked client workstations may send print jobs to the printer over a Token Ring network using TCP/IP, Novell NetWare or AppleTalk network protocol.

Regardless of the printing transmission protocol, the Token Ring connection to the Printer Controller must be compatible with the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.5 standard.
