XEROX DOCUPRINT 180 LPS HARDWARE COMPONENTS

System controller hardware components

The system controller components are the system disks, the system controller panel, the PC user interface (PC UI), the quarter-inch cartridge (QIC) tape drive and optional floppy disk drive. A 9-track magnetic tape drive and a 36-track cartridge tape drive are available as options and are housed in the peripheral cabinet.

Figure 3-2 shows the Xerox DocuPrint 180 LPS system controller with the cartridge tape drive.

Quarter-inch cartridge tape drive The standard QIC tape drive (320 or525 MB in streaming mode; quarter-inch ANSI) provides an alternative source for the loading and backing up of user files (extension files such as .FRM) and fonts to and from the system disk. Disk save and restore (DSR) and system generation (sysgen) functions can be performed from the quarter- inch tape drive. It is not an input source for print jobs.

Floppy disk drive The optional floppy disk drive is located in the front panel of the system controller. It provides an alternative way of backing up and restoring system controller rigid disk files.

System disks Three 1.2 GB (formatted) SCSI system disks are provided as a standard feature. It resides inside the system controller and stores the operating system, fonts, forms, and general user files for the Xerox DocuPrint 180 LPS. Optionally, one additional system disks (each 1.2 GB formatted) can be installed, depending on storage needs.
