XEROX DOCUPRINT 180 LPS SOFTWARE COMPONENTS

Printer Software

The Printer Software works in conjunction with the OSS (system controller) to print your job. The system controller interprets the user instructions contained in JDLs, DJDEs, and operator input, as well as the data being printed on each page. The system controller, driven by the OSS, sends this information to the printer. Once the information reaches the printer, it is the Printer Software that identifies the best way to carry out the task.

User Interface Software and User Dialog Software

As with the OSS and Printer Software, the System UI Software and the User Interface Dialog interact together to control your PC UI. Along with establishing and managing the communication between the PC UI and the printer, the User Interface Software displays the objects on the UI screen and performs the actions input by the operator, as specified within the UI Dialog.
