Sharing Ports Between Printers and Scanners

Your machine may be connected to a host computer via the parallel port or USB port. Since the MFP device contains more than one device (printer and scanner), it is necessary to organize proper access of “consumer” applications to these devices via the single I/O port.

The Xerox MFP driver package provides an appropriate port sharing mechanism that is used by Xerox printer and scanner drivers. The drivers address their devices via so-called MFP ports. The current status of any MFP port can be viewed via the MFP Ports Configuration. The port sharing prevents you from accessing one functional block of the MFP device, while another block is in use.

When you install a new MFP printer onto your system, it is strongly recommended you do this with the assistance of an MFP Configurator. In this case you will be asked to choose I/O port for the new device. This choice will provide the most suitable configuration for MFP’s functionality. For MFP scanners I/O ports are being chosen by scanner drivers automatically, so proper settings are applied by default.

Using the properties window provided by the Printers configuration, you can change the various properties for your machine as a printer.

1Open the MFP Configurator.

If necessary, switch to Printers configuration.

2Select your machine on the available printers list and click Properties.

3The Printer Properties window opens.

The following five tabs display at the top of the window:

•General: allows you to change the printer location and name. The name entered in this tab displays on the printer list in Printers configuration.

•Connection: allows you to view or select another port. If you change the printer port from USB to parallel or vice versa while in use, you must re-configure the printer port in this tab.

•Driver: allows you to view or select another printer driver. By clicking Options, you can set the default device options.

•Jobs: shows the list of print jobs. Click Cancel job to cancel the selected job and select the Show completed jobs check box to see previous jobs on the job list.

•Classes: shows the class that your printer is in. Click Add to Class to add your printer to a specific class or click Remove from Class to remove the printer from the selected class.
