3.1.1 Required disk storage
The required disk storage capacity directly depends on how the software is installed. Xprint is distributed as a setup package containing the entire product. During the wizard execution, three kinds of installations are proposed:
-Typical: represents the installation of the Basic Software, the Inter domain and the XPG/3 emulation components.
-Compact: gathers the installation of the Basic Software and the Inter domain components.
-Custom: this installation type allows a free choice between the available components.
The following table illustrates the amount of space required, once installed on the disk (prior to database initialization):
| KB |
Basic Software | 10312 |
Inter domain | 692 |
XPG/3 Emulation | 88 |
Development Tool Kit | 348 |
Xprint R/3 Client | 648 |
Xprint R/3 Server | 200 |
SNMP agent | 304 |
Domain Monitoring GUI Anchor | 200 |
| 12792 |
|
|
Important:
In addition to these given sizes, the total free disk space needed is 35 MB for the complete installation of all components. The reason is the space needed by the MKS runtime and the installation files.
Moreover, space must be added to these initial figures for the storage of print data, temporary files and configuration files (database), which may vary widely according to the configuration and the usage model. 20 MB for these files is a minimum.
3.1.2 Virtual Memory consumption
The following table shows the approximate consumption of the Xprint processes in Kb. (in task manager)
Entity | Memory usage size | |
(KBytes) | ||
| ||
Standby | 12120 | |
Server | 7076 | |
Supervisor | 2856 | |
Printing | 6556 | |
Gateway | 9112 | |
R/3 Kit Server | 12712 | |
SNMP Agent | 6472 | |
|
|
The Standby size is required as soon as Xprint is active. The server and supervisor sizes must be multiplied by the actual number of active servers and supervisors defined on the system.
The printing size is required by each job, during the time it is actually being printed.
Be careful to configure a sufficient virtual swap memory on the Windows system.
The product could become unstable if there is a low virtual memory message.
3.2 Hardware requirements / support
Please refer to the chapter 7.1 of the reference manual for information about supported printers.
