8.Installation

This chapter describes the activities performed by you and Xerox during the installation of the Xerox DocuPrint 96/96 MICR NPS, 4635/4635 MICR NPS, and 180/180 MICR NPS, and hardware and software components. Before installation can begin, you must complete the tasks described in the “Preparing for installation” chapter of this guide.

Installation process

Xerox is responsible for the physical installation of the 96/96 MICR, 4635/4635 MICR, or 180/180 MICR NPS hardware components and the software.

For customers outside the United States, contact your local Xerox operating company for your specific installation process.

The installation process can take one or several days to complete. Equipment, software kits, and documentation kits may all arrive in one day, or over the course of several days. When all of the necessary items are in place, Xerox personnel will complete the installation of the NPS components.

In the United States, the steps in the installation process typically occur in the following order:

1.Xerox personnel installs all DocuPrint NPS printer hardware and connects the printer controller to your site’s network through the Ethernet, Token Ring, and FDDI connector you supply. This process takes approximately four hours if all the necessary network and electrical connectors are in place.

2.Xerox personnel loads printer controller software on the printer controller (approximately 1.5 hours).

3.Xerox personnel downloads Xerox client software, if applicable, on one client workstation to validate the installation (15 minutes). Software is downloaded on another client workstation as part of training conducted by your systems analyst. All other client software installations are your responsibility. Refer to the Guide to Configuring and Managing the System for more information.

4.If your site uses third-party Transmission Control Protocol/ Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) lpr networking software, refer to the Guide to Configuring and Managing the System for information on modifying the printcap file.

5.Xerox personnel test the system and run sample jobs (30 minutes).

6.Xerox personnel conduct initial operations training (2 to 4 hours).
