Client networking software

Xerox client software, a third-party TCP/IP lpr networking software, Novell, or Apple/Macintosh Printer Access Protocol (PAP) networking software must be installed on your client workstations or downloaded from the printer controller. This software provides an interface with the printer controller, which allows you to submit print jobs and check job status.

Note: The DocuPrint printing options available to a client user vary according to the networking software loaded on the client workstation.

For additional information on submitting jobs from a client workstation, refer to the Guide to Submitting Jobs from the Client.
