System component overview

DocuColor NPS/ The entire DocuColor NPS/IPS system includes the printer (also IPS known as an IOT or print engine), printer controller, printer

interface, and all appropriate software. “DocuColor printer” or “printer” refers to the base printer engine (IOT) only, without the printer controller and interface.

Xerox-suppliedThe printer controller includes two processors, DVD-ROM drive, printer controller diskette drive, keyboard, mouse, and a liquid crystal display

(LCD) flat panel monitor. The printer controller accepts the print job from the client workstation or host, converts the files into page images, and sends the page images to the printer. The user interface at the printer controller allows you to perform tasks such as monitoring job status, prioritizing jobs, and configuring the system.

Xerox-suppliedThe printer interface cables provide high-speed data transport printer interface and communication between the printer controller and the

printer.

Xerox-suppliedThe printer accepts data from the printer controller and prints the DocuColor printer document according to the print options specified by the user.

The printer also provides paper stacking and optional sampling.

Connectivity configurations

The NPS/IPS can process network PDL and IPDS jobs concurrently.

To support the submission of jobs from a variety of hosts, configuration possibilities include:

•The same Token Ring or Ethernet connection can be used for both IPDS and PostScript, PCL, ASCII, or TIFF.

•Both a Token Ring card and an Ethernet card can reside in the Sun workstation controller, with one being used for IPDS and the other for network PDLs.

•Bus and tag attachment through the channel interface board can be used for IPDS jobs from a channel-attached host; Token Ring or Ethernet connection can be used for jobs submitted over the network.
