System components overview

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

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

Xerox-suppliedThe printer controller includes a processor, CD-ROM drive, printer controller diskette drive, keyboard, mouse, and a 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 cable provides 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 DocuPrint printer document according to the print options specified by the user.

The printer also provides optional paper stacking and collating.
