Xerox 4500 PS TR

2.4 Share timeout

When Xerox 4500 PS TR operates as a print server for multiple environments simultaneously, print corruption is avoided by excluding all other printing as long as a print job is being printed. This is done via a Share Timeout. The Share Timeout defines an idle time for switching between printer sessions. As a default, the Share Timeout is set to 20 seconds, but this can be changed via the configuration file (See the various configuration options for details ).

NOTE:

∙The Share Timeout must be set to a value which is less than the printer’s internal printer share timer.

∙Native Share Strings:

No share string functionality is included in the Xerox 4500 PS TR when printing non-IPDS data, so it is up to the application to ensure the correct printer environment.

IPDS Share Strings

To ensure that the printer environment is corre ct for IPDS printing, share strings can be programmed using the idaSetup (MakeITDS) Setup program.

IPDS resources downloaded to the printer are del eted on share boundaries and are therefore downloaded to the next print job (next usage).

2.5Network installation

1.Switch off the printer.

2.Connect the UTP cable to the network port on the PrintServer.

NOTE:

If you use the STP cable connection, you must use the cable supplied with the kit to convert STP to UTP cabling.

3.Switch on the printer.

4.Test the Xerox 4500 PS TR (by pressing the TEST key).
