DocuPrint and DocuColor 2060 NPS/IPS client overview

For information on XDS Plus software, refer to the Guide to Job Submission Using XDS Plus. This document is part of the Xerox Production Print Services series.

Xerox DigiPath Quick Print software for Windows NT 4.0 provides a series of dialog boxes that you use to select a document, set up a job ticket, and submit your print job.

In some cases, the workstation can be set up for more than one method of job submission.

Communicating with the network

After the print data has been prepared for printing and combined with print options data—either by the application software or by a print job submission utility—the data is sent over the network.

DocuPrint supports TCP/IP, AppleTalk, and Novell NetWare network communications protocols.

The following table lists the client workstations supported by DocuPrint NPS/IPS, and the networking options and job submission methods available for each client.
