Creating an LPR port

1.To connect via TCP/IP, double-click LPR Port in the Printer Ports dialog box. If LPR Port is not listed in this box, the Microsoft TCP/IP Printing Service must be installed on the NT machine:

a.Click Start, Settings, Control Panel, and Network.

b.Click Services, then click Add.

c.Select Microsoft TCP/IP Printing, then click OK and install this service. The original Windows NT distribution CD-ROM is needed during installation.

N O T E

The TCP/IP protocol must also be installed on the server. Click the Protocol tab to verify if it is installed. See your Windows NT documentation for details. Reboot Windows NT after installing TCP/IP.

2.In the Add LPR compatible printer dialog box, enter the printer's IP address or DNS name in the box labeled Name or address of server providing lpd. In the box marked Name of printer or print queue on that server, enter PS or AUTO in uppercase. Click OK.

3.When returned to the Printer Ports box, click Close.

4.At the Add Printer Wizard dialog box, click the box next to this new port; a check mark is added. Click Next.

Creating an AppleTalk port

1.In the Printer Port dialog box, double-clickAppleTalk Printing Devices.

2.In the Available AppleTalk Printing Devices dialog box, select the zone where the printer resides. If no zone name appears, double-click the zone icon.

3.Windows NT searches for all AppleTalk devices in that zone and displays a list; double click your printer.

4.Windows NT prompts you to capture the printer; click No. (Capturing the printer causes it to disappear from the Chooser.)

5.After adding the printer port, click the box next to the new port to select it; click Next.

840, 780, 360 specifications

Xerox has long been a pioneer in the field of printing and copying technology, and its 360, 780, and 840 models exemplify the groundbreaking advancements made by the company in the late 20th century. These machines are significant not just for their capabilities but also for how they transformed workplaces into efficient hubs for document management.

The Xerox 360, introduced in the 1970s, was notable for its innovative use of electrostatic transfer technology. This method allowed for the rapid and high-quality reproduction of documents, setting a new standard for both speed and clarity. With a printing speed of up to 120 copies per minute, the 360 was designed for high-volume environments, making it ideal for businesses that required efficient document distribution. Its ability to handle different media types, including transparencies, further expanded its utility.

Moving on to the Xerox 780, released shortly after the 360, this model built upon its predecessor's success by introducing additional features that catered to the evolving needs of users. One of the key advancements in the 780 was its ability to incorporate advanced finishing options, such as stapling and hole-punching, directly from the machine. This integration streamlined document production processes, reducing the need for manual tasks and enhancing workflow efficiency. The Xerox 780’s intelligent control panel also provided users with easy navigation and troubleshooting, minimizing downtime.

The Xerox 840 took another leap forward, focusing on integrating digital technology into the printing process. Introduced in the early 1980s, this model featured enhanced digital image processing capabilities, resulting in superior image quality and consistency. The 840 also supported duplex printing, allowing for automatic double-sided copies, which not only saved paper but also demonstrated a commitment to sustainability practices as environmental concerns began to rise. The combination of these features made the 840 particularly well-suited for corporate environments where document quality and efficiency were paramount.

Overall, the Xerox 360, 780, and 840 series were landmark achievements in photocopying technology. Their advanced features, such as high-speed output, diverse media handling, and enhanced finishing options, established Xerox as a leader in the industry. These machines not only improved productivity but also set a precedent for future innovations, influencing the trajectory of printing technology for years to come. As businesses continue to evolve, the foundational technologies pioneered by these models remain integral to modern document management solutions.
