ColorQube™ 9201/9202/9203

A certificate from a Certificate Authority or a server functioning as a Certificate Authority for example Windows 2000 running Certificate Services can be uploaded to the device.

Note

A separate request is required for each Xerox device.

With SSL enabled (from the Connectivity / Protocols / HTTP selections of the Properties tab of Internet Services), and a digital certificate installed, remote users accessing the system over an HTTP based interface are assured of having their network communications protected against eavesdropping and tampering, using strong encryption. The only action required by the workstation user is to type https://, followed by the IP address (or fully qualified domain name) of the system, into the Address or URL box of the web browser. The subsequent acceptance of a Digital Certificate completes the exchange of the Public Key enabling the encryption process to proceed.

Information Checklist

Before starting the installation procedure, please ensure the following items are available or have been performed:

An IP Address or Host Name must be configured on the device.

DNS must be enabled and configured on the device.

HTTP must be enabled so that Internet Services can be accessed.

Ensure the system time configured on the device is accurate. This is used to set the start time for self signed certificates.

Creating a Digital Certificate

1.At your Workstation, open the web browser and enter the IP address of the device in the Address bar, and press [Enter].

2.Click the [Properties] tab.

3.If prompted, enter the Administrator User ID and Password. The default is [admin] and [1111].

4.Click on the [Login] button.

5.Click on the [Security] link.

6.Select [Machine Digital Certificate Management] in the directory tree.

Note

SSL cannot be implemented until a digital certificate is installed on the system.

7.Click on the [Create New Certificate] button.

8.Select either Self Signed Certificate or Certificate Signing Request radio button.

Note

A self-signed certificate is inherently less secure than installing a certificate signed by a trusted, third party Certificate Authority (CA). However, specifying a self-signed certificate is the easiest way to start using SSL. A self-signed certificate is also the only option if your company does not have a Server functioning as a Certificate Authority (Windows 2000 running Certificate Services, for example), or does not wish to use a third party CA.

9.Click on the [Continue] button.

10.If you selected Self Signed Certificate, fill out the form with your 2 Letter Country Code, State/Province Name, Locality Name, Organization Name, Organization Unit, Common Name, E-mail Address, and Days of Validity.

11.Click on the [Apply] button to continue. Values from the form will be used to establish a self-signed certificate, and you will be returned to the main page.

Xerox 9201, 9202, 9203 manual Information Checklist, Creating a Digital Certificate

9202, 9201, 9203 specifications

The Xerox 9201, 9202, and 9203 copiers, introduced during the late 1970s and early 1980s, represent a significant leap in office automation technology. These models were part of Xerox's innovative line of copiers, catering to various business needs through their unique features and capabilities.

One of the cornerstone technologies behind the Xerox 9200 series is xerography, a process developed by Chester Carlson in the 1930s. The photocopiers use a dry electrophotographic process, which relies on a photosensitive drum, enabling high-quality and high-speed copying. This technology championed the transition from traditional printing methods to more efficient office practices, revolutionizing how documents were reproduced.

The Xerox 9201 was known for its robust capability to handle a significant volume of copies, appealing primarily to mid-sized organizations. It boasted an impressive speed of up to 80 copies per minute, catering to high-demand settings without compromising the quality of output.

The Xerox 9202 was an enhancement over its predecessor, introducing more advanced features such as automatic document feeding, which significantly reduced manual handling and increased productivity. It also supported various paper sizes, making it versatile for different tasks, from simple memos to full-size reports. Additional capabilities included collating, sorting, and stapling, allowing users to complete comprehensive document preparation in a single pass.

The Xerox 9203 further built upon these advancements, offering even faster copying speeds of up to 100 copies per minute. It also allowed for electronic sorting and featured an integrated mail room solution ideal for larger organizations. The 9203’s user interface was designed for ease of use, paving the way for accessible technology in the workplace.

All three models leveraged advanced optics and imaging technology to ensure sharp, clear reproductions. The capacity for duplex printing was a notable feature, enabling users to print on both sides of the paper, which not only saved resources but also contributed to environmentally friendly practices.

Overall, the Xerox 9200 series exemplified the transition towards multifunctional copiers that incorporated advanced features for efficiency, quality, and ease of use in office environments. Their impact on the industry helped shape modern photocopying, setting the benchmark for future models through their blend of technology and practicality. These machines remain a testament to Xerox's legacy in imaging technology and office automation.
