Issue 2 | Changing server driver defaults from a remote workstation |
You must administer the printer from the server or workstation where is installed.
When using a client/server printing model where the driver is loaded on the NT server and “shared”on the client workstation, NT allows you to change the server driver default settings from any workstation on the network. If you attempt this with the Xerox NT Postscript driver, you may experience “Out of memory”or “Invalid handle”errors.
Workaround
Alter the default settings of the driver only from the server console.
Also, do not select <OK> in the driver defaults dialog (from a remote workstation) because the buffer overflow may occur even though you do not have sufficient rights to change these defaults.

Select [Network Printer] during installation and specify an NT server with the correct driver already loaded.

The symptoms of a problem installation would include features that can not be set to the desired value or features not working as expected (i.e., pink stock instead of white). The simplest way to verify that the files are installed correctly is to print a document to file and then edit the

where 1.xx.xx refers to the driver version. Ensure that this matches the version that you installed and the version shown in the [Help: About] box.
