Optional host-resident software packages

This section describes a few of the many host-resident software packages available for use with your Xerox DocuPrint 180 LPS. For information on a specific program, please contact your site representative.

Xerox Pen Plotter Interface (XPPI)/DCF XPPI/XDGI is a host-resident software package (on IBM MVS or VM/ and GDDM Interface (XDGI) CMS) that translates computer-generated text and graphics into

high-quality images that can be printed on a Xerox DocuPrint 180 LPS. A host-independent version of XPPI/XDGI is also available for non-IBM users. Refer to XPPI/XDGI documentation for more information.

Host Forms Description Language HFDL is a host-resident forms design software package (on IBM (HFDL) MVS or VM) that allows forms to be created, changed, and merged

with data at the host for printing.

Xerox Printer Access Facility (XPAF) XPAF enhances the capabilities and use of your DocuPrint 180 LPS in an IBM MVS/XA environment. For example, it allows you to change printer destinations without restructuring the data stream. XPAF accepts numerous types of data streams, transforms or conditions them, and then sends them to the selected printer. To users of IBM Advanced Function Printing (AFP), XPAF appears to be an extension of the IBM product.

Note: Consult with your sales representative about the appropriate options for your laser printing system.
