2. Controller components and options
This chapter describes the components and options available for
the Xerox DocuPrint 100/115/135/155/180 EPS controller.
Controller overview
The controller receives data from a mainframe host or a
workstation client, processes the data, and sends it to the printer.
The controller also provides the printer with print data and
commands, and receives status information from the printer.
The controller consists of a high performance Sun workstation
processor running Solaris software. Also resident on the
controller is the DocuSP software, which manages all printing,
diagnostic, and administrative functions on the printing system.
The DocuSP software includes a full color graphical user
interface (GUI). Using the GUI, you set up and configure the
system, set up and implement system options, and manage print
jobs.
Accessing
DocuSP remotely
(Remote
Workflow)
Remote Workflow, a remote graphical user interface, is available
for installation from a CD. The remote GUI allows you to manage
your DocuSP-based printers from a single PC or Sun
workstation. You may set your preferences from the remote client
to disable or enable some or all connections.
Remote Workflow allows you to configure the printers that you
want to manage, and provides real time status of the printers.
You may switch between the printers that you are managing, but
you can display only one printer GUI at a time.
The Remote Workflow GUI looks and functions the same as the
local DocuSP GUI on the controller.
