8-2 XEROX DOCUPRINT 96/4635/180 IPS INSTALLATION PLANNING GUIDE
Your responsibilities
Xerox is responsible for the physical installation of the printer
components and for loading the software and applications. You have
the general site responsibility of ensuring that the right personnel,
supplies, and network information are available.
At the time of installation, you should do the following:
• Make sure that your system administrator is available during the
loading of software.
• If you plan to operate in Dual Mode, for software loading
purposes, be prepared to provide Xerox personnel with any
network information.
• Have test jobs ready to run.
• Have the necessary parameters defined to configure PSF for
connectivity to your IPS printer.
• Have list of stocks you want used for your default input tray
configuration.
• Have your operators available for training.
• Sysgen your host to print to an AFP1-type printer. Refer to the
IBM ITSC Distributing AFP Printing from a Host System
(#GG24-4493) documentation for further information.
• If your system will be channel-attached, make available a bus
and tag connection from the host system as follows:
— AS/400 requires a Barr/AFD or PS/2 with a channel card.
— RS/6000 requires a channel card for IPS connectivity.
— PS/2 requires a channel card for IPS connectivity.
• Make AFP application resources available at a resolution of 300
dpi to optimize output quality.
• Check the documentation and software kits against their
packing lists for completeness.
• Remember you are responsible for supplying, installing, and
maintaining your Token Ring or Ethernet Local Area network
that connects your host with your printer controller.
Refer to the installation planning checklist in the “Preparing for
installation” chapter of this guide for a complete list of responsibilities.
