Guide to Submitting Jobs from the Client 4-1
4. Submitting print jobs using
Macintosh drivers
You can send documents to your DocuPrint NPS/IPS printer
from your Macintosh in two ways:
• From your Macintosh drivers
DocuPrint allows you to transparently send ASCII files and
page description layout (PDL) files written in PostScript level
2 from your Macintosh to the printer. This capability is
provided by AppleTalk, which enables you to print directly to
network printers.
• From Xerox Document Submission (XDS) client software
XDS client software is intended for users of Apple Macintosh
computers running System 8.6 or greater. Your Macintosh
must be connected to the Ethernet network communication
utility using AppleTalk through EtherTalk Phase 2.
This chapter explains how to print from your Macintosh drivers.
For information on printing through the XDS software, refer to the
Guide to Job Submission for Macintosh
. This guide is part of the
Xerox Production Print Services series.
For information on installation, refer to the “Setting up
workstations” chapter in this document.
To print a document from a Macintosh, you must first create or
set up a LaserWriter printer or an AdobePS printer, then you can
submit the job. You can also monitor or control printing from your
Macintosh. The following sections outline these procedures.
Selecting a driver
You may select the following drivers:
• LaserWriter driver, version 7.x
• LaserWriter driver, version 8.x
• AdobePS driver, version 8.5.1.
