Xerox-supplied
printer interface
The printer interface cables provide high-speed data transport
and communication between the printer controller and the
printer.
Xerox-supplied
DocuPrint printer
The printer accepts data from the printer controller and prints the
document according to the print options specified by the user.
The printer also provides optional paper stitching and stacking.
Connectivity configurations
The NPS/IPS can process network PDL and IPDS jobs
concurrently.
To support the submission of jobs from a variety of hosts,
configuration possibilities include:
• The same Token Ring or Ethernet connection can be used for
both IPDS and Postscript/PCL.
• Both a Token Ring card and an Ethernet card can reside in
the Sun workstation controller, with one being used for IPDS
and the other for PostScript/PCL.
• Bus and tag attachment through the channel interface can be
used for IPDS jobs from a channel-attached host; Token Ring
or Ethernet connection can be used for jobs submitted over
the network.
NPS/IPS concurrent printing
The Xerox NPS/IPS can receive a variety of data streams
including IPDS, PostScript Levels 1 and 2, PCL 5c, PCL 5e, TIFF,
and ASCII. The system automatically senses the type of job and
processes it appropriately.
When your system is printing IPDS jobs, it can accept network
PDL data streams in the background. When network PDL jobs
are printing, only one IPDS job can be queued.
