place and properly connected. The following is a summary of major
software components installed on the Printer Controller:

operating system; not all standard operating system
features are available).
— DocuPrint NPS software for the user interface, printer
driver, PDL decomposer, Job Pool Manager, and other
operating system utilities. Licensing is required for the
DocuPrint NPS software.
— Xerox client protocol software (print command)
downloaded to client workstations or PCs as a means to
communicate with the Printer Controller.

Using font installation commands, you can load other Type 0,
Type 1, or Type 3 PostScript fonts from a MS-DOS-formatted,
3.5-inch diskette or CD-ROM disk. Type 0 fonts must conform to
a specification available from Xerox. Refer to the Xerox

Managing the System, “Installing fonts,” for more information on
