PrintingScout Alerts
PrintingScout is an automated tool that is installed with the Xerox printer driver. It checks the
printer status when a print job is sent. If the printer is unable to print a job, PrintingScout
displays an alert on the user’s computer screen to let them know that the printer needs
attention. The user can click the alert to view instructions explaining how to fix the problem.
PrintingScout provides real-time support to users, while eliminating many of the help calls
requesting printer support. PrintingScout saves you time for more critical tasks.
PhaserSMART Technical Support
PhaserSMART Technical Support is an automated, internet-based support system that uses the
user’s default web browser to send diagnostic information from the printer to the Xerox
website for analysis. PhaserSMART Technical Support examines the information, diagnoses
the problem, and proposes a solution. If the problem is not resolved with the solution,
PhaserSMART Technical Support assists the user in opening a Service Request with Xerox
Customer Support.
