1. Introduction
The System Guide provides the information needed to perform
system administration tasks for configuring and maintaining the
Xerox Document Services Platform (DocuSP) for printing
systems.
About this guide
This guide is intended for Network and System Administrators
responsible for setting up and maintaining Xerox printers with
DocuSP software. Users should have an understanding of the
Sun workstation and be familiar with Solaris and basic UNIX
commands. This includes the use of text editors such as vi or
textedit and the ability to maneuver within the Solaris
environment. The System Administrator is expected to have a
working knowledge of Local Area Networks (LANs),
communication protocols, and the applicable client platforms to
assist them in a customer site setup.

accomplished through the graphical user interface and must be
set using the gwConfig utility through a UNIX Terminal window.
The IPP gateway is configured using the DocuSP interface.
Internet Services (HTTP) Gateway Configuration
Perform the following to configure the HTTP gateway:
1. Start the configuration utility. Type ./ gwConfig.
NOTE: Refer to the instructions in the section, IPP Gateway
Configuration for information about starting the configuration.
2. Perform the following to set up the Internet Services (HTTP)
Gateway:
Enter the name of the gateway to be configured: Internet
Services
Configure the Internet Services Gateway? [Y/N] y
Enter name: Value data
Printer URL: http://<controller name>.<domain
name>.com
NOTE: Use the IP address of the controller if there is no
domain name. For example, http://52.126.255.255.com
3. A confirmation message of the entered value displays.
Confirm that the entry is correct and enter y for yes.
4. Continue with this process for every value to be configured.
5. When all of the desired values have been configured, press
<Enter> at the Enter Name: [Value Data line].

8. When complete, close the Terminal window and select
System, Restart on the DocuSP user interface.
IPP Gateway Configuration
Perform the following to configure the IPP Gateway.
1. On the DocuSP Controller, open a new terminal window and
login as root
2. Type csh and press <Enter>.
3. Type cd /opt/XRXnps/XRXipp
4. Display a list of the directory contents by typing ls. The file
gwConfig should be displayed.
5. Type ./gwConfig and press <Enter>.
6. The gateways that may be configured are: SNMP Gateway,
Internet Services, and IPP Gateway.
If necessary, make the terminal window large enough to
display the list while configuring each value desired.
The only value necessary for the IPP and Internet Services
Gateways is the Printer URI value.
7. Answer the following questions with the information supplied
as follows:
• Enter the name of the gateway to be configured: IPP
Gateway
• Configure the IPP Gateway? [Y/N] y
• Enter name: Value data
• Printer URL: http://something.com:631/servlet/
IPPServlet.IppPrinter
NOTE: The text "something.com" is the server name and
domain name of the DocuSP controller on which you are
configuring the gateway. For example, server name.domain
name. If no domain name is used, enter the IP address of the
controller without the .com. For example, http://
52.126.255.255:631/servlet/IPPServlet.IppPrinter.
8. Continue with the above process for every value to be
configured.

10.When asked to accept the values and update the
configuration, enter y for yes.
The configuration utility exits.
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Configuration
To configure the SNMP configuration, follow the instructions for
configuring the HTTP Gateway in the previous section.
SNMP provides you with the status of network devices. If you are
familiar with SNMP manager, you may want to configure the
SNMP gateway using gwConfig and the information that follows.
NOTE: SNMP requires a standard FlexLm license. The System
Administrator must enable SNMP in License Manager.
Xerox recommends the following third–party SNMP software
mangers:
• IBM Network Printer Manager (NT)
• TNG Unicenter (NT)
• HP OpenView (UNIX, NT)
• Xerox CentreWare (UNIX, NT)
NOTE: The SNMP manager (HP OpenView) may have a
number of requests into DocuSP for information. Some of the
requested information may not be a supported data set on
DocuSP. Therefore, the SNMP client/manager displays "no
value...etc".
NOTE: You can have more than one SNMP manager running at
the same time.

Printer and job messages
SNMP can broadcast messages about the printer and the jobs
on the system. Printer messages may announce that the printer
is idle, printing, or out of paper. Job messages announce that
jobs are pending, processing, or completed. Other job related
information may include the job owner’s name, the job quantity,
the job identifier, etc.
NOTE: ”Forwarding” is not a job state that is broadcast by the
controller; therefore, job forwarding information will not be
displayed by the SNMP job managers.
The information that is displayed at an SNMP Manager may not
always reflect the exact status of a job or printer on the DocuSP
Controller. Those Managers that do not support loading of
Management Information Bases (MIBs) will only display the
printer and job status that they support.
SNMP MIB Support
DocuSP 3.0 SNMP MIB file uses the Xerox Common
Management Interface (XCMI) version 4.0. The following lists the
MIB files included for version 4.0:
• rfc1213 - RFC1213-MIB (MIB-II)
• rfc2790 - HOST-RESOURCES-MIB (XCMI rev 000817)

NDS Setup
When using Novell Netware, a preferred server needs to be set
for environments where there is more than one server on the
network. If you are running NDS in an environment with more
than one NDS server, to ensure optimal operation, you should
specify a preferred server. To do this, perform the following steps
(you will need to know your NDS Tree, Context, and Preferred
Server Names):
1. Type su root and enter password when you are prompted.
2. Type cd /opt/XRXnps/XRXnwqsgw/bin/.
3. Type ./QServerSetup and select the return key.
4. Select the appropriate option:
• If there is already an existing NDS QServer Setup that
you wish to add a Preferred server name to, select choice
2.
• If you are creating a new NDS QServer Setup with a
preferred server name, select choice 1.
5. Select choice 4 to list the current setups to make sure your
preferred server was added successfully.
6. Restart the DocuSP software.
NOTE: If logging is enabled, you can check /opt/XRXnps/log/
QServer.Debug.Log to make sure that connection is made with
the Preferred server. Ensure that jobs can be submitted from
Netware and properly received and printed.

3. Backup and Restore
Software configuration information and customer specific files
should be backed up to a safe location, either to tape or to a
remote server on a regular basis. It is valuable to back up a
system to a remote location when upgrades of hardware are
performed.
Software configuration information should be saved when the
system has been installed and all queues and printers have been
set up. Also, when any printer or queue properties are changed.
The Configuration utility provided with the DocuSP software will
backup all of the DocuSP configuration files in the /opt/XRXnps/
configuration directory. This includes the preferences settings,
printer set up, and queue set up files.
If a software upgrade or new software installation is required, a
representative will perform the software installation. In each
case, certain portions of the system configuration will need to be
restored or reentered by the customer.
Backup
The following information should also be backed up on a regular
basis or when the DocuSP controller has been modified:
• Customized scripts installed by the customer
• Unique third–party software and related data, or Xerox–
developed solutions and related data
• DNS, NIS, or NIS+ files
• Jobs saved to the DocuSP controller using the Save Feature
• Non–Xerox supplied Sun patches
• Customized links to directories
• Continuous Feed custom imposition files
• Continuous Feed custom print mark files
In addition, it is recommended that the System Administrator
document the following information:
Common Controller

Backup and Restore
System Guide
• Any soft fonts that have been loaded on the system
• Contents of the hosts and hosts.equiv files
• The allowable users
• Any customer–specific passwords
NOTE: In the event of a software upgrade or install by Xerox,
Xerox is not responsible for the restoration of the above items to
the DocuSP controller.
NOTE: It is highly recommended that a complete system image
be backed up to tape or a remote location on a regular basis.
Having a current system image stored separate from the
DocuSP controller will ensure that in the event of a failure of the
system or the hard disks, the system can be easily restored.
Refer to the appropriate SUN documentation for additional
information on saving a system image.
Restore
If only a software upgrade is performed on the DocuSP
controller, the system configuration information will typically be
retained.
During the upgrade, the Xerox Customer Service Representative
will provide a hardcopy of the system configuration information,
such as the contents of the /etc/hosts and /etc/hosts.equiv files,
the list of user names from the /etc/passwd file, and gateway
information from any installed optional gateways. If any
information needs to be recreated, the hardcopy will assist the
System Administrator in restoring the system. Any customized
software, saved files, or unique third–party information will have
to be restored by the System Administrator. If a hardware
installation is performed and there is no system image saved, the
System Administrator will have to restore or re-enter, at a
minimum, all of the information included on the hardcopy output
provided by the Xerox Customer Service Representative.

Xerox Backup and Restore (XBR) Utility for a DP100/115/135/180 EPS
System
Backing up a System
To backup a system, use a DocuPrint EPS controller with a QIC
tape drive, at least 3 tapes (maybe up to 6 QIC tapes), and the
XBR floppy.
NOTE: The most common reason for backup procedure failure
is a bad tape. Restart the backup process with a new tape. The
system has to be shutdown before the backup operation can be
performed.
1. Open a Terminal window.
2. In the terminal window, log in as root.
3. At the command prompt, type init 0 and press Enter.
4. At the Ok prompt, type boot -s. Steps 3 and 4 first shut down
the system, then reboot it in single-user mode.
5. Enter the root password.
6. Insert the XBR floppy in the disk drive and a blank tape in the
tape drive.
7. At the command-line prompt, type mkdir /a.
8. Type mount /dev/diskette /a and press <Enter>. This
command causes UNIX to access the diskette drive (/dev/
diskette) through the /a directory.
9. Type cd /a.
10.Type ./xbr but don’t forget the “.” before the “/”.
11. Type backup and as the system asks for a new tape, remove
the current tape, label it and insert a new tape (each tape
takes about 20 to 25 minutes to fill). After inserting a new
tape, type yes. The system may ask for a tape it has already
used (for example volume 2 again); ignore the number it
gives you and label the tape with the next number in the
sequence. This problem is caused by the underlying UNIX
utility that is being called multiple times (each time it is called,
it starts off at the beginning of the tape numbering sequence
and not at the number with which it left off).

System Guide
12.After the backup is complete, restart the system by typing
reboot and pressing Enter.
Restoring a System
Before you begin to restore the system, locate the CD labeled
"Solaris 8 CD (1 of 2)" from which to run the Operating System.
You will also need a system to restore to (with a QIC tape drive),
the XBR floppy, all the backup tapes that were made by the
previous procedure, the CD-ROM labeled "Solaris 8 CD (1 of 2)".
To restore the system, perform the following:
1. Insert the "Solaris 8 CD (1 of 2)" CD-ROM, the first tape, and
the XBR floppy into the system.
2. Open a Terminal window.
3. In the Terminal window, login as root.
4. At the command prompt, type init 0 and press <Enter>.
5. At the "ok" prompt, type boot -s
6. Once the system reboots, login as root.
7. Create a directory; type mount /dev/diskette /a
8. Type cd /a
9. Type ./xbr (don't forget the "." and "/")
10.Type restore
11. Answer y for yes to the question that comes up.
12.The system will then reboot.
13.Insert each tape as they are asked for and Press <Enter>.
14.Repeat the previous step twice.
15.The system will reboot. Login as root.
16.As the system requests a new tape, enter the next tape in the
sequence into the drive.
17.The system will display a message when the restore is
complete. To restart the system, type reboot and press
<Enter>.

4. Security and Network Setup
This section provides you with information on security regarding
the DocuSP controller and the Solaris Operating System
including access, changing logon levels, and enhancements of
the Solaris OS. Also included are general guidelines to security
related procedures that can be implemented to improve security
of the DocuSP controller and the Solaris OS.
Access and Security
UNIX accounts are defined during the installation process:
• root: has super user access to the workstation. The initial
password for this account is set during installation of the
operating system and should be obtained from the Xerox
service personnel.
NOTE: For security reasons, the root account password
should be changed as soon as the Xerox service personnel
have completed the installation.
• The Xerox user name is the account from which the Xerox
software runs. Use the Xerox user password for this account.
Contact your Customer Service Representative if this is
unknown.
• ftp: an account to permit some clients to retrieve their
software from the DocuSP controller using the TCP/IP
communication protocol. This account will be set to Read
Only access to the /export/home/ftp directory
• Pxrxsvc: the account for remote diagnostics by Xerox
service personnel. The DocuSP controller is accessed using
PPP communications via a modem.
NOTE: The user and group identifications, uid and gid, for the
Xerox accounts that are listed above cannot be arbitrarily
changed in the password and group files to new values because
the software is based on the proper access to the Xerox supplied
files.

System Guide
Overview of Security
The purpose of the security section is to provide information on
security regarding the DocuSP controller and the Solaris
Operating System. This section explains the new DocuSP
"Security Profile" policy and associated scripts provided that help
protect the system against unauthorized access and
modification. This feature has been added in response to
customer and enterprise security concerns. It is based on
Solaris Security Blueprints papers and tools as well as previous
security scripts created by Xerox.
Changing the logon level
The DocuSP software defaults to the Walk Up User access level
when the DocuSP software is started.
To log into the DocuSP as the System Administrator or Trusted
User, perform the following:
1. Select [System] from the DocuSP Print Services window.
2. Select [Logon]. The Logon dialog is displayed.
3. Select the Trusted User or System Administrator access level
and enter the correct password.
The initial passwords for Trusted User and System
Administrator can be obtained from your Xerox Service
Representative
NOTE: The various system passwords need to be changed
as soon as an install is complete. It is also advised that you
should have a process in place for changing the passwords
on a regular basis.
NOTE: The System Administrator should verify access to the
Xerox application for all levels before the service installation
personnel leave the site.
NOTE: To maintain security, it is recommended that any
restricted access login be terminated as soon as the session
has been completed.

Security and Network Setup
User Password changes
When the DocuSP software and system was installed, Xerox
provided a default root password for the UNIX environment. In
addition, default passwords were created for the DocuSP
Trusted User and System Administrator login levels. Xerox
strongly recommends that the customer change these
passwords from the default settings.
WARNING
Please be aware that Xerox Customer Support Personnel
must have access to the new root password for service and
support. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that
the root and system administrator passwords are available
for them.
The user and group identifications, uid and gid, for the Xerox
accounts that are listed above cannot be arbitrarily changed in
the password and group files to new values because the
software is based on the proper access to the Xerox supplied
files.
Roles and responsibilities
The following sections detail the roles and responsibilities for
setting and maintaining the security of the DocuSP controller.
Xerox responsibility
Xerox is committed to providing a level of security which will
allow the DocuSP controller to be a good network citizen in the
response to current security intrusions. Additional security
beyond this remains the responsibility of the customer.

Security and Network Setup
System Guide
Xerox is constantly evaluating the security of the DocuSP
controller and the Sun Solaris operating system. Xerox is
committed to providing the latest Solaris security patches
provided by Sun Microsystems in each major DocuSP release.
The DocuSP development team will also add Solaris security
patches in between major release cycles. All OS security
patches for applications that are added during a standard
DocuSP install will be included, even if the application code is
not normally used by DocuSP users. Security patches for
applications that are not loaded by a standard DocuSP install will
not be evaluated or included. Only the version of a patch
impacting security will be included. If a security patch has a
newer version that is not security related, then this patch will not
be updated to the newer version. Any security patch that is
determined to have a negative impact to DocuSP operation will
not be added.
Security Setup
System Security can be selected from the DocuSP. Select
[Medium] security to disable everything in the list of secure
features. Select [High] to enable security and to turn security on
for everything in the list of secure features.
If you have upgraded your DocuSP software from 3.6 to 3.7 and
you are having difficulty with application software that
communicated with the controller, set security to Medium to
resolve the problem.
DocuSP 3.7 security changes
To assist DocuSP customers, XDSS (Xerox DocuSP Security
Script) was added in the 3.12 software release to help secure the
operating system from unauthorized access and modification.
The DocuSP install routine prompted Xerox service personnel to
determine whether XDSS should be run. In addition, the XDSS
scripts were made resident on the controller so that they could
also be run by the customer at any time.

System Guide
Security and Network Setup
While the underlying XDSS content has not changed since its
inception, its implementation philosophy has been reversed in
the 3.7 release. Previously, XDSS was an option typically
chosen at install. Now the features are automatically
implemented with a scrape install. A scrape install includes both
the Solaris operating system and a DocuSP 3.7 release. This
corresponds with the “High” setting in the Security Profile
dialogue box under the System menu. The “Medium” setting
describes the default operating environment normally provided
by Sun. Upgrades, however, retain the previous security setting.
Note that if XDSS was disabled in 3.6 and DocuSP is upgraded
to 3.7 without an OS reload, the security setting will be medium.
WARNING
Since the “high” security setting disables a number of
commonly used services, it is important that customers
review this document and test this feature against their
mission-critical applications.
This document provides information on all modifications made by
XDSS so the customer can determine which security setting best
meets their needs. Some customers may find that some features
disabled by this script, such as telnet, FTP and NFS, are
required in their environment. If a certain application
communicated successfully with DocuSP 3.6 fails following a 3.7
upgrade but its communication mechanism is unknown to the
customer, it is recommended that the setting be temporarily
changed to “Medium” to determine if the high security setting is
the cause of this change. If further assistance is required to
manually disable or enable specific services listed in this
document, please contact the Customer Support Center or the
appropriate Sun documentation.
Using the High security setting
The following is a list of documents that are disabled when the
security setting is set to “High”:
• FTP (including anonymous FTP)
• telnet
• echo (Echoes back any character sent)
• discard (Discards everything sent)
• daytime (Displays the date and time)

Solaris file permissions secured
The fix-modes utility (from the Solaris Security Toolkit) adjusts
group and world write permissions. It is run with the '-s' option to
secure file permissions for Solaris files that were created at
install time only. Customer-generated files will not be affected.
NOTE: When this command is run, a file called /var/sadm/
install/content.mods is left. Do not delete this file. It contains
valuable information needed by fix modes to revert the changes
to the system file permissions if the security setting is changed
back to medium.
Network and name service changes
Disabling secure name service databases
The following databases are disabled when Security is invoked:
• passwd(4)
• group(4)

Multicast routing disabled
Multicast is used to send data to many systems at the same
timewhile using one address.
OS and host information hidden
The ftp, telnet and sendmail banners are set to null so that users
in cannot see the hostname and OS level. (Note that all of
these services are prohibited with a 'high' security setting, but if
they are re-enabled manually the hostname information will
remain hidden.)

NFS port monitor restricted
The NFS server normally accepts requests from any port

XDSS script components
For a greater degree of flexibility, individual scripts in the /opt/
XRXnps/bin directory may be run as root user. Script syntax is ./
scriptname (i.e ./configure-xdss)
The configure-xdss script
The configure-xdss script encompasses the entire feature set
available when the "High" security setting is chosen. It also has
one additional feature that the "High" setting does not have--the
ability to disable anonymous LP printing. The script asks three
questions on the following subjects:
Disabling LP Anonymous Printing
You can choose to disable anonymous printing on all existing LP
printer queues that are associated with the DocuSP virtual
printers. When anonymous LP is disabled, only systems that
have their IP address in the DocuSP controller /etc/hosts table
are authorized to submit LP requests. Answer y for yes to
disable this printing option.
DigiPath and Decomposition Services
DigiPath serves as a transferring station for files to the DocuSP
controller. The DigiPath configuration will ask two questions.
1. Do you want to disable DigiPath? If you answer “y”, both FTP,
NFS server, and the bwnfs daemon are disabled.
2. If the answer to question 1 is “n”, you are prompted with the
question, “Do you want to disable DigiPath Decomp services?” If
you answer “y”, the nfs.server and bwnfs daemons will be
disabled, but FTP is not disabled. When nfs.server is disabled,
no directory can be made available for other systems to mount
using UNIX NFS. Any third-party application that uses
MaestroNFS requires the bwnfs daemon to be enabled. Both
XPert Label software and also DigiPath Decomp Services use
MaestroNFS and thus require a "No" answer to this question.
NOTE: Before answering yes to these questions, ensure that
the save repository is not normally shared and that other
workflows or third party applications do not require this
capability.

Remote shell internet service
If you are using the legacy Xerox print command line client (the
software is not distributed with this release), you will need to use
the remote shell internet service to transfer files to the DocuSP
controller. However, if you are not using the print command line
client, it is strongly recommended that the remote shell internet
service is disabled. When these three questions are answered,
all remaining aspects of the "high" security setting are
implemented.
disable-security and enable-security scripts
To disable security, run the disable-security script. It restores the
system to the state it was before configure-xdss was run.
The enable-security script was designed as a companion to
configure-xdss. It configures all of the changes in the “high”
security setting, with the exception of the three questions asked
by the configure-xdss script (anonymous LP, DigiPath, rsh).
enable-ftp and disable-ftp scripts
These scripts allow for enabling and disabling FTP alone. You
must have FTP enabled when using a Continuous Feed system,
or DigiPath Production Print and NetAgent.
FTP is also required for the iGen Call For Assistance (CFA)
feature. This uses FTP to push IOT logs and a DocuSP outload
back to the DocuSP controller.
enable-remote-diagnostics/disable-remote-diagnostics
scripts
The enable-remote-diagnostics script re-enables the asppp
daemon (asynchronous Point-to-Point Protocol), which is
required for modem dial-in. The script also re-enables FTP and
telnet because they are used in dialup sessions. All three of
these services are disabled when the security setting is "High".
The disable script disables them.
User Account Management

process:

Security and Network Setup
System Guide
• root: has super user access to the workstation. The initial
password for this account is set during installation of the
operating system and should be obtained from the Xerox
service personnel.
• xrxusr: the Xerox user name is the account from which the
Xerox software runs. Use the Xerox user password for this
account. Contact your Customer Service Representative if
this is unknown
• anonymous ftp user: an account to permit some clients to
retrieve their software from the DocuSP controller using the
TCP/IP communication protocol. This account will be set to
Read Only access to the /export/home/ftp directory. Note that
with security set to high all FTP operations are prohibited.
This account may also be removed if the remote Xerox print
client is not used.
• Pxrxsvc: the account for remote diagnostics by Xerox service
personnel. The DocuSP controller is accessed using PPP
communications via a modem. This account is only created if
remote diagnostics has been enabled.
Print command line client from remote systems
The following contains the user and client requirements when
using the Xerox print command line client from remote systems.
To allow non-root user command line clients to submit jobs to the
DocuSP controller, the Sun workstation needs two pieces of
information in its database:
• Users must be listed in the password database.
• The client workstations need to be described as trusted hosts
for the user account. This allows remote operation
commands at the DocuSP controller from a client
workstation, such as rcp, without the requirement for
supplying a password. List the names of the trusted host
machines in the /etc/hosts.equiv file, or Set the /etc/
hosts.equiv file to trust all known workstations by setting the
last line in the file to a plus sign (this is a security risk).
It is not necessary for the user to have the following on the
DocuSP controller:
• Network home directory.
• Meaningful home directory at the DocuSP controller.

Other security tips
Configure for xrxusr
The DocuSP controller can be configured to force the user to log
in as xrxusr when the system is rebooted. To do this, perform the
following:
1. Set up the xrxusr password as root user in a terminal type:
passwd xrxusr <enter> as root user. The user will be
prompted for the new password.
2. Edit the DocuSP startup file as root user in a terminal window
type: cd /opt/XRXnps/XRXinit/bin <enter>. Make backup of
original startup file by typing: cp XRXnps_Start
XRXnps_Start.orig. Type:/usr/openwin/bin/textedit
XRXnps_Start <enter>. In the Text Editor window, scroll
down to the bottom of the file and add a # sign in front of the
line that reads: su - $user
3. Reboot and configure xrxusr login environment. Reboot the
system. The CDE login prompt window will appear. Choose
CDE as the desktop environment. This only needs to be
configured at the first login. This will need to be re configured
with every DocuSP upgrade. With every boot, the operator
will need to log in as xrxusr. This has no other impact on
system operation.

Document and backup
Always document and backup all files that you modify in case
some unforeseen problem occurs. Example: #cp /etc/inet/
inetd.conf /etc/inet/ inetd.conf.orig <RETURN> If, for
whatever reason, the DocuSP controller will not boot up after
your modifications, you can restore the software to its original
configuration by booting to single user mode. This is done by
typing boot -s from the ok> prompt. You will be prompted for the
root password. Upon login as root, you can copy the original files
back.
If you are unfamiliar with the vi editor, you can use the GUI
based Text Editor program. To launch the editor as root user, in a
terminal window login as root and enter the following: #/usr/
openwin/bin/textedit & <RETURN> Textedit leaves a backup of
the modified file in the same directory. This backup file will have
a % after the name. This file can be deleted if you have already
backed up the original file.
When configure-xdss is run, it logs all of the actions into the /opt/
XRXnps/log/xdss_log.txt. View this file to view options that have
been implemented.
When you make a manual change to the /etc/inetd.conf file, to
avoid rebooting the controller, you can retstart the inetd process.
To do this, as root user type: ps -e | grep inetd <enter> and note
the process ID returned. Then, type: kill -HUP #### (where ####
denotes the process ID).

5. Printing
The following information will help you understand how to enable
and print using FIFO printing. The various printing utilities that
are available are also outlined in this section as well as using
TIFF orientation, MICR, and VIPP.
First In/First Out (FIFO) Printing
When jobs are printed in the same order in which they are
received, this is FIFO printing. The Queue must also have the
Release status set to Yes.
Controller settings for limited FIFO scheduling/printing
To set up the system to perform in a FIFO manner, perform the
following:
1. Logon as System Administrator.
2. In DocuSP Print Services window, select [Options:
Preferences: Job Policy: Resources Required] and then
select [System Fault].
3. In DocuSP Print Services window, select [Options:
Preferences: Font Site Policy: Use Substitute Font] then
select [Yes].
4. Set up one queue as the FIFO queue.
5. When FIFO is critical, set the release status of all other
queues to [No] and only submit jobs to the FIFO queue.
Important information about FIFO:
• To preserve the FIFO Job Scheduling order, set the release
status of the FIFO queue to No in Queue Manager, and do
not hold an individual job in Job Manager.
Common Controller
5-1
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
Printing
System Guide
• If FIFO is desired dynamically, all jobs must be submitted
from a single client to a single queue with a release status set
to [Yes]. All other queues must have the release status set to
No.
• If the queue that is set to use FIFO is not currently releasing
jobs to the printer, then the jobs may not appear in the correct
FIFO order. Select [Job Manager] and then select the
Options menu. Select [Redisplay] to view the jobs in correct
FIFO order.
NOTE: Some error conditions within the printer can cause a job
to fault because there is no recovery operation that the operator
can perform. These jobs are dropped out of the sequence,
destroying the original FIFO order. The controller is not designed
to wait for corrective action by an operator for a faulted job
before advancing to the next job which has already been
scheduled and is displaying a ‘Waiting for Printer’ status.
Enable/Disable FIFO Job Scheduling
To enable or disable FIFO job scheduling, perform the following:
1. Open a Terminal Window.
2. Log in as root.
3. At the #, type the following cd /opt/XRXnps/bin and press
<Enter>.
4. Type ./setfifomode and press <Enter>.
5. Respond as appropriate to the following prompts: ‘This
script is being run as root’
if the user is not logged in as root, the following message will
appear: ‘You must be root to run this script!’
The script will exit.
• If FIFO Job Scheduling is not enabled, the following will
appear:
’Currently FIFO Job Scheduling is off’
’Do you wish to enable FIFO Job Scheduling? (y/n)
• Enable FIFO Job Scheduling by typing y for yes, or n for
no.
The following messages will appear:

’You will need to Restart the DocuSP Software for
changes to take effect’
• If n for no is entered, the following will appear:
‘No Change Made’
• If FIFO Job Scheduling has previously been enabled, the
following will appear:
‘Currently FIFO Job Scheduling is on’
’Do you wish to disable FIFO Job Scheduling? (y/n)’
• Disable FIFO Job Scheduling by typing y for yes.
The following message will appear:
‘Disabling FIFO Job Scheduling’
’You will need to Restart the DocuSP Software for
changes to take effect’
• If n for no is entered, the following will appear:
‘No Change Made’
6. In the DocuSP Print Services, select [System] and select
[Restart] to complete either enabling or disabling the Limited
FIFO Job Scheduling option.
With FIFO Job Scheduling enabled, the Controller will schedule
jobs for printing in the order that Job ID’s are assigned to
incoming jobs. Therefore, if Job ID 2 completes its “Receiving
Data” status and goes “Pending” before Job ID 1, Job ID 1 will
still be scheduled for print before Job ID 2.
With FIFO Job Scheduling disabled, the Controller will schedule
the jobs for print as soon as they complete their “Receiving Data”
status in Job Manager. Therefore, Job ID 2 will be scheduled for
print before Job ID 1 if Job ID 2 goes “Pending” before Job ID 1.
The following table illustrates an example of FIFO Job
Scheduling.

ASCII and PCL Printing Utility
ASCII printing within various environments results in output that
is not always formatted as desired. Unfortunately, there is no
"standard" method for printing ASCII files. ASCII is a character
set and is not a Page Description Language. Therefore, ASCII
files do not contain format commands nor is there a de facto
standard for ASCII formatting. However, users often have the
requirement to match a specific format. The utility below helps
enable this formatting flexibility along with the feature in Queue
Manager that enables the ability to select the default document
format.
Impact on DocuSP printers
The DocuSP software automatically wraps ASCII files with a
predefined set of PostScript code and sends the data through
the PostScript decomposer. Unfortunately, this predefined
formatting does not always meet customer ASCII printing needs
and there are no "knobs" to change the formatting within
PostScript.
As an alternative, ASCII files can be identified as PCL and sent
through the PCL decomposer. The PCL decomposer does
provide some additional capabilities that can be used to print
ASCII files as desired.
To force ASCII files to use the PCL decomposer, change the file
format in Job Manager. This can also be done by changing the
queue default document property from ASCII to PCL.
setpclcontrol Utility
The setpclcontrol utility offers the following user controls:

System Guide
Printing
You may set the site default for the PCL decomposer line
termination. Setting these options allows both native PCL files
and ASCII streams forced through the PCL decomposer to be
conditioned with various combinations of carriage returns (CR),
line feeds (LF), and form feeds (FF). Mainframe and UNIX
environments typically requite some form of CR/LF/FF
adjustment.
This utility allows you to set a custom paper size to map to the
PCL escape sequence <esc>&|101A (which denotes “print on
custom stock size”). HP printers generally respond to this
command by imaging an area of 11.7 x 17.7 inches and then
printing the image, centered, on whatever stock is supplied by
the operator. The setpclcontrol utility allows you to specify a
single image and paper size to correspond with this escape
sequence.
NOTE: This utility is now covered on the DocuSP GUI. Select
the PCL tab and make selections to Line Termination.
Set lp/lprcopycount utility
The setlpcopycount utility allows the DocuSP customer to modify
the behavior of how the lp/lpr gateway should handle a copy
count of one. Beginning with DocuSP version 1.41.06, the
default setting ignores a copy count of one placed on the job by
the lp/lpr submission protocol. This allows the internal copy
count set by the PDL to take precedence. The following utility
allows a customer to return the DocuSP to its original behavior:
either imply a copy count of one when none is specified or honor
a copy count of one if specified on the command line. This copy
count of one will take precedence over the copy count set by the
PDL.
Syntax of the utility:
setlpcopycount -f option
0 - Specifies that LP will set a copy count of
1 if received.
1 - Specifies that LP will ignore a copy count
of 1 if received.(default)
No option will display current setting

Socket Gateway Configuration Utility: setVPSoption
On the DocuSP gui, gateways can be configured using the
Setup pull down menu. Selecting [Gateways] from the Setup
menu opens a window with the various gateway tabs available.
The following describes how to configure the gateways without
using the DocuSP.
This utility allows you to configure the two ports of the Socket
Gateway to either remove the echo commands (VPS) or leave
the data unaltered (NONVPS).
If you are a DT61xx or DT65/75/90 non-LCDS customer,
configure both ports as NONVPS. DP1xxxEPS and DT 75/90
customers using LCDS need to decide whether to configure one
or both ports as VPS. If a port is not being used, it is
recommended to set the port to NONVPS.
The Socket Gateway allows two ports to be configured at one
time. Regardless of the port number assigned on the Socket
Configuration Utility, the socket port configured on the first port
will always be Port 1, and the second line is always Port 2. Both
ports will are set as VPS upon installation.
Syntax of the utility:
setVPSoption -1<option> -2<option>
0 - Specifies Port 1
1 - Specifies Port 2
option -VPS(default) or NONVPS
An example of the utility is as follows:
docusp_printer% su root
Password:
# cd /opt/XRXnps/bin
# ./setVPSoption -1VPS -2NONVPS
This sets Port 1 as VPS and Port 2 as NONVPS)
# ./setVPSoption -1VPS
This sets Port1 as VPS and leaves Port 2 unaltered.
# ./setVPSoption -2NONVPS
This leaves Port 1 unaltered and sets Port 2 as NONVPS.
Restart the DocuSP software after setting this option.

TIFF files
This section discusses the TIFF tags supported by the DocuSP
software and the guidelines for printing TIFF files to achieve the
optimum performance.
TIFF orientation
The DocuSP Save Feature stores TIFF images in different
orientations on the DocuTech/DocuPrint 75/90 and the
DocuTech 61XX. This is done by design to optimize productivity
and allow for the different finishing requirements of the print
engines controlled by the DocuSP software.
• DocuTech 61xx -- The DocuTech 61xx finishes the trail edge
of the pages and orients the image appropriately.
• DocuTech/DocuPrint 75/90 -- The DocuTech/DocuPrint 75/90
finishes the lead edge of the pages and orients the image
properly.
This difference can result in PostScript/VIPP files that call
Decomposition Service TIFFs being incompatible across the
different platforms. The imported TIFFs may print with a different
orientation relative to the PostScript image.
Prior to DocuSP 3.1, the controller utilized a conversion tool
(TIFF to PostScript) to process and print TIFF files. A native TIFF
decomposer has now been implemented to directly process TIFF
files for printing. This improves the TIFF printing performance for
certain types of files. Decomposer level adjustments are also
now available for the TIFF decomposer at the Queue level.
NOTE: Multipage TIFF files are now supported. Single TIFF files
can now contain multiple TIFF images to be processed and
printed.
Performance considerations
Optimum performance can be achieved for printing TIFF files by
following the guidelines listed below:
• Use CCITT Group 4 compression for speed.
• Use a resolution of 600 dpi to eliminate the need to scale the
image.
Common Controller

Printing
System Guide
• Use a TIFF orientation tag value of 8 to eliminate the need to
rotate the image.
• Use single strip image data to eliminate additional image data
manipulations.
• Use a value of 1 for Fill Order to eliminate additional image
data manipulations.
Supported TIFF tags
Below is a list of the TIFF tags supported by the DocuSP
software.
Compression
– Default = 1
– DocuSP supports values of 1 (uncompressed), 2 (CCITT
Modified Huffman RLE, 32773 (PackBits), 3 (CCITT Group

MICR Enablement
Magnetic Ink Character Recognition Definition (MICR) is a
standard character set which, when printed with magnetic ink,
allows machine recognition of the characters. This is commonly
used in banking for account numbers, routing codes and
amounts on checks. On Xerox MICR printers, the complete page
is printed with magnetic toner and the characteristics of the
MICR fonts allow only the MICR characters to be comprehended
by MICR readers. MICR printing is valued by customers because
it allows creation of documents that can be mechanically
processed and magnetically read by MICR equipment.
MICR fonts are available on a separate floppy. Fonts include:
PCL, PostScript and LCDS. A separate floppy is used to allow
you to control MICR font usage. The supplied soft fonts can be
loaded or deleted using Administration's font installation on the
DocuSP GUI.
NOTE: Only 300 dpi mode is supported for MICR printing.

Using VIPP
To specify a job as a VIPP job, a start string is required. The
required start string can be automatically added using DocuSP
functionality. This can be completed using the Command Line
Client, Queue Manager, and Job Properties.
To implement the VIPP Start feature, perform the following:
1. Copy the VIPP startup file into /var/spool/XRXnps/vipp and
then restart DocuSP. The file must exist in this directory and
cannot be changed. However, you can set a symbolic link to
other locations.
NOTE: The startup file must end with a lowercase .ini extension.
2. In Queue Manager, create a print queue named VIPP.
Change the default document format from ASCII to
PostScript. If this is not done, all VIPP jobs will be run as
ASCII unless the data file begins with “%!”.
3. Select the PDF/PostScript tab, and select [Start File]. Browse
to the startup file and select this file.
The CACHE command stores a form across a single VIPP job so
only the first instance is a normal RIP. After the first RIP, the
form is called in the job and it is retrieved from hard disk in a
format natively understood by the IOT. VIPP CASHE is available
for color products only.
Paper Trays
For the DocuPrint 90 only, when running a job requiring more
than one color, size, or weight of paper, use the trays in a Tray 1/
Tray 3 and then Tray 2/Tray 4 sequence for optimal speed. For
example, Tray 1 would contain 8 1/2 x11 inch white paper, and
Tray 3 would have 8 1/2 x 11 inch yellow paper for a job. Using
Tray 1/Tray 2 or Tray 3/Tray 4 combinations will slow the
process.

6. Finishing
The following section contains information about how to use
subset finishing and mixed stacking on a printing job.
The finishing information below does not apply to Continuous
Feed (CF) systems. For CF systems, the finishing configuration
is defined at the CF (STAMPA) Controller. CF imposition files are
used to impose documents for printing in conjunction with
specific CF finishing configurations.
Subset Finishing
Subset finishing is the capability to use different types of finishing
(or no finishing) within the same job. The ability to finish subsets
independently is a critical feature for many variable data
applications
This product allows more than one type of finishing within a
single PostScript job. The supported finishing options and the
output locations that can be used vary depending upon the
printer type. The finishing options and delivery locations are the
following:
DocuTech 61xx:
• Portrait Stitch
• Landscape Stitch
• Dual Stitch
• Right Portrait Stitch
• Right Landscape Stitch
• Right Dual Stitch
• Bind
• Right Bind
NOTE: The DT 61xx printers allow Short Edge Feed (SEF) only
in paper tray 3, 4, and 5. The short edges of the stocks range
from approximately 10 inches to 14 inches (254mm to 300mm).

Finishing
System Guide
Creating jobs to use subset finishing
It is important that jobs intended to be printed using subset
finishing be enabled with the following:
• PostScript code (using the “setpagedevice” operator)
• Variable Data Intelligent PostScript PrintWare (VIPP) version
2.0 or later.
NOTE: The Xerox Production Print Services (XPPS) client
software does not support subset finishing at this time.
Subset finishing can also be performed at the DigiPath
workstation through the Document Scan and Make Ready
application.
Subset Offset (Page Level Jog)
The printer has the ability to offset on a page level. This support
allows VIPP to be utilized for offset type applications. This ability
allows jobs to be sent as one larger file with page level offset
commands.
The term “Jog” is used to initiate an offset behavior.
• setpagedevice jog 0 (The offset command is “OFF”)
• setpagedevice jog 3 (The offset command is “ON”)
A job with a multiple copy count with a “jog 3” should force
offsets between each distinct set. A job with a copy count of 1
can contain “jog 0” or “jog 3” on a page by page basis. The
system will alternate offsets between each alternating jog 3 and
jog 0 command.
The following information should be considered when using the
“Jog” command:
• The first jog command on a page will be honored and all
others will be ignored.
• Multiple cases of jog 3 without the corresponding job 0’s will
be ignored.
• The Printer Manager’s setting of offset “ON” or “OFF” should
not impact the action of the PDL level jog commands. For
example, if the Printer Manager’s offset is set to “OFF” and a
job has a jog 3, then the sets should be offset from one
another.

System Guide
Finishing
• The DT/DP 75/90 allows subset offsets to the top tray.
However, the 61xx is not mechanically capable of jogging to
the top tray.
PCL Offset/Separator/Subset Finishing command
The use of the PCL separator command, <ESC>&l1T, in
combination with DocuSP queue defaults enables subset
finishing for PCL jobs. The PCL separator command defines
offset segments of a job. PCL does not commonly support
finishing; however, the use of the PCL separator command
allows offset segments of a job to be finished based on the
finishing default set on the queue. For example, if the queue
default is portrait stitch, all segments of a job where the PCL
separator command has been used will be stitched.
The placement guidelines are as follows:
• Current Page Offset: If the current page is to be offset from
the previous page, then the PCL separator command must
be placed on the current page before any image data.
Placement should be within the job/page control section or
before.
• Next Page Offset: If the next page in the document is to be
offset from the current page, the PCL separator command
must be placed at the end of the current page after any
image items.
Access the Offset stacking switch by opening Printer Manager
and selecting the Stacking tab and then select [Offset Stacking].
To enable offset stacking for collated or uncollated jobs, select
the enable checkbox. Both buttons are located under the
collated stacking and uncollated stacking sections.
The following information should be considered when using the
PCL separator command:
• The offset switch in Printer Manager in the DocuSP software
must be set to ON. If the offset switch is set to OFF and a job
with the PCL separator command is received, the sets will not
offset when the job is printed.
• Multiple uses of the PCL separator command within a job will
be honored.
• Multiple uses of the PCL separator command on a page will
be ignored.

System Guide
• All finishing limitations and restrictions at the printer will apply
to a subset segment.
PCL Paper Source Command
Use the PCL Paper Source command <esc & 1 # H> to program
a PCL print job to use a specific paper. The PCL decomposer on
the DocuSP Controller reads the paper source command and,
using the PCL Paper Sources option in the Queue Properties,
maps the command to the appropriate paper. The number code
corresponds to the following PCL Paper Source programmed in
Queue Properties.
To program the PCL Paper Source, use the following guidelines:
• Standard: <ESC>&11H
• Manual Paper Feed: <ESC>&13H
• Manual Envelope Feed: <ESC>&13H
• Lower: <ESC>&14H
• Large Capacity: <ESC>&15H
• Envelope Feed: <ESC>&16H
Mixed Stacking
Mixed stacking allows all completed jobs with different finishing
to accumulate in the stacker until it is full or until the operator
empties it.
The types of finishing that can be mixed include stitching,
binding, and unfinished. The mixed stack can also include
banner pages. The stacker can hold between 12 and 18
subsets of different types of finishing in the stacker before
unloading.
Mixed stacking is enabled upon installation but can be disabled if
you choose to do so. If you wish to have it enabled at a later
date, a Xerox Service Representative must assist you.

7. Fonts
The following information explains how to use and choose fonts
for a job. It also covers various resident and non-resident fonts
and their availability.
How to choose fonts
Although document source files can specify almost any image on
a printed page, images that contain letters, numbers,
punctuation, and symbols are common enough to require a
special mechanism for dealing with them, similar to movable
type. This mechanism is the font. The DocuSP controller
supports Adobe PostScript Type 1 and Type 3 fonts, PCL
scalable and bitmap fonts, and TrueType fonts.
Fonts
The most important thing to remember is that the font used to
create a document must also be available to the DocuSP
controller.
NOTE: DocuSP supports the euro character. Most font families
include the euro character.
At the DocuSP controller, a font can exist in three forms:
Resident fonts A resident font is an internal font that is permanently stored on
the DocuSP controller and is always available.
Soft fonts
Soft, or optional, fonts are a typeface that are loaded as needed
at the DocuSP controller. This allows the DocuSP controller to be
customized with special fonts, such as logos, or other special
font applications.
Common Controller

Fonts
System Guide
Downloaded font When a font is downloaded with a document, all the font
requirements are embedded in the actual source file. If this font
is not available at the DocuSP controller, the downloaded
information is used to process and print the document. Although
it is useful, it also creates a much larger file size.
Font download option
Downloading Commercial Fonts from the Network allows fonts to
be downloaded to the DocuSP Controller from both Mac or PC
platforms. Supported application programs for font downloading
are as follows: PC Platform - Adobe Type On Call; Apple
Macintosh Platform - Adobe OCF, Marisawa, and Font Works
However, the font download on a queue is designed specifically
for the Appletalk gateway and is usually associated with
Japanese (double-byte) or Chinese type font sets. Applications
in the FujiXerox marketplace utilize the Appletalk two-way
protocol to poll the printer and then download the massive
character sets needed in these markets. In the U.S.
marketplace the typical font loading mechanism is via hard drive
via Administration. The use of English fonts via specific
applications (e.g, Adobe has some) via AppleTalk is not
precluded but is certainly not the norm nor the target
marketplace.
Resident Fonts
The DocuSP controller comes with a wide variety of fonts that
are available when creating a document.
NOTE: If you are unsure of the availability of a font, always
consult with your print organization management to determine
which fonts are currently loaded on the DocuSP controller.
PostScript Resident Fonts
The PostScript Type 1 typeface families listed in Table 7–1 are
scalable, which means that all point sizes are supported, even
intermediate point sizes. These include the typefaces that make
up the LaserWriter IINTX basic font set, plus additional Type 1
fonts supplied by Xerox.

Non Resident Fonts
There may be many fonts available in your application that are
not resident at the DocuSP controller. There are two options for
using non-resident fonts to create a document:
• Downloaded fonts

Common Controller
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
System Guide
Fonts
If you expect to create a document using fonts that are
available on your workstation but not available at the DocuSP
controller, your application may automatically download the
font when the job is sent to the printer. Fonts downloaded in
this manner are considered "temporary" and are deleted from
the DocuSP controller as soon as the job is printed.
NOTE: Refer to your application documentation for more
information on downloading fonts in your document.
If you are using a font in your application that has the same
name as a resident font but is a different version, it must be
downloaded with the job. The DocuSP controller will use the
downloaded font rather than the resident font.
NOTE: Marking a font for "permanent" downloading in your
application is not supported.
• Optional or soft fonts
Downloading fonts each time you print will increase the size
of the file and result in a longer transmission time. If your print
jobs regularly require a font that is not a resident font, you
may request to have it installed as an optional font at the
DocuSP controller. Your printing organization's font policy
should give you the specific information you need to request
a special font.
Font substitution
A document may require a font that is not available at the
DocuSP controller and has not been downloaded with the source
file. When the requested font is not available, font substitution
will take place.
PostScript fonts
A single default font, set by the System Administrator in the
DocuSP software, will be substituted for any font requirements
that cannot be met at the DocuSP controller. A message will be
printed to confirm that a substitution has taken place.

PCL 5e fonts
Another type of substitution occurs for PCL fonts. If a requested
PCL font is not available, the DocuSP controller will determine
which available font best matches the requested one and
perform the substitution. Any PCL stream that does not have any
fonts specified in the file will have the default font programmed in
the “PCL font” section for the corresponding queue in Queue

accounting data when the database reaches 80% full. This will
protect data from being overwritten when the log previously ran
out of space. This option is performed automatically and the
accounting information is saved in a designated directory. The
default file directory where the information is saved is: /export/
home/xrusr/accountingexportfiles.
NOTE: When purging, the oldest entry is purged first.
Accounting exported values
The Accounting feature tracks all jobs that have been processed
and printed, enabling your site to charge for use of the Xerox
printing system.
There are four different versions supported for exporting the
customer accounting log: Version 2, Version 3, Version 3.1 and
Version 4.
• Version 2: This is the most common version that is supported
for the DocuSP printing system. If this version is selected to
be exported, it will not include any new accounting entries.

• Version 3: This version will export all entries that are new
and old and zero and non-zero values. Additionally, entries
will be exported that are not viewable on the GUI. These
entries are: Channel Idle Time, Initial JDL, Initial JDE, DJDE
Records Read, and Lines Printed.
• Version 3.1: This version will export all entries that are new
and old and zero and non-zero values. This version is similar
and includes the same exported values as Version 3. Version
3.1 also includes the following fields:
– Interrupt Status: Options are Interrupt and Interrupted.
– Job Source: Indicates the Gateway through which the job
was submitted.
– RIP Interrupt Time: This value displays how long the job
was suspended in the ripping status if the job was
interrupted by a “Print Now” job.
• Version 4.0: This version is similar and includes all the same
values as Version 3.1. However, it also includes the exported
value for Trapping. The number displayed will be the total
number of pages trapped within a job.
Accounting file fields
The following information will help you identify accounting fields
when viewing the accounting and billing information.
Job ID System assigned ID number. When a job is sent to be printed or
saved, it is given a Job ID that the system uses to track the jobs.
Job IDs are generated sequentially, however, the numbers can
be reset.
Container ID System assigned ID number. The Container ID always has the
same number as the Job ID.
Report ID Report ID for the job.
Host Job Number Host supplied job number, as extracted from the data stream.

• Inoperable system: The inoperable system has experienced
an unrecoverable software error due to a job or operator
action.
• Job flow: Jobs sent from the client are not received at a
printer queue.
• Job integrity: The output from the printer is not as expected,
such as missing pages, missing data, incorrect page
orientation, incorrectly ordered sets, or job attribute
inconsistencies.
• PDL problem isolation: Questions that a System
Administrator may ask the job submitters when they are
experiencing problems with printing.
• Process problems: A process was followed incorrectly or
unintentionally.
• Productivity and performance: The job takes an excessive
amount of time to complete.
• Save problems: A job was submitted from a client with a
Save destination, but the job is not saved.
Client problems
Client problems are handled differently depending on the client
platform used.
Windows problems
A job is submitted from a Windows client and is not received by
the printer queue.
If the Xerox Document Submission client application does not
run properly or the job cannot be submitted to a queue, perform
the following:
1. The user must exit the Xerox Document Submission and
Windows applications
2. Verify the user is logged on to the appropriate file server.
3. Restart the Xerox Document Submission software at the
client workstation.

Troubleshooting
System Guide
If the Macintosh client cannot view any printer queues from the
Chooser, perform the following:
1. Verify that the AppleTalk network is up and that there is at
least one router on the network.
2. If there is no router on the AppleTalk network, jobs cannot be
submitted through the AppleTalk gateway. When a router
becomes available, reboot the controller to submit jobs
through the AppleTalk gateway.
If there is a router on the Apple Talk network, delete the “/opt/
XRXnps/bin/atports” file at the controller and reboot.
NOTE: You must be logged in as the root user to delete this file.
DigiPath problems
A job is submitted from a DigiPath client and does not print.
If the message, “Warning: cannot open the file xdms/
<filename>.gf/<filename>.tif. Select OK to continue or cancel to
stop the print job.” is displayed, perform the following:
1. Place the queue on hold that the DigiPath jobs are being sent
to. Do this by changing the accept status to “no”.
2. Wait until all jobs have completed printing.
3. Purge the /var/spool/XRXnps/var/spool/data/xdms directory.
GUI problems
If any of the modules of the DocuSP do not function or if you
cannot use Exit to restart the system, perform the following:
• If any of the DocuSP icons disappears or does not respond.
• If the GUI opens with a black blank background and the label
names of the modules do not appear correctly, perform the
following:
1. Determine if the /opt/XRXnps/XRXservui/data/locale/
<locale*>/resources directory exists.
2. Determine if the /opt/XRXnps/XRXservui/data/
ui.mn.config file exists.
3. If the above files do not exist, set the XAPPLRESDIR
environment variable by entering the following:
setenv XAPPLRESDIR/opt/XRXnps/XRXservui/data/
locale/<locale>resources

Print Quality problems
An image quality problem exists if a job has been submitted
successfully, but does not print correctly.
NOTE: If Image Quality parameters are changed, the DocuSP
software must be restarted for the change to take affect.
NOTE: The Image Quality default settings are optimized for the
printer. If changes are made, the factory installed defaults can
be restored by selecting [Defaults]. Selecting [Reset] sets the
Image Quality parameters to the most recently applied setting.
To determine the print quality problem and possibly fix the
problem, perform the following:
1. Retrieve the error page if one was printed.
2. Submit the job to a draft PostScript printer if one is available
to determine if the master is valid.
3. Ensure that the jobs are sent to the correct queue.
4. Ensure that a valid PDL is used.
5. If the problem still exists, recreate the job with a different print
driver and resubmit the job to the printer.
Font problems
A font problem exists when incorrect printed fonts have
character spacing, jagged characters, text running off the page,
or sentences running into each other.
To determine and fix the font problem, perform the following:
1. Determine if the font is being downloaded with the job.
NOTE: If a downloaded font is not found, font substitution
occurs and an error page is printed.

Troubleshooting
System Guide
2. If the font is not being downloaded with the job, determine if
the font is loaded on the server by viewing the Fonts module
of the DocuSP.
3. If jagged characters are seen, determine if there is a scalable
option available for that font and whether the user selected
that option.
4. For incorrect character or text that runs off the page,
determine if the document was created with one driver and
printed with another driver.
5. If you are comparing prints from a proof printer, ensure that
the same PDL file was used to make the prints on both
printers.
6. If small fonts are printing ragged, change the default font
renderer in Print Manager from the “Adobe Type Manager” to
the “Font Solution”.
Inoperable system problems
Determine which partition is full by opening a terminal window
and perform the following:
1. Telnet using another system into the controller and use the
su
1. command to become the root user.
2. At the # prompt, type:sync; sync; halt and press <Enter>.
3. At the ok prompt, type boot
NOTE: Pressing <Stop> and <A> may result in lost information
if a job is currently being received by the system. Jobs would
need to be resent.
Job flow problems
If a job is submitted to a printer but does not print, this is a job
flow problem.
Determine the status of the printer, printer queue and ensure that
the queue is set to release jobs.
Determine which partition is full by opening a terminal
window and entering the following:

System Guide
Troubleshooting
• If the /var/spool/XRXnps/outQ partition is full, go to the
DocuSP GUI. Open [Preferences] and then [Job Policy]. Set
the system to small partitions or large partitions to avoid
saturating the outQ.
• If the /opt partition is full, delete unnecessary files and
compress and move any core files that are in the /opt/
XRXnps/corefiles directory.
• If the /var/spool partition is full, determine the size of the /var/
spool/XRXnps/inQ directory. If a job is larger than half the
size of the directory, delete the job and restart the Xerox
software.
If the job is small, store it on a server and resubmit the job
from the client.
Delete any faulted, ineligible, or held jobs that are no longer
needed. Also, delete any completed jobs in the /opt/XRXnps/
log/errorLogs directory.
• If any other partition is full, free space on the partition by
deleting any unnecessary files.
• If only one job is in the printer queue, cancel the job and
resubmit as smaller files.
If the job is in PostScript, ASCII, or TIFF format and the job
status is “processing”, perform the following:
1. Hold the job.
2. Resubmit the job to a draft PostScript printer to determine if
the master is corrupted. If the job prints without problems,
contact the Customer Support Center.
NOTE: If a job that is known to be without faults has been
submitted and will not print, shut down and restart the DocuSP
software.
If an active job has a status of “printing” or “waiting for the
printer” and will not print and there are no faults or messages
displayed, perform the following:
1. Open the printer door. If a message appears in the faults and
messages frame, then the communication with the printer is
working.
2. Restart the DocuSP software. If the problem still persists,
contact the Customer Support Center.

Job Integrity problems
If the job does not print as expected (missing pages, missing
data, incorrect page orientation, incorrectly ordered sets, job
attribute inconsistencies), perform the following:
1. Check the job properties to ensure proper programming.
2. Check for any queue override attributes that may be
conflicting with the job programming.
3. If the job is PCL or PostScript, check for job ticket information
that may have created a problem with the job. Make changes
and resubmit the job.
PDL problems
If a problem exists with a PDL job, the System Administrator can
ask the job submitter specific questions to identify the problem.
Possible questions that may help are the following:
• What printer driver was used to create the file?
• What application was used to create the file?
• Do all applications create this file format?
• Have you tried to use a different printer driver? If not, do so
to conclude if it also creates problems.
• Has the file printed previously on a different printer?
• Was the file recreated and resubmitted?
• Have you checked to see if the destination queue is
accepting files? Were the resources adequate?
• Did this file or a similar file print on a previously installed
version of the system software?
PostScript problems
The following questions may be helpful to ask when trying to
isolate a PostScript problem:
• What printer driver was used to create the file?
• What client/application was used to create the file?
• Was the file recreated and resubmitted with a different driver?
What was the result?
• Is there a printed PostScript error page, and what errors were
listed?

• Will the job print on any other PostScript printers?
• Does the PostScript file distill properly using Acrobat
Distiller?
TIFF problems
The following questions may be helpful to ask when trying to
isolate a TIFF problem:
• Is the file a true TIFF, or is it a TIFF wrapped in a PostScript
wrapper?
• Did the PostScript error page list the error as “Decomposition
Task Failed” to indicate that the tags and compression
formats of this file are not supported?
• What type of client and application were used to submit the
file?
• Can the TIFF image be viewed using any software package?
• Does the error page list errors such as “image mask”,
“Xeroximage” or “image” to indicate that the FTP
transmission of the file has corrupted the TIFF image data?
• If the file has an orientation problem, has an attempt been
made to change the orientation using the Xerox Client
Software print command orientation switch?
• What compression format was used to compress the file?
• What dots per inch (dpi) resolution was used or intended for
the file?
PDF problems
The following questions may be helpful to ask when trying to
isolate a PDF problem:
• Was the PDF created from the original PostScript using the
latest version of Adobe’s PDF Distiller?
• Does the original PostScript file print correctly?
• Will all of the pages of the job open with Adobe Acrobat?
• What application and/or PDF software created the PDF file?

Productivity and performance problems
If a job takes longer to process than anticipated and a
performance problem is suspected, perform the following to
check the system:
1. Check the job status in the Job Manager window.
2. If the job status is Hold, select [Release] to process the job.
3. If the job is Ripping, check the performance meter. If the CPU
activity is high, the decomposer is working. If this is not true,
restart the DocuSP software.
4. Submit the job to a draft printer to determine if the master is
valid.
5. Check the time on the decomposer that is working on the job.
For example, if the job is a PostScript job, type the following
in a Terminal Window:
ps -ae|grep ps_cdf
The system will return a time value along with the process ID
of the PostScript decomposers that are running. Wait, then
repeat the command. If the time displayed is increasing, then
the job is Ripping.
For a PCL job, type:
ps -ae|grep pcl_cdf

Configuring XJDC/Unix
The configuration file, CONFIG.TXT found in the directory /opt/
XRXnps/bin/, contains default parameters for the invocation of
XJDC. The text file can be edited using any simple text editor.
The first line of the configuration file must not be edited; it
contains XJDC version information. Each subsequent line
contains a single option; any text following the first word, and any
invalid options, are ignored. Options may be repeated or
contradicted on following lines; the last option specified overrides
previous options. The following sample configuration file is
provided:
XJDC VM10 PDL Compiler

NODISPLAY
PRINT
TRUNCATE
LABEL
COMPILE
SINGLEBYTE
VM10
PAPERSIZE=USLETTER
DATE=US
PAGINATE=60
OUTPATH =/opt/XRXnps/resources/lcds
XJDC Hints and Tips
• If the config file needs to be changed, modify the /opt/
XRXnps/XRXXJDC/data/CONFIG.TXT file. Otherwise, the
default setting in the CONFIG.TXT file will take effect.
• An example for the syntax /opt/XRXnps/bin/XJDC filename
would be: /opt/XRXnps/bin/XJDC /home/XDJCtest/
BASIC.JSL where the filename is represented by /home/
XJDCtest/BASIC.JSL
• The output files are stored under the OUTPATH directory
which is specified in either /opt/XRXnps/bin/CONFIG.TXT file
or command line. For example, if OUTPATH is /opt/XRXnps/
temp/, then all the output files are put in the directory of /opt/
XRXnps/temp.

• JSL source files can be edited using the textedit command or
UNIX vi command. The textedit utility is available with the sun
operating system. To invoke the editor, bring up a Terminal
window and type textedit. For example, open a terminal shell
and on the command line, type: textedit BASIC.JSL or vi
BASIC.JSL
• During the XJDC compilation, if an error is encountered, the
compiler will print the error report to the printer. Ensure the
first available queue is a PostScript queue.
Output files
Upon compilation of a JSL source file, the XJDC generates the
following:
• JSL source listing file
<filename>.lst or <filename>.LST
The filename is the name of the JSL file, excluding path
information. The case of the file extension corresponds with
the case of the file extension of the JSL source file.
• Resource listing file
<filename>.rsc or <filename>.RSC
The filename is the name of the JSL file, excluding path
information. The case of the file extension corresponds with
the case of the file extension of the JSL source file.
• Zero or more PDL object files of types
.JDL .CME .IDR .LIB .PDE .STK .TST
All filenames are in upper case and are written to the
directory <outpath>/VM10 where outpath is the output path
specified. Files are overwritten if the REPLACE option is
selected; otherwise they are renamed to $xx where xx is the
first two characters of the file type.
• a log file containing messages displayed to the screen
XJDC.LOG
The log file is written to the directory in which XJDC/Unix is
installed and is appended at each invocation of XJDC.

General Comments
The time required to process a job can depend on various
influences. The time required to process a job is made up of 4
components:
• Time for a client workstation to generate the Page
Description Language (PDL, i.e. PostScript, HP-PCL, TIFF,
etc.).
• Time to transfer the job PDL across the net and be marked as
received by the DocuSP.
• Time required to RIP the PDL to produce the bit maps that
the print engine can use.
• Time required to write the RIPped bit maps to the print engine
and generate paper.
Time used to generate the PDL
This component is strongly influenced by the speed of the client
workstation, the print driver being used by the application, and
the complexity of the pages to be printed.
Time used to transfer PDL
This component is influenced by the speed of the network
connection between the client workstation and the DocuSP. It is
also impacted by the number of workstations on the network, by
the configuration of the net (i.e. number and speed of the
gateways and routers and by the number of simultaneous
network connections that the DocuSP has to manage). Finally it
is impacted by the complexity of the pages being printed (i.e. the
size of the PDL files being transferred).
Time required to RIP PDL
This component is influenced by the efficiency of the PDL to be
RIPped, the complexity of the pages being RIPped, the number
and resolution of images included, and the media/color space
transforms being performed on the data before imaging/printing.

Hints and Tips
Time required to print PDL
This component is influenced by the media being used and the
paper path through the printer. Whether the printing is face up or
down, simplex or duplex, all one size or a mix of sizes to be
drawn from different trays all make a difference. In addition, the
complexity of the pages and therefore the number of Image
Quality Adjustments that the print engine makes during a job
also impact the final performance of the printer as it generates
paper.
Job submission hints
Number of images
The number and resolution of the images that are embedded
within a job will be a big driver of the PDL size and therefore PDL
generation time, data transfer, spool and RIP performance.
Minimizing the number and/or resolution of embedded images
will improve performance.
Ethernet
To keep the network from becoming over loaded with jobs when
several clients are simultaneously submitting and printing, it is
important to have a fairly fast ethernet (100BaseT or faster).
Gateways
If a user has all of the DocuSP gateways installed and active,
performance will be less than expected because the work
required to monitor each added gateway and potential client
connection will consume a small portion of the available CPU
time. If this is a problem, you may wish to remove gateways not
being used (i.e. lpr, IPP, SNMP, HTTP, Novell, Appletalk or Token
Ring), keeping only those that are needed.

Hints and Tips
System Guide
Job submission order
Job submission order can impact performance. It is suggested
that a job with many pages to be RIPped and a large number of
copies should be submitted at the end of the day if possible. With
the printer paused, the job can then RIP over night. The job will
then start printing the beginning of the next day and while it is
printing, the DocuSP can process a complex/difficult job that
takes a long time to RIP. As long as the previous job is still
printing when the next job finishes RIPping, the DocuSP can RIP
still another job to get even further ahead. In this way, the print
engine itself will never be idle waiting for a hard job to finish RIP.
Job RIP Hints
If using the default media/color settings that are pre-loaded on
the controller, the DocuSP can use built in color space
transformations to accelerate RIP performance. If you do any of
the following, the color space transformation will probably take
more time and the RIP will be slower:
• Define own media
• Include input or output ICC color profiles in the PDL file
• Change any of the system color settings (i.e. saturation,
lightness, color adjustments for C,M,Y or K, emulation mode,
etc.)
NOTE: In general, RGB and LAB color space transformations
are slower than CMYK transformations. If the input images of a
job can be created in CMYK color space then the DocuSP will be
able to process the job more efficiently.
Variable data
Variable data job construction is also an important driver of RIP
performance. Jobs that are constructed with a single underlay or
background plane and a small number of variable text or image
overlays will run very efficiently. If the same job is constructed
with the underlay constructed from several distinct objects which
the DocuSP is asked to compose on the fly, then the job will not
be able to take advantage of the DocuSP variable data
performance enhancement. In that case, the job may RIP
significantly shower than the more efficiently constructed job.
10-4
Common Controller

System Guide
Hints and Tips
For cases where the background/underlay of the variable data
job is composed of 2 or 3 relatively static objects, it is suggested
to have the application create each static combination of objects
as a different underlay. This will be more efficient than having the
DocuSP perform the composition. When creating variable
objects to be overlaid on fixed underlays or backgrounds, it is
also important to ensure that the objects are properly cropped or
bounded and at the lowest acceptable resolution. The DocuSP
can compose 2 variable data objects of 2 inches by 2 inches and
300 dots/inch resolution about 10-20 times faster than it could if
the same objects were 600 dpi and 8.5x11 inches.
Image Quality
Generally the image quality of a base printing system will be
above average and the Image Quality (IQ) enhancements filters
provided within DocuSP will be unnecessary. If you wish to
improve output IQ, the DocuSP provides separate controls for
enabling Anti Aliasing, Trapping, and Intelligent Black Overprint.
Disabling all 3 of these IQ filters will improve performance. If you
are printing only a small number of copies, the expected
increase in RIP time will be visible as a significant fraction of the
total job processing time. When printing documents with a large
a number of copies, then the majority of the processing time will
be devoted to the actual printing and the RIP performance
decrease will be less visible (a smaller fraction of the total job
time). You should examine the DocuSP printed output with the
IQ enhancing filters enabled and disabled and decide whether
the IQ improvement is worth the performance drop for this
particular job scenario.
On DC 2045/2060/6060 there are certain scenarios where the
printer will cycle down and do an Image Quality (IQ) adjustment.
The % area coverage of the page (i.e. amount of image/text
written on the page) also effects the number of IQ Adjustments
that the printer will make. A standard letter size page (8.5x11
inches) is about 21.6x27.9 cm or about 603.5 square cm. If the
text and images written to a page cover more than about 250
square cm (about 40% of the page), then the print engine will
automatically generate IQ Adjustments. If you find that a
particular document seems to take a long time to print because
of IQ adjustments, improve performance by simplifying the page.
For example, the text and images on the page might be
downsized to cover less than 40% of the viewable area of the
paper and the performance may improve because the printer
does fewer IQ Adjustments.

Hints and Tips
System Guide
The DC 2045/2060/6060 print engine will also perform IQ
adjustments if a difficult job is being processed and RIP falls
behind the print output. If this occurs, the print engine will cycle
down for a few seconds while the RIP catches up and then it will
perform an IQ adjustment which will take anywhere from 5-95
seconds. During the IQ adjustment, the printer will not print
anything. However, the RIP will continue and be slightly ahead.
As soon as the printer finishes the IQ adjustment it will print all of
the RIPped pages and catch up with the printer.
Job Printing Hints
The DC 6060 print engine cycles down on certain operations
such as on tray/bank switches or between jobs. Each cycle may
take 10-40 seconds to complete before the print engine is ready
to print again. To avoid unnecessary print engine cycling, you
can perform the following:
• Disable finishing, slip-sheets and offset stacking.
• Disable banner sheets when making multiple copies of a job.
• Avoid media tray switches by constructing the job to use only
a single size, color, and weight of paper and by ensuring
before running a job that the currently active tray has enough
media loaded to print the entire job.
Skipped Pitches
To stop the cycle of skipped pitches and cycle the print engine
down, perform one of the following to improve the overall job
performance:
1. Process the job in N-1 order rather than 1-N order. This will
force the job to be completely ripped before the print engine
is started up. When the print engine starts it will consume
pages at 60 ppm until all pages are printed.

System Guide
Hints and Tips
2. The user could pause the printer (the green button on the
DocuSP GUI) until a large number of pages in the job have
been RIPped. If the user then resumes the printer at the
right time (some time before the whole job is RIPped), the
print engine will print all of the queued pages and the
controller will simultaneously finish ripping the remainder of
the job. To do this successfully, the user will need to watch
and compute the rate that DocuSP is ripping at. If you know
how many pages are in the job, then knowing that the printer
will generate paper at 60 ppm, you can compute how far from
the end of the job to release the printer so that RIP and print
finish at the same time.
