System overview  
The Xerox DocuPrint IPS printer series are cut-sheet, duplex, high-  
speed printers that are fully compatible with the IBM Advanced  
Function Presentation (AFP) architecture. They accept an IPDS data  
stream from any Print Services Facility (PSF) eligible platform,  
emulating an IBM IPDS Group 3 page printer with the Advanced  
Function Image and Graphics (AFIG) option.  
The IPS printer series is a combination of proven Xerox print engines  
matched with a high-performance RISC-based controller. Each  
system consists of a Sun workstation controller and the printer,  
sometimes referred to as the Image Output Terminal (IOT).  
A full-color graphical user interface on the Sun workstation enables  
interaction with the IPS.  
Host environments  
The IPS can print in the following PSF environments:  
•
•
•
•
•
•
MVS  
VM (channel-attached only)  
VSE (channel-attached only)  
OS/2  
OS/400 (with TCP/IP only)  
AIX  
Note: Although PSF/VSE does not support TCP/IP directly, a  
printing system with PSF/2, PSF/6000, or InfoPrint Manager can  
attach to a PSF/VSE system and the PSF/2, PSF/6000, or InfoPrint  
Manager can furnish the TCP/IP support for the IPS printer.  
There is no minimum host operating system software level required  
to support IPS. The minimum PSF levels needed to support the IPS  
are:  
•
•
•
•
•
•
PSF/MVS: V2.2  
PSF/VM: V2.1  
PSF/VSE: V2.2  
PSF/400: V3.2  
PSF/6000: V2.1  
PSF/2: V2.0

PRODUCT OVERVIEW  
Host connectivity options  
The DocuPrint IPS can be set up to receive data from the IBM host  
in one of two ways:  
•
Through a bus and tag channel connection.  
Note: If your system will be channel-attached, the printer  
controller requires an additional component called a Host  
Channel Unit (HCU), which interfaces between the IBM host and  
the IPS controller.  
•
Through a Token Ring or Ethernet interface using TCP/IP (the  
HCU is not used).  
Note: A transmission rate of at least 16 megabits per second  
should be used with a Token Ring interface on the IPS. (Overall  
performance depends on network traffic and job density.)  
•
The software supports Token Ring over TCP/IP, and  
Ethernet over TCP/IP, with the exception of VM and VSE  
platforms.  
•
Of the other platforms that support TCP/IP, only the RS/  
6000 supports 100 Mb Ethernet connectivity.

4635 and 4635 MICR IPS: Up to 4 million pages  
180 and 180 MICR IPS: Up to 6 million pages  
System components  
The IPS systems consist of the following major components:  
•
Printer controller — The printer controller (also called the  
system controller) accepts IPDS data (plus PostScript and PCL  
data with the Dual Mode option) from the host, processes the  
data, and sends the data to the printer engine using the IPS  
operating system. The controller provides the printer with print  
data and commands, and receives status information from the  
printer.  
•
Printer — The printer, also called the Image Output Terminal  
(IOT), accepts formatted pages of data from the printer  
controller and performs the imaging and printing of documents.  
The printer also provides paper stacking, collating, and optional  
finishing capabilities you enable using the IPS application  
software accessed through the graphical user interface.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW  
System features  
The 96/4635/180 IPS provides numerous features that can be  
enabled or configured using the graphical user interface on the  
printer controller.  
•
Multiple input trays — Multiple feeder trays can be configured  
to feed paper for jobs in the most effective manner. For  
example, the trays can provide nonstop printing of a complex  
job that requires many paper stocks, or only a few stocks, by  
using the trays’ continuous loading capability. A different input  
tray can also be selected for each copy of a specific page in a  
print job, for example, to provide different paper colors for  
specific pages.  
—
96 IPS: Three addressable input trays are standard with  
the system, and one additional tray is available as an  
option.  
—
4635 and 180 IPS: Four addressable input trays are  
standard with the system, and two additional trays are  
available as options.  
Feeder tray capacities, based on 20-pound or 80 gsm (grams  
per square meter) bond, are:  
—
—
—
—
Tray 1: 1,100 sheets  
Tray 2: 600 sheets  
Trays 3 and 4: 2,600 sheets  
Optional trays (5 and 6): 2,600 sheets each.  
•
Roll feeder support — The 96, 4635, and 180 IPS can each  
accommodate a third-party roll feeder as an input tray. (Refer to  
your local Xerox sales representative for information on third-  
party roll feeders.)  
—
The 96 and 4635 IPS have an optional configuration in  
which the roll feeder interfaces with the last feeder/stacker  
module. With this configuration, the 4635 IPS may have up  
to six feeder trays, with the sixth being the roll feeder. The  
96 IPS may have up to five input trays, with the roll feeder  
as the fifth.  
Note: To be able to use this roll feeder option on the  
96/4635 IPS, you must have the Input Enablement kit  
installed. (Refer to the “Printer components and options”  
chapter of this guide.)  
—
The roll feeder option for the 180 IPS is installed in the  
inverter feeder/stacker module, replacing the feeder tray. It  
does not require the Input Enablement kit or DFA software.  
The maximum number of feeder/stacker modules  
supported for this configuration is four, including the  
inverter module with the roll feeder. With the two processor  
feeder trays, this makes a total of six input trays possible.  
•
Advanced paper handling — The 96/4635/180 IPS can  
handle paper stock ranging in size from 8 by 10 inches / 203 by  
254 mm to 14 by 17 inches / 356 by 432 mm, including sizes A3  
and A4.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW  
The DP96, DP4635 and DP180 IPS can also print on papers as  
small as 7 by 10 inches / 178 by 254 mm, with the optional 7 by  
10-inch kit. They process paper weights from 16-pound / 60  
gsm to 110-pound / 200 gsm.  
Jobs also can be printed on label stock, transparencies,  
precollated stock, tab stock, carbonless paper, and other  
specialized stocks. The printer engine monitors the print job so  
that, should a paper jam occur, the job resumes on the correct  
page, at the correct tab, using the same color paper, etc.,  
providing complete document integrity.  
•
Mixes plex feature — The 96/4635/180 IPS can switch from  
duplex to simplex printing, and vice versa, without cycling down  
the printer. The IPS system starts the first job in the plex mode  
of the first sheet received. If the mode is duplex and a  
subsequent sheet received is simplex, blank backs are used.  
This continues until the consecutive simplex threshold is  
reached. Once reached, the system starts printing in simplex,  
after clearing the paper path of all duplex sheets. When the next  
duplex page is received, the system starts printing in duplex,  
without shutting down. The process starts over, printing simplex  
pages in duplex mode using blank backs, until the consecutive  
simplex threshold is reached.  
•
600 dpi resolution — The 96, 4635, and 180 IPS all print at  
high resolution. The printers can receive data at 240 or 300 dpi  
(dots per inch) and full-page IOCA images at 600 dpi. All 240 or  
300 dpi data is then interpolated to 600 dpi for higher print  
quality.  
The following table shows how data streams of different  
resolutions are interpolated.

* Full-page IOCA images only  
**Note: This is an option on the 180 IPS, requiring a special board to be installed by your service  
representative. Without this board, 240 dpi data is converted to 600 dpi by the controller.  
For the 96/4635/180 IPS and the 96/4635/180 MICR IPS  
systems it is recommended that all fonts and other resources  
that are at 240 dpi be converted to 300 dpi before printing,  
rather than leaving the conversion for the controller to do. This  
ensures better print quality.  
Caution: The 96/4635/180 IPS must have the same font  
resolution specified as the host input data stream (refer to the  
Guide to Configuring and Managing the System for instructions  
on specifying the input resolution). Conflicts between the input  
font resolution and the IPS specification could result in inability  
to print the job, or in missing variable data in the output.

Note: This capacity does not apply to 11 by 17-inch and A3  
papers. Because of the additional weight these large sheets add  
to the bins, each bin can hold only up to 1500 sheets of A3 or 11  
by 17-inch papers.  
—
96 IPS: One output bin is standard for the system, with one  
additional bin available as an option (providing up to two  
bins total).  
—
4635 and 180 IPS: Two output bins are standard, with up  
to two additional bins available as options (providing up to  
four bins total).  
•
Bypass transport option — The bypass transport enables  
sheets to pass through the printer output module to a third-  
party finishing device. With such devices, you can add to your  
96/4635/180 IPS such finishing capabilities as saddle-stitching,  
binding, trimming, etc. The bypass transport is installed at the  
right (as you face the printer) of the last feeder/stacker module  
on your system. The bypass transport cannot be installed on  
systems with more than three feeder/stacker modules. (For  
more information on the bypass transport, refer to the “Printer  
components and options” chapter of this guide.)  
NPS/IPS Dual Mode  
The Xerox DocuPrint Dual Mode option enables both DocuPrint IPS  
and NPS systems to coexist on the same printer controller (Sun  
workstation). This allows the DocuPrint system to receive data  
streams supported by NPS and IPS, including IPDS, PostScript  
Levels 1 and 2, HP PCL5c, HP PCL5e, and ASCII.  
Either of the following two types of configurations may be used:  
•
•
The same Token Ring or Ethernet connection can be used for  
both IPDS (IPS) and Postscript/PCL (NPS).  
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.  
The customer may switch from one mode to the other. When your  
system is operating in IPS mode, it can accept PostScript and PCL  
data streams in the background; however, you can print these jobs  
only when the system is in NPS mode. When in NPS mode, the  
system cannot accept IPDS data streams in the background; you can  
print them only when the system is in IPS mode.  
Refer to the Xerox DocuPrint IPS/NPS Dual Mode Switching  
Instructions and other Xerox DocuPrint IPS documentation for more  
information.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW  
MICR printing features  
The DocuPrint 96 MICR, 4635 MICR, and 180 MICR IPS produce a  
Magnetic Ink Character Recognition (MICR) line on negotiable and  
turnaround documents such as checks and bills. The MICR printing  
systems print documents using magnetic ink and special fonts to  
create machine readable information that allows for quick document  
processing.  
In general, MICR is used to print accounting and routing information  
on blank checks and other negotiable documents. The magnetic  
encoding capabilities can be used for any printed output.  
The following illustrates a check printed with a MICR line in U.S.  
format. The entire MICR line, which consists of numbers and  
characters (called symbols), is printed using magnetic ink.  
Figure 1-3. Example of a check printed with MICR line (U. S.)  
The 96 MICR, 4635 MICR, and 180 MICR IPS meet ABA standards  
and ANSI and ISO specifications for automatic check handling. They  
print the variable data and the MICR line at the same time. This  
single-pass printing capability reduces processing time and costs.  
Unsupported features  
The DocuPrint 96 MICR, 4635 MICR, and 180 MICR IPS do not  
support the security and audit feature or bar code reading. In  
addition, although the Line Thickening selection and the Virtual  
Printer Imaging parameters are available when you use MICR, it is  
not recommended that you use these features when printing MICR  
documents as they corrupt the MICR line.  
In general, all print quality adjustments and enhancement settings  
should be set at the nominal settings when printing MICR output.

Sixth Sense  
Sixth Sense is a unique suite of diagnostic tools that allows Xerox  
customer service engineers, analysts, and consultants to serve  
customers more effectively.  
Sixth Sense is intended to automate and expedite the range of  
service-related support functions. Sixth Sense is a tool that enables  
Xerox to provide benchmark service support. Xerox customers  
benefit from the ability to bring broader support to focus more quickly.  
For example, Sixth Sense can allow the Service Representative to  
repeatedly “preview” the condition of the system prior to an actual  
site visit. This may provide the ability to determine the correct part or  
piece of information to have on hand when the site visit is made.  
Sixth Sense is a no charge feature available to customers through  
Xerox Service. The customer need only provide an analog phone line  
for use by the Sixth Sense modem connection. For those customers  
unable to dedicate a phone line to the Sixth Sense connection, three  
and five port phone share devices are available for purchase. (Refer  
to your local Xerox sales representative for further information.)  
To take advantage of Sixth Sense, the customer needs to:  
•
•
•
•
Request Sixth Sense enablement through Xerox Service  
Provide an analog phone line  
Provide a 120V outlet in which to plug a modem  
If necessary, purchase an optional phone share device.  
More information about Sixth Sense can be found in the Xerox  
DocuPrint IPS 96/4635/180 Troubleshooting Guide.

The 256 MB RAM processor is the central processing unit of the Sun  
workstation. It contains a power switch, an internal disk drive, a  
diskette drive, a CD-ROM drive, a power receptacle and outlet,  
connectors and ports.  
The processor has the following components:  
•
Internal disk drive: One 4.2 GB internal disk drive is provided  
as a standard feature of the processor. The operating system,  
the IPS application, and any queued print jobs are stored on the  
internal disk. This disk cannot be used to store other  
applications or data except as directed by your service  
representative. Up to three optional disk drives are available in  
increments of 4 or 9 GB.  
•
Diskette drive: Diskettes inserted into a diskette drive are used  
to load files to, and back up files from, the internal disk drive.  
The diskette drive uses industry standard 3.5 inch, 1.44 MB,  
double-sided, high-density diskettes. This diskette drive is not  
an input source for print jobs nor any other data or application; it

Printer control console  
The printer control console is the color monitor located on top of the  
printer. It contains message areas and graphic displays that alert you  
to paper jams and other fault and status conditions (such as low dry  
ink). It also contains buttons which allow you to control certain  
functions of the printer (for example, continuing an interrupted job)  
without returning to the workstation controller.  
The printer control console has the following features:  
•
Local controls and displays for jam clearance, paper loading/  
unloading, and diagnostics/service (used by the service  
representative). Two types of messages are displayed on the  
printer control console: fault messages, which relate to printer  
malfunctions, and information messages, which relate to printer  
conditions such as low dry ink.  
•
•
Touch-sensitive areas that allow you to select options by  
touching the printer control console screen. A tone sounds  
when you touch one of these areas.  
Attention alarm tone consisting of three beeps, repeated for  
ten seconds. The alarm is generated by any event that stops  
the printer and requires operator attention. The alarm may be  
disabled by the operator.  
The tone stops after three cycles, or when the fault condition is  
cleared or clearing has started (for example, doors or covers  
specified in the clearance instructions are opened). You can  
stop the tone by pressing one of the printer control console  
buttons or by selecting a function through the touch screen.

PRINTER COMPONENTS AND OPTIONS  
Printer options  
The bypass transport and input enablement options provide an  
interface between your DocuPrint system and your finishing and  
feeding accessories. However, these feeding and finishing options  
require separate AC and DC power sources that are independent of  
your printer.  
Consult your Xerox sales representative, as well as the sales  
representative of the company from which you purchased your  
finishing and feeding equipment, for specific electrical and space  
requirements.  
Bypass transport  
The ability to add a third-party finisher to your DocuPrint system is  
made possible by the bypass transport option. Finishers increase  
your production capabilities by providing a wide variety of finishing  
choices (for example, slitting, booklet making, binding, and so forth).  
Connected to the feeder/stacker, the bypass transport allows  
finishers to interface directly with your DocuPrint system. It accepts  
all paper stocks within the DocuPrint 96/4635/180 range and  
accommodates simplex and duplex printing.

PRINTER COMPONENTS AND OPTIONS  
Input enablement  
Adding a third-party feeder to your DocuPrint system is made  
possible by the input enablement option. The DocuPrint 96/4635  
printers accept cut sheets from the feeding device through an entry  
slot at the lower right side of the last feeder/stacker module.  
The input enablement option provides extended paper feed  
capability from third-party feeder devices. Sheets are received from  
third party feeder devices through an entry slot located in the last  
feeder/stacker module of the system.  
The DP180 printer accepts cut sheets from the rear of the stacker  
into a feeding device that replaces an existing high-capacity feeder  
assembly.  
Note: The DocuPrint 4635 can support a maximum of three feeder/  
stackers with both the input enablement and the bypass transport.  
The DocuPrint 96 can support a maximum of two feeder/stackers  
with both the input enablement and the bypass transport. The  
DocuPrint 180 can support a maximum of three feeder/stackers with  
both the input enablement and the bypass transport. For the  
DocuPrint 180, a maximum of four feeder/stackers can be supported  
with the input enablement device only.  
The following figure illustrates the system with the bypass transport

PREPARING FOR INSTALLATION  
Connectivity requirements  
A Token Ring network or an Ethernet local area network running  
TCP/IP is the network communication system that may be used to  
transport documents from the host to the IPS. This is an alternative  
to the channel-attached configuration, in which data is transmitted via  
bus and tag cables and the HCU.  
Note: The TCP/IP connectivity option is not available in a VM or  
VSE environment. However, a printing system with PSF/2 or  
PSF/6000 can attach to a PSF/VSE system and the PSF/2 or PSF/  
6000 can furnish the TCP/IP support for the IPS printer.  
Ethernet specifications  
The Ethernet connection to the printer controller processor must be  
compatible with the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers  
(IEEE) 802.3 standard.  
The Ethernet interface on the processor is a 10 Mb/sec twisted pair  
standard (10BaseT and 100BaseT). The MII (for UltraSPARC) Coax  
Ethernet is enabled with an adapter cable.  
Note: Only the RS/6000 currently supports 100 Mb Ethernet  
connectivity.  
Work with your system administrator to assess what type of network  
you have and what modifications need to be made to supply an  
Ethernet connector to the printer controller processor.  
Token Ring specifications  
The Token Ring connection must be compatible with the IEEE 802.3  
standard. The printer controller processor has a 4MB or 16 MB  
Token Ring Auto interface (16 MB is preferred).  
Channel-attached specifications  
For an online configuration with an IBM host system, the following  
cables must be available:  
•
•
Bus and tag cables (bus in, bus out, tag in, tag out)  
Terminators (if necessary, due to location on channel).  
For your convenience, it is possible to order the Bus and Tag cables  
for the printer through Xerox Corporation on a purchase-only basis.  
Contact your Xerox or Xerox Ltd. sales representative for current  
pricing and order information.

PRINTER SPECIFICATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS  
Space requirements  
You should consider the following factors when deciding where to  
place the printing system hardware components:  
•
Adequate work space and service clearance around the  
equipment  
•
•
Proximity to electrical and network connectors  
Security of the work area. You may need to place the system in  
an area where you can restrict access to it. This may be  
important if your personnel need to print confidential documents  
or if you are concerned with unauthorized usage.  
Dimensions and weights of the printer components are listed in this  
section, along with diagrams, to help you visualize the sizes and total  
space requirements.  
Note: There must be a 78-inch / 198-cm vertical clearance  
throughout the entire area. Your printer must be installed in a fixed  
location with a minimum clearance space of 36 inches / 91.4 cm  
around all sides of each piece of equipment for access by service  
personnel. In addition, there must be 50 inches / 126.9 cm clearance  
space in front of the printer.  
For information on clearance space and other space planning  
considerations, refer to the “Space planning guidelines” section of  
this chapter. Contact your service representative if you have  
questions not specifically addressed in this guide.

PRINTER SPECIFICATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS  
Space planning guidelines  
When determining your space requirements and planning for shared  
space between your printers, it is important to consider all of the  
components you plan to install.  
To ensure all of the space requirements are met, it is important to  
work with your Xerox representative.  
Before installation, you must consider the following:  
•
•
Clearance space requirements where you intend to install the  
printer  
Recommended cable lengths and locations (refer to the  
“System connections” chapter of this guide for more  
information)  
•
•
Delivery access requirements  
Floor leveling.  
Clearance space requirements  
The printer must be installed in a fixed location that provides the  
following clearance space:  
•
•
36 inches / 91.4 cm on all sides of each component  
24 inches / 61 cm of exclusive operator area in front of each  
component  
•
78 inches / 198 cm of vertical clearance throughout the entire  
area.  
Note: There must be a total of 50 inches / 126.9 cm of clearance  
space in front of the printer.  
Shared space  
It is best to provide the full amount of clearance space around the  
hardware components. Your environment may require you to use  
shared space between components, such as between the printer and  
the printer controller or between the printer and another Xerox  
printing system. You can share the 36-inch / 91.4 cm clearance  
space around each component, as long as you follow these rules:  
•
•
Space may be shared only with other Xerox equipment.  
Components may share the 36-inch / 91.4 cm general service  
clearance areas, but they may not share the 24-inch / 61 cm  
operator area in front of each component.  
•
There must be 78 inches / 198 cm of vertical clearance  
throughout the entire area.  
Note: Finishers attached to your bypass transport and feeders  
attached to your DocuPrint 4635, 96, or 180 printer through the input  
enablement device may occupy shared space with Xerox equipment.  
However, they must be removable to allow servicing of the DocuPrint

PRINTER SPECIFICATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS  
4635, 96, or 180 printer feeders and stackers. Consult with your  
Xerox representative to ensure all the requirements are met.  
The following figures illustrate three possible configurations of  
shared space.  
Back-to-back shared space  
The figure below illustrates the two printers placed in a back-to-back  
position. This allows them to share the entire 36 inches / 91.4 cm of  
general service space.

PRINTER SPECIFICATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS  
Face-to-face shared space  
The following figure shows the two printers facing each other. The  
printers share 12 inches / 30.5 cm of the general service space, but  
not the exclusive operator area in front of each printer. Therefore, the  
printers should be separated by 24 inches / 61 cm, plus 24 inches /  
61 cm, plus 12 inches / 30.5 cm. This allows for the entire operator  
space for each printer, plus the shared general service area of 12  
inches / 30.5 cm.

PRINTER SPECIFICATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS  
Face-to-back shared space  
The following figure shows the two printers arranged with one facing  
the back of the other. Between them is 60 inches / 152.4 cm of space.  
This allows for 24 inches / 61 cm of operator space in front of the  
printer facing toward the other, plus 36 inches / 91.4 cm of service  
space behind the printer facing away from the other.

PRINTER SPECIFICATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS  
Floor leveling  
For proper operation, the printer must be perfectly level. On floors  
less than two degrees out of level, installation personnel use a  
leveling kit to level the machine.  
Note: The printer will not function properly on floors more than two  
degrees out of level.  
If the floor is more than two degrees out of level, this condition cannot  
be corrected by the leveling kit. Another suitable location must be  
found for the printer to be installed properly.  
For your reference, two degrees represents a height discrepancy of  
approximately 3.8 inches / 9.6 cm measured at the casters with the  
printer tilting from left to right, or approximately 0.7 inches / 1.8 cm  
with the printer tilting from back to front.  
If you move the printer unit after its initial installation, it is your  
responsibility to make sure that the printer can be leveled properly. If  
you do not have the leveling kit (the printer in its initial location did not  
require it), and you need one to level the printer in a new location,  
contact your Xerox site representative to obtain one.  
Delivery access requirements  
It is easy to overlook the path required to move the equipment from  
the truck to the operation site. To determine access, ask the following  
questions:  
•
•
Does the equipment need to go up stairs?  
Do you have an elevator, if the equipment is to be located above  
the first floor?  
•
•
•
Is the elevator large enough for the equipment?  
How wide are the hallways and doorways?  
Do you have a loading dock or a specific door to which the  
equipment should be delivered?  
You need to review these issues prior to, or at the time of, the site  
inspection conducted by your service representative.  
The equipment dimensions are specified earlier in this chapter, so it  
is easy to determine whether your hallways and doorways are wide  
enough to permit access.

PRINTER SPECIFICATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS  
Turning radius  
You must also consider the width of the passageway when the  
equipment must negotiate a corner, whether into a room, an elevator,  
or another passageway.  
There are L-shaped turns and T-shaped turns. The diagrams and the  
tables that follow show the minimum space required to maneuver  
through the turns.

Using the turning radius tables  
To use the tables:  
1. Measure the minimum width of the passage or doorway you  
need to use. This is Passage A.  
2. Find that number (or the next higher number) in the turning  
radius table and read across to the corresponding minimum  
value for Passage B, depending on the type of turn the  
equipment must negotiate.

PRINTER SPECIFICATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS  
Turning radius for printer with  
separated components  
The 96, 4635 or 180 is delivered with the printer, inverter feeder/  
stacker, and each feeder/stacker as separate modules. If necessary,  
the printer can be separated into two pieces for ease in moving. The  
larger of the two parts contains the xerographic system; the smaller  
of the parts (the paper handling module, or PHM) contains paper  
trays 1 and 2. Do not confuse these two parts of the printer with the  
inverter and feeder/stacker modules, which have their own turning  
requirements.  
The following table lists the turning requirements for the printer  
without the PHM (separated).

PRINTER SPECIFICATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS  
Space planning templates  
The dimensions and space requirements for your printer components  
are provided earlier in this chapter. The space planning templates  
are designed to simplify the space planning process by helping you  
to create a floor plan for your base components, particularly if you  
have shared clearance space.  
The easiest way to use the space planning templates is to move the  
templates around on the grid located at the end of this section and  
determine the optimum placement for your printer components.  
Make sure to consider other pieces of equipment, such as cabinets,  
tables, and optional equipment when planning your space. Your  
customer support representative can help you plan space for  
additional components.  
The templates are to scale with the grid; each square is equal to 12  
by 12 inches/30.5 by 30.5 cm. The curved dotted lines in the corners  
of the space perimeters indicate the corners that may be rounded off  
while still maintaining the required clearance space.  
There are a number of factors to keep in mind when planning your  
site, including the following:

Clearance space requirements  
Cable length.  
Refer to these sections in this manual when considering the various  
factors involved in planning the appropriate location for your printing  
system.  
When determining your space requirements, remember to consider  
all of the components you plan to have installed. If you have a bypass  
transport or input enablement device option on your printing system,  
you should contact the sales representatives for the company from  
which you purchased your finishers and feeders, as well as your  
Xerox representative, to ensure that all of your space requirements  
are met.

7System connections  
This chapter provides cable requirements for your 96/4635/180 IPS  
system. It also provides information about channel-attaching your  
IPS printer. To ensure all of your cable requirements are met, it is  
important to work with your Xerox representative.  
Cable lengths  
Cable lengths are important considerations in planning your layout,  
as components can be separated only up to the length of the data  
interface cables that connect them.  
Cables supplied with the printer are of sufficient length to meet the  
needs of most installations. Some of these cables are specific  
lengths to conform to engineering and safety standards.  
Data cables  
The printer components can be separated up to the length of the data  
interface cables that connect them. The printer and controller are  
connected by a 25-foot / 7.6 meter data cable.  
Power cables  
The 96/4635/180 power cable lengths are as follows:  
Table 7-1.  
Power cable lengths

Printer controller  
Printer  
8 feet / 2.1 m  
15 feet / 4.4 m  
Warning: Using an inappropriate alternate cable may degrade the  
performance of your equipment and may also be hazardous.  
!
Note: Cable length loss must be factored in if equipment is installed  
in a raised-floor environment. You should also consider that part of  
the length of a cable is routed inside the equipment to connect with  
interior power or data receptacles.

SYSTEM CONNECTIONS  
Cable locations  
To run the cables beneath the flooring effectively, it is necessary to  
know where the cables enter and exit the printer. The following  
diagrams show those locations (marked with an X).  
All power cords attach to the back of the printer. Listed below are the  
distances of the printer power cord attachments from the left end of  
the printer as you face it.

Channel attachments  
The IPS printing system conforms to IBM standards and  
requirements for any channel-attached printer. When you channel-  
attach your printer, keep the following in mind:  
•
Channel length is usually determined by the length of the  
cables, the number of devices on the channel, and the number  
of connections in the cable itself (for example, connecting two  
cables to each other).  
•
•
Subtract 15 feet from the total allowable cable length for any  
device attached to the channel or for any connection of two  
cables.  
IBM channel cable lengths are as follows:  
—
—
Gray: 200 feet / 61 m (with one device, 185 feet / 56 m)  
Blue: 400 feet / 122 m (with one device, 385 feet / 117 m)  
For further information regarding IBM channel connections, refer to

8Installation  
This chapter describes the activities performed by you and Xerox  
during the installation of the Xerox DocuPrint 96/96 MICR IPS,  
4635/4635 MICR IPS, and 180/180 MICR IPS, and hardware and  
software components. Before installation can begin, you must  
complete the tasks described in the “Preparing for installation”  
chapter.  
Installation process  
Xerox is responsible for the physical installation of the 96/96 MICR,  
4635/4635 MICR, or 180/180 MICR IPS hardware components and  
the software.  
For customers outside the United States, contact your local Xerox  
operating company for your specific installation process.  
The installation process can take one or several days to complete.  
Equipment, software kits, and documentation kits may all arrive in  
one day, or over the course of several days. When all of the  
necessary items are in place, Xerox personnel will complete the  
installation of the IPS components.  
The steps in the installation process typically occur in the following  
order:  
1. Xerox personnel install all IPS hardware and options at your  
site. This process takes approximately 24 hours if all of the  
necessary connectors are in place.  
2. Xerox personnel obtain a license authorizing you to use the IPS  
operating system software, and enable the license by inputting  
the 20-character text string assigned to you.  
3. Xerox personnel place the system online.  
4. Xerox personnel load the initial applications and run sample  
jobs.  
5. Xerox personnel test the system and run sample jobs (30  
minutes).  
6. Xerox personnel conduct initial operations training (2 to 4  
hours).  
7. Xerox personnel review preventive maintenance schedules and  
service call procedures.

INSTALLATION  
Your responsibilities  
Xerox is responsible for the physical installation of the printer  
components and for loading the software and applications. You have  
the general site responsibility of ensuring that the right personnel,  
supplies, and network information are available.  
At the time of installation, you should do the following:  
•
•
Make sure that your system administrator is available during the  
loading of software.  
If you plan to operate in Dual Mode, for software loading  
purposes, be prepared to provide Xerox personnel with any  
network information.  
•
•
Have test jobs ready to run.  
Have the necessary parameters defined to configure PSF for  
connectivity to your IPS printer.  
•
Have list of stocks you want used for your default input tray  
configuration.  
•
•
Have your operators available for training.  
Sysgen your host to print to an AFP1-type printer. Refer to the  
IBM ITSC Distributing AFP Printing from a Host System  
(#GG24-4493) documentation for further information.  
•
If your system will be channel-attached, make available a bus  
and tag connection from the host system as follows:  
—
—
—
AS/400 requires a Barr/AFD or PS/2 with a channel card.  
RS/6000 requires a channel card for IPS connectivity.  
PS/2 requires a channel card for IPS connectivity.  
•
•
•
Make AFP application resources available at a resolution of 300  
dpi to optimize output quality.  
Check the documentation and software kits against their  
packing lists for completeness.  
Remember you are responsible for supplying, installing, and  
maintaining your Token Ring or Ethernet Local Area network  
that connects your host with your printer controller.  
Refer to the installation planning checklist in the “Preparing for  
installation” chapter of this guide for a complete list of responsibilities.

INSTALLATION  
Defining the IPS printer to the host  
Prior to installation of your IPS printer, your host system must be  
configured to communicate with and print on the IPS. This requires  
defining several printer parameters to your host. The required  
information and configuration procedures differ according to your  
connectivity type (channel or TCP/IP), and your host and PSF  
environment. You will need to provide these parameters to your  
Xerox representative on installation day.  
There are two appendices in this guide which provide printer  
configuration procedures and the parameters you must define in  
order to configure PSF to make a connection with your IPS. One  
appendix discusses channel-attached environments; the other  
appendix provides information for environments in which the IPS  
uses TCP/IP to communicate via Ethernet or Token Ring.  
Parameters are given for MVS mainframes, AS/400, RS/6000  
running AIX, and PS/2 or other personal computers running OS/2.  
Software licensing  
When an IPS is purchased, the owner needs to receive a license to  
use the operating system software. Once a user calls in with a host  
ID, (Sun SPARC/Ultra host ID), the user receives a license string.  
Refer to the “Setting up the printer controller” chapter in the Guide to  
Configuring and Managing the System (section titled “Loading the  
IPS software license text stream”).  
This license is enabled by entering a 20-character authorization text  
string at the printer controller keyboard. Your Xerox service  
representative obtains this license text string for you and enters it  
when your IPS is installed.  
Until this license string is entered, your IPS cannot receive data from  
the host to print. You can power on and boot the system, and perform  
all offline tasks such as setting up input and output configurations,  
but the IPS remains in Disabled mode and cannot print.  
Although your service representative usually does this for you, you  
also can enter your license string, by selecting IPS Authorization  
Enablement from the Administration pulldown menu on the IPS main  
window. Refer to the Guide to Configuring and Managing the  
System, “Setting up the printer controller” chapter, for the procedure.  
Note: If your system will be operating in Dual Mode, it requires two  
license strings: one for IPS and one for NPS.

INSTALLATION  
Ongoing maintenance  
After the installation of your Xerox DocuPrint IPS, there are a few  
ongoing tasks that must be performed. These tasks may include the  
following:  
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Maintaining an adequate inventory of consumable supplies  
Overseeing routine maintenance and meter reporting  
Arranging for additional operator training  
Ordering additional fonts  
Ordering additional documentation  
Placing service calls for hardware problems  
Obtaining assistance in solving software-related problems.  
As installation coordinator, it is your responsibility to designate the  
staff members responsible for these tasks.  
Routine maintenance  
A number of routine maintenance tasks must be performed to ensure  
maximum efficiency of your printer. These tasks include:  
•
•
•
•
•
•
Adding standard dry ink to your IPS  
Adding MICR dry ink to your 96/4635/180 MICR IPS  
Adding fuser agent  
Replacing the dry ink waste container  
Cleaning sensors in the printer  
Cleaning the exterior surfaces of the system.  
Step-by-step instructions on performing these routine maintenance  
tasks are contained in the Guide to Performing Routine Maintenance.  
You need to decide how many operators will be responsible for  
performing these maintenance tasks. Most maintenance procedures  
are covered in the initial operator training provided shortly after  
installation.  
Note: Only operators who have completed the Xerox ACT course  
or equivalent advanced customer training can replace stitcher wire.  
Refer to the “Xerox support services” appendix of this guide for  
additional information on training.  
Meter reading and reporting  
As print jobs are processed, the printer controller accumulates,  
saves, and maintains usage data.  
During the last five working days of each month, you need to review  
and transmit the data to Xerox for billing purposes. Refer to your  
Guide to Performing Routine Maintenance for complete instructions  
on how to report meter readings.

A.  
ASupplies  
This appendix provides information and specifications for the media  
you use with your Xerox DocuPrint 96, 4635, or 180 printer.  
Instructions for ordering supplies are also provided.  
Consumable supplies (those that are depleted during operation of  
the system), such as paper, dry ink, developer, fuser agent, etc.,  
must be ordered for your printer. It is important that an adequate  
supply of these items be on hand for installation, and that your supply  
be maintained afterwards.  
Paper and other throughput stocks  
The success of any print run is greatly dependent on the proper  
selection, care, and handling of the stock used.  
Selecting paper  
You need to select your paper carefully. If you do not use the proper  
paper, you increase the probability of paper jams and misfeeds. The  
stocks you use must meet the specifications set forth by Xerox for  
operability in the printer. For additional information about paper  
specifications, refer to Helpful Facts about Paper, delivered with your  
printer.  
Acceptable paper stocks and sizes  
Your 96, 4635 or 180 printer accepts the following standard size cut-  
sheet papers:  
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
7 by 10 inches / 178 by 254 mm (with 7-inch kit option)

A3: 11.69 by 16.54 inches / 297 by 420 mm.  
Recommended weight and grade:  
Use a good quality, xerographic-grade paper. For best results, use  
paper that is 20-pound or 80 gsm (grams per square meter) bond,  
xerographic grade. Xerox 4024 Dual Purpose Paper provides optimal  
performance in the printer. Refer to the consumable supplies table  
later in this appendix.

SUPPLIES  
Use paper within these parameters:  
•
•
Lightest: 16-pound or 65 gsm bond  
Heaviest: 110-pound or 200-gsm index.  
Note: It is recommended that you use 24-pound paper with MICR  
applications, or paper specified by your local banking regulatory  
authority.  
Characteristics  
The paper stock should have the following characteristics:  
•
Low moisture content (a paper-to-moisture ratio below 5.7  
percent). Paper with higher moisture content may curl and jam.  
•
•
•
•
Smooth surface  
Moisture-resistant wrapping  
No defects (bent edges, uneven surfaces)  
Grain long (parallel with the long side of paper).  
Paper is usually fed into the printer with the long side as the  
leading edge (except 11 by 17-inch or A3 paper). When you  
purchase paper, buy long-grain paper. Make sure the grain is  
parallel with the long side (long-grain) for the most reliable  
feeding and stacking.  
Special stocks  
Following are some guidelines for choosing and using special  
materials:  
•
•
•
Labels — Must be the type designed for high-speed printers  
and must meet the specifications described in the section  
above. Loading instructions are printed on all paper trays.  
Use only the processor feeding trays (trays 1 and 2) for labels.  
Load labels in the tray with the label side up.  
You can direct printed labels to any output tray. Be sure the  
printed labels are stacked face up in the output tray, to avoid ink  
offsetting and jams due to delamination.  
Transparencies — Must be the type designed for high-speed  
printers and must meet the specifications described in the  
section above. Loading instructions are printed on all paper  
trays.  
Load transparencies with the opaque strip to the right. All  
printed transparencies are delivered to the sample tray.  
As long as they meet your printer’s paper specifications, you  
can also use:  
Tinted paper — Available in a variety of colors, it has many  
uses, including calling attention to certain printed material,  
separating special sections, or dividing chapters of a report.  
•
•
Preprinted paper — May be letterhead, forms, or logos.  
Predrilled paper — Has a varying number of holes for use in  
binders or binder rings. Before loading predrilled paper, fan it to  
remove loose plugs that could cause paper jams. Load  
predrilled paper in the printer with holes to the right.

Perforated paper  
Pre-cut or full tabs  
Carbonless paper.  
Note: The 96/4635/180 printer can print on precollated or ordered  
stocks, including ordered tabs. However, jam recovery is not  
supported with these stocks.  
Paper width and printer performance  
The width of the paper you use for your print job is directly related to  
the rate at which the 96, 4635, and 180 printer can print a job. The  
rate at which a job prints is the throughput speed and is measured in  
pages per minute (ppm). You will want to keep in mind the following  
information on the relationship of paper width to printer performance,  
when selecting paper for your applications.  
The printer operates in different pitch modes. The pitch mode the  
printer uses for a specific print job is based on the paper size on  
which that job is printed. The following tables list the pitch mode  
boundary values, paper widths, and related printing speeds  
supported on the 96/4635/180 printer. These charts show that the  
shorter the paper width, the higher the pitch mode and the faster the  
throughput speed—higher pages per minute (ppm) rate. (“Pages per  
minute” is synonymous with “impressions per minute.”)

When the printing speed appears to degrade, you may be able to  
improve it by running the print job in a higher pitch mode.  
Paper size/pitch mode minimum and  
maximum  
The illustrations in this section show the pitch modes in which you  
can operate with the smallest and largest size papers supported by  
the 96/4635/180 printer.  
Using small paper sizes in 8-pitch mode:  
Printing in 8-pitch mode provides the highest throughput speed  
available —up to 154 ppm for the 4635 printer and up to 206 ppm for  
the 180 printer. (The 96 printer does not support 8-pitch mode.)  
However, you should keep the following in mind when you select the  
paper you want to use for this mode:  
•
•
Paper sizes smaller than 8 inches / 203 mm are supported only  
when the optional 7-inch paper kit is installed on the printer.  
The leading edge of any paper used in the printer cannot be  
less than 10 inches / 254 mm long.

These paper sizes slow down the throughput speed (as shown in  
tables above).  
Note: The 96/4635/180 printer can support 14 by 17-inch / 356 by  
432 mm, 20 pound or 80 gsm paper stock in 3-pitch mode. However,  
printing performance is not guaranteed for all types of paper of this  
size. Heavy (110-pound / 200 gsm) and light (16-pound / 60 gsm)  
large papers can cause jams throughout the system and are not  
recommended.

Paper care  
Once you have purchased your paper, you must be sure it is stored  
and conditioned properly, so that it performs optimally in the printer  
with a minimum of jams.  
Storing paper  
Paper has a tendency to curl under the heat that is present inside  
xerographic equipment. To minimize the amount of curling, use  
paper with low moisture content. Paper with excessive moisture  
content has a tendency to jam because of the greater curl. The  
maximum recommended moisture content is 5.7 percent.  
Keep these points in mind when preparing your paper storage area:  
•
Store paper in its own wrapper; do not leave it unwrapped or  
where it can be damaged by dampness or heat.  
•
•
•
Store paper on a flat surface and not on its side or edge.  
Store reams of paper in a closed cabinet.  
Always store paper in a cool, dry area. Store on pallets or  
shelves, not on the floor.  
•
Plan ahead and keep at least a day’s supply of paper in the  
same area as the printer to allow environmental stabilization  
prior to printing.  
For more detailed information on paper for Xerox printers, refer to  
Helpful Facts about Paper, provided with your printer.

Figure A-10. Recommended temperature and humidity for paper  
storage  
Conditioning paper  
Because temperature and humidity affect paper performance in the  
printer, you need to condition paper before using it. To do this, store  
paper for a specified length of time in the same type of environment  
as your printer.  
The length of time you should condition your paper depends on the  
amount of paper and the difference between the storage and  
operating temperatures.  
Use the following chart to determine the length of time needed to  
condition stacked cartons of paper.  
Note: The numbers in the top two rows indicate the temperature  
difference between the storage area and the operating environment,  
not actual room temperatures.

Other supplies  
This section describes the supplies other than paper that are  
necessary for installation and afterward. Your sales representative  
will help you place your initial supply order.  
Dry ink  
Dry ink (also called toner) is the black powder which forms the image  
on the printed page. There are three cartridges of dry ink in each  
carton. You should keep at least one extra cartridge on hand at all  
times. The disposable cartridges are easily changed with no mess.  
The consumption rate of Xerox dry ink is approximately one cartridge  
per 60,000 pages. Use only dry ink that is specified for use in the 96,  
4635, or 180 printer, as described in the consumable supplies table.  
MICR dry ink  
MICR dry ink is the magnetic black powder which forms the image on  
the printed MICR document. There are three cartridges of MICR dry  
ink in each carton. The consumption rate of Xerox MICR dry ink is  
approximately one cartridge per 60,000 pages. Use only MICR dry  
ink in your 96/4635/180 MICR printer.  
The dry ink used with the 96/4635/180 MICR system is designed for  
MICR printing and does not function well when used in non-MICR  
systems. The same procedure used for non-MICR printing systems  
is used to add the dry ink to the 96/4635/180 MICR printer.  
Note: Dry ink (toner) yields are based on 7% area coverage. Your  
yield may vary, depending on coverage.  
Caution: Use only MICR dry ink in the 96/4635/180 MICR printer.  
Do not use standard dry ink. MICR dry ink cannot be reused.  
Fuser agent  
Developer  
A-12  
Fuser agent (the lubricant for the printer fuser) is a consumable item  
required by the 96/4635/180 printers. You should keep at least two  
boxes (each box contains one bottle) on hand for installation by the  
service representative. The consumption rate of Xerox fuser agent is  
approximately one bottle per 250,000 pages. For product  
information, refer to the consumable supplies table in this appendix.  
Developer is not consumed by the printer but does have an effective  
life of approximately 1,000,000 pages per carton (600,000 per carton  
for MICR developer). Both kinds of developer are guaranteed by  
Xerox for 600,000 pages per carton. Developer is a required item and  
must be kept on hand.

SUPPLIES  
Use only the developer specified for use in your 96, 4635,or 180  
printer.  
Caution: The 96/4635/180 MICR printers require a different  
developer, with a different part number, from the developer used in  
the standard 96/4635/180 printer. Be sure you use only designated  
MICR developer in the 96/4635/180 MICR printers.  
The developer is changed by your service representative. For  
product information, refer to the consumable supplies table in this  
appendix.  
Diskettes  
Diskettes are optional items that provide loading and backup of fonts,  
forms, and user files to and from the printing system. The processor  
accepts 3.5-inch, 1.44 MB, double-sided, high density diskettes.  
Cartridge tapes  
The optional 4 mm cartridge tape drive uses 5 GB or 8 GB tapes. The  
optional quarter-inch cartridge (QIC) tape drive uses 150 MB QIC  
tapes.

MICR tools  
You can use the following tools to determine whether the MICR  
output is printing within MICR specifications:  
•
•
MICR Positioning and Dimension Gauge.  
8 Power (X) Comparator with MICR grid.  
Note: You should use the Custom Transfer Assist Blade to ensure  
acceptable MICR line quality on all MICR printing systems that use  
nonstandard paper sizes.  
MICR Positioning and Dimension Gauge  
The MICR Positioning and Dimension Gauge (part number  
600T80025) consists of a thin sheet of flexible plastic attached to the  
bottom of a piece of hard thick plastic. The gauge is provided in a kit  
that includes a small magnifying glass.  
To use the gauge, place the printed output between the two pieces  
of plastic. This allows you to compare the MICR output elements  
against industry standard output. Using this process, you can verify  
the character spacing, check the horizontal and vertical alignment,  
and look for spots and voids.  
MICR comparator  
You use the eight power (X) comparator with MICR grid to compare  
the characters on the MICR output to industry standard output.  
The comparator is an optical tool that magnifies each character eight  
times. It has a built-in scale that measures the size of the MICR  
characters and checks for spots and voids (deletions).  
Keep the following in mind when using the 8 Power (X) Comparator  
with MICR grid:  
•
•
•
Patterned paper can cause viewing problems. You should use  
white paper when you perform quality evaluations.  
The quality of the MICR output may vary, depending on the type  
of paper you use.  
Handle the comparator with care. The grid is printed on the  
bottom and may be damaged or worn off in time.  
You can use the comparator with transmitted or reflected light.

Ordering supplies  
To avoid unnecessary downtime, always have an adequate amount  
of the necessary supplies. To do this, you need to establish a  
procedure for checking and ordering supplies. A supplies checklist is  
provided at the end of this chapter to help you with this task. It lists  
the supplies needed for the printer and contains a column for you to  
enter the date when you want to place the order and a column to  
record the date of the actual order. The consumable supplies table,  
above, contains a list of Xerox supplies available for the printer.  
It is important that you check your supplies regularly and order before  
you run out. Plan on approximately five working days for delivery  
after placing the order. You can make arrangements to receive them  
sooner in emergency situations.  
Your Xerox sales representative can help you submit the initial order  
of supplies needed for installation. These items include paper, dry  
ink, MICR dry ink, fuser agent, developer, and MICR developer.

EDefining the printer to the  
host: TCP/IP attachment  
This appendix contains instructions, prerequisites, and some sample  
printer parameters for defining your TCP/IP-attached IPS printer to  
your host in each supported PSF environment.  
Note: The IPS does not support TCP/IP in the VM environment.  
PSF/VSE does not support TCP/IP directly; however, a printing  
system with PSF/2 or PSF/6000 can attach to a PSF/VSE system  
and the PSF/2 or PSF/6000 can furnish the TCP/IP support for the  
IPS printer.  
MVS or OS/390 parameters  
This section discusses the parameters and procedures required to  
define an IPS printer to your host, followed by examples of the  
parameters required for a Token Ring connection using TCP/IP in a  
MVS environment.  
Note: The MVS examples shown are for a Token Ring connection.  
However, the same parameters will be required for an Ethernet  
connection using TCP/IP.  
Software prerequisites – MVS  
On an MVS/ESA or OS/390 host system, you must have the  
following software to print through PSF on a TCP/IP-attached IPS:  
•
•
PSF/MVS Version 2, release 2.0, with APAR OW 15599  
MVS Scheduler APAR OW 12236 to support two new  
PRINTDEV keywords: IPADDR and PORTNO  
•
TCP/IP Version 3, release 1 or higher, installed and configured  
on MVS.  
You must have these prerequisites installed on your host before you  
begin the configuration process described in this chapter. Ensure  
that the manuals for the proper software releases are used.

Basic configuration in which the MVS host is attached to a LAN  
using a Token Ring or Ethernet network adapter card  
Remote LAN environment in which there are data  
communication links between the host and the LAN-attached  
controller  
•
•
Configurations in which the LAN with the printer attached is  
connected to the host-attached controller using LAN devices  
such as routers  
Environments with intermediate host systems between the  
MVS host running PSF and the LAN-attached controller.  
Note: There may be printer performance and throughput  
implications with some of these configurations. It is recommended  
that your network management group be involved with planning this  
installation.  
Configuration steps – MVS  
The software configuration process for IPS in an MVS or OS/390  
environment with TCP/IP consists of five major steps:  
1. Configure the IPS printer for TCP/IP at the GUI  
Refer to the “Setting the system configuration” chapter of the Guide  
to Configuring and Managing the System for this graphical user  
interface (GUI) procedure.  
2. Configure the MVS CCU for the MVS host to MVS  
The MVS communications control unit (CCU) could be the 3172,  
3174, or 3745 control unit. To configure it to MVS, you can use either  
a hardware configuration definition (HCD) or an MVS configuration  
program (MVSCP). If your control unit and LAN are already installed  
and operational, skip this step.  
Note: The AFP1 parameter used when channel-attached IPDS  
printers are defined is not applicable in this configuration. It is the  
communications control unit (3172, 3174, or 3745) that is being  
defined to MVS, not the printer’s control unit.  
3. Configure the PSF printer in JES2 or JES3  
This section discusses the procedures for configuring the IPS in  
JES2 or JES3 environments.  
Configuring in JES2  
To configure the PSF printer in JES2, follow these steps:  
1. Locate the JES2 initialization dataset in the JES2 Startup JCL  
Procedure (JES2 PROC). (This is normally kept in  
E-2

DEFINING THE PRINTER TO THE HOST: TCP/IP ATTACHMENT  
SYS1.PROCLIB, although your system may use a different  
library.)  
The JES2 PROC has a DD statement (normally HASPPARM),  
which points to the initialization dataset. (The location of this  
statement is ‘SYS1.PARMLIB(JES2PARM);’ however, you  
should always verify the location on your own system.)  
2. Enter the following required commands in the JES2 initialization  
dataset to define the PSF functional subsystem (FSS):  
•
•
One FSS statement for each PSF functional subsystem  
One PRTnnnn statement for each functional subsystem  
application (FSA) under control of the FSS. (This can also  
be specified as PRINTnn or PRINTERn.)

4. Configure the printer in PSF/MVS  
Follow these steps to configure the IPS printer in PSF:  
1. Locate the PSF startup procedure in the JES3 or JES2 startup  
JCL procedure. This is normally kept in SYS1.PROCLIB,  
although your system may use a different library.  
The libraries specified by the //PROC00 DD statement normally  
contains startup procedures for PSF subsystems. The name of  
the procedure is specified in the initialization dataset (FSS  
statement PROC parameter in JES2; the FSSDEF statement  
PNAME parameter in JES3. See the appropriate section in this  
appendix for clarification).  
2. Add a PRINTDEV statement to define the IPS printer in PSF.  
(See the example below for the general format or the PSF  
Systems Programming Reference for more information.  
The table below contains descriptions of the PSF parameters  
which need to be set for the IPS printer.

5. Configure TCP/IP for MVS for the printer  
The TCP/IP Profile dataset contains statements that define the  
parameters used by TCP/IP for MVS address space. The following  
parameters have special consideration for PSF and the TCP/IP-  
attached IPS printers.  
Note: It is not necessary to define the printer in TCP/IP for  
MVS, because the IPS acts as a conduit from the MVS system  
to the LAN. However, some settings in the TCP/IP Profile  
dataset may need to be altered, depending on your current  
settings.

Considerations for configuring TCP/IP  
for MVS  
Following are some considerations for configuring TCP/IP for MVS:  
•
To specify a TCP/IP address space name other than the default,  
TCPIP, code the following EXEC statement in the appropriate  
PSF writer procedure:  
STEP01 EXEC PGM=APSPPIEP,  
PARM=(,,,,tcpip_name), REGION=4096K  
where tcp/ip_name is the name of the TCP/IP address space.  
If this parameter is not coded, PSF uses the default name,  
TCPIP. (For a full description of the PARM parameter, refer to  
Print Services Facility/MVS: Diagnosis Guide and Reference.)  
•
KEEPALIVEOPTIONS statement: PSF relies on TCP to  
detect when a connection with the IPS printer is no longer  
usable. When no data has been exchanged between PSF and  
its connection partner, TCP sends keep-alive probes to the  
connection partner periodically. These periodic probes, called  
keep-alive transmissions, enable TCP to discover when a  
E-12  
XEROX DOCUPRINT 96/4635/180 IPS INSTALLATION PLANNING GUIDE  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
DEFINING THE PRINTER TO THE HOST: TCP/IP ATTACHMENT  
connection is no longer usable, even if the connection partner is  
abruptly powered off or is no longer accessible through the  
network.  
The frequency of keep-alive transmissions is controlled by the  
INTERVAL parameter on the KEEPALIVEOPTIONS statement.  
The frequency applies to all TCP applications that direct TCP to  
send keep-alive transmissions. The default frequency is after  
about two hours of inactivity.  
For printing on the IPS, it is recommended you specify a shorter  
interval than the default—such as 10 minutes—for the interval  
between keep-alive transmissions. Also, unless any target host  
requires that the keep-alive packet contain data, specify  
SENDGARBAGE FALSE. For example:  
KEEPALIVEOPTIONS INTERVAL 10 SENDGARBAGE FALSE  
ENDKEEPALIVEOPTIONS  
If you change any of the values in the TCP/IP profile, restart  
TCP/IP to pick up the changes.

DEFINING THE PRINTER TO THE HOST: TCP/IP ATTACHMENT  
6. Test the printer to ensure it prints from the MVS host  
Test the printer by one of the following methods:  
•
Send a job from the host through PSF to print on the IPS.  
(Refer to your IPS Guide to Configuring and Managing the  
System for printing procedures.)  
•
Ping the printer from your MVS host to ensure MVS can  
establish a connection with the TCP/IP-attached IPS.  
Pinging the printer – MVS  
To ping the printer from the MVS host, enter one of the following  
commands:  
•
In JES3: At your MVS host, enter the following command at the  
TSO prompt:  
TSO PING ip-address  
•
In JES2: Enter the following command from the System  
Display and Search Facility (SDSF), menu 6:  
ping ip-address  
ip-address specifies the internet protocol (IP) address of the IPS  
printer.  
If the ping is successful:  
Table E-9.Example of a successful ping – MVS  
EZA0458I Ping V3R1: Pinging host 9.99.12.33  
(Use ATTN to interrupt)  
EZA 0463I PING: Ping #1 response took 0.084 seconds.  
Successes so far = 1.  
Note: A successful ping usually indicates that the MVS system can  
communicate with the IPS. However, you could receive a successful  
ping even if the IP address of the TCP/IP-attached printer is a  
duplicate of another IP address.  
If PSF is unable to establish a network connection with the TCP/IP-  
attached IPS, or if PSF output for this printer prints elsewhere, follow  
these steps to determine whether the IP address of the printer is  
unique:  
1. Power off the printer.  
2. Wait at least five minutes for TCP/IP to clear the Address  
Resolution Protocol (ARP) tables.  
Note: If your installation specified a longer interval on the  
ARPAGE configuration statement in the TCP/IP profile, you may  
need to wait longer than five minutes. (For information about the  
ARPAGE statement, refer to the IBM TCP/IP MVS  
Customization and Administration Guide.)  
3. Enter the ping command again at the MVS system.  
If you receive a successful response to the ping command this  
time, it means there is a duplicate IP address. Consult your  
network administrator.

If the ping is unsuccessful:  
Table E-10.Example of an unsuccessful ping – MVS  
EZA0458I Ping V3R1: Pinging host 9.99.12.33  
(Use ATTN to interrupt)  
EZA 0464I PING: Ping #1 timed out  
If your ping is not successful, verify the following:  
•
•
The printer is powered on.  
The cables are properly connected between the printer and the  
LAN.  
•
•
•
•
•
The Network Interface Card (NIC) in the printer is functioning  
properly. (Consult your Xerox service representative.)  
There is proper connectivity to the Multi-station Access Unit  
(MAU), if one is being used.  
The IP address used to define the printer in PSF is unique in  
the TCP/IP network.  
The IP address of the MVS system is unique. If not, consult  
your network administrator to resolve the address problem.  
The Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) size of the IP packet for  
the MVS system is equal to the MTU size of the printer. (For  
information about the values recommended for the MVS  
system, see the “GATEWAY” statement in table B-8.)  
—
—
—
—
To change the MTU size for the MVS system, change the  
GATEWAY statement in the MVS TCP/IP profile, and  
restart TCP/IP to activate the changes.  
If you are running RouteD, the maximum MTU size is the  
one specified on the BSDROUTINGPARMS statement  
(MTU).  
The default MTU value in the IPS printer is 2052. To  
change the MTU size for the printer, refer to the Sun  
network software documentation.  
If these items are all in order, consult your network  
administrator about a possible network problem.

DEFINING THE PRINTER TO THE HOST: TCP/IP ATTACHMENT  
Correcting for printer performance issues – MVS  
Should you notice any printer performance problems—e.g., through-  
put speed degradation, check the areas listed in the following table.  
Table E-11.Components to check for printer performance  
problems  
MVS  
Printer  
LAN  
On the MVS system, ensure that both the PSF and TCP/IP  
address spaces are receiving a high level of service, are at a high  
dispatching priority, and their datasets and the JES2 spool  
datasets are on DASD volumes that have low competing activity  
from other applications and from other DASD volumes on the  
same path.  
Ensure that the Maximum Transmission Unit size (MTU) is as  
large as possible. A small MTU size increases the number of  
packets that are transmitted, allowing greater chances of  
degradation throughout the network. Increasing the MTU size in  
both TCP/IP for MVS and in the IPS printer may improve printer  
performance.  
If the printer is on a LAN that also has a large number of other  
devices attached to it, the high levels of traffic on the LAN can  
cause printer speed degradation. Consider moving the printer to  
a LAN that does not have so much activity on it.  
LAN-to-host  
attachment  
If the speed of the link connecting the LAN with the printer  
attached to the MVS system is slow, this could be a bottleneck.  
This could be a concern with any configuration in which the LAN-  
attached controller (i.e., 3745, 3172, or 3174) is not directly  
channel-attached to the host running PSF. This could occur in a  
Remote LAN configuration as discussed in the Network  
Configurations section, earlier in this chapter. Review your  
network configuration diagrams to look for any potential  
bottlenecks.

4. Test the printer connection – AS/400  
Test the printer by one of the following methods to ensure AS/400 is  
able to make a connection with the IPS printer:  
•
Send a job from the host through PSF to print on the IPS.  
(Refer to your IPS Guide to Configuring and Managing the  
System for printing procedures.)  
•
Ping the printer from your AS/400 system to ensure the AS/400  
can establish a connection with the TCP/IP-attached IPS.  
Pinging the printer  
To ping the printer to verify a connection can be made, enter the  
following command on an OS/400 command line:  
PING ‘Remote Location’  
‘remote location’ specifies the internet protocol (IP) address of the  
IPS printer (refer to the configuration worksheet, earlier in this  
section).

Note: A successful ping usually indicates that the AS/400 system  
can communicate with the IPS. However, you could receive a  
successful ping even if the IP address of the TCP/IP-attached printer  
is a duplicate of another IP address.  
If PSF output for this printer prints elsewhere, follow these steps  
to determine whether the IP address of the printer is unique:  
1. Power off the printer.  
2. Wait at least five minutes for TCP/IP to clear the Address  
Resolution Protocol (ARP) tables.  
3. Enter the ping command again at the AS/400 system.  
4. If you receive a successful response to the ping command this  
time, there is a duplicate IP address. Consult your network  
administrator.  
If the ping is unsuccessful:

If your ping is not successful, verify the following:  
•
•
•
The printer is powered on.  
TCP/IP has been started on the AS/400 (command: STRTCP).  
The cables are properly connected between the printer and the  
LAN.  
•

Should you notice any printer performance problems—e.g.,  
throughput speed degradation, check the areas listed in the following  
table.  
Table E-20.Components to check for printer performance  
problems  
LAN  
If the printer is on a LAN that also has a large number of other  
devices attached to it, the high levels of traffic on the LAN can  
cause printer speed degradation. Consider moving the printer to  
a LAN that does not have so much activity on it.  
AS/400 to LAN If the speed of the link connecting the LAN with the printer  
attachment  
attached to the AS/400 system is slow, this could be a  
bottleneck. Review your network configuration diagrams to look  
for any potential bottlenecks.

AIX parameters  
This section provides information on using TCP/IP to attach an IPS  
printer to an RS/6000 in an AIX environment using PSF/6000 or  
InfoPrint Manager. The following information is applicable to an IPS  
attached to either a Token Ring or Ethernet LAN.  
Software prerequisites – AIX  
In order to print on a TCP/IP-attached IPS printer directly through  
PSF on an RS/6000 AIX system, you must have the PSF for AIX  
version 2.1 software or InfoPrint Manager for AIX version 3.1  
software.  
It is necessary for this software to be installed on the system before  
you begin the configuration process described in this section. Make  
sure that you are using the manuals for this software release.  
Note: IBM recommends that you apply the latest program  
temporary fixes (PTF) to your system for IPDS printing. These PTFs  
are available from IBM’s website. Depending on which PSF options  
have been installed on your system, you may wish to apply the latest  
PTFs before installing your IPS. The PTF images for PSF/AIX are all  
cumulative fixes—the latest PTFs for a product include all previously  
released PTFs also.  
Program temporary fixes (PTFs)  
The PTFs for the entire PSF/AIX product suite are available at the  
following IBM website:  
ftp.software.ibm.com/printers/products/psfaix/fixes/  
The PTFs for the entire InfoPrint Manager product suite are available  
at the following IBM website:  
ftp.software.ibm.com/printers/products/infoprint/fixes/  
Be sure to view the readme files provided at these sites. They  
describe what is in the PTFs and how to apply them.

DEFINING THE PRINTER TO THE HOST: TCP/IP ATTACHMENT  
OS/2 parameters  
This section describes the process and parameters to configure an  
OS/2 system to communicate with and print to your IPS printer using  
TCP/IP. This information applies both to Token Ring and Ethernet  
LANs.  
Software prerequisites – OS/2  
In an OS/2 system, in order to print on a TCP/IP-attached IPS directly  
through PSF, you need the following software:  
•
•
•
OS/2, Version 2.11 or higher  
PSF/2, Version 2.00 or higher  
TCP/IP For OS/2, Version 2.0 or higher  
The following may be required, depending on your PSF/2  
configuration:  
•
•
•
•
Communication Manager/2, Version 1.0 or higher  
DB2/2, Version 2.0 or higher  
IBM LAN Server, Version 3.0 or higher  
Novell Netware, version 3.11 or higher  
You must have these prerequisites installed before beginning the  
configuration process. Ensure that you are using the manuals for the  
correct software releases.  
Note: Installation of these products, and configuration activities not  
directly related to the IPS, are not discussed in this section.  
Network configurations – OS/2  
The IPS printer is supported in all the following configurations,  
provided that the software prerequisites are installed.  
•
•
•
Basic configuration in which the host computer running OS/2 is  
attached to a LAN using a standard Token Ring or Ethernet  
network adapter card  
Remote LAN environment in which there are data  
communication links between the host and the LAN-attached  
controller  
Configurations in which the LAN with the printer attached is  
connected to the host-attached controller using LAN devices  
such as routers.  
Note: There may be printer performance and throughput  
implications with some of these configurations. It is recommended  
that your network management group be involved with planning this  
installation.

desktop.  
7. To make this queue available to other users on the LAN, follow  
the procedures documented in either the Installation Cookbook  
for AS/400 or the Installation Cookbook for S/370.  
Note: Once the OS/2 Printer Queue object has been created on the  
Desktop, do not attempt to alter its values using its Settings dialog.  
Return to the PSF/f2 folder and the Control Panel to make any  
necessary changes.  
5. Test the printer connection in OS/2  
Test the printer by one of the following methods to ensure OS/2 can  
make a connection with it:  
•
•
Ping the printer from your OS/2 system to ensure the OS/2 can  
establish a connection with the TCP/IP-attached IPS.  
To verify that the OS/2 system can pass output to the printer,  
send a short ASCII text file from the host through PSF to print  
on the IPS. (Refer to your IPS Guide to Configuring and  
Managing the System for printing procedures.)  
Pinging the printer – OS/2  
To ping the printer, enter the following command on an OS/2  
command line:  
PING ip-address  
ip-address specifies the internet protocol (IP) address of the IPS  
printer (refer to the configuration worksheet, earlier in this section).  
If your ping is successful:  
Table E-26.Example of a successful ping – OS/2  
EZA0458I Ping V3R1: Pinging host 9.99.12.33  
(Use ATTN to interrupt)  
EZA0463I PING: Ping #1 response took 0.084 seconds.  
Successes so far = 1.  
Note: A successful ping usually indicates that the OS/2 system can  
communicate with the IPS. However, you could receive a successful  
ping even if the IP address of the TCP/IP-attached printer is a  
duplicate of another IP address.

DEFINING THE PRINTER TO THE HOST: TCP/IP ATTACHMENT  
If PSF/2 output for the IPS prints elsewhere:  
Follow these steps to determine whether the IP address of the printer  
is unique.  
1. Power off the printer.  
2. Wait at least five minutes for TCP/IP to clear the Address  
Resolution Protocol (ARP) tables.  
3. Enter the ping command again at the OS/2 system.  
4. If you receive a successful response to the ping command this  
time, there is a duplicate IP address. Consult your network  
administrator.  
If the ping is not successful:  
Table E-27.Example of an unsuccessful ping – OS/2  
EZA0458I Ping V3R1: Pinging host 9.99.12.33  
(Use ATTN to interrupt)  
EZA0463I PING: Ping #1 timed out.  
If your ping is not successful, verify the following:  
•
•
The printer is powered on.  
The cables are properly connected between the printer and the  
LAN.  
•
•
•
•
The Network Interface Card (NIC) in the printer is functioning  
properly. (Consult your Xerox service representative.)  
There is proper connectivity to the Multi-station Access Unit  
(MAU), if one is being used.  
The IP address used to define the printer in PSF is unique in  
the TCP/IP network.  
The IP address of the OS/2 system is unique. If not, consult  
your network administrator to resolve the address problem.  
Printing a test job  
To print a file to test the IPS printer, follow these steps:  
1. Enter the following command on an OS/2 command line:  
APRINT asciifile DESTINATION=xeroxdev  
where asciifile is the name of the test file to be printed (e.g.,  
C:CONFIG.SYS), and xeroxdev is the queue name specified  
for the PSF/2 queue definition.  
2. If an error message is generated, attempt to ascertain the  
reason for the error.  
3. If garbage is produced at the printer, verify that only valid device  
transforms have been defined, and that the printer options do  
not contain an illegal ASCII initialization string.  
4. Verify that the file to be printed is ASCII text and does not  
contain control characters, which may cause unexpected  
changes in the printer state.  
5. If no output is generated, check the following items:  
•
•
The file you are attempting to print exists.  
You have specified the correct queue name on the APRINT  
command.

E-33  
DEFINING THE PRINTER TO THE HOST: TCP/IP ATTACHMENT  
•
The OS/2 TCP/IP stack has been initialized (usually done  
during system bootup). The TCP/IP NETSTAT command  
has several options which may reveal network problems.  
•
•
The OS/2 queue is not in a “Hold” state.  
A data stream is arriving at the IPS. The IPS Printer Control  
Unit status on the IPS user interface screen should go from  
“idle” to “receiving” during reception of the data stream. If it  
does not, verify that the correct IP address and TCP/IP Port  
Number are specified to both PSF/2 and the printer.  
6. You may examine the contents of the spool queue by opening  
the queue object on the OS/2 desktop. An entry should appear  
during the execution of APRINT, then change to a status of  
“Printing” before disappearing from the queue.  
If OS/2 detects an error during printing, the entry is held in the  
queue with an appropriate status indicating the error. If the  
entry never changes status to “Printing,” either the queue or the  
entry is in a “Hold” state, or OS/2 is unable to contact the printer  
to initiate printing.  
If the entry enters a “Printing” state then disappears, but no  
output was produced on the IPS printer, check to see if the  
output was printed elsewhere. This would indicate a definition  
in either TCP/IP or PSF/2 that is incorrect, but still happens to  
match the device where the output appeared.  
Correcting for printer performance issues – OS/2  
Should you notice any printer performance problems—e.g.,  
throughput speed degradation, check the areas listed in the following  
table.  
Table E-28.Components to check for printer performance  
problems – OS/2  
OS/2  
On the OS/2 system, a system-changeable priority controls the  
resources allocated to printing activities. By default this is set to  
a median value, representing the relatively low priority printing  
has on a typical desktop system. In the case of a print server, it  
may be appropriate to increase this value to favor printing over  
any other activities that may be going on. To change this setting:  
1. Select the OS/2 System folder from the OS/2 Desktop.  
2. Select the System Setup folder.  
3. Select the Spooler icon.  
4. Select the Print Priority tab from the Spooler Settings  
dialog box.  
5. Print Priority values range from 1 to 189, with a default of  
95. Adjust the setting accordingly and close the Settings  
dialog box.  
Overcommitment of memory can lead to severe reduction of  
throughput under OS/2. If there is excessive paging activity (to  
the SWAPPER.DAT file) or the swap dataset becomes too large,  
consider increasing the physical memory on the print server.  
This often can lead to greater performance gains than, for  
example, use of a faster processor.

Table E-28.Components to check for printer performance  
problems – OS/2 (continued)  
Printer  
LAN  
Ensure that the Maximum Transmission Unit size (MTU) is as  
large as possible. A small MTU size increases the number of  
packets that are transmitted, allowing greater chances of  
degradation throughout the network. Increasing the MTU size in  
both TCP/IP for OS/2 and the IPS printer may improve printer  
performance.  
If the printer is on a LAN that also has a large number of other  
devices attached to it, the high levels of traffic on the LAN can  
cause printer speed degradation. Consider moving the printer to  
a LAN that does not have so much activity on it.  
LAN-to-host  
attachment  
If the speed of the link connecting the LAN with the printer  
attached to the OS/2 system is slow, this could be a bottleneck.  
Review your network configuration diagrams to look for any  
potential bottlenecks.

GLOSSARY-1  
GLOSSARY  
binary digit (bit)  
In the binary numbering system, either of the characters 0 or 1. The  
bit is the basic unit of information with which a computer works. It can  
take the form of a magnetized spot, an electric pulse, a positive or  
negative charge, etc. A number of bits strung together represents a  
character to a computer.  
Multipliers are:  
1 byte = 8 bits  
1 kilobyte (KB) or 1,024 bytes = 8,192 bits  
1 megabyte (MB) or 1,048,576 bytes = 8,388,608 bits.  
Computer space equivalents are:  
1.5 KB = about 1 single-spaced typed page  
30 KB = about 20 typed pages  
150 KB = about 100 typed pages  
bitmap  
Electronic definition of an image, comprised of a matrix of picture  
elements (pixels or dots), where a bit value of one means that the  
picture element is imaged, and a bit value of zero means that the  
picture element is not imaged. The number of picture elements in a  
square area is a function of the display device resolution.  
bit mapped  
bits per second (bps)  
blocking  
Display image generated bit by bit for each point or dot. A software-  
driven scanner is used to create characters and/or graphics.  
In serial communication, the instantaneous bit speed with which a  
device or channel transmits a character.  
Process of combining two or more records into a single block of data  
which can then be moved, operated upon, stored, etc., as a single  
unit by the computer.  
block length  
boot  
Number of characters or bytes contained in a block of data (the block  
is treated as a unit within the computer). Block length is usually  
invariable within a system and may be specified in units such as  
records, words, computer words, or characters.  
To load a program’s initial instructions of a program into the  
computer’s memory. These instructions then direct the loading of the  
rest of the program. Booting may require entry of a few commands at  
the keyboard or the flip of a switch to begin the process.  
break page  
buffer  
See header page  
Compartment of memory in which data is stored during transfer from  
one device to another. Useful for (1) accumulating data into blocks  
before storage or processing, and (2) for adjusting differences of
