CentreWare Internet Services (IS)
CentreWare Internet Services (IS)
CentreWare IS provides a simple interface to the embedded web server in any networked
Xerox printer that enables you to manage, configure, and monitor networked printers from
your desktop. CentreWare IS gives administrators easy access to printer status, configuration,
and diagnostic functions. It also provides users with access to printer status and special
printing functions such as printing saved jobs. With CentreWare IS software, you can access
and manage your printers over a TCP/IP network using a web browser.
CentreWare IS enables you to:
■ Check supplies status from your desktop, saving a trip to the printer. Access job
accounting records to allocate printing costs and plan supplies purchases.
■ Define a network printer search and view a list of printers using Printer Neighborhood.
The list provides current status information and allows you to manage printers
independent of network servers and operating systems.
■ Configure printers from your desktop. CentreWare IS makes it easy to copy settings from
one printer to another.
■ Define network, administration, and security features for a network printer.
■ Set up and use a simple web-browser-based printing system. Marketing collateral, sales
materials, business forms, or other standardized, frequently used documents can be saved
as a group with their original driver settings then reprinted on demand at high speed from
any user's browser. A printer with a hard drive is required to support these functions. In
some printer models, a DX configuration is required to support these functions.
■ Troubleshoot print-quality problems using built-in diagnostics.
■ Define a link to your local web server’s support page.
■ Access online manuals and technical support information located on the Xerox website.
Note: CentreWare IS requires a web browser and a TCP/IP connection between the printer
and the network (in Windows, Macintosh, or UNIX environments). TCP/IP and HTTP must be
enabled in the printer. JavaScript is required to access the pages in Printer Neighborhood. If
JavaScript is disabled, a warning message appears and the pages do not function properly.
To access CentreWare IS:
1. Launch your web browser.
2. Enter you printer’s IP address in the browser’s Address field.

Using a Startup Network Configuration File
Using a Startup Network Configuration File
This section includes:
■ About the Configuration File on page 2-2
■ Configuration File Requirements on page 2-2
■ Specifying the Location of the Configuration File on page 2-2
About the Configuration File
To configure printer settings or to perform other tasks, such as loading fonts, color tables, and
job patches, you can create a startup network configuration file. Every time the printer is
turned on or reset, the TFTP service on the TFTP server downloads the configuration file once
an IP address is acquired and confirmed in the printer. The TFTP service processes the data in
the configuration file as if it were a standard print job.
Configuration File Requirements
The configuration file must be:
■ A valid PostScript or PCL file that contains the appropriate PostScript, PCL, or PJL
commands. For a list of the Xerox-unique PCL and PJL commands, see Printer
Commands on page B-1.
■ Stored on a TFTP server that the printer can access over the TCP/IP network.
Specifying the Location of the Configuration File
To specify the location of the configuration file, do one of the following:
■ If the printer is connected to a TCP/IP network in a DHCP/BOOTP environment.
■ Use DHCP option 66 to specify the TFTP server IP address or hostname.
■ Use DHCP option 67 to specify the pathname of the configuration file.
For information on how to set these parameters, refer to your DHCP or BOOTP server
documentation.
■ If the printer is connected to a TCP/IP network in a non-DHCP environment, use
CentreWare Internet Services (IS).
Using CentreWare IS
1. Click the Properties tab and expand the Protocols menu.
2. Select TCP/IP.
3. Under TFTP Settings, set the following:
■ Enter the TFTP server IP address or hostname in the TFTP Server Name field.
■ Enter the pathname of the configuration file in the Boot File Name field.
4. Click the Save Changes button.

Walk-Up Printing Driver
The Xerox Walk-Up Printing Driver enables printing from a PC to any Xerox
PostScript-enabled printer. This is especially helpful for mobile professionals who travel to
multiple locations and need to print to different printers. Instead of installing the printer drivers
for each printer, you can download this driver from the web. Although it doesn’t enable access
to all printer-specific features, it does enable access to common printing features, such as
2-sided printing.
The driver contains basic features that are common to most of the PostScript-enabled printers,
including:
■ Portrait, landscape, and rotated landscape orientations
■ Single-sided or two-sided printing
■ Single or multiple pages per sheet (including booklet printing)
■ Paper or transparency printing
■ Page size selection
Note: For information about Xerox printer driver features that are available with specific
operating systems, see Printer Driver Features in the Advanced Features Guide for your printer
at www.xerox
.com/support.
Walk-Up Installation
The Xerox Installer enables quick and easy installation of the printer driver. The installer is
included on the Software and Documentation CD-ROM, supplied with the printer, and is
available on the web. When you run the installer, the main screen lists the Xerox printers of
that model discovered on the network or connected via USB. You can choose one of the
discovered printers, enter the IP address of the desired printer, or use Walk-Up Technology.
This technology is especially helpful when there is more than one Xerox printer on the
discovered printers list and you don’t know the printer’s IP address.
To use Walk-Up installation:
1. Select Walk-Up Technology, and then click the Next button on the main installer screen.
2. Walk up to the printer, select
Walk-Up Features, and then Select for Installation on the
control panel.
The installer connects the computer to the printer, completes the driver installation, and
then the printer prints a confirmation page.

Printer Driver Installation Features
Installation from the Printer’s Hard Drive or the Web
You can install the printer driver from the printer’s hard drive. This is especially useful if you
do not have the Software and Documentation CD-ROM.
Note: If the printer doesn’t have a hard drive but is connected to the internet, you can use this
procedure to automatically connect to the web to install the driver.
To install the printer driver either from the hard drive or the web:
1. Launch your web browser.
2. Enter your printer’s IP address in the browser’s Address field.
3. Click Support.
4. Select Software Installation on the left navigation panel.
5. Select the Printer Drivers link.
6. Do one of the following:
■ If you are a Windows user, click Windows Driver Installer to install the driver, and
then click the Install button to install the printer.
■ If you are a Macintosh user, click Macintosh Driver Installer to download the driver.
Auto-Configuring Driver
During installation, the bi-directional communication between the driver and a printer
connected to a network identifies the printer’s configuration (N, DN, DX, etc.) and the features
available with the configuration such as, duplexing capability, additional trays, or a hard drive.
The controls for settings, such as 2-sided printing, tray selection, and secure printing are
displayed or hidden/grayed out, and the mimic displays the correct printer configuration. This
driver feature prevents users from making incorrect selections during installation.

Job Accounting
Job Accounting
The printer stores information about print jobs. This information is stored in a log file that lists
job records. Each job record contains fields such as user name, job name, pages printed, job
times, and toner or ink used. Not all fields are supported by all printers. For more information
about the fields supported, go to the CentreWare IS Online Help or CentreWare Web Online
Help.
The actual values reported can vary depending on the protocol and printer driver being used
when each job was printed. For example, using NPRINT over NetWare provides the printer
with the most information about the job being printed. When using Windows and NetWare, the
job name is often LST: or LST:BANNER. Other jobs from other ports may provide even less
information about the job.
The log file is stored either in the printer’s RAM memory or on the hard drive if one is
installed in the printer. Xerox recommends that a hard drive be used for job accounting.
■ With a hard drive, the printer can store information about 5000 print jobs. The data in the
log file is saved when the printer is turned off or reset.
■ Without a hard drive, the printer can store information about the most recent 500 print
jobs. The data in the log file is not saved when the printer is turned off or reset.
Note: Data in job accounting records may be a security risk because the names of users, as
well as the titles, date, time, and length of printed jobs can be exposed. The content of print job
pages is not stored in the job accounting system.
Job accounting can be enabled or disabled through CentreWare IS and CentreWare Web.
To access job accounting information using CentreWare IS:
1. Launch your web browser.
2. Enter the printer’s IP address in the browser’s Address field.
3. Click Jobs.
