Controller overview
2. Controller components and options
This chapter describes the comp onents and options a v ail able f or
the Xerox DocuPrint 100/115/135/155/180 EPS controller.
The controller receives data from a mainframe host or a
workstation client, processes the data, and sends it to the printer.
The controller also provides the printer with print data and
commands, and receives status information from the printer.
The controller consists of a high performance Sun workstat ion
processor r unning Solaris software. Also resident on the
controller is the DocuSP software, which manages all printing,
diagnostic, and administrative functions on the printing system.
Accessing
DocuSP remotely
(Remote
Workflow)
The DocuSP software includes a full color graphical user
interface (GUI). Using the GUI, you set up and configure the
system, set up and implement system o ptions, a nd manage print
jobs.
Remote Workflow, a remote graphical user interface, is av ailable
for instal lation from a CD. The remote GUI allows y ou to ma nage
your DocuSP-based printers fr om a single PC or Sun
workstation. You may set your pr efere nces from the remote clie nt
to disable or enable some or all connections.
Remote Workflow allows you to configure the printers that you
want to manage, and provides real time status of the printers.
You may switch betw een the printers th at you are managing, but
you can display only one printer GUI at a time.
The Remote Workflow GUI looks and functions the same as the
local DocuSP GUI on the controller.

• 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 weight s of the printer components are listed in
this section, along with diagrams, to help you visualize the sizes
and total space requir e me nts.
NOTE: There must be a 78 inch / 198 cm vertical clearance
throughout the entire area. In addition, 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.

Space planning guidelines
When determining your space requirements and planni ng 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.
two feeder/stackers with bypass transport
Installation Planning Guide 6-15
Printer requirements and specifications
Before installation, you must consider the following:
• Clearance space re quirements wh ere yo u intend t o 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
• 78 inches / 198 cm of v ertical cleara nce throug hout t he entire
area
• 24 inches / 61 cm of exclusive operator area in front of each
component
NOTE: There must be a total of 50 inches / 126.9 cm of
clearance space in front of the printer.
Shared space between components
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 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 equipmen t.
• 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.
6-16 Installation Planning Guide
Printer requirements and specifications
NOTE: Finishers that are attached to your bypass tran sport may
occupy sha red space w ith Xerox equipment. Howe ve r, they must
be removable to allow servicing of the printer feeders and
stackers. Consult with your Xerox representative to ensure all
the requirements are met.
Shared space configuration diagrams
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-toback position. This allows the printers to share the entire 36
inches /

Face-to-face
shared space
The following figure shows the two printers facing each other.
The printers share 26 inches / 30.5 cm of the general service
space, but not the exclusive operator area in front of each
printer. There f or e , the p rinters shou ld be sep arat ed b y 24 inch es
/ 61 cm, plus 24 inches / 61 cm, plus 26 inches / 30.5 cm. This
allows for the entire operator space for each printer, plus the
shared general service area of
26 inches / 30.5 cm.

Installation Planning Guide 6-19
Printer requirements and specifications
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 leve l, find another
location for the printer.
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 fr om left to right, or approximately 0.7
inches / 1.8 cm with the printer tilting from back to front.
If you move the printer after its initial installati on, it is your
responsibility to make sure that the printer can be leveled
properly . If y ou do not ha v e the le veling 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. T o determine access, ask the
following questions:
• Does the equipment need to go up or down a stairwell? How
wide is the stairwell?
• Do you have an elevator, if the equipment is to be located
above or below 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 sh ould be delivered?
You need to review these issues before or during 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.

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.

To use the tables:
1. Measure th e 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.
The printing system is delivered with the printer, inverter feeder/
stacker, and each feeder/stacker as separate modules. If
necessary, the printer can be separated into tw o pie c es for ease
in moving. The large r 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.

6-26 Installation Planning Guide
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 op ti on al 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 squa re is equal to
12 by 12 inches / 30.5 b y 30 .5 cm. The curved dotte d lines in the
corners of the space perimeters indicate the corners that ma y be
rounded off while still maintaining the required clearance space.
Printer requirements and specifications
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 considerin g the
various factors involved in planning the appropriate location for
your printing system.
When determining your space requirements, remember to
consider all of th e components you plan to have installed. If you
have a bypass transport or input ena blement 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.

Cable lengths
7. System connections
This chapter provides cable requirements for your Xerox
DocuPrint 100/115/135/155 /1 80 EPS. It also provides
information about channel-attaching your printer. To ensure all of
your cable requirements are met, work with your Xerox
representative.
Cable lengths are important considerations in planning your
lay o ut , as co m pon en ts ca n b e se parated only up to th e le ngth of
the data inte rface cables that connect them.
Cables supplied with the printer are long enough to meet the
needs of most installations. Some of these cables are specific
lengths to confor m to engineering and safety standards.
Interface cable The printer and controller can be separated up to the length of
the interf ace cab le s that co nnect th em. The printer and controlle r
are connected by a 20 foot / 6.1 meter cable, or an optional 50
foot / 15.2 meter cable.
Power cables The printing system power cable lengths are as follows:
Table 7-1. Power cable lengths
Power cable Length
Controller 8 feet / 2.4 m
Printer 15 feet / 4.5 m

Cable locations
WARNING
Using an inappropriate alternate cable may degrade the
performance of your equipment and ma y 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 cabl e is rout ed inside th e equipmen t to
connect with interior power or data receptacles.
To run the cables beneat h the flooring, y ou m ust kno w whe re the
cables enter and exit the printer. The following diagrams shows
that location marked with an X.
Figure 7-1. Cable enter/exit location (top view)
1. Back of printer area
2. Printer with feeder/stacker modules
3. Front of printer area
All power cords attach to the back of the printer. Power cord
distances from the left end of the printer (as you face it) are:
• DP 100, 115, and 135–distance from end of printer:
14 inches / 356 mm
• DP 155 and 180–distance from end of printer:
– Cord 1: 36 inches / 914 mm (with ELCI)
– Cord 2: 23 inches / 584 mm (with ELCI)
