WARNING

Adjustments, use of controls, or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous light exposure.

The Xerox DocuColor printers are certified to comply with the performance stan dards of the U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare for Class 1 laser products. Class 1 laser products do not emit hazardous radiation. The DocuColor printers do not emit hazardous radiation because the laser beam is completely enclosed during all modes of customer operation.

The laser danger labels on the system are for Xerox service representatives and are on or near panels or shields that must be removed with a tool.

DO NOT REMOVE LABELED PANELS OR PANELS NEAR LABELS. ONLY XEROX SERVICE REPRESENTATIVES HAVE ACCESS TO THESE PANELS.

1. System overview

This chapter provides an overview of the features and functions of the Xerox DocuColor 2060 NPS/IPS.

Functional overview of the NPS/IPS

The NPS/IPS printers support the processing and printing of PDL and ASCII jobs fr om ne twork workstations, as well as IPDS jobs from an IBM host. Supported PDL formats are PostScript levels 1 and 2, HP PCL 5e, and TIFF.

Your organizat ion may print only IPDS jobs, netw ork PDL jobs, or jobs from both environments.

NOTE: The DocuColor 2060 NPS/IPS does not support printing of color PCL jobs.

DocuColor 2060 NPS/IPS printers support:

• Full-color printing

• Printing at a rated speed of up to 60 ppm in 600 dpi

• Printing simplex and duplex

• Processing and printing of network PDL jobs and IPDS jobs without soft boot to switch modes

• Multiple weights, sizes and types of paper (refer to the “Supplies” appen dix for details)

• Optional high-capacity feeder

• Optional high -capacity stacker

• Optional high-capacity stacker stapler

• Sixth Sense, a diagnostic tool that provides system assessment and problem analysis.

DocuColor printer

The entire DocuColor NPS/IPS system includes the printer (also known as an IOT or print engine), printer controller, printer interface, and all appropriate software. “DocuColor printer” or “printer” refers to the base printer e ng ine (IOT) only, without the printer controller and interface.

The printer co ntroller includes two processors, DVD-ROM drive, diskette drive, keyboard, mouse, and a liquid crystal display (LCD) flat panel monitor. The printer controller accepts the print job from the client workstat ion or host, converts the files i nto page images, and sends the page images to the printer. The user interface at the printer controller allo ws you to perf orm tasks such as monitoring job status, pr ioritizing jobs, and configuring the system.

The printer interface cables provide high-speed data transport and communication between the printer controller and the printer.

The printer accepts data from the printer co ntroller and prints the document according to the print options specified by the user. The printer also provides paper stacking and optional sampling.

NPS and IPS printing configurations

The NPS/IPS ca n process network PDL and IPDS jobs concurrently.

To support the submission of jo bs from a variety of hosts, configuration possibilities include:

• The same T ok en Ring or Ethernet connection can be used for both IPDS (IPS) and PostScript (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.

• Bus and tag attachment through the channel interface board can be used for IPDS jobs from a channel-attached host; Token Ring or Ethernet connectio n can be use d for jobs submitted over the network.

1-2 Installation Planning Guide

NPS/IPS concurrent printing

SNMP support

System overview

The Xerox NPS/IPS can receive a variety of data streams including IPDS, PostScript Levels 1 and 2, PCL 5 e, TIFF, and ASCII. The system automatically senses the type of job and processes it appropriately.

When your system is printing IPDS jobs, it can accept network PDL data streams in the background. When network PDL jobs are printing, only one IPDS job can be queued.

The system provides functionality to export the state of a printer using the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), thus allowing printer management software to monitor and report on

the printer state. SNMP is a standardized communications protocol for managing

arbitrary networked devices from different vendors, such as workstations, servers, printers, or routers. The information to be communicated is presented as variable name/value pairs, defined in a set of standardized management information bases (MIBs). The MIBs define the legal variables, their types, and possibly a fixed set of values.

SNMP was designed to facilitate managing a heterogeneous set of networked devices that communicate using TCP/IP. Specifically, it addressed management of the network itself and the network traffic betw een th ose devices. Over time, MIBs were defined to expand the types of devices that could be managed using SNMP. For example, MIBs were defined specific to managing a wor kstation or a printer.

The system currently supports variables defined in the following MIBs:

• MIB-II (RFC 1156) This MIB defines the basic set of variables any device

running TCP/IP should make accessible . It includes, for a particular device, variables for information such as a system description, information about each of the network interfaces present on the device, and information abou t all the IP datagrams sent and received by the device.

Installation Planning Guide 1-3

System overview

• Host Resources MIB (RFC 1514) This MIB defines variables useful in managing a “host”

system. In this context, a host is a computer that is directly used by human beings and that communicates with other similar computers attached through a network. The Host Resources MIB includes information such as how long the system has been up, descriptions of the processors and attached storage devices, and possibly information about software running on the host.

• Printer MIB (RFC 1759) This MIB defines information useful in managing a printer. It

includes information about the physical status of the printer, such as the number of input trays, the media loaded in them, and the numbe r and types of marking en gines inclu ded in the printer.

Most variables in these MIBs are supported in a standard way, as described in the standard documentation, except that writing to read/write variables is not supported. All variables are treated as read-only. In all cases, the NPS/IPS SNMP implementation supplies textual information only in English.

IPP support

The system supports the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP), which allows you to:

• Add the printer to your PC directly as an Internet printer with a URL, rather than indirectly as an lpr-connected local printer.

• Use an IPP client to access the printer. A limited subset of IPP operations is supported; query the IPP client for details.

1-4 Installation Planning Guide

IPDS environment

Host environments

System overview

The system emulates an IB M A FP G roup 3 p age printer with t he Advanced Function Image and Graphics (AFIG) option and can print in all 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 Mana ge r can furnish the TCP /IP support for the printer.

NOTE: There is no minimum host operating system software level required. The minimum PSF level needed to support full color is v.3.2.

The NPS/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 yo ur system will be channel-attached, the printer controller requires an additional component—a channel interface board and channel cable connector box that serve as an interface between the IBM host and the printer controller.

• Through a Token Ring or Ethernet interface using TCP/IP.

NOTE: Your system supports only one other connectivity option in addition to Ethernet. For example, Ethernet and channel connection or Ethernet and Token Ring.

NOTE: A transmission ra te of at least 16 megabits per second should be used with a Token Ring interface. (Overall performance depends on network traffic and job density.)

Networks

Users create their documents at the networked client PCs or workstations using software applications that generate PDL output. When ready to print, users submit the documents to the printer controller.

The customer needs to supply one or more of the following networks:

• Ethernet local area netwo rk (LAN) running TCP/IP, AppleTalk, or Nove ll NetWare network protocol.

• Token Ring running TCP/IP, Novell, or AppleTalk network protocol.

Both network client workstations and the IBM host can communicate with the controller over a network.

Ethernet LAN

Users of networke d client workstatio ns may send print jobs to the DocuColor NPS/IPS prin ter o v er the Et hernet LAN using TC P/IP, AppleTalk using EtherTalk Link Access Protocol (ELAP), or Novell NetWare 3.1x as the network protocol.

Installation Planning Guide 1-9

System overview

Regardless of printing or transmission protocol, the Ethernet connection to the printer controller must be

compatible with the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.3 standard.

Token Ring

Users of network client workstations may send pr int jobs to the printer over Token Ring networ k using TCP/IP, Novell 3.x, or AppleTalk network protocol.

Regardless of printing transmission protocol, the Token Ring connection to the printer controller must be compatible with the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.5 standard.

Multiple network devices

Multiple network devices ma y be insta lled on the same controller . The default network device that ships with your controller is a 100 Mbit Ethernet connection. You may install other network devices by installing additional network cards, provided each card has a unique network to which it connects. For example, if you use a Tok en Ring netwo rk connection, y ou hav e the option of using the default Ethernet device as a secondary network.

If you choose to install multiple network devices on your controller, the following parameters apply:

• You must sel ect a prim a ry network device and designate any others as secondary. The primary network device does not have to be the default Ethernet device that ships with your controller; it can be any of the network devices installed.

• You must run the TCP/IP protocol on the primary network device. You may also r un TCP/IP on other network devices. For each network device running TCP/IP, you must specify a unique IP address and IP netmask. For the primary network device, you must specify the HostName and router IP address. The HostName for any secondary devices is created from the name chosen for the primary device.

NOTE: You may not use the controller as an IP router. Consequently, the router IP address must be on the primary network devices network only.
