XEROX DIGIPATH PRODUCTION SOFTWARE

NEW FEATURES

Standalone Quick Print

The Quick Print application is now available as a Standalone

Quick Print application. Contact your Xerox Representative for information on ordering the Standalone Quick print application.

The Standalone Quick Print application is a full featured print utility that allows the comprehensive programming of printing attributes for a broad array of Xerox Production Printing and

Publishing devices.

The Standalone Quick Print application allows you to program basic printing features, selective page programming, notes and special instructions, page inserts, covers, image quality adjustments, full Xerox Job Ticketing, and more. The selected printer determines the extensibility of the printer features displayed. You also have the ability to concatenate jobs together to form a single job with a single job ticket or multiple jobs with similar printing attributes for each job. Mixed jobs of varying print ready formats may also be concatenated.

The Standalone Quick Print application provides a method to access print ready documents and submit them as one job for printing.

The system requirements for the DigiPath 4.x Standalone Quick Print application are as follows:

733 MHz CPU

Windows XP Professional operating system

256 MB RAM minimum

200 MB of free hard drive space for application installation

Free hard drive space for application use

NOTE: The space required for application use is dependent on the size of the jobs.
