Xerox DOCUPRINT N2125B PRINTERMAP [es]

Overview

You can send documents to your DocuPrint printer from your Macintosh in two ways:

From your Macintosh drivers

•

DocuPrint allows you to transparently send ASCII files and Page Description Language (PDL) files written in PostScript level 2 from your Macintosh to the printer. This capability is provided by AppleTalk, which enables you to print directly to network printers.

From Xerox Document Submission (XDS) client software

•

XDS client software is intended for users of Apple Macintosh computers running System 7.0 or greater. Your Macintosh must be connected to the Ethernet network communication utility using AppleTalk through EtherTalk Phase 2.

This reference card explains how to print from your Macintosh drivers.
