Print and Fax Driver Overview

A print and fax driver makes documents created with specialized software applications (word processing, spreadsheets, graphics) compatible with a specific printer. Each type of printer requires unique commands to print correctly and to enable special features. For these reasons, different types of printers require their own printer drivers to operate correctly.

With CentreWare printer drivers, you can print from your workstation to a Xerox system in a network environment. CentreWare drivers contain a variety of feature options that you can use to customize your print jobs.

Integrated fax capabilities vary with each Xerox system. Not all Xerox printers support both network printing and LAN fax submitted from the desktop. Check your product-specific literature for more details. Other network fax options can be configured with different models, using third-party software applications.

Print and Fax Driver Overview

CentreWare Printer Drivers

There are two kinds of views for CentreWare printer drivers:

Enhanced view

Standard view

Enhanced View

Printer drivers in enhanced view display the feature options on tabs within the driver. These printer drivers are designed specifically for Xerox products. CentreWare drivers in enhanced view are available for Windows 9x workstations. They are also available for NT/2000/XP drivers when Internet Explorer 5.01 or higher is installed on your workstation.

NOTE: The driver graphic is representative. Driver options and mimics will vary slightly depending on the operating system and model.

Printer Driver—Enhanced View

Standard View

Printer drivers in standard view conform to the Microsoft Windows driver standards. The options are displayed in tree form, which is generic across many software products. With CentreWare printer drivers in a Windows NT, 2000, or XP environment, you can choose between enhanced and standard view by making your selection on the Device Settings tab.

Types of Printer Drivers

The CentreWare printer drivers are available in PostScript 3, PCL 5e, and PCL 6 (XL) printing formats.

PostScript

PostScript gives you greater ability to scale and manipulate images; it offers more precision with high-end graphics. PostScript also provides you with different types of error-handling and font substitution options.

PCL

PCL (Printer Command Language) generally has fewer advanced features than PostScript. However, using PCL enables you to process most jobs faster.

Requirements

Printer Drivers

The minimum hardware requirements for the CentreWare printer drivers vary based on the specific printer driver you are installing. At the most, you will need 14 MB of available hard disk space for any of the CentreWare Windows printer drivers.

Internet Explorer 5.01 or higher installed on the workstation for NT, 2000, and XP drivers using Enhanced view.

Xerox Windows Driver Installer

The Xerox Windows Driver Installer consists of two utilities: the Xerox Printer Configuration Utility and the Xerox Printer Installation Utility.

These utilities require:

Administrator privileges in NT/2000/XP

Internet Explorer 5.0 or higher

Microsoft TCP/IP Printing installed and running to connect Peer To Peer in a Windows NT environment

Service Pack 2 installed on Windows 2000 systems

Service Pack 4 installed on Windows NT systems

1-2 Installing Windows Printer Drivers

Network Print Configurations

Peer To Peer

In a Peer To Peer environment, a printer driver is installed on a workstation that is connected to a printer. The printer driver resides only on the workstation. In this setup, workstation users maintain their own printer defaults and configurations, allowing different printer settings for each user.

Through a Network Print Server

In a network print server environment, a printer driver is installed on a server and shared with other servers and workstations on the network. The printer driver is downloaded to the workstation from the server. In this network setup, a Network Administrator generally maintains the printer defaults and configuration.

Network Print Configurations

1-3

Installing Printer Drivers on Windows Networks

You have three ways to install a Xerox printer driver and other components in Windows environments.

Direct Installation

Use the Xerox Printer Installation Utility to install Xerox printer drivers quickly and easily for your network printers. If you are a system administrator or user who has the CentreWare Print and Fax Drivers CD or knows the network location where the contents of the CD has been saved, you can configure settings for several printer drivers at one time and install the drivers directly onto a PC or print server.

Distributed Installation

Copy the contents of the CentreWare Print and Fax Drivers CD to your network. (See Locating Installation Files on the CD on page 1-38.) Then open the Xerox Printer Configuration Utility, set up a configuration file, and distribute a packet of installation files containing the configuration file to users to install the printer drivers on their PCs. (See Distributed Installation on page 1-13 to perform a distributed installation.)

Point and Print Installation

Copy the contents of the CentreWare Print and Fax Drivers CD to your network. You can then install the drivers locally, modify the device settings and document settings (Preconfiguring Default Driver Settings (Windows NT/2000/XP) on page 1-27) and copy them to the server for enterprise use (Point and Print Installations on page 1-26).

1-4 Installing Windows Printer Drivers

Direct Installation

With the Xerox Printer Installation Utility, you can configure and install printer drivers with a Peer To Peer connection or through a network print server connection.

In an NT/2000/XP environment, you need administrator rights to run the Xerox Printer Installation Utility. To install drivers onto a network server you must run the Xerox Printer Installation Utility at the network server. You cannot install the drivers remotely.

Direct Installation with a Peer To Peer Connection

To configure and install printer drivers with a peer to peer connection:

1Insert the CentreWare Print and Fax Drivers CD into the CD-ROM drive. The AutoRun program displays the available selections.

–or–

If the AutoRun is disabled on your workstation, open My Computer and doubleclick the CD-ROM drive. Double-click the Setup.exe file. The AutoRun program displays the available selections.

2Chose a language and click OK.

3Click Print and Fax Drivers > Install Your Windows Printer Driver. The Xerox Printer Installation Utility opens.
