Workstation-to-Server (Client-Server): Print jobs are processed and spooled on your

computer and then sent to the printer to be printed. This model requires XSUS to be
installed on both the server and on the computer.

Server Based: Print jobs are sent unprocessed from your computer and are spooled

on the server and then sent to the printer. This model requires XSUS to be installed
on the server only. Individual computers can print to the printer by setting up a generic
lp or lpr queue pointing to the queue on the print server.

Network Information Service (NIS) Based: NIS uses a printer configuration map

on the server. When new printer queues are added to a print server, only the
configuration file in the master NIS server must be updated. NIS clients can then
print to any of the queues listed on the server map without setting up local queues.

Note

Consult your UNIX or Linux operating system manual for more information on how to
set up NIS-based printing.

XeroxHPUXXPXX_x.xx.xx.tgz to support HP workstations.

-

XeroxLinuxi386XPXX_x.xx.xx.tgz to support Linux environments.

-

XeroxSolarisXPXX_x.xx.xx.tgz for Sun Solaris systems.
