Allow non-chargeable jobs 
If this box is checked then a printer with 
defined prices, will print the job with a 0.00 
cost in the “Cost” field of the xcounter.log 
file. However, an entry of “NB=cost of job” 
in the “Features” field will be included for 
accounting purposes.  
• 
Verify entry in client code 
 
If this option is enabled, then the client 
database  
code as entered into the XPopup window 
is verified. If an incorrect value is entered 
into the XPopup window, an error will occur 
preventing the print job from printing. There 
are two XPopup display modes associated 
to this option. The “Normal” mode will 
display characters as they are typed. The 
“Display as password” mode will display an 
asterisk * for each character typed.  
XPopup – ID and password Options 
• 
Allow network passwords 
If this box is checked then both the internal 
XCounter user database as well as 
network user ID and password can be used 
to authenticate users for printing. If this box 
is not checked then only the internal 
XCounter user database will be used for 
authentication. 
XPOPUP.DBF Location
 
This is the location that the xpopup.dbf file resides. The file location of xpopup.dbf can 
be located on any network server. The default location for this file is SYS:PUBLIC on 
the server that XCounter is installed. If required, use the browse button to select a 
different path for this file 
Custom Database/Authentication DLL
 
XCounter provides an internal database for the client/matter codes or user 
authentication information. This internal database work very well in most situations, 
however, the need may arise that would require XCounter to attached to an existing 
customer database. XCounter provides this program hook area for a custom written 
DLL file that can be used to attach the XPopup.exe to an alternate database. This 
alternate database can be used for client/matter or a user authentication. Please 
contact Xerox for information regarding this custom DLL
