Xerox XDPE/400 (also known as EOMS I-Services) Support & Software User Guide

4 

This chapter describes the system requirements and migration issues that 

need to be addressed before installing XDPE/400.

Before you install XDPE/400, make sure that your AS/400 system and 

Xerox printer configuration are ready to work with XDPE/400.
XDPE/400 runs in IBM-supported OS/400 environments. When IBM 

releases new operating system release levels, XDPE/400 will be updated 

to ensure compatibility. Conversely, when IBM withdraws support for an 

operating system release level, Xerox also will withdraw support of that 

release level six months later. Contact your local Xerox representative or 

review the bulletin accompanying your latest maintenance to verify 

specific supported software release levels.

To install and run XPDE/400, your AS/400 system must meet these 

requirements: 
•

OS/400 version 4.4.0, 4.5.0, or 5.1. These IBM PTFs are required:

— For 4.4.0, no PTFs are required. 

— For 4.5.0, apply cumulative maintenance C0231450 and PTF 

SF63410.

— For 5.1, no PTFs are required.

•

Twinaxial workstation controller or TCP/IP

A minimum of 35 megabytes (MB) of available disk storage
