Overview
Tape drives overview
The DocuPrint 100/115/135/155/180 EPS supports several types 
of tape drives that may be used to load resources (forms, fonts, 
etc.) or to submit offline LCDS print jobs.
The 26-track cartridge tape drive, provided with your Xerox 
DocuPrint 100/115/135/155/180 EPS, can be used only to import 
resources to the system disk. 9-track and 36-track tape drives can 
be used to submit print jobs to the DocuPrint EPS, or load 
resources.
The DocuSP Tape Client software enables transmission of data 
from a cartridge or open reel tape to the DocuPrint EPS controller 
via the Socket gateway.

tape drive (QIC) (for 
resource loading 
only)
The 4 GB external SCSI quarter inch cartridge (QIC) tape drive is 
an external device provided with the Xerox DocuPrint 100/115/
135/155/180 EPS. The cartridge tape drive connects to the 
controller through the SCSI port on the processor back panel. 
Like the diskette and DVD drives, this tape drive is not an input 
source for print jobs or for any other data or application. You can 
use it to load resource files, and the service representative uses it 
to load system maintenance files or to save diagnostic 
information.

drive to load resources and to submit offline LCDS print jobs.
