Since you are upgrading your DocuPrint 100/115/135/155/180 
EPS, many of these parameters have already been determined. 
However, you should refer to “Preparing for installation” in the 
Installation Planning Guide for specific information.
DocuPrint IPS Extension
The following is an overview of the tasks associated with setting 
up your system to accept IPDS data from an IBM host. Some 
tasks that typically need to be performed prior to installation are:
Install Token Ring to the system location, if applicable.
Install Ethernet to the system location, if applicable.
Define the printer to your host as an AFP Type 1, Group 3 
printer.
Specify a superuser password.
Defining the printer to a host
In order to send data from the IBM host to the printing system, you 
must define the printer on your host. The IBM host to which you 
are connecting the printing system, as well as the type of 
connection used, determines how the printer is defined on the 
host.
For example, you may connect the printing system to an AS/400 
host through a Token Ring network, or to a PC with OS/2 software 
via Ethernet.
For detailed information about defining the printer to your specific 
host and connectivity requirements, refer to “Preparing for 
installation” in the DocuPrint NPS/IPS Installation Planning Guide.
Installation process
To efficiently install and set up the NPS/IPS Extension option on 
your 100/115/135/155/180 EPS system, certain activities need to 
be performed by you and by Xerox.
Xerox is responsible for the physical installation of the NPS/IPS 
Extension hardware and IPS/NPS software. The steps in the 
installation process typically occur in the following order:
1. Xerox personnel install the NPS/IPS software and the NPS/
IPS Extension hardware. 
2. Xerox personnel obtain a software license authorizing you to 
use the IPS/NPS software.
