Guide to Submitting Jobs from the Client

Installing Xerox Client Software for UNIX

You install Xerox Client Software on client workstations using the
ftp command to log on to the printer controller, retrieve an
installation command file, and execute it. This procedure
automatically downloads the software.

NOTE: In order for jobs submitted by Xerox Client software to
print, Xerox job ticket processing must be enabled. This is
specified during NPS/IPS installation or by using the Configure
utility.

Also, in order to download the client software, FTP capability
must be enabled on the controller. This is specified during NPS/
IPS installation or via the Configure utility. If security is a
concern, FTP capability can be disabled after the software is
downloaded by using Configure. For more information, see the
chapter “Using utility commands” in your Guide to Configuring
and Managing the System.

At the client workstation, log on to the client as root and perform
the following steps:

1. Verify that the printer controller name and TCP/IP address

are located in the /etc/hosts file.

2. If an entry containing the printer controller name and TCP/IP

address does not exist, add it unless you are using an NIS or
DNS name service.

3. To verify that the client workstation can communicate with the

printer controller, enter one of the following utility commands
at the > prompt:

•

ping <printer controller name>

•

ftp <printer controller name>

If the response to these commands is “unknown host,” go
back to step 1.

4. Change directories to the user home directory.

NOTE: You can use any directory to execute the command
file, but using the home directory is preferred.
