Guide to Submitting Jobs from the Client

2-3

To install Xerox Client Software, complete the following steps at
the client:

1. Ensure that the network software is installed and running.

2. If the host table file does not exist, create it.

3. Verify that the names and corresponding TCP/IP addresses

of the printer controller and the PC client itself are in the host
table file.

For Pathway Access clients, this filename is “hosts,” and it
resides in the \pathway directory or in the directory where
the Pathway Access software resides.

For FTP PC/TCP clients, this filename is “hosts.txt” and it
may reside in the \etc directory.

For PC-NFS clients, this filename is “hosts,” and it resides
in the \nfs directory.

NOTE: If the network configuration file does not define
the location of the host table absolutely to include the
drive specification, the user will be unable to print from
other drives.

4. Verify that the PC can communicate with the printer

controller, by entering one of the following:

ping

ftp

If the response is “unknown host,” go back to step 2.

5. Change the current directory to the \ directory.

6. Find the client directory and command file for your client

platform in the table below:
