While the job is printing, you can check the job status by
selecting the [Administration] button and view the information.
Refer to “Checking job, printer, and queue status,” later in this
chapter.
Printer and queue setup
NOTE: The printer discovery file must be set up on your
workstation before setting up the printer and queue. If the printer
discovery file was not added to your workstation during
installation, select the Preferences option from the Options menu
and add the printer discovery file.
Printers and their queues for XDS Plus printing are set up
automatically when XDS Plus is installed and run. XDS Plus
detects all printing systems with DocuSP controllers running
DocuSP 3.X that are connected to your workstation. You record
the network addresses of these printers in a file called
“printer.disc,” after you install XDS Plus on your workstation.
When you select [Change Printer...] on the XDS Plus window,
the names of the printers that are listed in the printer discovery
file are displayed in the [Printers] section of the Change Printer
window and on the Print Monitor tab.
Selecting a printer and queue
The Change Printer window enables you to select a printer and a
queue for the job that you want to print, and to view the printer
and queue properties.

Queues sections
The Change Printer window contains two sections:
• [Printers]: The [Printers] section lists the printers that the
system detects in the printer discovery file when XDS Plus is
started. It also lists an Unconnected printer and a queue for
supported printers. Refer to “Printer and queue setup,” earlier
in this chapter, for further information about this file.
