Using CentreWare Software
CentreWare Internet Services (IS)
CentreWare IS provides a simple interface that allows you to manage, configure, and monitor
networked systems from your desktop using an embedded web server. CentreWare IS gives
administrators easy access to system status, configuration, and diagnostic functions. It also
provides users with access to system status and special printing functions such as printing
saved jobs. With CentreWare IS software, you can access and manage your systems over a
TCP/IP network using a web browser.
CentreWare IS enables you to:
■ Check supplies status from your desktop, saving a trip to the system. Access job
accounting records to allocate printing costs and plan supplies purchases.
■ Define a network multifunction system search and view a list of systems using Printer
Neighborhood. The list provides current status information and allows you to manage
devices independent of network servers and operating systems.
■ Configure systems from your desktop. CentreWare IS makes it easy to copy settings from
one system to another.
■ Set up and use a simple web browser based printing system. Marketing collateral, sales
materials, business forms, or other standardized, frequently used documents can be saved
as a group with their original driver settings then reprinted on demand at high speed from
any user's browser. A system with a hard drive is required to support these functions. In
some system models, a DX configuration is required to support these functions.
■ Troubleshoot print-quality problems using built-in diagnostics.
■ Define a link to your local web server’s support page.
■ Access online manuals and technical support information located on the Xerox web site.
Note
CentreWare IS requires a web browser and a TCP/IP connection between the system and
the network (in Windows, Macintosh, or UNIX environments). TCP/IP and HTTP must be
enabled in the system. JavaScript is required to access the pages in Printer Neighborhood.
If JavaScript is disabled, a warning message appears and the pages do not function
properly.
