Printing with xeroxprint

Xerox has its own print command. You can use the following command:

Printing from a Linux Workstation

To print from a Linux workstation, install either a Xerox

print driver for Linux or a CUPS print driver.

You do not need both drivers.

Xerox recommends that you install one of the full-featured custom print drivers for Linux. To locate

drivers for your printer, go to www.xerox.com/office/drivers.

If you use CUPS, ensure that CUPS is installed and running on your workstation. The instructions for

installing and building CUPS are contained in the

CUPS Software Administrators Manual

, written and

copyrighted by Easy Software Products. For complete information on CUPS printing capabilities, refer

to the

CUPS Software Users Manual

available from www.cups.org/documentation.php.

Installing the PPD on the Workstation

1. If available, download the Xerox

PPD for CUPS from the Drivers and Downloads page on the Xerox

Support website.

2. Copy the PPD into the CUPS ppd/Xerox folder on your workstation. If you are unsure of the location

of the folder, use the Find command to locate the PPD files.

3. Follow the instructions that are included with the PPD.

Adding the Printer

1. Verify that the CUPS daemon is running.

2. Open a Web browser and type http://localhost:631/admin, then click Enter or Return.

3. For User ID, type root. For password, type the root password.

4. Click Add Printer and follow the onscreen prompts to add the printer to the CUPS printer list.
