Online Help

Product Name Book Name -1

This is the DocuSP Help Library.

The DocuSP Help Library contains information on how to use the

DocuSP graphical user interface (GUI) features and functions for

setting up and printing jobs, setting up the printer, controlling

system-level preferences, and managing fonts, security,

accounting, and many other activities. Use the Help menus or

buttons located on the screens and dialogs to access additional

information as needed.

Throughout the Help Library, you will find cross-references and

links to other areas of the helpset. These links can be divided up

into 3 general categories:

•Links from lists at the beginnings of chapters: These links

are placed so that a user who is browsing through the Help

can quickly locate topics of interest.

•Links from procedures to sub-routines: These links are

placed within ordered lists in order to break up long

procedures into several shorter ones. This also enables the

user to avoid working though subroutines that are not of

interest to him or to her. When you click these links, you will

need to click the back button on your browser to return to the

main procedure.

•More Information... links: These links are placed to take

nonessential information out of the main flow of the

procedures, and may be ignored at the user’s discretion.

Clicking these links will open a pop-up window which will

disappear when you click outside the pop-up window.

About DocuSP Print Services

The DocuSP Print Services software provides a graphical user

interface (GUI) to the printer management, job management, and

system administration functions of your Xerox printing system. In

addition, depending upon which DocuSP printer you have

purchased, the DocuSP GUI enables you to manage queues,

adjust color image quality, and control scan and copy functions.

The DocuSP Print Services Graphical User Interface

The DocuSP Print Services software enables you to use a

graphical user interface (GUI) to control all of the features and

functions for your Xerox printing system.

The GUI consists of windows, tabs, and dialogs that can be

accessed through buttons and menus. In addition, the user

interface displays status and error messages which provide

feedback on job processing.

Online Help is available through Help Contents or by selecting the

Help buttons on the various dialogs. Additional information is

available through the customer documentation that is provided on

CD-ROM with your system.

Windows and Dialogs

The DocuSP Print Services GUI is designed to enable quick and

direct access to most types of data. Each management category

(Job Manager, Printer Manager, etc.) consists of a primary

manager window which displays a table of information

summarizing the category. For example, when you open the Job

Manager window, you will see a list of jobs and relevant

information about those jobs.

Use the following guidelines when working in windows and

dialogs:

• To open primary manager windows, select the desired icon on

the left side of the DocuSP GUI.

• To view a different type of data within a service or manager

window, select the tab of the topic you wish to view.

standard using International Color Consortium (ICC) profiles.

Color management tools are used to convert between device-

dependant RGB (Red, Green, Blue) and CMYK (Cyan, Magenta,

Yellow, Black) color spaces to a device independent color space in

order to match colors by adjusting for differences between device

color gamuts. The Color Manager contains multiple levels of color

management, tailored for both novice and skilled users.

located on the left side of the DocuSP GUI. You can access the

Color Manager helpset through the following link: Color

Management.

Disk Usage Indicator

The Disk Usage Indicator icon allows operators and system

administrators to monitor any of the DocuSP System Disk

Partitions: Root, System Data and User Data. The icon, which is

located at the top right corner of the GUI, shows three states of

disk usage: Normal, Warning and Error.

Hovering the cursor over the Disk Usage Indicator icon will display

a tool tip which presents the disk usage percentage for each

partition. Percentage indicators change dynamically to show the

amount of used and free space.

Double-clicking on the Disk Usage Indicator opens a window that

contains information about disk size, used and free space, disk

usage percentage, partition name or path and the current state of

each partition.

Disk Usage Indicator threshold values are defined as follows:

•Root:

– Normal Range: 0-84%

– Warning Range: 85-89%

– Error Range: 90-100%

•System Data and User Data:

– Normal Range: 0-70%

– Warning Range: 71-89%

– Error Range: 90-100%

NOTE: Percent values may fluctuate +/-5% based on system/

drive/printer or other adjustments that are made during the

software development cycle.

Warning and Error messages are displayed as follows:

•Warning: Root disk free space is low. A green icon

indicates a Warning range.

•Error: Root disk free space is dangerously low. A red icon

indicates an Error range.

If a disk partition reaches a warning or error disk usage range, a

fault message window opens and a fault message also displays in

the Status area. Follow the instructions to address disk partition

issues. Select [Close] to exit the fault message dialog.

The Clean Files option allows you to remove waste files that are

created by system crashes. A warning icon will inform you of

which partition to address.

The Scan Files option allows the System Administrator to delete

scan files to free up disk space.
