Print Job Submission
There are several ways in which to submit your job for printing:
• From your computer workstation (PC or Mac), using print drivers such as PostScript and Printer Command
Language (PCL), you can submit a document file to the print server queue. From the print server, you would
then submit the job to the press.
Note: Make sure the appropriate print drivers have been installed on your computer. Refer to your print
driver documentation or the Xerox web site for more information on how to download or install print
drivers.
• At any remote workstation, using a Hot Folders application to submit the document file to the print server.
• At the print server, importing/adding a document file to a print queue. Manage the job settings of the
document and then submit to the press for printing.

The following is a basic workflow for setting up a job and submitting it from the print server:
1. At the press, load the appropriate paper to be used for the job.
2. From the press UI, ensure that the Paper Tray settings/Tray Properties window matches the stock properties for
the paper you will use and that it is assigned to the same feeder tray where the paper is loaded.
