Configuring the Xerox Print Driver
To configure the Xerox Print driver after installing it on the FaxPress Xerox Interface workstation or a user’s workstation, follow these steps:
|
1.
|
From the Windows desktop, open your Printer Settings: |
Start>Settings>Printers
|
2.
|
In the window, right-click on the Xerox system icon and select Properties. |
|
3.
|
In the Xerox system window, click the Printing Preferences button to open the window. |
Typically, the default settings work for most environments, with one exception. If Network Accounting is enabled on your Xerox WorkCentre Pro, you must specify the default User ID and the System ID in the Device Settings tab (Accounting>Setup) of the printer driver properties. If your situation requires special settings, make them with caution. Castelle recommends leaving the advanced options set to their defaults unless you’re certain the changes will work without disrupting the system.

Click OK to save your changes. |

Test the printer from the workstation, and test printing a fax or fax notification. |
To set up the Xerox system so it prints faxes and/or fax notifications in special colors see the next section.
Setting Up Paper Colors on the Xerox System
The FaxPress Xerox Interface supports the use of more than one paper color for printing. This feature would, for example, allow one color paper to be used for fax print-outs, and another color to be used for fax notices. This procedure assumes that you have 2 trays with different colored paper in your Xerox system and also requires the FaxPress Xerox Interface service is configured and running.
To set up your print drivers for multiple paper colors, follow these steps:
|
2.
|
Rename the extra printer drivers for each color. For example, if you have a driver you want to use for Red paper, first choose |
Start>Settings>Printers
|
3.
|
In the Printers window, select the new driver you have created and add RED to the name; so Xerox WorkCentre Pro 35 PCL6 would become Xerox WorkCentre Pro 35 PCL6 RED. |
|
4.
|
Rename each of the drivers for the different colors in this way. |
|
5.
|
Open the window for each driver, then click the Printing Preferences button to open the Printing Preferences window. |
|
6.
|
Set the paper color for the driver as shown. Click OK in the Preferences screen, and OK in the Driver Properties screen. |
|
7.
|
Next, open the FaxPress Xerox Interface configuration utility (Start>Programs>FaxPress>Add On Products>Xerox Interface>Configuration). |
|
8.
|
In the tab, select a user, for example, Xerox1, then click the Edit button. This step and those that follow require that you have installed the FaxPress Xerox Interface software. See for details. |
|
9.
|
In the User to Email address Mapping dialog box you can set up each printer setting for Print Incoming Fax and Print Outgoing Fax notification with a different print driver. |
|
10.
|
To set the RED driver for Incoming faxes, click the Printer Setting button for Print Incoming fax. Then choose the driver that ends in RED from the Printer Name pull-down menu and click OK. See the procedure in for details. |
|
11.
|
Repeat this procedure for the other color driver, this time clicking the Printer Setting button for Print outgoing fax notification. |
Incoming faxes and outgoing fax notifications will now print out on different colored paper.
