1.Overview
Your Document Services Platform (DocuSP) product has just
been installed or upgraded. This document will familiarize you
with the functions and new features available with this system.
User Documentation
The user documentation for your DocuSP-based products
consists of the following:
♦ Getting Started: the Getting Started manual is this
document, which is delivered as part of the user guide kit.
This document explains the product for new customers
and details the new features and feature changes in the
DocuSP software for current customers. It also lists the
notes and caveats for working with the DocuSP software,
and gives directions on how to access and print the user
guides.
♦ User documentation on CD ROM: The CD ROM user
guides contain the following:
• The Adobe Acrobat Reader executable for Windows,
Macintosh, and Solaris platforms. By loading the
Acrobat Reader, you can access and view the user
guides delivered in Adobe Acrobat PDF format.
Instructions for loading the Acrobat Reader software
are in Chapter 5 of this document. Procedures for
printing the user guides from the CD ROM are located
in the Printing the User Guides section, which follows
this section.
• A folder containing the DocuSP user guides. These
guides are designed to be used with the DocuSP
controller regardless of the attached printer. The
DocuSP controller user guides consist of:
o System Guide (system.pdf): Contains system
level information covering security, accounting,
backup and restore procedures.
o Getting Ready for the DocuSP Installation
(getready.pdf): Contains installation worksheets
to be filled in by the customer working with a
Xerox representative in preparation for the
DocuSP software installation. The PDF version
provided on the CD allows the DocuSP user to
print additional copies of this document as
necessary.
1

o Using the lp utilities for Solaris (using lp.pdf):
Contains the syntax and commands for using
the Unix lp print command to submit jobs to the
DocuSP controller.
o Using the lpr utilities for DOS and UNIX (using
lpr.pdf): Contains the syntax and commands for
using the command line lpr from either UNIX or
DOS to submit jobs to the DocuSP controller.
♦ Product specific folder(s): One or more product specific
folders are available on the user guide CD ROM. The
folders contain documents such as the printer Operator
Guide, Installation Planning Guides for electrical and
space requirements, plus additional documents as
necessary for the smooth operation of your printer. Access
the folder that matches the printer type you are using.
♦ DocuSP Online Help: The DocuSP software contains an
on-line Help system accessed from the various Help
buttons and pull-down menus on the DocuSP interface.
NOTE: The DocuSP Online Help has not been updated for
DocuSP 4.2. Therefore, the Online Help screens will be
labeled DocuSP 4.1 Online Help. Additional features not
documented in the Online Help are documented in the
DocuSP 4.1 to 4.2 Differences document.
In addition, a PDF version of the content of the on-line
Help is available on the DocuSP by accessing the Help
pull-down menu on the DocuSP user interface (UI). To
print on-line:
1. On the DocuSP UI, select the Help pull-down menu
and select Print Help Documentation.
2. Select a queue from the pull-down menu, and
select OK.
3. Send the documentation to a hold queue in order to
program the job properties, or send the job to a
queue with the following job properties set as
overrides:
− Sides imaged = 2-sided
− Finishing = none
− Paper stock = 8 1/2 x 11 or A4; drilled if the
document is to be placed in a binder.
4. In Job Manager, locate the job and program the job
properties. Then, release the job to print.

Printing the user guides
Use the procedure below to print the user guides located on the
User Guides CD ROM.
1. Be sure that Adobe Acrobat Reader, Version 4 or later, is
loaded on your personal computer. It is also strongly
recommended that the Xerox custom print driver for your
printer be installed on the personal computer. Refer to
Chapter 5 of this document for instructions on loading the
Adobe Acrobat Reader from the User Guides CD ROM.
2. Place the User Guides CD ROM in the CD ROM driver of
the computer.
3. Open the CD ROM and any required folders. Locate the
document you wish to print.
4. Using the Adobe Acrobat Reader, you can view the
document, print the entire document, or print selected
pages of the document.
5. Select File: Print and select the printer to which the
document is to be sent for printing. You can program the job
properties at either the personal computer or at the DocuSP
controller.

2. DocuSP 4.2 New Features and
Enhancements
All DocuSP – Based Products
General feature enhancements
DVD Installation
DocuSP 4.2 introduces the ability to install DocuSP software
from DVD. Previously, DocuSP required CD-ROM media for
installation. CD-ROM media will continue to be supported for
installations, specifically those systems that do not include a
DVD-ROM drive. However, by using DVD media instead of
CD media, the CSE will need to perform fewer manual steps at
install time, and will save, at minimum, the time required to
swap CDs.
NOTE: As mentioned above, DVD install media are only
available for systems that contain a DVD-ROM drive. In
addition, the DocuSP Color Supplemental Software is not
yet available on DVD.
PPML update
DocuSP now accepts PPML zipped jobs with a Xerox XPIF
ticket attached.
DocuSP version numbering
Starting with this release of DocuSP, the version number
format is changing. Previous releases were numbered
04.1x.xx. The new numbering scheme is 42.xx.xx, where the
x represents a specific build of the software. A higher number
simply means a more recent build of the software.
5

Backup/Restore enhancements
The Backup and Restore GUI’s operability is improved in
DocuSP 4.2.
♦ Configuration Backup and Restore provides the following
improvements:
• Previously used settings in the Configuration Backup
window will be saved across DocuSP restarts, and are
persistent across window closings and reopenings.
• The ability to backup/restore DocuSP license data is
provided.
• The ability to perform Configuration Restore on an
unlicensed system is allowed, which enables a system
that is unable to retrieve its license data to be restored;
then the license data can be reentered.
NOTE: This capability is not available on Nuvera
systems.
♦ System Backup and Restore: Previously, the System
Backup default destination was displayed as the root
directory. Also, System Restore was not displayed as one
of the choices in the Backup/Restore window. With this
feature, System Backup/Restore provides the following
improvements:
• The default directory destination for backup is
/XRXbackup.
• A System Restore option is provided in the
Backup/Restore window. When selected, the System
Restore option will display a window containing
instructions for performing a System Restore.
Layout enhancements
DocuSP 4.2 provides the user with a new template, the Z-sort
template. In addition, the Z-sort, or ZIP-sort capability is
extended to all multiple-up options. This addition allows
multiple-up (e.g. 4-up, 6-up, 9-up, etc.) to be cut and stacked
in a predefined order to maintain postal sort order.
The output may be either single-sided or double-sided, and the
layout style numbers the pages and images appropriately so
that they retain their order when cut and stacked.
In the specific 2-Up case, 2-Up Flip right can be programmed
by selecting “Repeated” and checking the “Flip Right” box. In a
similar fashion, the legacy 2-Up Cut and Stack option can be
programmed by selecting “Cut and Stack,” and checking the
“Cut On Binding Edge” box.
