1. Overview

1.1 Features

Xi Repro System provides the interface between a large digital copier (hereafter

called “copier”) and computers to function as a plotter controller system.

Xi Repro System allows conversion and storage of scanned image data in a file;

handles tasks (including set number assignment and collating) on a computer when

printing plots; and produce copies of sets in collated order. Xi Repro System saves

the user the inconvenient, traditional tasks of plotting and collating paper documents.

Other features include:

• Easy-to-use Windows NT Graphical User Interface.

• TIFF files and HPGL/2 files can be added to a set.

• Reports of system usage.

Overview

1.2 System configuration

The system configuration is shown in Figure 1-1.

Xi Repro System is to be installed on a computer running Windows NT. When

connected to a copier via a PCI interface cable, a computer running this software

performs as a plotter server. In such a system configuration, this computer is called

the Local Client.

Computers that have this software installed and use the copier connected to the

Local Client are called Remote Clients.

The Local Client also provides Remote Client facilities.

1.3.3 Xi Repro System

Xi Repro System consists of the following four applications:

1. Client

The Client application provides Xi Repro System’s main facilities. Namely:

• Create a new set.

• Scan files into a set.

• Add to or delete from a set TIFF files, HPGL/2 files or other image files.

• Assign pen settings and plotting instructions to each file.

• Change printing order.

• Preview the contents of an image file before printing.

• Assign stamps to be applied to each plot.

• Print the requested number of copies of a file within a set.

• Delete a set.

2. Admin

The Admin application is a system management tool for defining each device

interfacing with Xi Repro System. This application also serves as a report

preparation tool to show system usage.

3. Stamp

The Stamp application is a tool for creating stamp files. Xi Repro System uses

such stamp files to place stamps onto copies of a plot that are being printed.

4. Server

The Server application is a tool for controlling the plotter/scanner and is installed

only on the Local Client. This application relays print/scan jobs from the Local

Client or print jobs from Remote Clients to the copier.
