Using Your Printer in Linux 
You can use your machine in a Linux environment. 
Getting Started
The supplied CD-ROM provides you with the Xerox’s Unified Linux Driver 
package for using your machine with a Linux computer.
The Xerox’s Unified Linux Driver package contains printer and scanner 
drivers, providing the ability to print documents and scan images. The 
package also delivers powerful applications for configuring your machine and 
further processing of the scanned documents.
After the driver is installed on your Linux system, the driver package allows 
you to monitor a number of machine devices via USB simultaneously. The 
acquired documents can then be edited, printed on the same local or network 
machine devices, sent by e-mail, uploaded to an FTP site, or transferred to an 
external OCR system.
The Unified Linux Driver package is supplied with a smart and flexible 
installation program. You dont need to search for additional components that 
might be necessary for the Unified Linux Driver software: all required 
packages will be carried onto your system and installed automatically; this is 
possible on a wide set of the most popular Linux clones.

If the CD-ROM does not automatically run, click the   icon at the bottom 
of the desktop. When the Terminal screen appears, type in:
If the CD-ROM is secondary master and the location to mount is /mnt/
cdrom,
[root@localhost root]#mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom

driver package windows applications, such as Unified Driver 
Configurator or Image Manager.
Uninstalling the Unified Linux Driver
1.When the Administrator Login window appears, type in root in the Login 
field and enter the system password.

Using the Unified Driver Configurator
Unified Linux Driver Configurator is a tool primarily intended for configuring 
Printer or MFP devices. Since an MFP device combines the printer and 
scanner, the Unified Linux Driver Configurator provides options logically 
grouped for printer and scanner functions. There is also a special MFP port 
option responsible for the regulation of access to an MFP printer and scanner 
via a single I/O channel.
After installing the Unified Linux driver (see Installing the Unified Linux Driver 
on page  6-32), the Unified Linux Driver Configurator icon will automatically be 
created on your desktop.
Opening the Unified Driver Configurator
1.Double-click Unified Driver Configurator on the desktop.
You can also click the Startup Menu icon and select the Unified Driver 
Configurator.

Sharing Ports Between Printers and Scanners
Your machine can be connected to a host computer via the parallel port or 
USB port. Since the MFP device contains more than one device (printer and 
scanner), it is necessary to organize proper access of “consumer” applications 
to these devices via the single I/O port.
The Xerox Unified Linux Driver package provides an appropriate port sharing 
mechanism that is used by the Xerox printer and scanner drivers. The drivers 
address their devices via so-called MFP ports. The current status of any MFP 
port can be viewed via the MFP Ports Configuration. The port sharing prevents 
you from accessing one functional block of the MFP device, while another 
block is in use.
When you install a new MFP printer onto your system, it is strongly 
recommended you do this with the assistance of an Unified Driver 
Configurator. In this case you will be asked to choose I/O port for the new 
device. This choice will provide the most suitable configuration for MFP’s 
functionality. For MFP scanners I/O ports are being chosen by scanner drivers 
automatically, so proper settings are applied by default.
Configuring Printer Properties
You can change the various properties for your machine as a printer using the 
properties window provided by the Printers configuration.
1.Open the Unified Driver Configurator.
If necessary, switch to Printers configuration.
2.Select your machine on the available printers list and click Properties.
3.The Printer Properties win-
dow opens.
The following five tabs 
display at the top of the 
window:
•General: allows you to 
change the printer location 
and name. The name entered 
in this tab displays on the 
printer list in Printers 
configuration.
•Connection: allows you to view or select another port. If you change the 
printer port from USB to parallel or vice versa while in use, you must re-
configure the printer port in this tab.
•Driver: allows you to view or select another printer driver. Click Options 
to set the default device options.
