Or, you can contact Technical Support at 1-800-835-6100.
To use the TekColor color corrections and other printer features, use one of the following methods:
- UNIX workstations: PhaserPrint software for UNIX workstations functions like a printer driver for selecting printing options, and provides fast screen copy printing.
- VMS workstations: PhaserSym software and EasyCopy/X for VMS workstations provides proper communication with the printer.
- The menus on the printer's front panel let you select printing options; refer to Using the Front Panel for instructions on using the front panel.
- Downloadable utility files let you select printing options; refer to Using Printer Utilities for instructions.

UNIX workstations
For UNIX environments, Xerox offers the optional PhaserPrint software. PhaserPrint for UNIX software offers driver-selectable printer options and provides fast, raster file and screen copy printing to Xerox color printers.
PhaserPrint for UNIX software is available for these workstations:
|
Workstation
|
Operating System
|
|---|
|
Sun
|
SunOS 4.1.3, Solaris 2.3, 2.4
|
|
SGI
|
IRIX 4.0, 5.2, 5.3
|
|
HP 9000 700/800
|
HPUX 9.0.5

AIX 3.2
|
|
DECstation
|
Ultrix 4.0, 4.4
|
|
DEC Alpha
|
OSF/1 3.0 and 3.2
|
PhaserPrint for UNIX software works with the workstation's native spooling system to print PostScript files and raster files in these formats: Sun Raster Format (SRF), xwd, SGI RGB, and many others.
The printer's CD-ROM contains a demonstration copy of PhaserPrint for UNIX software and an on-line instruction guide in the UNIXDEMO directory. If you would like to purchase a licensed version of PhaserPrint software, contact your dealer, local Xerox office, or in the United States, call 1-800-835-6100.
VMS workstations
To print from VMS workstations, the optional PhaserSym utility, a VMS print symbiont, functions as a driver for selecting printing options, and as a queue manager. PhaserSym software is compatible with DEC workstations running VAX/VMS version 5.0 and later. PhaserSym software communicates over the printer's optional TCP/IP Ethernet interface, and is required for proper communication with the printer.
The optional EasyCopy/X software provides fast raster image printing to Xerox printers.
