Terminology You Need to Know
Network: A system of linked devices that share resources, such as Internet access and printers, connected through a
common wireless (Wi-Fi) or wired (supported by Ethernet cords) network router.
Wi-Fi Direct: This is a feature on your printer/MFP that when enabled, emits a wireless signal that Wi-Fi capable
devices (e.g. phones, computers) can directly connect to for printing. You can connect your device to the printer’s
wireless signal just like you would connect to an Internet router’s Wi-Fi signal.
Computer’s Operating System (OS): This is the software version that your computer is running. Your operating
system determines which print drivers and Xerox applications you will use for printing and scanning.
Utility, or Utility Pack: This is a set of files and software that must be downloaded to your computer to setup your
printer. After being downloaded, the files may need to be installed manually on your PC, or will be automatically
installed with the help of an imbedded “wizard” or executable file. The package contents vary based on your PC’s OS,
but they generally contain drivers for printing, scanning and faxing. They may contain applications that allow you to fax,
scan, or access your printer’s advanced settings from your desktop.
CentreWare Internet Services (CWIS): This is your printer’s web interface where you can manage advanced settings.
You access it by entering your printer’s IP address in your web browser. Your printer must be on the network or have
Wi-Fi direct enabled in order to access CWIS.
