To print from a Linux workstation, install either a Xerox
®
print driver for Linux or a CUPS (Common
UNIX Printing System) print driver. You do not need both drivers.
Xerox recommends that you install one of the full-featured custom print drivers for Linux. To locate
drivers for your printer, go to www.xerox.com/support/drivers.
If you use CUPS, ensure that CUPS is installed and running on your workstation. The instructions for
installing and building CUPS are contained in the CUPS Software Administrators Manual, written and
copyrighted by Easy Software Products. For complete information on CUPS printing capabilities, refer
to the CUPS Software Users Manual available from www.cups.org/documentation.php.
