XEROX DOCUPRINT 96/4635/180 IPS GUIDE TO CONFIGURING AND MANAGING THE SYSTEM
In routine operation
When powering off the system, follow this sequence:
1. Make sure no print jobs are running. Take the IPS offline from
the host by selecting Offline from the System Options menu on
the IPS main window.
2. Use one of the two methods below to shut down the Printer
Controller. Both methods immediately stop all processes
running on the Printer Controller and on the printer, and return
to the Boot prompt for the operating system.
•
With the pointer in the desktop background area of the
screen (not in a window or on an icon), press the
right
mouse button. On the workspace menu that displays, select
Shutdown.
•
With the pointer in the IPS main window, select Shutdown
System from the System Options menu.
3. In the System Shutdown Confirmation window, click Confirm.

System Shutdown Confirmation window
Caution:
Shut down the Printer Controller only when no print
jobs are running and the IPS is offline from the host.
4. Power off the display monitor.
5. Power off the printer.
Note:
Unless the IPS will remain powered off for an extended
period, or is to be moved, it is not necessary to power off the
printer. Powering off the processor also powers off the printer,
when the system is set for Remote. Setting the system for
Remote reduces the time needed to subsequently power the
system on again.
6. Power off the Sun workstation processor.
7. Power off the HCU (if operating in channel-attached mode).
