print drivers available for the device to support all the popular operating systems. The Xerox print
drivers allow you to use the specific features available on your device.

release your jobs.
If Accounting has been enabled you may have to enter login details at the print driver before you
can send your job.

selected for your job is shown in the Paper box, this default is set by your System Administrator.
