Printing a Document
Printing from Applications
There are a lot of Linux applications that you are allowed to 
print from using Common UNIX Printing System (CUPS). You 
can print on your machine from any such application.
1From the application you are using, select Print from the 
File menu.
2Select Print directly using lpr.
3In the LPR GUI window, select the model name of your 
machine from the Printer list and click 
Properties.
4Change the printer and print job properties.
Click.
The following four tabs display at the top of the window.
•
General - allows you to change the paper size, the paper 
type, and the orientation of the documents, enables the 
duplex feature, adds start and end banners, and changes 
the number of pages per sheet.
•
Text - allows you to specify the page margins and set the 
text options, such as spacing or columns.
•
Graphics - allows you to set image options that are used 
when printing images/files, such as color options, image 
size, or image position.
•
Device: allows you to set the print resolution, paper 
source, and destination.
5Click Apply to apply the changes and close the Properties 
window. 
6Click OK in the LPR GUI window to start printing.
7The Printing window appears, allowing you to monitor the 
status of your print job.
To abort the current job, click 
Cancel.
Printing Files
You can print many different types of files on the Xerox machine 
device using the standard CUPS way - directly from the 
command line interface. The CUPS lpr utility allows you do that. 
But the drivers package replaces the standard lpr tool by a 
much more user-friendly LPR GUI program.
To print any document file:
1Ty p e  lpr  from the Linux shell command 
line and press 
Enter. The LPR GUI window appears.
When you type only 
lpr and press Enter, the Select 
file(s) to print window appears first. Just select any files 
you want to print and click 
Open. 
2In the LPR GUI window, select your printer from the list, 
and change the printer and print job properties.
For details about the properties window, see page 31.
3Click OK to start printing.

Duplex Printing 
(
Phaser 3600/DN only) 
You can print on both sides of the paper. Before printing in the 
duplex mode, decide on which edge you will be binding your 
finished document. The binding options are:
•Long-Edge Binding: Which is the conventional layout used in 
book binding.
•
Short-Edge Binding: Which is the type often used with 
calendars.

File menu. 
2Select the Layout. 
3Select a binding orientation from Two Sided Printing 
option.
4Click Print and the printer prints on both sides of the 
paper. 
CAUTION: If you have selected duplex printing and 
then try to print multiple copies of a document, the 
printer may not print the document in the way you 
want. In case of  Collated copy , if your document has 
odd pages, the last page of the first copy and the first 
page of the next copy will be printed on the front and 
back of one sheet. In case of  Uncollated copy, the 
same page will be printed on the front and back of one 
sheet. Therefore, if you need multiple copies of a 
document and you want those copies on both sides of 
the paper, you must print them one at a time, as 
separate print jobs.
