Evaluate Installation
Setup and installation are the fi rst steps customers must take before realising
the benefi ts of adopting a high-performance colour printer.
set up and connect to your network? Are print drivers installable by your employees,
and are there fl exible installation methods for large and small organisations, or for
organisations with specifi c requirements?
How the Phaser 6360 exceeds
the installation requirement:
Printer Setup
The Phaser 6360 ships with easy-to-
follow, graphic-based instructions on how
to remove the printer from its packaging,
assemble it and prepare it for printing.
Printer setup is straightforward: The
Phaser 6360 ships with preinstalled
toner cartridges, so the only consumable
to install is the all-in-one imaging unit.
Once the printer is plugged into power
and attached to your network, it will
automatically be assigned an IP address
by your network — you'll be ready to
install print drivers and start printing.
Print Driver Installation
The Phaser 6360 print driver installation
process is designed to provide an easy
and consistent installation process from all
software sources, regardless of platform.
The Phaser 6360 print driver installation
process can be initiated from multiple
locations:
• Phaser 6360 Installation CD
• CentreWare IS Embedded Web Server
• Xerox.com download
The wizard-based driver installation
process offers you three methods for
selecting the printer you want to install:

• Use Xerox Walk-Up
Technology

direct you to go to the Phaser 6360
you want to install. On the printer front
panel, simply select "Walk-Up Features"
and "Select for Installation," and
the rest of the process is completely
automated. You don't need to know the
printer name or its IP address.
• Select from the Following Discovered
Printers — If you know the name of the
printer you want to install, select it from
the list of discovered printers, and that
printer will be installed.
• Enter Printer's IP address — If you know
the IP address of the printer you want
to install, enter it here, and that specifi c
printer will be installed.
The Phaser 6360 printer driver installation
application automatically discovers what
printer confi guration you are installing—
as well as the presence of features like
two-sided output and additional paper
trays — and makes it available in your
print driver.
For small organisations, this automated
installation process makes it easy for your
employees to install their print drivers
with or without IT assistance. For larger
organisations, the IT department can
simply send an email to end users with
a link to CentreWare IS or the Xerox.com
website, enabling them to launch the
print driver installer and follow the same
simple installation process.
