The Xerox Mobile Print Solution allows customers to print office documents and photos from their mobile device. The customer can either submit their documents using email or the Xerox Print Portal Application (for IOS or Android devices). While printing, the customer can select copy count, 1-sided / 2-sided, color / black & white, and stapling print options. Documents can be sent directly to a printer, or for sensitive content the customer can send documents (via email or app upload) to the Mobile Print server and print when they arrive at the printer. This is all done without the need for print drivers or special software. The Xerox Mobile Print Solution works with EIP-enabled and non-EIP enabled MFPs, as well as non-Xerox devices. There are various methods for submitting and uploading files and printing documents, which are outlined below. You can upload documents by: Sending an email with your office documents or photos to the Xerox Mobile Print server Using the Document upload feature in the Xerox Print Portal App How to print uploaded documents: From the Xerox Print Portal App, select Documents > Print Options, and then select Print. From a Mobile Print EIP-enabled device, enter your confirmation code, select documents to print and print options, and then select Print. How to send directly from a smart device to a printer: Using your smart device, select on a document and via the Open-With Xerox Print Portal App, select your printer and print options, and then select Print. Note The documents uploaded from the Print Portal App and the documents emailed are combined and are available to print from both methods.

At any time, change the default user messages, timer settings and proxy server settings as needed.
Timer Settings
Access the Properties tab of the Administration window and then the General subtab from the left panel. There are three timers whose settings you can adjust: Auto Delete Job Timer - How long to keep jobs in the system Auto Exit Timer - How long to display the user interface on the printer device Polling Rate for Incoming Email - How often the system will check for incoming emails that contain jobs Refer to the Properties section of the Adminstration Tool User Interface chapter on how to revise these timer settings.
2-13
Confirmation Message
The Confirmation Message text box allows you to customize the message that the user receives in an email after submitting their job. This email contains the confirmation number required to print the job. You can customize the default confirmation message and add customized confirmation messages for the languages that Xerox Mobile Print Solution supports. If using EIP devices, you must include return email address for the confirmation message. 1. Under the Properties tab, select the Messages subtab from the left panel.
2-14
2. In the Messages area, change the default message in the Confirmation Message box to the message desired. Tip A best practice is to add text to the confirmation message, before the confirmation number, that tells the user how long their job will stay in the system. For example, As a safeguard, jobs are automatically deleted if not printed within 12 hours of submission. Any jobs not printed within this time period will need to be resubmitted. Change the number of hours to the value set in the Auto Delete Job Timer. 3. Make sure that somewhere in the text [####] appears. This is required since without it, no confirmation number would be transmitted in the email. 4. If you have finished making changes on this page, click Apply.
Proxy Server
These email proxy server settings are found under the Proxy Settings subtab under the Properties tab. A proxy server for Mobile Print intercepts connections between the sender and receiver to provide increased performance and security. The proxy server is used where a high level of security is required. Use the settings in this area to configure connection to the proxy server.
2-15
To ensure that an internal IP address or URLs with a fully qualified domain name bypasses the proxy server, add the addresses to the Bypass proxy for local (intranet) addresses field.
Requires Authentication
If the proxy server requires authentication, select the Requires Authentication checkbox to enable the authentication controls and complete the Authentication Mode, Domain, Username, and Password fields in this area. The Requires Authentication checkbox is only available if Enable Proxy Server is selected.
Authentication Mode
If you know the authentication mode that the proxy server requires, select it from the Authentication Mode menu. The default setting is Auto.
Domain
Type the domain name of the username used for authentication.

Accounting Overview
The Xerox Mobile Print Solution allows you to print Mobile Print jobs when accounting is enabled at the Multifunction Printer (MFP). The Xerox Mobile Print Solution supports both Xerox Standard Accounting and Xerox Network Accounting. Refer to the following tables and locate the MFPs used in your printing environment. If all of your printers are identified (x) in the second column, no additional configuration is needed in the Xerox Mobile Print Solution Administration Tool. Leave the Accounting Method at the default, None, which allows Mobile Print jobs to print as expected at accounting-enabled MFPs. If any of your printers are identified in the third column, go to Chapter 3 for configuration instructions. Note Make sure that all MFPs are at the recommended software level. Refer to the Supported Printers table in the Reference and Troubleshooting Guide.
