XEROX Corporation has unveiled its new Document Centre System, a family of programmable office systems that allow users of networked personal computers to perform document and distribution services from their desktops.
Designed as open systems that are both network citizens and walkup devices, the system offer standard document features such as printing, finishing, copying and faxing, and advanced services such as document status, print queue management and device status.
The system is driven by the Rochester, N.Y., company's software, Xerox CentreWare, that allows users to manage the various steps of the document cycle--document input, management and output--through a common interface. The point-and-click program provides users with navigational access to the capabilities of the new Xerox systems as well as devices that are compatible with Novell NetWare standards, such as Hewlett-Packard laser printers.
The initial release includes two models:
The Document Centre System 35, designed for larger workgroups with up to 50 seats on a network, has a monthly duty cycle of up to 2,000,000 pages. It processes and prints files as a single entity, freeing the network and PC to move on to new tasks. Output is precolated by the system and delivered as document sets, which can be duplexed and stapled on the System 35.

The Document Centre System 20 can accommodate up to 20 seats on a network and has a recommended monthly output of up to 75,000 pages. It also offers what Xerox describes as the industry's first secure printing capability wherein sensitive documents can be stored in memory until the recipient enters a personal identification number at the device's control panel.
