Minimum System Requirements
The minimum recommended requirements shown are for nominal loads. Additional RAM, additional or faster processors, faster and/or larger hard
drives may be necessary to achieve optimal speed and throughput. Use the minimum specifications provided as a starting point. Final PC configuration
is an end-user decision based on budget, workflow and speed requirements.
All configurations assume the customer will require and specify some form
of network connectivity such as 100-base Ethernet. Although it may be possible to operate the RIP with less than the minimum, Xitron recommendations are based on providing the customer with a system to meet their production demands.
MACINTOSH CONNECTIVITY
WINDOWS XP OPERATING SYSTEM AND APPLETALK
All systems described are compatible with Macintosh chooser-level printing
environments except those using Windows XP. All platforms configured with the Windows XP operating system require AppleTalk connectivity software to function as a chooser-level device. This software is available from Xitron.
WINDOWS XP OR WINDOWS 2000/PRO AND MACINTOSH FILE SHARING
If your workflow requires Macintosh file-sharing capability (i.e.: for use with hot folders, or FirstPROOF clients), with Macintosh OS 9.2 or older you must use software such as Miramar’s PC MacLAN. Windows 2000 Server operating system has Macintosh file sharing built-in.
