Launch XeroxSmartStart.exe \u2013 this requires elevation to an administrator account.<br \/>\n2. Agree to the EULA<br \/>\n3. Xerox Smart Start will scan for printers<br \/>\n4. Select the printer you want to install and choose either Quick Install or Advanced Install.<br \/>\na. If you select Quick Install you are done!<br \/>\nb. If you select Advanced Install then Xerox Smart Start will present you with a list of options: Print System, Driver PDL, Scanner Driver Options, and Printer Name. Once you have selected the options you want, select Install to start the installation process.<br \/>\n5. If Xerox Smart Start did not find the printer you want to install select Don\u2019t See Your Printer.<br \/>\na. Enter the printer\u2019s hostname or IP address and select Continue. If Xerox Smart Start detects your printer it will take you to the Advanced Install screen.<br \/>\n6. When the installation finishes Xerox Smart Start will display a confirmation screen. You can Install Another Printer or exit by selecting Done. You also have the option to print a test page.<\/p>\n<p>Please refer to the Smart Start User Guide PDF below for a list of compatible Xerox products, and for details and recommendations to optimize your experience.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/drivernew.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Xerox-Smart-Start-Guide.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Xerox Smart Start User Guide (PDF)<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Scanner Driver for Windows<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If there are problems with the installation and work of the scanner, it is recommended to install this software (Web-based Printer and Scanner Driver Installer).<\/p>\n<p>Version: 5.523.0.0<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1CJ8WBC1bMNojVOL7Whad7LcJ_3QXent2\/view?usp=sharing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Download file from Google Drive<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-58660 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/drivernew.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Xerox-Smart-Start.webp\" alt=\"Xerox Smart Start\" width=\"43\" height=\"43\" \/><br \/>\nDescription: Automatically downloads and installs both the printer driver (PostScript\/PCL5\/PCL6) and scan driver (TWAIN). Microsoft WHQL certified.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>For Xerox ColorQube 9301, Xerox uses the universal print driver <strong>Xerox Global Print Driver (GPD)<\/strong>. It supports Windows 11, Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, and Windows 7, but it is distributed as a ZIP archive without an installer (.exe). That\u2019s normal: inside you\u2019ll find the driver in <strong>.INF<\/strong> format, which you install using standard Windows tools.<\/p>\n<h2>1) Where to download the drivers (official Xerox pages)<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Xerox Global Print Driver (PS and PCL6)<\/strong> \u2014 downloads page:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.support.xerox.com\/en-us\/product\/global-printer-driver\/downloads\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.support.xerox.com\/en-us\/product\/global-printer-driver\/downloads<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Which driver to choose: PS or PCL6<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On the Xerox page, there are two printer driver options:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>UNIV_5.1076.3.0_PS_x64.zip<\/strong> \u2014 PostScript (PS) driver<\/li>\n<li><strong>UNIV_5.1076.3.0_PCL6_x64.zip<\/strong> \u2014 PCL6 driver<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Recommendation for most users:<\/strong> choose <strong>PS<\/strong>. It is often more stable for printing PDFs, complex layouts, and documents with fonts.<br \/>\n<strong>When PCL6 is better:<\/strong> if you mostly print from Word\/Excel and\/or if you run into issues after installing PS (print jobs hang, odd job processing, etc.), try PCL6.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Why there is no .exe in the archive and what\u2019s inside<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There is no installer because this is a \u201cdriver package\u201d for manual installation. You install it via the <strong>.INF<\/strong> file:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>PS:<\/strong> <strong>x3UNIVP.inf<\/strong> (inside the extracted folder)<\/li>\n<li><strong>PCL6:<\/strong> <strong>x3UNIVX.inf<\/strong> (inside the extracted folder)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If file extensions (such as .INF) are hidden and you can\u2019t find x3UNIVP.inf or x3UNIVX.inf, look for a file named x3UNIVP or x3UNIVX. It\u2019s the same file\u2014Windows may have \u201cFile name extensions\u201d turned off.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Preparation before installation<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Download the required archive (PS or PCL6) from the official Xerox page.<\/li>\n<li>Extract the ZIP to a simple folder.<\/li>\n<li>Choose the connection method: USB or network.
