The Xerox Docutech 135 is esentially a 600 dpi PostScript laser printer 
that happens to print 135 8.5x11 pages per minute. Therefore, prepare 
your document as if you are printing to any PostScript printer.

Graphic images are best if saved as .EPS or as .TIF. The tiff images
should be sampled at a dpi of at least twice the lpi frequency of the
output device. In the case of the docutech, its default halftone is
65 lpi, so your tiff images should be saved at about 150 dpi. Go to
200 dpi if you plan to output to any other postscript laser printers
that image at higher lpi values.

Good luck
