The Océ 9600
The Océ 9600 is a wide-format, black-and-white, electrophotographic, mid- to
high-volume copier/printer/scanner. The machine is available in a number of
printer configurations, ranging from two rolls in a single drawer (the minimum
configuration) to a maximum of six rolls (with one cassette tray) and three
cassette trays (with four rolls).
The Océ 9600 is a versatile, highly productive system which offers you a broad
range of functions. See ‘Product specifications Océ 9600’ on page 281 for
more information.

Océ 9600 key concepts
Printer configuration
The Océ 9600 is available in a number of printer
configurations, ranging from two rolls in a single drawer (the minimum
configuration) to a maximum of six rolls with one cassette tray and four rolls
with three cassette trays. Also, a number of optional features are available,
including a folder, a horizontal delivery tray, a roll loader and a paper switch
for supporting customer finishing units.
Copy functionality
With the Océ 9600 scanner, a large number of copy
activities can be performed. A wide variety of original and copy related
settings are supported. Users can specify particular layout, media, finishing,
feeding and quality enhancement options from the scanner operating panel.
See ‘Product specifications Océ 9600’ on page 281 for more information.
Scan to file
The Océ 9600 offers full hybrid performance with its optional
scan-to-file function. Documents are scanned and then digitally stored. Ten
customizable destinations are supported.
Network connectivity
The Océ 9600 supports a number of popular network
protocols. This means that it can be used in multiple networking environments
such as TCP/IP, NetBEUI, and Novell Pserver (IPX/SPX).
Set processing
The Océ 9600 supports set processing. This means that when
you send a file to the printer, it is processed once and can be printed many times
(as required). The Océ 9600 is equipped with a set memory for storing up to
250 A0s, which allows for the creation of identical sets that are sorted either
by page or by set.
Print/copy job
A print/copy job is a job sent to the Océ 9600 Printer from a
user application (print job) or from the scanner (copy job). A print/copy job
may consist of several sets, which in turn may consist of several pages. Sorting
of a print/copy job may take place based on sets or on pages.
Spool memory
The Océ 9600 contains a spool memory which provides a
queuing system for files you want to print. The spool memory allows multiple
users to send print jobs to the Océ 9600 simultaneously. The print jobs are then
placed in the print queue where they wait to be printed. The first job put into
the queue is the first to be printed.
Introduction 13
Page 14
Job recovery
The Océ 9600 is equipped with a job recovery function that
safeguards users against data loss in case of a printer failure. After a restart, the
data submitted to the printer before the crash will be automatically processed
and printed. This means that jobs do not have to be resubmitted after a printer
malfunction, thus saving valuable time for the users.
Green button principle
The Océ 9600 is a very user-friendly system. The
scanner, in particular, is very easy to operate. Basic copy jobs can be performed
by simply pressing the green start button on the scanner operating panel. If you
want to perform more complex copy jobs, you have to change the default copy
settings with the help of the other settings on the scanner operating panel.
User interaction
The user can communicate with the Océ 9600 from different
locations, both locally (printer and scanner operating panels, controller
applications) and remotely (drivers on user workstations, Remote Control
Format (RCF) files or Océ Job Tickets (OJT) and remote applications):
Operating panels
■
The Océ 9600 consists of two operating panels for making a wide variety of
settings for printing and copying. See ‘Printer operating panel’ on page 26
and ‘Scanner operating panel’ on page 40 for more information.
Controller applications
■
The Océ 9600 controller applications are used for making default key
operator and system administrator settings (Settings Editor). For viewing the
status of the jobs in the print queue, use the Queue Manager. The ‘System
Control Panel’ shows the status of the entire system. With ‘Scan Manager,’
you can define all relevant settings for scan to file. See ‘Océ 9600 controller’
on page 19 for more information.
Printer drivers
■
With the Océ 9600, a number of printer drivers can be used, including Plot
Director, Windows driver, AutoCAD ADI/HDI and PostScript. With these
drivers, PC users can access the Océ 9600 remotely, from their applications
to print their files. More information about installing, configuring and using
drivers can be found in the documentation provided with the drivers. All Océ
drivers (except Postscript) can be freely downloaded from the Internet at
www.oce.com.
14 Océ 9600 Copier/Printer User Manual
Page 15
A Remote Control Format (RCF) file or Océ Job Ticket (OJT) can be used to
■
instruct the Océ 9600 on how to handle a remote print job. The specific
settings can be made by a user on a control panel, or by means of the user
interface (UI) on a workstation or PC. The RCF file/job ticket specifies the
sets of inputs, the sets of outputs and the processing that is needed to form
the outputs. See the ‘Remote Control Format Reference Manual’ and the
‘Océ Job Ticket Reference Manual’ for more information about Remote
Control Format (RCF) files or Océ Job Tickets (OJT).
Introduction 15
Page 16
Océ 9600 users
On the Océ 9600, the following user types can be identified:
System administrator
The Océ 9600 system administrator is responsible for
installing and configuring the Océ 9600 in his or her environment. He defines
the printer language settings, pen settings and Automatic Language Sensing
(ALS) settings. The system administrator can also provide assistance to normal
users who need to install the printer drivers on their workstations. See
chapter 7, ‘System status’ on page 105 for more information. Configuration
information can be found in the Océ 9600 Connectivity Manual provided with
the Océ 9600.
Key operator
The Océ 9600 key operator is responsible for daily maintenance
of the Océ 9600. The key operator replenishes toner when necessary, loads
media as needed and defines the default printer settings for recurring print jobs.
Also, the key operator defines all time settings, such as panel time out and
sleep mode time out. See chapter 10, ‘Key operator settings’ on page 129 for
more information.
Repro operator
The Océ 9600 repro operator is responsible for the daily
operations on the Océ 9600. The repro operator performs all job-related
activities on the system and is allowed to change the default settings for
job-related activities in the Settings Editor.
Anonymous user
Typically, an anonymous user on the Océ 9600 can be either
a PC user who has remote access to the system through one or more drivers
(Plot Director, Windows driver, AutoCAD ADI/HDI or PostScript), the remote
applications (Queue Manager, System Control Panel and Settings Editor), or a
user performing a copy job at the scanner.

the user feedback about the progress of the job that is currently being printed.
The counter, located at the bottom of the upper window on the operating panel,
displays the number of sets and/or pages printed. Counting starts at 1. The
following options are available:
When no sets are made, only the current page and the total number of pages
■
are displayed (e.g. ‘Page 3 of 5’). At the beginning of a job, when the system
does not yet know the total number of pages, only the current page may be
displayed (e.g. ‘Page 5’).
With set input: set counter. In this case, the counter shows the current, total
■
number of sets and the current page (e.g. ‘Set 3 of 5, Page 10’). At the
beginning of a job, when the system does not yet know the total number of
sets, only the current set and page may be displayed (e.g. ‘Set 2, Page 5’).
With set input: multiple sheet counter. In this case the counter shows the
■
current page, the total number of pages and the current copy, e.g. ‘Page 2 of
12, Copy 5’). At the beginning of a job, when the system does yet not know
the total number of pages, only the current page and copy may be displayed
(e.g. ‘Page 2, Copy 5’).

type and format itself, you have to specify type and size after you (re)load
media, as described in ‘Media’ on page 219.

Positioning the reinforcement knives (optional)
Because the knives of the optional reinforcement unit of the folder get sticky
from the glue on the reinforcement tape, they have to be cleaned regularly. You
are recommended to clean the knives each time you have inserted a new tape
roll (see ‘A new tape roll’ on page 232) or when an error in the reinforcement
unit has occurred.
Before you can clean the reinforcement knives, you have to place them in such
a position that all the parts that need to be cleaned are accessible. You can do
this from the printer operating panel.

The Océ 9600 is a very user-friendly system. The scanner, in particular, is very
easy to operate. Basic copy jobs can be performed by simply pressing the green
start button on the scanner’s operating panel. If you want to perform more
complex copy jobs, you have to change the default copy settings with the help

The operating panel is located above the original feed. The Océ 9600 Copier
operating panel is illustrated below. As you can see in this diagram, the panel
consists of a display in the center, surrounded by a number of function, section
and arrow buttons. To the left of the display, you can find the Stop and Interrupt
buttons. Below the display, you can find the Start, Numeric and Correction
buttons as well as the Counter window.
This section consists of two parts. The first part explains the basic use of the
buttons. The second part deals with special use of the display. It describes how
to use the soft buttons above and along the sides of the display to define your

Using the manual feeder for copying
If you want to copy a job on a media type and/or size that is not available on
one of the paper rolls or cassette trays, it is more convenient to manually feed
sheets instead of switching paper rolls or cassette trays. The sheet feed is a
special slot just above the roll drawers on the engine. You can insert pre-cut
copy material in this slot, one sheet at a time.
Only use media as specified in ‘’ on page 287.

Non-standard size originals
The scanner of the Océ 9600 system automatically detects the width of the
inserted original. For Example: with European sizes, it detects whether the
width is A0, A1, A2, A3, A4, 500 mm, or 700 mm. The Océ 9600 system uses
a memory table that contains all standard width - standard length combinations
to predict the length of the original. The scanner also measures the real length
of each original while it is transferred through the scanner.
If you are copying thick, thin or damaged originals or originals in a

scanner to ensure correct delivery (see ‘Delivering originals after scanning’

Note:
the key operator and the system administrator have the same user rights. In the
Settings Editor, however, the user modes offer different rights.
Access
The access to the key operator, repro operator and system
administrator modes is password protected to allow only authorized personnel
to use particular functions. You can enter these modes by selecting the Login
option from the File menu and by specifying the correct password when
prompted for it (see ‘Log in’ on page 122).
You can exit the Queue Manager altogether by selecting the

menu.
The Exit option is only available when you are working remotely (see
Exit
option from
chapter 8, ‘Remote Logic’ on page 113). In local mode you cannot stop the
Queue Manager.
Job priority
The priority of print jobs in the Queue Manager is determined by
the order in which they are submitted to the Océ 9600. However, there is a
setting in the Settings Editor which allows you to give copy jobs priority over
print jobs. See ‘Copy priorities’ on page 179 for more information.

Icons
The Océ 9600 Queue Manager uses a number of icons to display information
about a job in the queue. The following icons are used:
The job is in the spool and is currently being transferred to the print
queue.
The job is currently being processed for printing in the print queue.
The job is ready for printing in the print queue.
The job is being received and printed at the same time.

The connection to a controller
The Océ 9600 applications are not only available locally or on the controller,
but are also delivered as remote or client versions (except for Scan Manager).
This means that users can access one or more Océ 9600 systems from their own
computer.
Anonymous users can view the status of both their jobs (Queue Manager) and
the entire system (System Control Panel). This way they can, for instance,
determine which queue is shortest and send their jobs there to avoid lengthy
delays.
From a management point of view, the availability of remote versions of the
applications is quite useful as well. The remote applications allow key
operators and system administrators to manage multiple Océ 9600 systems
from a single location. They can centrally monitor the system status and
identify potential problems without having to work at the controller itself.
When the Océ 9600 Queue Manager has been installed on a remote client, the

A scan-to-file is made at the Océ 9600 scanner. On the scanner operating panel
you can, among other things, choose at which resolution you want to scan and
where you want to store your file.
The result of the scan-to-file can be stored on the controller (temporary store)
or directed forward towards a network destination via Window’s Network
Neighborhood.
Océ View Station, linked to the Scan Manager application, enables you to
automatically or manually view the scanned documents afterwards.

File mode
File mode can be ‘Off’, ‘On’ or ‘On with check plot’. ‘Off’ means normal copy
mode. ‘On’ results in scan-to-file. Choose ‘On with check plot’ to scan to file
with a check plot. A check plot is a print of the scanned original, ensuring
consistency with a later re-print.

Destination
You can store your scan either in the temporary store on the controller or on a
network destination. You can define up to ten destinations in the Scan Manager
application. On the scanner operating panel you can choose one of these
destinations.

richness is required to take advantage of the varying capabilities of scanners

Note:
‘Group 4’ or ‘Group 3-1D’ are compression methods which are
optimized for text and vector drawings. If you choose these compressions when
scanning a photo with many grayscales, these compressions can result in a
negative compression: the file size increases instead of decreasing. Use these
compressions sparingly.

Resolution
The Océ 9600 scan-to-file option allows you to scan at the following three
resolutions:
■
■

The higher the resolution, the better the image quality. Higher resolution also
leads to larger file sizes. The default value is 200 dpi.
Zoom
The ‘Zoom’ option allows you to scale while scanning to a file. When you set
‘File mode’ to ‘On’, the automatic ‘Zoom’ setting will result in ‘1:1’. You can
change this default setting into one of the following three settings:
200 dots per inch (dpi)
300 dpi
400 dpi

Scan Manager
The Scan Manager is an application available only locally on the controller.
With the Scan Manager you can configure the destinations for scan-to-file. To
increase your productivity, you can define automatic file naming. This way,
you can do batch scans without operating the controller.
During scan-to-file, Scan Manager displays the filename and the status of the
file generation process. When the scan is completed, a view of the scanned
image is automatically displayed on the controller.
Figure 46 on page 90 shows the Scan Manager application. It has the looks and
functions of a Microsoft Windows ‘Explorer’. The left part displays a tree view
containing folders which contain destinations. The right part displays a table
view containing the content of the folder currently selected. In 46 on page 90
folder ‘Next Dest(8)’ is selected.

shows that the destination ‘Temp10’ is selected.
If for any reason a scan to file cannot be sent to the appropriate remote
destination, the file will be stored in the ‘Unsent’ folder.

Destinations
A destination is a place to which you scan your file. You can create, delete and
lock destinations. You can also define automatic file naming to ensure your
files get the desired names.
A destination can also be a file server or an end user PC. It is better to select
remote destinations instead of the local ones. The local destinations are
temporary and cannot contain many of scan files.

How to retrieve scanned files?
When you scan to file, your files will be stored in the destination you set. This
can be on the local controller or on a remote system. You can retrieve your files
from the local host via File Transfer Protocol (FTP) (see figure 57). Also, if
during scanning to a remote destination something goes wrong, you can
retrieve your files from the local host.
