General Information
About the Océ VarioPrint 2105
Introduction
The Océ VarioPrint 2105
With the Océ VarioPrint 2105, Océ created a new copy, scan and print concept
for your Document Production Center. Professional document handling and
efficient production printing and copying are key elements in this central
environment. Every day you receive hardcopy jobs and digital jobs. These jobs
must be printed quickly and easily. The traditional method for delivering
analog documents to you was to walk down to the DPC and have them hand
the documents over to you. This continues to be an important part of your
work. More and more, you and your customers use digital job submission
through the network and make prints instead of copies.
The Océ VarioPrint 2105 helps you to get a smooth change from analog to
digital document production. The Océ VarioPrint 2105 handles and processes
both analog and digital jobs in an identical and easy way.
Available configurations
The Océ VarioPrint 2105 has a modular configuration. You can use the scan
station and the print station together or separately. The control station is always
part of the system. The parts are described in detail in the following section:
See The configuration.
The Océ VarioPrint 2105 is available in two configurations.
■ Printer only
■ Hybrid.
The printer-only configuration consists of the print station and the control
station. You can only use this configuration to print your jobs.
The hybrid configuration consists of the print station, the control station and in
addition the scan station. You can use this configuration to print, copy and scan
your jobs.
This manual describes both the printer-only configuration and the hybrid
configuration. If you have the printer-only configuration, the sections about
Introduction 9
copying and scanning and scan-to-file in this manual do not apply to your
system. The user interface of the control station is the same for both
configurations with only one difference. The standard templates for copy jobs
and scan jobs are grayed-out for the printer-only configuration.

A new workflow
Introduction
Compared to the traditional, analog copiers, the Océ VarioPrint 2105 contains
new features to copy and print documents. The new features are:
■ Original and print definition
■ Paper management
■ Job queue
■ Set-build
■ Templates
■ Mailbox
■ Multi-jobbing
■ Accounting
■ Scan-to-file.
Original and print definition
When you prepare a copy job, you describe the original and the print. You can
define the settings for the sheet and the layout of the originals and the prints
separately.
An important part of the new workflow is that you only have to define the
settings for the original and the print. The system automatically calculates the
transformation from original to print (zoom, rotation and binding). For
example: you have a tabloid size original and you want a letter-standard copy.
Just tell the system you have a tabloid original and you want a letter-standard
copy. The system calculates the 71% adjustment for you.
Paper management
This is a completely new concept. You can now define what type of paper you
want to use in a job. On previous machines, you defined the which tray you
wanted to use. Because of the possibility of a large job queues, the paper load
of the trays may change while your job is in the queue. Then the Océ VarioPrint
2105 will notify you to load the paper type you defined in your job.
The 'Paper manager' allows you to define the paper load of the paper trays
exactly.
Introduction 13
Job queue
Set-build
Templates
All scan jobs and print jobs go into the job queue before they are printed. The
jobs in the job queue are managed from the operator panel in the 'Job queue
manager'.
The set-build key ( ) on the operator panel allows you to use different
settings (both original and print settings) for different parts (subsets) of your
documents.
A template is a group of pre-set settings. Templates help you to define the
settings of a job. There are three methods to use the templates.
[5] Methods to use templ ates

1 Press the start key ( ). The default 'Copy job' template will be used.
Only 1 copy is possible.
2 Select a template and press the start key ( ).
3 Select a template and edit the settings in the job editor.
[5] Methods to use templates
The 'Last used' template
This template contains the settings of the last started job.
Note: The 'Last used' template does not contain the settings of all the subsets
of a set-build job.
A mailbox is a digital storage area (not for archiving purposes) for scanned
documents and print jobs from the network. This digital storage area is on a
hard disk in the Océ Smart Imager.
The Océ VarioPrint 2105 has two mailboxes, a 'Local mailbox' and a 'Network
mailbox'. The 'Network mailbox' is the location for print jobs and the 'Local
mailbox' is the location for scanned jobs (copy job to mailbox) and jobs that
are moved from the job queue to the mailbox. The jobs in the 'Network
mailbox' are displayed with the file name, the user name, the number of pages
14 Océ VarioPrint 2105 Job manual
in the job, the number of sets you want to copy/print, the media type of the first
page and the date and time. The 'Local mailbox' shows the same information
but displays a job number instead of a name and there is no user name.
[6] Options in the mailb ox

1 You can select one or more jobs in the mailbox and press the start key
()
2 You can select a job in the mailbox, edit the job and then press the
start key ( ).
3 You can select one or more jobs in the mailbox and then delete the
selection.
[6] Options in the mailbox
The jobs started from the mailbox are copies of the jobs in the mailbox. You
can start a job from the mailbox as many times as required. Each time, you
create a new copy in the job queue.
To delete a job from the mailbox, you must delete the job.
Job order in the mailbox
When you open the mailbox view, the last job that arrived in the mailbox is
selected. 'New' jobs are added at the top, above the jobs that are 'Done' .
If you press the start key ( ), copies of all the selected mailbox jobs are
created and started into the job queue.
Use the star arrow keys to select a job in the mailbox. Use the arrow-up key
and the arrow-down key to select the jobs one by one. Use the arrow-left key
and the arrow-right key to move through the jobs in the mailbox screen by
screen. The arrow right key is equal to the Page down key and moves the screen
down. The arrow left key is equal to the Page up key and moves the screen up.
Mailbox information
The mailbox contains 'New' jobs and 'Done' jobs that were not deleted. A check
mark indicates the 'Done' jobs. 'Done' means that the jobs were sent to the
queue. However, this does not mean that the jobs must have been printed.

Move to mailbox
The option 'Move to mailbox' is available in the job queue manager. This
option allows you to move a job that has not started yet from the job queue to
the mailbox. A print job is moved to the network mailbox and a copy job is
moved to the local mailbox.
A job that is moved to the mailbox is treated as if a new job is added to the
mailbox. You can change the properties of the job.

Multi-jobbing
You can for example use the move-to-mailbox functionality for the following.

Number Description
1 Save a job for later use.
2 Use the extra editing options from the mailbox.
3 Mix jobs from the network mailbox and the local mailbox.
[8] Move-to-mailbox function
The Océ VarioPrint 2105 allows you to define and scan a new job while another
job is printing.
The new workflow can help the operator to do more in less time. The operator
can scan the originals while the Océ VarioPrint 2105 is printing other
documents. All the documents are scanned one by one and added to the job
queue. The operator can do other tasks while the Océ VarioPrint 2105 is
printing the earlier scanned documents.
Accounting
Scan-to-file
The accounting function allows the operator to store the print and copy job
information under an account number. The operator can generate an
accounting log file with the information sorted per account number. The
operator can use this information for example to create summaries of prints per
project or per client.
You can use predefined scan profiles to scan analogue originals.The scanned
originals are saved as digital documents on the scan server. You can retrieve the
documents from the scan server, and for example, print the documents on
demand or archive them in a digital file system.

Getting Started
Power modes on the Océ VarioPrint 2105
Introduction
The Océ VarioPrint 2105 can be in 4 different power modes:
1 OFF mode
2 Sleep mode
3 Low power mode
4 Process or stand-by mode.
OFF mode
The Océ VarioPrint 2105 print station can be in OFF mode. The scan station is
always turned on, because of the Océ Smart Imager, that controls the power of
the system. You can turn off the print station with the power switch ( ) and
still scan your documents on the scan station.
Sleep mode
When the print station or the scan station is in sleep mode, this indicates that
the power consumption is decreased to a very low level.
It will take up to 12 minutes to turn the print station into stand-by mode. It will
take up to 4 minutes to turn the scan station into stand-by mode.
You can turn the scan station and the print station into the sleep mode with the
On/Off button ( ). If the print station prints a document while you press the
On/Off button ( ), the print station stops at the end of a set and then goes into
sleep mode.
If you do not use the Océ VarioPrint 2105 for a defined time (EPA-setting), the
scan station and the print station turn into the sleep mode. To change the
EPA-setting for the sleep mode delay, change the sleep mode timer (see the
Configuration and maintenance manual). If the Océ VarioPrint 2105 is in the
sleep mode, you have to press the On/Off button ( ) to activate the scan
station or print station.
If the scan station and the print station are in the sleep mode, the screen on the
operator panel is off/black. The LED on the monitor is red. If either the scan
40 Océ VarioPrint 2105 Job manual
station or the print station is not in the sleep mode, the screen of the operator
panel is on.
Low power mode
When the print station is in low power mode, this indicates that the power
consumption is decreased to lower level. It will take up to 4 minutes to turn the
print station into stand-by mode.
The print station turns into the low power mode when the station is not used
for some time. The low power mode timer settings indicate this time. If the Océ
VarioPrint 2105 must be active to print a document, the print station
automatically returns to the stand-by mode.
Note: Only the print station can turn into the low power mode. You can not put
the print station into low power mode manually (only by timer).
Process or stand-by mode
Both stations can be in process mode or stand-by mode separately.
The print station is in process mode when it prints a job. The scan station is in
process mode when it scans a job.
The scan station and the print station are in stand-by mode when they are not
processing a job. When a job needs to start, the stations are active immediately.
There is no extra warm-up time.
Warm-up time
You can adjust the warm-up time of the Océ VarioPrint 2105 to take into
account special climate conditions. The warm-up time is the time the system
needs to become operational when you start the system. You can increase the
standard warm-up time with 5 minutes to decrease the effect of moisture on the
print quality caused by condensation. Configure the warm-up time

Make a copy or print with the copy card
Introduction
You can use the Océ VarioPrint 2105 in combination with a separate copy
count device. You can use the copy count device as a prepaid credit system or
a post-paid debit system. The prepaid system requires copy cards with credit
units. The post-paid system uses an account number.
Prepaid system
The prepaid system uses a copy card that contains credit units. The print clicks
are subtracted from the credit value on the card each time the system makes a
print. When the card runs out of credits during a print job or copy job, the
system stops printing and displays a message. The user must refill the credits
or insert a new card.
Post-paid system
The post-paid system uses an account number that you must enter at the start
of a job.
How to make a copy with the copy card
Insert the copy card into the copy count device or enter the account number.

Erase the margin
Introduction
The Océ VarioPrint 2105 allows you to hide a part of the information of your
original, for example to prevent that your printed documents show prints from
staples or holes. The erase function always hides information at the binding
edge (define in original document type) of the original.
In all the templates you can navigate to the 'Margin erase' function in the
original definition of the job editor ('Original', 'Layout', 'Margin erase'). You
can also use the 'Margin erase' template.
Range
You can set the 'Margin erase' setting between 0 mm and 100 mm in steps of 1
mm (Europe) or between 0" and 4" in steps of 1/24" (USA). The default value
for the 'Margin erase' setting in the 'Margin erase' template is 10 mm.

Change the margin (shift)
Introduction
If you bind a document or use perforation, you may need a larger margin. If the
document has a narrow margin, you could loose text. In all the templates you
can navigate to the 'Margin shift' function in the print definition of the job
editor ('Print ', 'Layout', 'Margin shift'). You can also use the 'Margin shift'
template.
The Copy Function 83
Margin shift is possible for 1-sided or 2-sided documents. The information on
the front and back of the print is always shifted away from the binding edge of
the print.
When you print a document, the 'Document type' must be defined correctly (for
a standard paper size in readable direction in the automatic document feeder or
if the print document type is the same as the original document type, this is
defined automatically).
The form of a document can be booklet form or a calendar form. This form
defines the binding edge and orientation of the information. The figure below
shows the orientation and the binding edge for different documents.

Copy on special material
Introduction
Special materials are for example the following.
■ Transparencies
■ Tab sheets
■ Inserts (no copy possible)
■ Pre-printed paper
■ Punched paper
■ Covers
■ Labels
■ Adhesive film.
Before you begin
If you use material with a special orientation (front and rear are different), like
pre-printed or punched paper select 'Sheet', 'Paper', 'Other', 'Special front' or
select one of the three special paper types under 'Sheet', 'Paper', 'Type'. To print
correctly, put the material into a paper tray with the heading of the material
toward the front of the Océ VarioPrint 2105 because the image rotates 180°.
Put the side to print first face down.
If you use heavy material, remember the following. Some heavy materials, like
transparencies, do not move through the finisher. To print correctly, change the
output destination to the print tray. This change has two results.
■ All output goes into the print tray.
■ The staple function is not available.
Attention: Do not use pre-printed paper because pre-printed paper can
damage the Océ VarioPrint 2105. There is one exception. You can use copied
paper as an insert, because an insert does not go through the warm areas of
the print station. Inserts do not damage the Océ VarioPrint 2105.
Note: If you use tab sheets, remember that you can print only 1-sided. The right
margin of your original must not contain more information than the tab of the
tab sheet can contain. The Océ VarioPrint 2105 moves the information of your
original 12 mm or 1/2 inch toward the tab if you select 'Print on the tab'.
