100/120/144 EA Digital Production System.
Product Overview
The Xerox Nuvera® 100/120/144 EA Digital Production System sets a new benchmark in the world of on­demand printing. It is a networked printing system comprised of multiple modules. The Xerox FreeFlow™ Document Services Platform (FreeFlow™ DocuSP®) is integrated into the Printer Module. The printer module may be acquired with simplex, letter size / A4 speeds of 100, 120 or 144 impressions per minute. The optional Scanner Module with 300 sheet input tray scans at 120 images per minute, simplex or duplex at 600 x 600 dpi. Two Sheet Feed Modules (SFM's) are available, one with 4 trays, the other with 2 trays having more large-format capacity. A SFM may also be installed after the printer module and used as an inserter. The Printer module prints at 4800 x 600 dpi utilizing a state of the art dual beam laser raster output scanner (ROS) with dedicated image processing hardware. The Finishing Transport Module (FTM) provides the capability to interface with a variety of production inline document finishing architecture (DFA) finishing devices. The Basic Finishing Module (BFM) stacks and provides stapling in single or dual positions. Up to two BFM modules (one a BFM Plus) can be used to enable continuous running with unload while run capability. A BFM Plus module can also be used in tandem with the FTM to enable inline DFA finishing. The Xerox Nuvera of paper latitude, including coated stocks. Alternatively, the 100 and 120 ppm versions of the Xerox Nuvera finishing options.

Crucial Performance Expectations
The Xerox Nuvera® 100/120/144 EA Digital Production System is a “clean-sheet” design utilizing innovative technologies. It is the new base platform for Xerox monochrome products. The following expectations should be explicitly set. Please see the appropriate section of this CED for further detail.
Availability
The Xerox Nuvera® 100/120/144 EA Digital Production System will be available on a monthly average 92 – 95%of the time.
Availability is defined as all of the time the machine is not being serviced, or waiting for service.
Given similar service coverage, DocuTech® / DocuPrint® availability averages up to 95%.
Media Capability
Approved stocks can be found in the Compatible Media List in this document
Reinforced stocks should be limited to 90 sheets loaded in a tray at one time
The system performs more reliably with long grain paper
Windowed stocks are not supported – performance (jams) maybe degraded.
Envelopes
Envelopes should be limited to 60 loaded in a tray at one time. Nuvera almost empty but not until empty, leaving 20~40 sheets remaining. When running envelopes frequent reloading of the feeder trays will be required. Very slight wrinkles (1/2 inch long) may occur on the trail edge of envelopes at the corners.

feeder trays feed until
- 5 -
Xerox Nuvera® 100/120/144 EA Digital Production System - Customer Expectations Document
Due to the nature of feeding envelopes with flap open, some mis-stacking may occur in the top tray as the envelopes catch on the open flaps. Envelopes can only be sent to the Top Tray. In the case of the Multifunction Finisher, the maximum limitation in the Top Tray is 15.
DocuCards
®
DocuCards can only be loaded 100 at a time in a tray. Nuvera
feeder trays feed until almost empty but not until empty, leaving 20~40 sheets remaining. When running DocuCards, frequent reloading of the feeder trays will be required. DocuCards can only be run to the Top Tray of the finisher. Some mis-stacking may occur as the DocuCards catch on the edges of the stacked sheets. When using DocuCards, it is recommended that you use a Tiltatron (available from the Customized Application Service (CAS), which can be contacted at customizedapplications.service@xerox.com).

Digital Production system images on a wide range of both coated and uncoated papers. Results may vary depending on the paper used. We are pleased to consult with you to help you maximize your objectives.
Media capabilities vary with finishing options. Please refer to the System Media Capability table in this document. (p. 8)
Coated stocks may exhibit issues such as higher jam rates, smearing, loss of halftone image quality, mottle, and light solid areas.
Coated stocks should be used in environmental conditions where the ambient temperature is between 60° and 72°F and the relative humidity is between 20% and 55%
Heavier weight stocks (>220 gsm) may experience toner adherence permanence issues, depending on the type of material being used. Please expect degraded performance with parchments, vellums, and other very smooth or very rough heavy weight stocks. As always, it is important to verify the application prior to any production run
Tab jobs must be run with straight (not reverse) collated tabs.
Images printed on Mylar tabs are typically degraded by toner scatter.
Configurations using the Multifunction Finisher
Coated stocks and heavyweight stocks (>220 gsm) are not supported.
Tabs fed from
o The SFM must use reverse collated tabs o The MFF Pro Plus Insertion Tray must use forward collated tabs o Tabs feeding from the Inserter Module is not supported o Also, running tabs requires proper use of the supplied Tab Guides
Tabs are supported when the number of segments is 10 or less.
Images printed on Mylar tabs are typically degraded by toner scatter.
Drilled Paper & Tab Jobs: Currently most jobs are delivered face down, with the bind edge trailing to
match the requirements of the finisher. When tabs are run to the MFF, the tabs must be delivered with the tab leading and this requires an inversion at the exit of the paper path and entrance into the finisher. It is quite common to run drilled paper when running tabbed jobs, and this requires the user to reverse the loading of the drilled body stock in the tray such that the drilled edge is opposite what the paper tray loading label for drilled body stock shows.
Certain stocks (stocks with high clay content and / or composed of other high density materials) may reduce the number of sheets that can be stapled and / or result in mis-staples.
The Sheet Enhancement Module (SEM) is not available for use with the MFF.

Design the pre-printed image so that no ink, varnish, or aqueous coating is placed in the area to be printed on by Nuvera
varnish. If Nuvera color is screened back to less than 30%, or an uncoated base stock is used.
Use a laser-compatible printing process for the pre-printed stock. Choose inks, varnishes, and coatings that are temperature stable and have low levels of petroleum distillates. UV-cured inks
are recommended, to insure complete curing before printing on with Nuvera
on Nuvera
Select base paper stock approved for use on Nuvera
There are other factors that should be taken into account to successfully print on pre-printed stocks. Refer to the Xerox Nuvera
and performance expectations.
8½” x 14” paper is loaded short edge feed and runs at 72 pages per minute simplex on 120 and 144 PPM configurations and runs at 60 pages per minute on a 100 PPM configuration. Refer to the Printer Module Section for a summary of engine speed for various paper sizes.
When feeding paper smaller than 8½” (216mm) in the cross process direction, there may be some degradation of image quality. It is recommended that the customer test their applications for such cases.

Substrates that tend to exhibit curl when being fed through the Xerox Nuvera functional problems in the finishing devices. In most cases, the sheet enhancement module will deliver flat output. In cases where the output may still need adjustment, you can fine tune the Sheet Enhancement Module controls or you can manually specify the amount of decurling you prefer. See the ‘User Guide and Training Aid: How Do I? – Manage Paper Curl’, for additional information.
The BFM and BFM Plus do not offset paper sizes larger than 11x17" / A3. This means that 12x18 or 12x18.5 cannot be offset. For these sizes, software ignores any offset programming selection.
For reliable stacking, stack size should be limited for certain jobs:
--Stapled sets of 15 sheets or smaller are limited by machine control to 100 sets.
--Stapled sets of coated stocks stack less well, and should be managed to 50 by the operator.
--Stapled sets should be offset stacked.
--The stack height limit can be operator adjusted.
Banner and slip sheets should be greater than or equal to 90 gsm (24 lb bond)
Slip-sheets must be the same size as the body sheets
When stapling sets with mixed size stock, the stock must be the same dimension in the Across Feed
direction, and the dimension differences should be within 13mm (½”) in the feed direction.
Drilled paper must be loaded with the holes leading (e.g. to the left) when using two Basic Finishing Modules.

Statement size paper (5.5” x 8.5”) and Envelopes (as noted above) will be delivered only to the top tray.
Staple locations for non-standard size papers (e.g., standard sizes are A4, Letter size, etc.) will be slightly asymmetrical. The staple will be located in the position appropriate for the next nearest standard paper size.
Substrates that tend to exhibit curl when being fed through the Xerox Nuvera functional problems in the finishing devices. On MFF systems (which do not include the Sheet Enhancement Module), it may be necessary to adjust the Print Engine decurler in order to get the substrate to become flatter, so that the finisher runs with optimal performance. The proper Print Engine decurler setting will vary depending on the substrate and the ambient environmental conditions. Paper left opened overnight may exacerbate curl.
Tearing of booklet covers near the staples can occur with booklets using 9 or more sheets of paper, under the following conditions: a) there is high image coverage around the gutter area on the inside of the cover or on the inside or outside gutters of the first couple of booklet sheets (note that gutter area image coverage on the innermost sheet of the booklet is OK), or, b) the cover stock is smooth and/or lightweight (<80gsm). With certain other stocks (coated stocks, or uncoated stocks with high area coverage Xerographic Color Images), the cover tearing can occur even with booklets containing less than 9 sheets of paper.

New Capabilities with Xerox Nuvera® System Release 8.0
Note that this software release is only available for Nuvera
not compatible with Nuvera Production System configurations.
A new toner (EA) is enabled in this configuration that uses a smaller particle size. Overall image quality is improved because of higher fidelity due to the smaller particle sizes, and reduced toner mass results in more reliable fuser stripping. These result in performance improvements across the supported media range, and enable less frequent service. Specific image quality benefits include:
- sharper text
- sustained halftone uniformity
- no image scatter on coated stocks
- no toner puffs.
EA systems include one toner bottle, yielding 210K images at 6% area coverage.
The Multifunction Finisher is now also available in the Pro Plus configuration, which adds hole punching and
insertion (via an Insertion Tray) capabilities
Improved system reliability and stacking performance with the inclusion of the new Sheet Enhancement Module (SEM) on configurations that include the BFM or FTM finishing modules.
Enablement of 2 BFM Plus units in combination with downstream 3rd party finishing via the Finishing Transport Module
A base offering of DocuSP® that consists of a single queue and a simplified media programming model. An optional upgrade, known as the Productivity Pack, enables multiple queues and enhanced media management using the stock library.
A base Image Quality offering of a 125 lpi halftone screen, with an optional Enhanced IQ upgrade to include 85, 106, 134 and 156 lpi halftone screens. These screens are applicable to PS/PDF/TIFF/PCL DataStreams.
The Windows Drivers now support bi-directional communications. Also available is a driver for the Windows Vista platform
Jam recovery offset sheet in the BFM configuration that enables easy stack inspection at each occurrence of a jam in a run
The IPDS Finishing Operation Triplet is now supported (for stapling operations only) as part of an XOH Define Group Boundary command.

System Product Specifications Overview
Optimum Product Performance
Print Volume Range
The Xerox Nuvera® 100/120/144 EA Digital Production System is designed for an Average Monthly Print Volume (AMPV) as below.
System AMPV Conditions
Xerox Nuvera® 100/120/144 EA Digital Production System
Maximum Duty Cycle: Up to 3.7 million prints per month with the Xerox Nuvera® 144 EA Digital Production System.
Duty Cycle is defined as:
The maximum recommended monthly copy / print volume support under standard vendor supplied service (3 x 7 shift coverage). This defines the upper end of expected customer volume band for the device.
The Maximum AMPV / Duty Cycle cited above assume a print environment with dedicated skilled operators and production grade finishing alternatives, such as the Basic Finishing Module. Actual customer experience may vary in conjunction with the duty cycles of the selected third party or mid­production finishing alternatives available.

System Configuration and Installation
Installation Preparation Document
This section should be used in conjunction with the Xerox Nuvera® 100/120/144 EA Digital Production System Installation Planning Guide (IPG), the Xerox Nuvera Production System Installation Preparation Document (IPD), and the supported inline DFA Finishing
Device Solution Planning Guide, which contain detailed specifications for size, weight, electric, and environmental conditions. Only the most important requirements are stated here.
Customer Responsibilities
The following must be completed before system delivery and will be assessed in the final site check:
Item Comments
Identify placement of the system Ensure the printer can be delivered to the site Supply the appropriate electrical connections Dedicated power required Install an exhaust duct to vent hot air to the air system or the outside if required
Install a network drop for Internet access Automatic upload of data for remote diagnostics Verify the strength and slope of the floor Meet room Environmental Specifications for temperature and relative humidity year round
Connect system to network including proxy server information
Heat vent kit is available (for stationary system installations only). The kit lowers the system’s output from the nominal running heat emission level (see the Environmental Factors table) to 8,500 BTU/hr.
This is essential to the system’s ability to perform as expected; Xerox will not be able to resolve performance problems encountered when the area is not maintained within this operating range.
®
100/120/144 EA Digital
System Installation
System installation can take from 4 to 6 hours for a basic system, to 9 to 11 hours or more, depending on the number of feeders, finishers and system options being installed.
Availability
As with any other printing process, you will not plan production to the raw speed of the printer.
Your Xerox Nuvera average 92% to 95% of the time.
Availability is defined, as all the time the machine is not being serviced or waiting for service by
Xerox.
Given similar service coverage, DocuTech® / DocuPrint® availability averages up to 95%.
Although the service call rate may exceed current DocuTech overall system availability will become comparable.
Planning for volume requires taking many factors into account in addition to printer availability. These factors include pre-press workflow efficiency, job type and client expectations, use of qualified stocks, daily volume and number of jobs, job mix, area coverage, adherence to environmental specifications, and operator expertise and attention to procedures.

Automatic, brief pauses for registration or xerographic process adjustments to maintain high image quality Switching between one-sided and two­sided printing does cause some loss of productivity. The extent of the loss is directly related to the frequency of the switch.
Comment
If the environment does drift outside the specified range during the systems’ powered down state, some period of image degradation can be expected at startup. Copy job sent to the top tray; platen scan, simplex job, 8.5 x 11 LEF fed from tray 1 Printer should not cycle down as long as it receives an image to print within 5 seconds of completing the previous sheet.
Vary by operating company / country; ask local analyst or sales representative to explain your meter operation. Automated reading of the billing meter is available, if Remote Services are enabled.
When producing collated sets run 1 to N, the system already optimizes performance. In other cases, adding a blank side to the job can minimize impact, but the sheet is billed.
Supplies and Component Yields
The consumable supplies listed below are engineered specifically for use in the Xerox Nuvera® 100/120/144 EA Digital Production System and provide the highest and most consistent image quality, maximum machine productivity, and uptime.

Xerox Productivity Plus (XPP)
The XPP option provides capability for the advanced customer to carry out certain maintenance activities. Before this capability can be enabled at a customer location, the customer personnel who will be performing maintenance need to be trained and certified by Xerox. Training is delivered in two phases. Each phase is one day of training. Customers may elect to participate only in phase one or in both phases. Phase 1 training covers use of diagnostic routines, photoreceptor removal and replacement, and power supply filter replacement. Phase 2 covers fuser, corotrons and additional filters. A manual and tool kit is provided with the training and a license is required in order to access the customer diagnostics and update High Frequency Service Items. Specific parts will be provided as on-site inventory.
prInteract (formerly Remote Services)
The Xerox Nuvera® Digital Production System is enabled with Remote Service features, including Automated Remote Monitoring and On Demand Machine Data Transfer. Remote Services provides the ability for the
Xerox Nuvera Xerox support server within Xerox’s firewalled environment. Data is transported through the network using industry standard 128-bit encryption and Secure Socket Layer (SSL) transport protocols.
Enablement of Remote Data Transfer requires two steps:
Populating of the customer’s machine serial number into the Xerox server. This occurs at order placement if the customer selects the CONNECT option.
Installing the customer’s proxy server or Firewall information address on the machine. (Reference the System Administration Guide for details.)
To sign up for Meter Assistant, customers or Sales Specialists should visit xerox.com: Customer Resources: Submit Meter Reads for more information.

Compatible Media List
The media listed on the following pages have been tested and approved for use in the Xerox Nuvera® DPS (when using a supported Inline DFA Finishing device, please refer to the individual Inline DFA Finishing Device Solution Planning Guide for a list of supported media types).
The Xerox Nuvera papers (uncoated papers only in configurations using an MFF). Results may vary depending on the paper used. We are pleased to consult with you to help you maximize your objectives.
Coated stocks should be used in environmental conditions where the ambient temperature is between 60° and 72°F and the relative humidity is between 20% and 55%. Coated stocks may exhibit issues such as higher jam rates, smearing, loss of halftone image quality, mottle, and light solid areas. Optimized printing may not be possible across the entire weight range of coated papers. Coated stocks under 120gsm may exhibit degraded performance - avoid any images with greater than 25%
toner area coverage and dark images along the lead edge of sheets; also, machine to machine variation and tolerance stack ups may result in successful performance on one machine and not another.
Successful printing on pre-printed stocks is dependent upon many factors. Additional information and performance expectations are provided in the Xerox Nuvera
The Xerox Supplies Group will be available to test particular media in a customer’s application.
For more information about media, please see the Xerox Nuvera Guide available at www.xerox.com.

VIPP (Variable Data Intelligent PostScript Printware)
FreeFlow Variable Information (VI) Suite
The FreeFlow™ VI Software Suite provides a variable data software suite with focus on VIPP (Variable data Intelligent Postscript Printware) - a Xerox technology building on the power of postscript with the goal of a powerful Variable Data solution that can make document creation as simple as just sending the data. Print shop operators and supervisors can also easily print variable data applications in electronic format, as PDF files, with the VI PDF Originator.
Print Speed/System Performance
In general, the Xerox Nuvera® 100/120/144 is capable of efficiently handling variable data jobs. The total time consumed to print a variable data job will vary as a function of variable coverage and element demographics (size and percentage of variable text vs. images/graphics).
Overall, system performance (click-to-clunk) is dependent upon many factors, including the variable data application and workflow, network environment, image quality settings, and RIP and print rates. Under certain circumstances, use of large, high-resolution images printed page-to-page in variable data applications will degrade RIP performance, in some cases to a degree which may affect system throughput.
Variable Information Software Limitations
Note: The following limitations are specific to variable information, which may not be inclusive of the entire system independent of whether a job includes variable data.
FreeFlow VI Interpreter
Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF)
PDF cannot be used as a direct input resource for the VI Interpreter. Direct printing of PDF files within a VIPP workflow is not supported. PDF files can be converted to PostScript (using an Adobe compliant driver) and the VIPP Resource Converter or other third party PDF to PostScript converter. PostScript is an input resource supported by the VI Interpreter.
The VI PDF Originator component of the VI Suite can output intelligent, interactive PDF files directly from a VIPP data file. For more information on the capabilities of the VI PDF Originator, contact your Xerox representative.
Support for VIPP may also be obtained by contacting the Variable Information and Solutions Services Group (VISSG). Customers may call (888) 550-6336.

Maximum Paper Size & Maximum Image Size The maximum paper size that can be placed on the platen is 12.6” x 18.5” / 320mm x 470mm. The maximum image size, however, is 12.0” x 18.0” / 305mm x 457mm.
Color
This is not a color scanner.
Scan-to-Email
There is no “scan-to-email” feature for this product.
Input Document substrates
Document substrates that are not recommend for use in the SDDF include envelopes, metallic cover stock, transparencies, label stock, silver photographic paper, tab stock, Never Tear (or other manufacturers’ equivalent), and those substrates whose intrinsic characteristics limit or prevent the separation of documents with friction-retard feeding mechanisms without causing mis-feeds, multi­feeds, jams or document damage.
Carbonless paper
Carbonless paper passed through the document feeder may be subject to marking in areas where the document feeder’s paper handling elements come in contact with the carbonless stock due to the “marking characteristics” of this stock. In extreme cases, this unintended marking could obscure information from the page being reproduced.
Hole punched paper
The SDDF may not reliably feed GBC and similar type documents without damage to the original and without geometric errors (skew or mis-registration). The workaround for GBC, spiral-bound and similarly punched papers is to rotate the documents to feed the unbound edge first, and then rotate the image.
File Size Limitation
Files saved as Multi-page TIFF are limited to 2GB in size. This limit may be reached after a few hundred images if the scanned originals contain many images and are scanned at 1200 x 1200 resolution.

Xerox Nuvera® 100/120/144 EA Digital Production System - Customer Expectations Document
Digital Front End (DFE) - FreeFlow™ DocuSP®
FreeFlow™ DocuSP® Workflow
The workflow is developed around the Xerox FreeFlow™ Document Services Platform (FreeFlow™ DocuSP®) technology, a very stable technology that has been developed over the years and installed in thousands of Xerox devices worldwide. This will allow training simplicity for current FreeFlow™ DocuSP® operators.
The FreeFlow™ DocuSP® controls all aspects of the system – scanning, “ripping,” and printing. It is an intuitive, easy-to-use digital front-end driven by the graphical user interface (GUI).
Xerox Nuvera
Key features of FreeFlow™ DocuSP® include:
Scan/Copy: scan ahead and program ahead capability; save and job edit capability.
Printer Management: Ability to manage paper supply and printer attributes.
Raster image processing (RIP) services: Supports multiple datastreams; PostScript, PDF, ASCII,
PCL, TIFF, PPML, LCDS and IPDS
Graphical User Interface: Provides the user interface to manage various print shop operations;
such as setting up and monitoring: queues, jobs management, administering security and accounting features, controlling the production process like the ability to manage paper supply and printer attributes.
Disk Overwrite: This feature is intended for the high security environments that not only want files
deleted after use, they want them erased, permanently. This implementation uses algorithms recommended by the Department of Defense (DOD) to ensure complete erasure of all information. The Disk Overwrite feature is based on the current FreeFlow™ DocuSP® data overwrite feature. In addition to data overwrite on FreeFlow™ DocuSP® disk partitioning, the function is also applied to all the other disks in the product including the image disk for copy, and print transient images.
DocuTech® Emulation Mode: This feature will simulate the image quality of the Xerox
DocuTech® 61XX product and is useful when a reproduction facility splits a job among more than one output device and requires the appearance of the output from multiple printers to look similar. This feature is also used when reprinting previously saved DocuTech® 61XX family jobs on the Xerox Nuvera
Security:
Transport Layer Security (TLS)/Secure Socket Layer (SSL): When submitting a job from a Web
UI, FreeFlow™ Print Manager or the IPP client, invoking this feature will prevent unauthorized interception of the job by encrypting the data sent over the network.
BAA Authentication: When enabled, this feature requires users to provide a valid username and password before being able to access the Web UI interface.
IP Filtering: This feature controls the built-in-firewall, allowing the system administrator to restrict network access to the system based on the originating IP address. The restriction applies to the following print submission protocols: LPR, IPP, HTTP, HTTPS, SMB Printing, Raw TCP Printing, FTP.
Microsoft ADS Authentication: When enabled, a user will be able to authenticate by means of locally managed user accounts as well as possess the ability to log on locally using an account defined in a Microsoft ADS domain.

Productivity Impacts
There are several factors that can affect the performance of the system RIP speed when processing print jobs. The following is a list of common situations that negatively can impact throughput.
The default print resolution of the system is 1200 dpi. 600 dpi printing may be adequate for your needs, so you can try setting that resolution to improve RIP performance of complex 1200 dpi jobs. 1200 dpi results in 4 times the internal image data of a comparable 600 dpi image that has to be transferred through the system. When the print resolution is changed from 1200 to 600 dpi, the stroke thickening value may also need to be changed from 1 to 0 to avoid excessive line thickening.
It is common to embed logos and watermarks in submitted print files. These are typically bitmap images that when embedded in a print stream (such as PostScript) can take a long time to process. Note also that resolution selections (e.g. 600 dpi vs. 1200 dpi) can have a significant further impact to processing of these types of embedded images. Consider the design of documents and impacts to printing speed in such cases. There are methods available, through PostScript for example, to cache these embedded images, process them once, and retain them as a resource for application on each page without having to render and scale them for each page. Refer to your PostScript reference manuals and DocuSP® reference manuals for information about caching.
Submission of multiple TIFF images simultaneously is a common application. There are several batch printing tools available on the market that enable this and most require the selection of a print driver for the target printer that these images files are submitted through. In these cases, the TIFF files are converted to a Printer Description Language (PDL, such as PostScript) by the batch tool by using the printer driver and then submitted to the printer, which in turn RIP that PDL and re-render the TIFF bitmap images back into
bitmaps. This is an inefficient process and can significantly slow the machine down. Xerox Nuvera includes a native TIFF interpreter and it can process TIFF files sent to it directly. Some of the batch tools on the market support a native TIFF submission capability. It may be referred to as a bypass mode or

something similar. If such a capability is available, the Xerox Nuvera®'s performance can be significantly improved by taking advantage of that. (Note that the TIFF interpreter does not automatically determine the embedded image size and apply it to an appropriate paper size. You can accomplish though by using printer and queue defaults programming)
LCDS and IPDS
LCDS Print Description Language
The Xerox LCDS Print Description Language (PDL) is a set of commands that you give to the printing system to define properties such as the appearance, output destination, and paper feed source for your LCDS print job. You can use LCDS PDL to do all of the following in your print jobs:
Change and mix font types on a page-to-page, line to line, or character-to-character basis. This allows you to customize printed output for specific needs; for example, emphasizing important headings by changing font styles and sizes.
Change text orientation and positioning on a page-to-page basis. This allows you to print characters along the width or length of the page with equal ease. The printing system can switch instantly, at a page boundary, between portrait (tall and narrow) and landscape (wide) page formats, combining the two styles within a single report.
Print a number of previously separate logical pages on the same physical page of a document.
Modify documents on a page to page basis by using copy modification entries (CME's) to
replace selected portions of text with other data, change fonts, or label copies, e.g. as "confidential."
Merge variable print data with forms stored on the system disk. This feature eliminates the need for forms overlays and most preprinted forms, as well as assuring perfect registration.
Print two different forms back to back (duplex) on one sheet of paper, thereby reducing paper costs. Additionally, this option offers potential savings in inventory, filing, storage, and mailing costs for computer generated material.
Feed paper either short edge first or long edge first to accommodate a variety of paper sizes.

recommended. Alternatively, resources can be sent over the network by ftp to the controller (or a UNIX file system) and imported from the file system to DocuSP®. Importing from a NFS mounted directory can also be performed if the resources are already relocated to that directory.
The TMODE command is ignored as the system always performs at optimum throughput.

IPDS Print Description Language
The DocuSP® IPDS gateway supports the Intelligent Printer Data Stream as defined by IBM. The IPDS DataStream performs printer control functions as well as sharing job status information back to the host. It is configured by means of a GUI, featuring drop-down menus, tabs, and icons from which to manage the DocuSP® IPDS functions. DocuSP® IPDS supports the TCP/IP and online channel interfaces.

Even in these opened environments, application validation is a requirement prior to installation. Other host types and 3rd party solutions are under evaluation and will be become available as validations are completed.
Sample current job is not supported for IPDS jobs. The IPDS host presumes full control over the job’s output, and this feature would cause incorrect page counts to be reported to the host. The DocuSP® GUI currently only supports this capability at the Printer Manager level, and is not able to set this capability for individual jobs or queues. Therefore, the DocuSP® GUI does not prevent selecting Sample Current Job. However, the request will not be honored for an IPDS job, and no warning message will be provided.
DocuPrint IPS 7.x Input Groups and 8.x Virtual Printer Media Lists cannot be imported into DocuSP® IPDS. DocuSP® IPDS Job Setups must be recreated.
The IPS Manager is not automatically informed when physical tray contents are changed at the DocuSP® printer manager. Instead, you must use the Refresh mechanism provided by the IPDS Tray/Bin Mappings dialog to display the latest mapping information.
DocuSP® Remote Workflow (DRW) does not support the IPS Manager.
IPDS jobs cannot be deleted or canceled from the DocuSP® Job Manager GUI. Instead, it is necessary
to cancel the current IPDS job using the “Cancel Incoming Job” button on the IPS Manager GUI. Note that this action is made easier now with the ‘Restart IPDS Processing’ option (a DocuSP® restart is no longer required).
Margins settings with positioning of data on the page can be adjusted at the media level. This is accomplished by using the comment field for the stock. The values are only applicable to IPDS.
Please refer to the IPDS User Guide (701P44135, July 2005) for additional information on the support
of IPDS.

COMMENTS
Auto tray switching & Load while run capability are supported. Do not open trays when the “Drawer in Use” light is lit.
Statement tabs and A5 tabs are not supported on configurations with the BFM or FTM devices. On configurations using the MFF, Statement tabs can only be output to the Top Tray in the finisher; they cannot be output to the Main Stacker.
For configurations with the MFF: Booklet Envelopes should be fed with flaps closed and on long edge, flap side down; Catalog Envelopes should be fed with flaps open, towards operator, with glue side down.
Paper handling reliability of coated papers is reduced below 120 gsm.
Trays do not feed to empty. When a feeder empty message is displayed, there could be as much as 80
sheets of stock remaining in the feeder tray (based on 20lb. bond / 75 gsm). This is to maintain the best possible reliability in the feeder mechanisms.
The use of Xerox media as listed in this document is recommended. Because there is a difference in technology between offset and digital printing, there is a difference in media properties required for optimum

Xerox papers and specialty media are digitally optimized (paper specs ­smoothness, formation, electrical properties, etc., for optimal image quality, toner adhesion and performance, and also precision sheeted - less contamination, better registration for use in Xerox digital equipment.
Two feed modules in tandem may be installed on the input side of the printer.
SPECIAL STOCKS
Carbonless
Xerox Carbonless Papers as listed in this document are the only recommended carbonless media. Only simplex printing is supported on this stock type. Running carbonless paper may require additional cleaning time by the CSE during service of the machine. This time will vary based on the percentage of carbonless stock run. In the 100% carbonless usage case, service time could be up to 60 additional minutes per service call at 150,000 prints
DocuCards®
DocuCards® can only be loaded 100 at a time in a tray. Nuvera trays feed until almost empty but not until empty, leaving 20~40 sheets remaining. When running DocuCards®, frequent reloading of the feeder trays will be required. DocuCards® can only be run to the Top Tray of the finisher. Some mis­stacking may occur as the DocuCards® catch on the edges of the stacked sheets®. When using DocuCards, it is recommended that you use a Tiltatron (available from CAS).
Reinforced stocks
Reinforced stocks such as Mylar tabs should be limited to 90 loaded in a tray at one time.
Transparencies
The tray capacity for removable stripe transparencies is 90 sheets. There is no constraint for feeding painted striped transparencies or stripeless transparencies.
Tab Jobs
Running tabs requires proper use of the supplied Tab Guides. For configurations with the BFM or FTM, jobs should be run with straight collated tabs. For configurations with the MFF, jobs must be run with reverse collated tabs (the number of segments should be 10 or less). For the MFF configurations, please also refer to the Crucial Performance Expectations section for comments on ‘Drilled Paper and Tab jobs’. Tab stock sizes supported are: Letter, 9” x 11,” 9.5” x 11”, A4
Envelopes
Envelopes should be limited to 60 loaded in a tray at one time. Nuvera trays feed until almost empty but not until empty, leaving 20~40 sheets remaining. When running envelopes frequent reloading of the feeder trays will be required. Very slight wrinkles (1/2 inch long) may occur on the trail edge of envelopes at the corners. Due to the nature of feeding envelopes with flap open, some mis-stacking may occur in the top tray as the envelopes catch on the open flaps Envelopes should be sent to the Top Tray only. For the MFF configurations, the maximum limit is 15.

The Xerox Nuvera® 100/120/144 EA Digital Production System is designed to render tints with a high degree of uniformity, and produce vignettes, sweeps and gradients that are smooth and even. Sophisticated design prevents unwanted process speed variations that plague lesser digital printing systems with banding problems. Halftoning algorithms and customized halftone dot designs take full advantage of the printer’s high addressability imaging system to render incredibly sharp, detailed images.
Black text quality is excellent for sizes as small as 4 point.
The Xerox Nuvera® 100/120/144 EA Digital Production System can print solid lines all the way down to 70 microns.
The Xerox Nuvera® 100/120/144 EA Digital Production System uses nested automated controls of dry ink, development, tone reproduction, and the internal environment to assure consistent printing. These closed loop process controls continuously test against the targets and adjust as required.
Images printed on Mylar tabs typically show degradation due to toner scatter. As with any printing process, artifacts will occur
on the Xerox Nuvera® 100/120/144 EA Digital Production System. These include streaks, mottle, banding, spots and edge deletions. For most jobs and clients, the expected level of artifacts is within the normal operational and component quality ranges of the system and will not affect the acceptability of the job.

Comment
The most discriminating judges of print quality may occasionally perceive a degree of mottle in large uniform flat tints. Extremely high humidity, low document area coverage or papers with poor formation can exacerbate mottle. If excellent uniformity is required, controlling environmental factors or an accelerated maintenance rate can usually satisfy demanding customers.
The control system is designed to run within a specific range of quality. Although some variation may be noticeable in specific cases, the closed loop controls will typically deliver very acceptable quality, consistently, predictably, and without operator intervention.
Maintenance procedures are available to mitigate these artifacts. Artifact­sensitive jobs should be monitored. Using stocks on the Recommended Media List and maintaining your environment will also help to minimize the occurrence of these artifacts.

Printer Module Capabilities
Print to Edge
This is not a print to edge system due to potential image quality defects on the edge of the page. The system default is set to 3 mm border erase. The border erase can be set to 0 mm, but the printer is subject to image quality limitations - which may be acceptable for some applications. Some non-standard and custom paper sizes may have a larger border region where image quality cannot be optimized.
SRA3 Printing
Printing on SRA3 can result in inboard and outboard edge image quality defects. The defects can range from slight mottle to high contrast deletions depending on the type and condition of the substrate being printed on. The reason for this is that the Transfer Assist Blade does not completely extend to the edges of SRA3 substrates. The blade does not make contact with the last 14mm at both the inboard and outboard edges of SRA3 substrates.
Area Coverage
The system is capable of continuous printing of pages up to 25% area coverage. When documents that exceed 25% area coverage per page are continuously printed, the customer may notice that the system does not print at the rated speed.
Xerographic Color Prints
Xerographic color originals cannot be run through the fuser.

Main Stacker 3000 (20 lb. bond / 75 gsm)
Stapler One or two staples, up to 100 sheets (20 lb. bond / 75 gsm)
System Compatibility
There are two models: the BFM has a top tray (also know as purge tray); the BFM Plus includes a bypass transport over the stacker
Both the BFM and the BFM Plus may be installed to enable continuous running with unload-while-run.
If one of these modules is the only installed finisher, it must be BFM (with the top tray).
Uncoated: 16lb. bond to 120lb. index (56 to 250 gsm) Coated: (90 to 250gsm)
1 or 2 BFM Plus’es may be installed to connect to a downstream FTM to add supported inline DFA finishing.
BFM / BFM Plus Operation
Continuous operation with unload while run is fully supported with a BFM and stacker is full or not ready (e.g. out of staples) the system can auto switch to another available stacker. Unloads can be configured to occur automatically at stacker limit, at job boundaries, at set or partition boundaries, or can be initiated manually via the Stacker Unload button or the GUI. A stacker's limit can be configured to any value between 200 and 3000 and each BFM stacker can be configured independently and differently. If desired, operators can also program jobs to specific stacker destinations.
Bypass via BFM Plus
Bypass to a downstream finishing device is a capability of the BFM Plus
BFM Plus installation. When a

Output
Paper sizes supported to the main tray (stapled and unstapled):
Process direction - 7.0 to 18.5 in. (178 mm to 470 mm) Cross Process direction - 8.0 to 12 in. (203 mm to 305 mm)
Smaller sizes (down to A5 and Statement) or larger sizes (including SRA3) can be run to the top tray.
Mixed sized output allows stacking of different size pages, both in the process and cross-process
direction, in a single job.
When stapling sets with mixed size stock, the stock must be the same dimension in the Across Feed direction, and the dimension differences should be within 13mm (½”) in the feed direction.
To have the BFM staple correctly, the output must be 1-N facedown.
Envelopes can only be sent open flap trailing to the Top Tray, and should be limited to 15, or mis-
stacking may occur.
The BFM / BFM Plus does not offset paper sizes larger than 11”x17" / A3. This means that 12”x18” or 12x18.5” cannot be offset. For these sizes, the software ignores any offset programming selection, and runs without offsetting.
Banner and slip sheets should be greater than or equal to 90 gsm (24 lb bond)
Slip-sheets must be the same size as the body sheets
Stapler capacity is reduced for coated papers and paper heavier than 20 lb. bond (75 gsm).
For reliable stacking, stack size should be limited for certain jobs:
--Offset single sheet jobs should be limited to 100 sheets. (20 lb bond or 75 gsm)
--Stapled sets of 15 sheets or smaller are limited by machine control to 100 sets.
--Stapled sets of coated stocks stack less well, and should be managed to 50 by the operator.
--Stapled sets should be offset stacked.
--The stack height limitation can be operator adjusted.
Automatic bin limits control the number of sheets collected and compiled in the finisher when running unfinished sets to optimize the set drop performance and improve job recovery.
Tabs
The tabs cross process length must be the same as the body of the document. The tab can be no longer than 0.5” (13mm) in the process direction beyond the body of the document. Tabs sized for use with 8.5” x 11” and A4 stock, long edge feed, are supported
Transparencies
Transparencies run to the stacker must have a slip-sheet between each one.
Stapling
The BFM is delivered with a 5000 staple cartridge of 100-sheet staples installed in each of the two
Staples for up to 30 sheets and for up to 100 sheets are available. Stapled jobs over 100 sheets are

Additional notes related to DocuPrint migration
The BFM is a set-level device. It is designed to collect sheets into set-sized chunks (using the compiling station), optionally staple and/or offset the chunks, and then place those on to the stack below. It can reliably stack unfinished output, and it supports unloading and auto-switching to another available BFM Stacker; however, the following should be noted:
Since it is a set-level device, boundaries between chunks in a stack may be visible.
- 47 -
Xerox Nuvera® 100/120/144 EA Digital Production System - Customer Expectations Document
In the event of a jam in the finisher, it may be necessary to discard waste sheets of partial chunks that have collected in the compiling station. This is kept to a minimum, and is only necessary in a limited number of conditions.
The maximum chunk size can be modified to meet workflow needs; lowering it reduces potential job recovery waste but increases the number of chunk boundaries, thus affecting stack appearance.
Small set sizes, whether offset or not, require skipped pitches to be inserted to enable the unloading of the compiling station onto the stack below. If the set/subset size is less than 4 sheets in a 144 PPM Nuvera
The BFM can offset between sets, and even within sets (subset offsetting), responding to embedded “jog” or “offset” commands in the print data stream.
The BFM supports the use of ‘jam offset sheets’ for identifying where jam interrupts have occurred.
Since the BFM uses a compiling station, care must be taken to follow job recovery instructions displayed
on the GUI so as to avoid mixing unusable output with good output, and risking delivery of duplicate output.
Requests to unload the stacker (via the door button or the GUI) are honored at the next set or chunk boundary reached, which could be as high as 100 sheets plus 25 sheets of in-process scheduled pages after the time the unload was requested.
Any unload (initiated by the operator or due to stack full) will result in a switch to an alternate available BFM stacker if present

, or less than 3 sheets in a 120/100 PPM Nuvera®, the system will not achieve full rated speed.
Media Size Table
Note: The speeds indicated in the table below are the maximum attainable speeds under normal conditions of use, when delivered to the top tray. Delivery to the main stacker can achieve equivalent speeds, except for those paper sizes (as are noted below with an *) for which sheets are not buffered in the BFM compiler transport between sets. Those papers require up to 4 skips between sets, and that needs to be factored into performance expectations.

Notes related to DocuPrint migration
The DS5000 is a sheet stacking device. It is designed to optimally deliver sheets one at a time into a neat stack, and optionally offset between the sheets; however the following should be noted:
The stack height limit cannot be adjusted.
When full, it will switch to another available DS5000 stacker, if present.

Xerox Nuvera® 100/120/144 EA Digital Production System - Customer Expectations Document
An operator can not request an unload dynamically while the DS5000 is in operation. To unload, the operator must wait until the stacker becomes full, or pause the machine.
The DS5000 does not honor “jog” or “offset” requests embedded in the print data stream (i.e. the DS5000 does not support subset offsetting).
The DS5000 can offset any size sets at full rated speed, without incurring additional skips.
The DS5000 does not support the use of ‘jam offset sheets’.

GBC Fusion Punch II with Offset Stacker
The GBC Fusion Punch ll provides inline printer punching combining printing and punching into one step. Single sheets are punched and emerge ready to be finished into lay flat documents. These types of documents are typically bound with coil, wire or plastic comb binding and will lay flat when opened.
A wide variety of hole punch patterns are available. The die sets are lightweight and do not require setup adjustment time when changed. The operator can easily replace them. The attached stacker can offset stack up to 2,500 sheets preparing each document for immediate binding. The Fusion Punch II can also be equipped with an optional Bypass Stacker. This allows the operator to empty one stacker while the other stacker is in use.
A Finisher Transport Module is required for in-line connectivity to the printer.

Xerox DB120-D Document Binder
The Document Binder DB120-D uses a unique thermal binding technology combined with pre-formed covers to create a high quality professionally bound document. The DB120-D binds 8.5” x 11” or A4 documents up to 120 pages in a variety of attractive covers. You can custom order imprinted covers with your logo or a particular design. The pre-formed cover wraps around the internal pages to produce a perfect bound document with a commercial look and feel. The document pages fit neatly and uniformly into the bind for the perfect bound look with no trimming needed. The usability improves due to the hinged spine scoring which allows pages to lie flat when opened. The book binding adhesive is reinforced with a special mesh/cloth material to ensure a strong, consistent bind with no mess or oozing.
A Finisher Transport Module is required for in-line connectivity to the printer. A BFM Plus or a Xerox Document Stacker 5000 is highly recommended for stacking capability.

Xerox Manual and Book Factory
The Xerox Manual + Book Factory (MBF) is comprised of the:
C.P. Bourg BBF2005 – perfect binder
C.P. Bourg BBR – out feed conveyor for the BBF2005
C.P. Bourg BBF2005 Input – input module for the BBF2005
C.P. Bourg BPRF – perforate, rotate, fold module (optional)
Challenge CMT-330 – three-side trimmer (optional)
C.P. Bourg BDFx (with optional peripherals BCFx, SQEDG, and Gateway) – booklet maker (currently
not available with Nuvera
Documents flow directly from the Xerox printer to the MBF without the bottleneck associated with the traditional offline binding process. The CP Bourg BBF2005 Perfect Binder and BPRF module match the output speed of the digital production press.
The CP Bourg Perforate, Rotate, Fold (BPRF) module receives the printed sheet of paper from the printer and immediately perforates the sheet with a micro-perforation across it center. The sheet is then turned 90 folded on the perforation. The printed, perforated and folded paper then exits the BPRF and enters the accumulating section (input section) of the Bourg Perfect Binder BBF2005. This process enables productive, cost effective 2-up duplex signature printing.
The CP Bourg BBF 2005 Perfect Binder is the integrated perfect binder that produces professionally finished books quickly and easily. The Perfect Binder compiles the pages (book block) from the BPRF, jogs the pages into position and then vibrates them into alignment. The pages are clamped together and run across a milling station, which roughs the spine edge for superior adhesive adherence. After the adhesive is applied, the book block is moved to the cover mounting station. The cover is registered, applied in precise position, clamped to the book block and delivered to the output tray.
The BBF2005 perfect binder dynamically senses the thickness of the book block during the clamping operation, making it ideal for printing short runs of books with varying thickness. The book is then ready to be trimmed. As an option, the Book Factory can also be equipped with an inline trimmer, the Challenge CMT-330. The CMT 330 is a three-side trimmer designed for the on-demand printing environment. It features full digital control of the trimming process - servomotors control all adjustments normally done by hand with a traditional trimmer.

Post-process Uses of Xerox Nuvera® Output
The following post-process characteristics and usages for Xerox Nuvera® output have been evaluated.
Item
Permanence
Overprint in xerographic printer
Overprint in ink jet printer
Xerox Nuvera® 100/120/144 EA
Digital Production System
Xerographic prints are as permanent as the paper on which they are printed. Prints cannot be successfully fed through a xerographic printer for overprinting. Prints can be successfully overprinted on an ink jet printer, depending on the area coverage of the print and the wetting characteristics of the ink. Wetting issues are most likely when printing over an area of high dry ink coverage. They may be resolved by selecting a different setting on the ink jet printer to affect the amount of ink printed or the speed of printing.
Comment
The U.S. Patent Office accepts xerographic prints as permanent records. Any product with a wax-based fusing system would produce the same result.
