Main Components

• Print Engine (includes User Interface, Bypass Tray, and Nationalization Kit).

• Xerox FreeFlow Print Server.

Finishing and Feeding

• Finisher:

o Standard Finisher or Booklet-Maker Finisher o The Standard Finisher has a 200- sheet post-fuse Inserter, a Stacker Tray and a

variable-length Stapler and hole punch (2/3 XNA, 2/4 XE & DMO)

o The Booklet-maker Finisher has the same staple and hole punch features of the

Standard Finisher as well as the 200-sheet post-fuse Inserter Tray. It has a stack capacity of 2,000 sheets and the ability to create saddle-stitched booklets up to 20 sheets from 8.5 x 11”/A4, 8.5 x 14”, 11 x 17”/A3 and 12 x 18”/SRA3 media.

o The optional Folding Unit is available for the Standard and Booklet-making Finishers.

• The Standard Finisher is available with an optional Folder Module for the Finisher (C/Z fold &

Engineering Z fold)

• High Capacity Feeder (2 drawer) (HCF)

• Oversized High Capacity Feeder (1 drawer) (OHCF)

The Xerox 4112 EPS cannot be upgraded to the Xerox 4127 EPS.

High Capacity Feed Units (optional)

There are two optional feeding options.

• Two tray high capacity feeder (HCF) that adds 4,000 A4 or 8.5” x 11” sheet capacities to the

system.

• One tray Oversized High Capacity Feeder (OHCF) that adds 2,000 sheet capacity for media

up to SRA3 or 13” x 19.2”.

NOTE: The two optional feeders cannot be attached to the printer system at the same time. The two units must be installed (or de-installed) by a trained Xerox Service Representative.

New Features

The following highlights are compared to previous Xerox offerings such as the Xerox 4110 and Xerox 4595.

• Speed – higher speed option: 125 ppm.

• Improved booklet-maker finisher – up to 20 sheets (80 imposed pages) for larger

booklets/calendars and other applications.

• Improved Registration - +/- 0.7mm front-to-back registration.

• Coated Stocks – ability to run a set of approved Xerox coated stocks from all trays.

• Expanded Meters – more extensive meter information available for customers to understand

how they are using the Xerox 4112/4127.

• Multi-Sheet Sensors – jams are detected sooner with less waste in paper, toner, jam

clearance time.

• Density control – better control in all environments through improved hardware/software.

Optimum Product Performance

This section will help you understand the performance and capabilities of the Xerox 4112 EPS and Xerox 4127 EPS.

All references to media capabilities in this document are based on centerline definitions of approved paper. “Centerline paper” identifies the stock at the middle of the range of stocks that will deliver optimum performance for a given characteristic. Other paper weights and brands may alter results.

Media Type Xerox Equivalent

Uncoated paper North America - Xerox 4200 (75 g/m2/20 lbs)

Print Volume Range

This product family is designed for an average monthly print volume (AMPV):

EPS Maximum Duty Cycle* AMPV Conditions

Xerox 4112/4127 EPS 600,000 pages per month 80,000 - 350,000

8.5 in x 11 in/A4

pages per month

* Maximum Duty Cycle refers to the maximum monthly print volume supported under standard vendor supplied service (single shift coverage) and defines the upper end of the expected print volume for the machine. This volume is not sustainable month over month but can be achieved occasionally for peak printing times.

Customers who consistently run volumes above the stated Average Monthly Print Volume (AMPV) should expect a significant change in machine reliability or performance. Customers should consider higher volume machines or multiple machines if average monthly volume approaches the maximum duty cycle on a consistent basis.

The number of prints between service calls is dependant upon the following factors:

• Monthly output volume

• Throughput materials (paper)

• Environment (heat, humidity and ventilation)

• High toner density and area coverage

• Image quality requirements

• Operator training
