shock or fire may occur.

Use electricity directly from a power outlet (AC 100 V to 120V, or AC 220V to 240V). Do not put

many loads on one electrical output. Otherwise, heat may be generated and cause fire.

Be sure to use an outlet with an earth terminal and use the terminal correctly. Otherwise, electrical

shock or fire may occur.

Follow the instructions below when handling the power cable.

{ Do not modify the cable. { Do not put heavy objects on the cable. { Do not bend, twist or pull the cable. { Do not wire the cable near equipment that generates heat.

4.2 USING MEDIA

This section describes details on available media for the printer.

4.2.1 Media Type

The type and quality of the media affect the results of drawing enormously. Refer to the description below and use the appropriate media for your purpose. The following are the recommended media for the printer. Select the appropriate media for your purpose.

For more information about the recommended media, contact your local Xerox Dealer. Problems that occur due to use of media other than those recommended are not guaranteed.

When using recommended media, the setting values for the printing quality is set for each media type. When printing on media other than those specified, information regarding proper settings for the media

type and settings for the product should be found on the instructions for the media. If not contact the supplier of the media.

Notes

4.2.2 Cautions on Handling Media

When you handle media, please pay attention to the following.

Use recommended media in an appropriate environment. Following are the appropriate temperature

and humidity ranges for printing.

Recommended working environment 74°F(23°C) 40% to 70% Rate of change Within 36°F (2°C) per hour Within 5% per hour

Do not use creased, damaged, torn, curled, or wrapped media. The size of the recommended sheets can change at a fixed ratio according to the temperature changes

of the working environment. Before using sheet media, place the sheet in the working environment for at least 30 minutes, to have it match to the temperature of the working area.

Printing before the media could accommodate to the printing environment may cause media jams due

to slippage or creases. This also adversely affects the quality of printing.

Media has a printable side and a non-printable side. If you print on a not printable side, blurring or

slight touching may occur.

Do not touch the printable side of media. Moisture or oil from hands affects the printing quality. Do not leave the printer for a long time with media loaded. The media may curl resulting in

misalignment, media jams, or decreased printing quality. In particular, avoid this in winter, dry seasons, or during final printing.

Do not lose the box or wrapping bag for storing media.

When storing media, pay attention to the following.

Notes

Do not store media in high temperature, high humidity, or direct sunlight. Store sheet media in the original bag after unpacking. Unused roll media must be removed from the scroller, rewound tightly, and stored in the original

wrapping bag and the box.

Do not wet media.

4.3.2.9 Weaving Menu

4 Printer Operation

Without weaving ON, an image is completed (formed) by printing a series of complementary rectangular shaped stripes (bands, swaths, passes). Inherent to classic inkjet printing is that ink drying effects, stepping mismatch, miss firing nozzles show up in the printed image via ink bleeding and various types of banding. By switching ON one of the weave patterns you will give the traditional rectangular print swaths a wave-shaped look that will save you time and boost your output quality. Difficult images will print smoother, banding will be suppressed (neutralized) and you will have to spend less time fine-tuning your printer to create great looking output.

Moreover, when using wave-tuned profiles, you will be able to boost your printer’s colour gamut as the i² (intelligent interweaving) technology allows depositing more ink, helping you to achieve higher colour densities.
