Getting to know the WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM
This manual contains operating instructions for the user and the system administrator for the XEROX WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM 8825/8830/8850/510 Series and 721P with version 10.0 AccXES firmware loaded into the Controller.
Your XEROX WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM is an integrated solution for electronically scanning and then printing images for engineering or architectural use. The WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM consists of the WIDE FORMAT SCAN SYSTEM and Control Panel for capturing images, the Controller for processing these images, and XEROX WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM 8825, 8830, 8850, 510 Series, 721P or XEROX WIDE FORMAT X2 TECH Printers for making good quality copies of the captured images in engineering or architectural sizes.
Table 1 below shows the various WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM configurations. An optional Online Folder is available for each of these configurations to provide further processing of the printed output.

The WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM has two modes of operation ­COPY and SCAN. In the COPY mode, documents are scanned, temporarily stored in memory or on the Controller hard disk, and then sent to the local Printer as soon as the Printer is available. In the SCAN mode, documents are scanned and then stored on the Controller hard disk for later retrieval over a network by a remote device. The WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM allows concurrent printing, copying, and scanning to the network, so there is no need to wait for the Printer to finish before scanning the next document.
NOTE: The XEROX WIDE FORMAT X2 TECH and Synergix Digital X2 TECH Solution does not support copying at this time.
The XEROX FORMAT COPY SYSTEM contains Dynamic Background Suppression technology. Dynamic Background Suppression examines a sample of the document intelligently and makes automatic image quality adjustments that yield a good copy even from poor original documents. The document width is automatically detected and the centering of a scanned original for most opaque documents is adjusted. Translucent documents (transparencies, clear film, etc.) in most cases will not be detected.
A new Productivity feature introduced with version 10.0 firmware and requires a new WIDE FORMAT SCAN SYSTEM with a new Document Feed-in Tray. Sensors built into the Feed Tray measure the document width without doing a prescan, which increase the document and copy throughput thereby increasing productivity.
For documents that require additional adjustments to obtain the best copy quality, a variety of image quality and reduction/enlargement settings are available. All of these functions are controlled from the Scanner Control Panel. This Control Panel, which is mounted on top of the Scanner, receives all power and information from the Scanner.

Background Suppression
Background Suppression
The Background Suppression option enables you to make adjustments for documents that contain poor contrast between the foreground image and the background.
Four Background Suppression choices are provided: Off This setting disables Background Suppression. All the
characteristics of the original document with minimum alteration are reproduced on the copy. Choose this selection when:
The lead edge of the document is very different from the rest of the document (e.g., the lead edge contains a blac k border).
Maps with grayscale or color content may copy best in this mode.
To retain more light color information such as light gray or yellow
NOTE: If Photo or Color is selected as the Original, Type, the Off setting is automatically selected. The contrast can still be adjusted by pressing the key(s) beneath Image Quality, Copy.
(Light) This setting works best for documents on translucent or transparent media, such as vellum (tracing paper) or film, or with medium levels of colored background on opaque media or for documents. Such documents have a higher contrast between the foreground and background than dark documents, but less contrast than normal documents.
(Dark) Use this setting for documents with a dark background or with medium contrast between the foreground and background. In this mode, the background is not suppressed, but the foreground image is improved to increase the contrast.
Auto (factory default) - The Scanner automatically adjusts the image quality parameters to obtain the bes t copy.
NOTE: All three Background Suppression settings can be adjusted further by changing the contrast setting in the Image Quality and Copy area.

Document quality
Document quality
Document quality is the primary factor in obtaining good copies from scanned originals. For most documents, the four Background Suppression key selections with DYNAMIC BACKGROUND REMOVAL enabled, which is the default setting, provides an accurate copy. Some documents, however, require manual adjustments to the settings to
This section explains the DYNAMIC BACKGROUND REMOVAL feature, describes the characteristics of good quality and bad quality documents, provides tips for preparing and organizing documents for scanning, and summarizes the procedures for scanning documents of different quality types.
Dynamic Background Removal
NOTE: DYNAMIC BACKGROUND Removal cannot be diasable (unchecked) when using the Productivity mode.
The DYNAMIC BACKGROUND REMOVAL eliminates the need to make additional manual adjustments for most input documents. Reference Menu, CONFIGURATION > IMAGE ENHANCEMENT.
This feature allows the system to dynamically adjust itself for each document. There are two modes associated with this feature:
When DYNAMIC BACKGROUND REMOVAL is enabled, the image is continually monitored as it is being scanned and the copy quality parameters adjusted to achieve the best copy quality.
When DYNAMIC BACKGROUND REMOVAL is not enabled, the process takes a 0.70 inch (17.8 mm) snapshot over the full width of the image after the first 1.5 inches scanned. It uses this fixed area to set the copy parameters for the remainder of the image being scanned. This operating mode should be used for documents with consistent background throughout.
DYNAMIC BACKGROUND REMOVAL only monitors the document in the process direction, from the lead edge to the trail edge. It cannot make adjustment from the left side to the right side of the document. For example, if the input document is dark, DYNAMIC BACKGROUND
XEROX WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM Document quality 31
REMOVAL will automatically make the appropriate compensation to optimize the reproduction of the dark details. If the input document has a faded background, the feature will enable a faithful reproduction of the original. However, the faded background must be inserted with the fading running in the process direction with the darker side being inserted first.
In some cases, you may wish to optimize the settings for individual documents. For example, you may not wish to faithfully reproduce paste-up lines, or other artifacts on the original. For this reason, additional controls are available for selection of document type, document image quality, desired output darkness, and background suppression.
The DYNAMIC BACKGROUND REMOVAL feature, when enabled, uses information about the document captured during the scanning process to set image quality settings. The system automatically adjusts for the darkness of the background and the image content through out the length of the document. When not enabled, it only uses the information in a 0.70 (17.8 mm) area over the width of the document to establish the image quality settings. Therefore, best results can be obtained if the document is fed in with an edge that has a representative sampling of both the background and the foreground image.
The Dynamic Background Removal feature provides an accurate copy for most documents including blueline, blueprints, color line art/text, and mixed documents containing combinations of halftone and art, or photograph and art. For documents with inverted images, the INVERT function should be enabled. Refer to "Inverting an image" in the "Special features keys" section for instructions on the INVERT function.
Automatic edge detection and document centering
The AUTOWIDTH /AUTOCENTER features enable the system to automatically detect the width and center of the document. In cases such as transparencies or translucent documents where automatic detection is not possible, a message will prom pt you to enter the width manually. You then must center the document before inserting it into the Scanner.
You can enable/disable the AUTOWIDTH/CENTER feature at any time. Refer to "Scanner Control" in the "Main Menu" section of this manual for more information.
PRODUCTIVITY MODE: This feature is made available with version 10.0 AccXES software, and requires a new WIDE FORMAT SCAN SYSTEM with the Productivity Document Feed Tray with the discrete width sensors. This feature measures the document width without doing a pre­scan, requiring the operator to manually align the document within the media size guidelines on the Feed -in Tray . The width sensors eliminate the need for a prescan thereby increasing the overall throughput of the system resulting in higher productivity
When the PRODUCTIVITY MODE is used the operator must select the media series, ANSI, ARCH, ISO A, CUSTOM, etc since the number of sensors that can be provided can not monitor every media series. The PRODUCTIVITY mode can be enabled/disabled at anytime. Refer to "Scanner Control" in the "Main Menu" section of this manual for more information.

Foregroun
Determining document quality
Some documents require additional adjustments to obtain the best copy quality. Documents of good quality are easy to scan and usually give good copies on the first attempt. Documents of bad quality may require more than one attempt, using different settings, to obtain the best copy quality.
What is a good quality document?
What is a bad quality document?
Backgroun
4"
A good quality document has all of these characteristics:
The contrast between the foreground (the image of interest) and the background is high. The foreground may be color or black.
The foreground is a solid, high -density black or dark color (or dark blue on a blueline, or dark brown on a sepia). The foreground density is uniform. There is only one kind of foreground (e.g., there are no pencil additions on a blueline). If the document is of mixed type, the foreground is color.
If the document is white on black or white on blue, the foreground is clear white or nearly white, and the background is a solid, high -density black or dark color.
The background is white or light -colored and is free of speckling or other noise. The background density is uniform.
The document has no creases, folds, stains, tears or extraneous marks that the Scanner might interpret as foreground.
Bad quality documents often require special attention to achieve a usable image. Fortunately, image processing technology is incorporated that can extract acceptable images from documents degraded by many kinds of problems.
A bad quality document has one or more of the following problems:
4"
The foreground is light (e.g., a faded or overexposed blueprint or light pencil lines).
The foreground has variable density (i.e., some parts are dark and some parts are light).
The foreground consists of two or more densities or colors (e.g., pencil additions on an ink drawing, or pencil or ink additions on a sepia).
The background is medium da rk or dark (e.g., underexposed blueprint).
The background has variable density.
The background has speckles.
XEROX WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM Document quality 33
The document has creases, folds, stains, tears, or extraneous marks that the Scanner might interpret as foreground.
Preparing documents
When preparing documents for scanning, keep the following points in mind:
If documents have been stored rolled up, flatten them out. They will be much easier to handle if they have been stored flat for at least eight hours. The longer that documents have been stored flat, the easier it will be to scan them. Rolled-up documents will typically roll back up after being scanned.
If possible, sort the documents you are going to scan according to these guidelines:
First, group the documents by media type -bond, vellum or
film. Within each document type, you can further group the documents by image type (e.g., blueprint, pencil, sepia, line, photo, mixed (photo and line, blueline and pencil), and so forth).
Line documents contain lines or text against a highly
contrasted background.
Photo documents are continuous -tone or grayscale images.
Mixed documents contain both line elements and photo
elements or halftone images.
Scanning groups of documents of the same type or series
(ANSI, ARCH, etc.) minimizes the number of changes you will need to make to the Image Quality settings.
Next, divide the documents in each media type group into "good" and "bad" piles based on your evaluation of their foreground and background quality. See "What is a good quality document?" and "What is a bad quality document?" in this section for assistance in doing so.
By grouping the documents in this way, you can scan the good quality documents first. Then you can focus on the bad quality documents, which will require more attention.
Next, determine if any of the documents are inverted (i.e., white or light foreground against dark background). If any documents are inverted, refer to "Inverting an image" in the "Special features keys" section.
Finally, sort the documents by size or series (ANSI, ARCH, etc.). This minimizes the number of times you will need to change the Media Selection, Output Format settings when using preset or custom format sizes.

The Background Suppression enables you to make adjustments for documents that contain poor contrast between the foreground image and the background. Background Suppression monitors the pre-scans image, to ensure the best image quality possible. In the PRODUCTIVITY mode, there is no prescan, therefore Background Suppression is done while the document is being scanned.

Controlling the scan
Several settings are available for controlling how the Scanner starts and finishes a scan. These settings are accessible from the SCANNER CONTROL option of the CONFIGURATION menu.
SCANNER CONTROL
AUTOSCAN
DOCUMENT RETURN: MODE:
When making a copy, you need to be aware of these settings. If any of these settings have been changed from the default settings, the Scanner may not operate according to your expectations.
Below is a brief summary of the scan control settings. For complete information about these settings, refer to "Scanner Control" in the "Main Menu" section of this manual.
AUTOSCAN AUTOSCAN enabled is the default setting. Normally, the AUTOSCAN
mode is enabled. When it is enabled, the Scanner automatically begins the scanning of a document when the document is inserted. If AUTOSCAN is disabled, the Scanner transports the document to the starting position and then waits for you to press the Start key before beginning the scan.
DOCUMENT RETURN
PRODUCTIVITY — ARCH
FRONT
FRONT is the default setting. When the DOCUMENT RETURN feature is set to FRONT, the Scanner returns the document to the front or
XEROX WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM Making copies 47
READY position at the completion of the scan. When the DOCUMENT RETURN feature is set to REAR, the Scanner delivers the document to the rear Stacker at the completion of the scan.
Some documents will always exit to the rear at the completion of the scan regardless of the DOCUMENT RETURN setting. These documents include:
Thick documents
Documents longer than 5 feet (1.52 meters)
Documents over 36 inches (914 mm) in width
MODE: MANUAL The user must enter the width of the document manually, and very
carefully center the document when inserting it into the Scanner. The document is prescanned in this mode.
AUTOWIDTH AUTOWIDTH enabled is the default set ting. When AUTOWIDTH is
selected, the Scanner automatically detects the width of the document.AUTOWIDTH/AUTOCENTER. The document is prescanned in this mode.
When AUTOWIDTH/AUTOCENTER is enabled, the Scanner automatically centers the image and automatically detects the document width.
PRODUCTIVITY - ANSI PRODUCTIVITY is only available on Scanners with AccXES firmware
10.0 or higher, Scanner firware 3.2.5 and the Productivity Document Feed Tray that includes discrete width sensors. PRODUCTIVITY - ANSI is the default. Other media type selections include ARCH, ISO A, ISO B, JIS B and CUSTOM. These selections must be made so that the sensors detect the correct width. This feature eliminates the prescan width measurement, which increases document throughput speed resulting in greater productivity. CUSTOM requires standard media sizes to be entered in CUSTOM MEDIA FORMATS.
AUTOWIDTH and AUTOWITH/AUTOCENTER are not available in this mode.

Making a copy with the default settings
When the default document settings are used, the display indicates that the roll of media that best fits the size of the original document will be automatically selected. The reduction/ enlargement setting is 100%, so the copy will be the same size as the original document. The copy quantity is set to 1.
The illustration below shows the READY screen in its default state.
READY TO COPY INSERT DOCUMENT
AUTO
100.0%
NOTE: Many document settings other than the default settings are possible. For example, the options keys on the Scanner Control Panel allow you to control the media selection, image quality and reduction/enlargement percentage. The Transform special features key allows you adjust the margins around the image, specify the position of the image on the media, and transform the image into a mirror and/or inverted image. Refer to the applicable sections of this guide for detailed information about the many document settings available to you.
NOTE: When scanning to print, the copy is made using the current Printer processing defaults including margins. If the image being scanned is the same size as the media being used, set the margins to 0 (zero) to prevent the image from bieng clipped or select a larger media size.
To make a copy using the default document settings:
1. Insert the original document face down and centered on the Document Feed-in Tray of the Scanner.
NOTE: If the document is not exactly centered and the AUTOCENTER feature is enabled, the Scanner will automatically correct the problem electronically. The resulting image will still be correctly positioned on the output media. If AUTOWIDTH/AUTOCENTER is disabled, you will need to carefully center the document when inserting it. Refer to "Controlling the scan" on the previous page. AUTOWIDTH/AUTOCENTER is not available in the PRODUCTIVITY mode, requiring the user to manually align the document within the appropriate document size guidelines on the Feed-in Tray.

2. Gently move the document forward until the lead edge engages the feed rolls. The Scanner transports the document to the
50 Making copies XEROX WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM
starting position. It then scans the document. The resulting image is electronically sent to the Printer and your copy is printed.
NOTE: If AUTOSCAN is disabled, you will need to press the Start key to begin the scan. Refer to "Controlling the scan" on the previous page.
NOTE: If the PRODUCTIVITY mode is enabled the document will start scanning immediately. If the PRODUCTIVITY mode is not enabled, the document will pre-scan a small distance then reverse itself before starting the complete scan.
3. When the document is returned to the READY position, do one of the following:
Pull the document to remove it. Lift the Thick Document Lever to remove fragile or thick documents.
Press the Start key on the Scanner Control Panel to scan the document again.
NOTE: If DOCUMENT RETURN is set to REAR, the document is delivered to the rear Stacker. Some documents exit to the rear Stacker regardless of the DOCUMENT RETURN setting. Refer to "Controlling the scan" on the previous page.
Making a copy the same size as the original document
1. Set the Media Selection Source to Auto. The Auto indicator lamp illuminates. This setting allows the WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM to automatically select the available media roll that best fits the image width.
NOTE: If the correct media size is not loaded, the next larger size will be used.
2. Select the Media Selection, Type. The default setting is Bond.
3. Set the Media Selection, Output Format to Synchro. This setting cuts the media to the same length as the original document.
4. Set Reduce/Enlarge to Preset. If the size is not already set to 100%, use the Previous and Next keys to select a reduction and press the Enter key.
5. Insert the document face down into the Scanner. If the scan does not start automatically, press the Start key.
NOTE: To set the scan to begin automatically, refer to "Scanner Control" in the "Main Menu" section.
NOTE: If the image needs to be rotated to fit on the selected media size, additional processing time is required. If possible, feed the original
XEROX WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM Making copies 51
image so that no image rotation is required. This will achieve the fastest processing time. For example, if an A-size copy is required on a 12 -inch (30.48 cm) roll, feed the original with the short edge first, not the long edge first. If a B-size copy is required on a 17 -inch roll, feed the document with the long edge first, not the short edge first.
The Scanner scans the document and the Printer (if not already busy) prints the copy immediately. If the Printer is busy when the scan is made, the copy will be printed when the Printer becomes available.
When the Scanner detects the trail edge of the document, the Printer automatically cuts the media so that the copy is the same length as the original document.
Fitting the image to a fixed copy size
The scanned image can be automatically fit onto a predefin ed size of media.
1. Set the Media Selection, Source to Auto. The Auto indicator lamp illuminates. This setting automatically selects the available media roll that best fits the image width.
2. Select the Media Selection, Type of media. The default setting is Bond.
3. Set the Media Selection, Output Format to Preset and select the desired page size. This setting cuts the media to a previously defined length that the operator chooses.

Scanning when using a Folder
Scanning when using a Folder
When using a Folder, the document must be inserted in the correct orientaqtion in order to have the title block visible after the copy is folded. Refer to the Finisher key information in the Special feature keys section of this manual for additional information to set up the desired fold and other Finisher options. Documents larger than 80 inches (2.1M) can only be partially folded.
When using the Reduce/Enlarge feature and a Folder, you must orient and insert the document title block in the same orientation as the resulting enlargement or reduction copy size. In addition, the recommended media should be used.
For example: the job requires that an A (A4) document be enlarged to a C (A2) document. To have the title block be visible after folding, the A (A4) document must be inserted as if it were a C (A2) document.
You may want to refer to "CUSTOM R/E PRESETS " in the "Main Menu, COPY OPTIONS" section, and set up the REDUCTION/ENLARGEMENT default to show the standard reduction and enlargement. Set the reduction /enlargement to display A to C (A4 to A2) above the keys.
To ensure that the selected fold is made correctly, it is critical that the document be centered on the Scanner Document Feed Tray when scanning.
For additional folding and title block positioning information, refer to the Folder Operator Manual or the Folding Supplement CD.

Scanning oversized documents
An oversized document is defined as any document that is larger in width or length than a standard E-size (A0) document.
LONG DOCUMENTS
Operator assistance will be required to guide and control the position of a long document to prevent it from skewing or moving from side-to-sid e as it feeds through the scanner. Documents longer than 36 inches (914 mm) will always exit to the rear of the Scanner.
WIDE DOCUMENTS
Documents wider than 36 inches (914 mm) but less than 42 inches (1057 mm) can be scanned. However, the scanned image area, of a document centered on the Feed -in Tray, is 36 inches (914 mm). Any image beyond the 36 inch (914 mm) width will be clipped off on the output copy.
When a document wider than 36 inches (914 mm) is inserted into the Document Handler, a message will be displayed to enter the scan width. To scan the document, enter 36 in.(914 mm) then press the Enter key to start the scan. A number larger than 36 (914) will not be accepted.

Building and printing the set
In Sets Build mode, documents of C (A2) size and larger are normally delivered to the rear of the Scanner after the scan. If the DOCUMENT RETURN parameter is set to REAR, then all documents are delivered to the rear after scanning. The WIDE FORMAT SCAN SYSTEM is equipped with a document catching device, called the Stacker, to receive these documents. Refer to "Scanner Control" in the "Main Menu" section of this manual for further information about the DOCUMENT RETURN parameter.

Trail
Margins are added to the image in one of two ways:
If Synchro has been selected from the Output Format area of the Scanner Control Panel, the lead margin is added before the image is printed. The trail margin is added after the media cut signal is received from the Scanner. Thus, the length of the media from the Printer will be the scanned document length plus the lead and trail margins.
If a fixed media length (Preset or Manual) has been selected as the Output Format, the white space of the specified margin surrounds the image, but the actual physical dimens ions of the media remain as specified. The margins reduce the allowable area on the media in which the image may be placed.

Scanning to the Network (SCAN mode)
Scanning to the Network (SCAN mode)
The WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM has two scanning modes of operation: COPY mode and SCAN mode.
NOTE: The SCAN mode is optional on the XEROX WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM 8825. X2 TECH Color Scan -to-Net is an available option for all XEROX WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM equipped with the WIDE FORMAT SCAN SYSTEM. The Color Scan -to-Net feature requires a separately purchased, Color Enablement feature key. Scanned color files may be printed in color on the X2 TECH printer. For ordering information, contact your XEROX representative.
NOTE: The COPY mode will be disabled and the READY TO COPY screen will not be accessible when the SCAN OPTION (COLOR) is enabled and a color printer is connected to the Controller.
In COPY mode, documents are scanned and temporarily stored in memory or on the controller internal hard disk, and then sent to the local Printer as soon as the Printer is available. When the next job is scanned, the file from the previous job is automatically deleted from the hard disk, making room for new files. Operation of the system works as described in the previous sections.
In SCAN mode, the image file created by scanning is stored directly on the controller hard disk for later retrieval over a connected network by a remote system. The image is stored in Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) 6.0 using CCITT Group 4, CALS compression, Packbits, or PDF. High resolution JPG files are also available with the Color Scan -to-Net option.
Files stored in SCAN mode can be retrieved over the network. After the AccXES Client Tools program running on a network -connected computer retrieves the file, the image residing on the local ha rd disk is deleted
XEROX WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM Scanning to the Network (SCAN mode) 81
automatically. For more information, refer to the AccXES Client Tools User Guide.
Other remote retrieval programs can use the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) to retrieve and delete files from the WIDE FORMAT COPY SYSTEM hard disk over the network. These other programs will copy the files rather than move them, so the files remain on the local hard disk after retrieval.
After a file has been on the local hard disk for longer than the time specified for the FILE DELETION Timer, the system automatically deletes the file. Refer to the Main Menu, CONFIGURATION menu, TIMERS section of this manual for information about setting the FILE DELETION timer.
Switching between COPY mode and SCAN mode
NOTE: The COPY mode will be disabled and the READY TO COPY screen will not be accessible when a color printer is connected to the Controller.
