Safety Notes
Your Folder has been designed and tested to meet strict safety
requirements. These include safety agency examinations and approval,
as well as compliance of established environmental standards.
Please read the following instructions carefully before operating the
UNIVERSAL Folder. Refer to them as needed, to ensure the continued
safe operation of your folder.
Follow all warnings and instructions that are marked on, or supplied
with, your folder.
The power supply cord is the disconnecting device for this equipment.
Make sure that the installation is near the socket outlet and that it is
easily accessible.
Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not locate the
folder where someone will step on the cord.
Never spill liquid of any kind on the folder.
Never remove any covers or guards that require a tool for removal.
There are no areas within these covers that can be serviced by the
operator.
Unplug this equipment from the wall outlet before cleaning the exterior.
Always use materials that are specifically designated for the Universal
Folder. Use of other materials may result in poor performance and
could create a hazardous situation.
Do not use aerosol cleaners.
Never use supplies or cleaning materials for purposes other than for
which they are intended. Keep all supplies and materials out of the
reach of children.
To avoid the risk of electric shock, contact your electrician to replace
the outlet if you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet.
Never use a ground adapter plug to connect the folder to a power source
that lacks a ground connection terminal.
This folder should be operated from the type of power source indicated
on the marking label at the power source. If you are not sure of the type
of power available, consult your power company.
Never attempt any maintenance function that is not specified in this
operator manual.
Never disable any interlock switches. This equipment is designed to
prevent operator access to unsafe areas. The covers, the guards, and the
interlock switches are provided to ensure that the system will not
operate with the covers open.
Under the following conditions, unplug the Folder from the wall outlet
and refer all servicing to qualified service personnel:
• When the power cord is damaged or frayed
• If liquid has been spilled into the product
• If the folder has been exposed to rain or water
• If the folder is producing unusual noises or odors
• If the folder or the cabinet has been damaged
If you need additional safety information concerning the folder or
XEROX supplied materials, call your authorized XEROX dealer.

Folder Overview
Rotation
Reference Information
To help you understand the Universal Folder, some of the commonly
used terms are explained below.
Folded Print Dimensions
(a) Fan Fold
This is the first accordion fold.
(b) Cross Fold
This is the second fold and it is at a right angle to the first fold.
(m) Margin
Binding margin for archive and punching
(p) Panel
Total length (a+m)
When the Optional Bridge Rotation
feature is installed, the print orientation
can be turned, or rotated 90 degrees, in a
clockwise direction. This will be
performed automatically to facilitate
folding specific output package styles.
Maximum print dimensions for this
operation are given below.
X = only media rolls 22” - 594mm - 24” - 620mm
Y = with title block location 1 and 2 between 409 and 460
Y = with title block location 3 and 4 only media rolls 17”- 420mm -18”
Feeding direction
X
Y
Media
The folder was designed to operate with Bond (ordinary), 18-22 lbs (75100gsm) paper. Paper that does not meet this specification will result
in poor folding performance and an increased occurrence of jams.
All non-Bond (ordinary paper) Media delivered by the printer will not
be folded, but it will be automatically bypassed and stacked on the
bridge.
Mylar or Polyester Film should not be allowed to enter the folder. This
m
a
p
b
will cause a jam and may result in equipment damage.
The number and placement of folds is based on the type of fold selected
and the paper size. Refer to the Folding Style Reference Charts for
details on how the folds will look.
September 2001 88XX Series Folder Operator Manual 4
Printing
Title Block Input Position
The prints exit from the printer in two different ways. The term 'leading'
is used for the print edge that exits the printer into the Bridge:
LEL (Long Edge Leading) SEL (Short Edge Leading)
111128
Feeding
After the Bridge Transport (with or without rotation), the copy will be
fed into the folder in two ways. The term 'feeding' is used for when the
print exits the bridge and goes into the folder: The 'C'/A2 size print
exits the printer Long Edge Leading and with the optional rotation. It
enters the Folder with Short Edge Feeding. This is the only example
where a distinction between leading and feeding is important.
LEF (Long Edge Feeding) SEF (Short Edge Feeding)
The Title block can be located in four different corners of the print, as
shown in the illustration below.
The Title block position number is always relative to the feeding
direction, which is indicated by the gray arrow.
These two symbols will be used throughout this manual to indicate
where the Title block position is, and where it is necessary to locate the
Title block to obtain the correct folding operation. This will help you to
understand the operation of the Folder.
The symbol (A) will be used when prints require fan folding and the
symbol (B) when prints require cross folding.

All prints entering the Folder with the Title
block in positions 3 and 4 will be delivered in
2
the output bin with the title page “Face Up”.
See illustration (2).
Output Style
The folder folds all prints into an A/A4
size where the Title block appears aligned
to the shortest edge of the folded package
(1) or aligned to the longest edge of the
folded package (2).
The print that exits, as shown in
illustration (1), is called “Portrait Style”
where a<b.

Operating Hints
Before printing, be sure that:
− The media rolls are positioned correctly in the center of the IOT.
− The lead edges on the paper rolls are straight. If necessary, trim the
edge.
− The doors are not opened, and that the folding program on the folder
is not changed during folding.
− The bridge is in the correct operating position. The bridge must be
fully down.
THE 88XX FOLDER FOLDS ONLY PRINTS DELIVERED
FROM RECOGNIZED ROLLS. REFER TO “
Procedure” SUBMENU FOR A LIST OF SUPPORTED ROLLS
Manual Feed
Folding Hints
Sizes
The 88XX Series Folder processes nearly all sizes with all folding
styles. However, some folding styles require, for a better result, a
particular size. Other folding styles only work with a particular kind of
style, as described below.
− Afnor and French Styles can be used with documents ISO, Afnor,
and French.
To obtain a perfect Afnor folded print, use only Afnor sizes with
perfect dimensions (±2mm).
− Ericsson style can be used with ISO and Ericsson sizes.
To obtain a perfect Ericsson folded print, use only Ericsson sizes.
− Wallet 11” style can be used with Ansi and Architectural size.
To obtain a perfect Wallet 11” folded print, use only Ansi sizes
with perfect dimensions (±2mm).
− Wallet 12” styles can be used with Ansi and Architectural sizes.
To obtain a perfect Wallet 12” folded print, use only Architectural
sizes with perfect dimensions (±2mm).
− All the other styles could be used with all kind of sizes except the
Ericsson and French sizes.
Face delivery
When a job is created, it could be sent to the folder with delivery Face
up or Face Down. All the documents, with all the folding programs, can
be processed by the folder so that they exit Face Up or Down.
Exceptions are the Ericsson and 198 folding programs.
− In order to create a correct job Face Up, exclude the style Ericsson
and the Landscape styles because they produce folded prints always
Face Down.
− In order to create a correct job Face Down, exclude the style 198
because it produces folded prints always Face Up.
Refer to the section “Folding Using Host Or Scanner” for a complete
description of job management.

Numeric Control Panel
The following explains the manual selection of features/functions of the
Folder using the Standard and Alphanumeric Control Panels. For
network access of these functions, refer to “AccXES Client Tools User
Guide”, or the “Web Printer Manager Tool User Guide”.
The Numeric Control Panel is the manual means used to communicate
with the Folder. Located on the back panel of the Folder, it contains a
red four-digit display, three buttons and two LED indicators and is
available on all folders. [See the 8825/8830 Printer Operator Manual
for Finishing Communications using the Printer User Interface.]
The buttons are used by the Operator to select the folding program and
by Service while in the diagnostic mode. The red four-digit display will
indicate Fold Program Codes and the Error/Alarm Codes, as shown in
the illustration.
Scroll Keys

Enter key
Alphanumeric Control Panel
The Alphanumeric Control Panel is the manual means used to
communicate with the folder, and is standard when the folder is used
with the 8855 Printer.
This control panel, which is located on the left front side of the folder,
consists of an alphanumeric display and six different buttons.
Reset key:
• Performs POST (Power On Self Test) if it is kept
pressed for less than two seconds
• Performs Manual Ejecting Procedure if kept pressed
for more than two seconds. Its activation enables
rollers to eject paper jams. To exit, wait five seconds
and then keep the Reset key pressed for less than two
seconds.
The two LED, (red and green) show the status of the folder:
− The red LED indicates when the folder is busy, when it is not ready
to fold, when it is performing a self-test, or that the alarm status is
under network control
− The green LED indicates that the folder is idle and ready to fold.

The same print could be folded with the same fan
program with the option “EQUAL” [ u2.02 ] because
the folder automatically divides the width of the print to
obtain equal panels.
The purpose of the “EQUAL” option is to obtain a folded print
more flat and folded with one less cross fold. That is why it does not
work with all sizes and styles. Only when a few millimeters of the
cross folding depth is modified, is it possible to obtain a folded print
without prefolds. The “EQUAL” option does not produce results
with Ericsson, Afnor, French and Wallets program (some of these
styles already have an output equal). Besides, it is possible to fold
equal panels only with some kind of paper rolls.

Folding Using Host Or Scanner
How to Recognize Title Block and Document Orientation
Before the folding process can begin, the Folder must receive
information that defines the Size, the Title block location, the Output
Style, and the selection of the other available finishing options. Under
normal operation, the RTL driver, the ADI driver, or the AccXES
Client Tools provide this information automatically through a serial
communications interface.
Refer to the “XES Synergix 8825/8830/8850 Controller Setup Manual
for Firmware x.x” for more detail on how it works.
All the selections made on any of the drivers listed above, will override
the selection made on the Web Printer Manager Tool (Web PMT).
The selections made on the Web PMT, without modification from the
drivers, will override the selection made on the folder control panel.
If the selection of the Title Block position is not specified through the
driver, and no default is selected in the Web PMT, the folder considers
the setting of its control panel.
The selections made on the folder control panel are considered also
when working in the Manual Feed Procedure, or when using the driver
some finishing option is set as “default”. Refer to the Advanced
Settings section.
In the AccXES Client Tools section, some folding procedures are
explained in detail.
Each document has to follow printer or folder rules before it is printed.
The AccXES Controller manages the orientation of the document and
applies the printer rules (like type of media roll loaded) and folder rules
(like preferred feeding direction, such as Short Edge Feeding).
For example, the E/A0 are landscape documents with the Title Block in
the Lower Right corner. They are printed with a 90° rotation by the
AccXES controller, in short edge feeding, with the title block corner 4.
The selection of the Title Block field on ACT must be Lower Right
because this is the original orientation of the document.
TIP: To view a print with the original orientation, print the document
reduced by 90% (type 10% on ACT), selecting a roll size bigger than
the reduced document. Select Folding Method Bypass and fix rotation
to 0 degrees. This step enables the AccXES Controller to print the
document following any rules.

− Select “User Defined” to manually choose the folding
parameters. Click on the “Settings” button.
− Choose the Folding Program.
− Use the checkbox “Cross” to activate/deactivate the Cross
Folder.
− The “Margin” checkbox also does not affect the folder
working. The binding margin depends on the Folding
Method selected.
Select folding method 185+25, 190+20, or 7.5+1 to obtain a
folded print with the binding margin.
Untagging the checkbox “Margin,” with the folding
methods with margin, does not deactivate the margin.
− To activate the punching, choose a program with margin
(185+25, 190+20, 7.5+1) and tag the checkbox “Punch”.
Untag the checkbox to deactivate punching.
Tagging the checkbox “Punch,” with folding methods
without margin, does not activate the punching device.
The activation/deactivation of the punching by PC works
only when the “Punching On” option is selected on the
folder control panel.
September 2001 88XX Series Folder Operator Manual 28
− Select the Sort Bin where the folded print must be stacked. The
selection “default” lets the folder use the setting defined in the
Stacker Submenu, which is in the folder control panel.
− Choose the Title Block location.

September 2001 88XX Series Folder Operator Manual 29
Selecting “ Always On,” with folding methods without margin,
k
does not activate the punching device.
The activation/deactivation of the punching works only if on the
folder control panel the “Punching On” option is selected.
− Title Block Location
Choose the location of the title block. With this information, the
AccXES will provide a correct document feeding orientation to
satisfy the folding requests.
− Choose Sort Bin to select where the folded print must be stacked.
The selection “default” lets the folder use the setting defined in
the Stacker Submenu, which is in the folder control panel.
How to Recognise the Title Block Location
The picture below shows the document feeding orientation.
The correct selection in the picture is “Upper Right”.
To avoid misunderstanding, the operator is helped by a label showing a
sample document laid on the Scanner.
Do not be concerned about the inversion of Left and Right because the
label considers a document turned upside down.
Simply lay the document on the Scanner in the correct position (upside
down) and look on the label to understand which will be the title block
location. Refer to the picture below and notice that the selection must
be UR “Upper Right”.

Scanner Job Templates
The “Job Template” option is used to simplify the finisher use.
All of the finisher settings can be stored in nine different Job
Templates. (refer to the “XES Synergix 8825/8830/8850/8855 Digital
Solution User Guide” for details).
By recalling a template number, all of the selections that are stored
(Folding method, Cross, Punch, Title Block Location…) are
automatically set.
A good way to create the templates is to refer to the standard Title
Block Location numbering as shown in the picture below.

With these four templates it is easy to manage different sizes that have
to be folded with the same folding method.
Depending on the size orientation, the only thing to do is to recall the
template with the proper Title Block Location. All of the sizes fed in
different ways will result folded with the same Face Orientation.

September 2001 88XX Series Folder Operator Manual 31
AccXES Client Tools
Sometimes the document exits the printer with a different orientation
from the orientation on the screen.
Using this procedure, is possible to understand how the native
application produces the print files and creates files that respect the
desired orientation.
How to organize the jobs
When using the ACT, the operator has to manage lots of files. That is
why it is important for the operator to have the files named so that some
finishing information is easy to understand from the file names without
having to open the files to view the image orientation.
People who print the files from the document native application, could
supply all the necessary informations in the file name.
For example if the document is an A1 size Landscape with Title Block
in the Lower Right corner:
A1 SIZE
LANDSCAPE
The file name could be:
“DOCUMENT NAME - A1 LANDSCAPE LOWER RIGHT.XXX”
or shortened
“DOCUMENT NAME-A1 LAND LR.XXX”
This way the operator with the ACT can set all the finishing
requirements simply by looking at the file name.
Consider that sometimes the orientation on the screen does not
correspond to the orientation of the file printed. Refer to the “How to
Recognize Title Block and Document Orientation” paragraph to
understand how your application produces the files. Then supply the
original orientation with the original position of the Title Block.
Face Up or Down - advantages and disadvantages
A print job could be folded and stacked Face Up or Down depending on
the operator choice. These two selections have advantages and
disadvantages:
Face Up:
− Higher folding quality.
− Visible Title Block in the folded print basket.
− Need to reverse print order to obtain the job sorted correctly.
Face Down:
− Folded package Full Back and Full Front (no prefold in the end).
− Not visible Title Block in the folded print basket.
− No need to reverse the print order.

Similar Document Job
This procedure describes the steps to print and fold four ISO
documents. Only the finishing options are considered; other printing
options are explained in the “AccXES Client Tools User Guide”.
1. Open AccXES Client Tools.
2. Insert four documents, for example, A0, A1, A2, A3.
3. Click on the Job Options icon and choose the Finishing Tab to set
the folder options.
Here it is possible to select the Folder Type, the Folding Method,
the Sort Bin, and the Title Block.
− Choose the Folder Type “88XX Series Folder Rel #.##”.
− Choose the Folding Method to select the output package
dimensions (a x b).
In this field it is possible to select nineteen folding methods; the
description appears in the text box when the method is selected.
With the Bypass folding method the print is not folded and
stacked on bridge.
September 2001 88XX Series Folder Operator Manual 33
− Choose Sort Bin to select where the folded print must be stacked.
The selection “default” lets the folder use the setting defined in
the Stacker Submenu, which is in the folder control panel.
With the selection “Bin #,” the print will be delivered in the
specified bin. The ACT overrides the folder settings.
Mixed Document Job
In the previous paragraph, every document of the job has the same
orientation (LANDSCAPE/PORTRAIT) and same title block corner.
− Title Block. Inform the system where the title block is located in
the document.
The AccXES controller uses this information to orient the
document properly for the folder to obtain the correct output.
By using a document viewer application it is possible to identify
the right corner.
For example, with a standard ISO A0 document, the title block is
located in Lower Right corner in landscape orientation.
− Use the checkbox “Cross” to activate or bypass the cross folder.
− To activate the punching, choose a program with margin
(185+25, 190+20, 7.5+1) and tag the checkbox “Punch”.
Untag the checkbox to deactivate punching.
Tagging the checkbox “Punch,” with folding methods without
margin, does not activate the punching device.
− The “Margin” checkbox also does not affect the folder working.
The binding margin depends upon the Folding Method selected.
Select folding method 185+25, 190+20 or 7.5+1 to obtain a
folded print with the binding margin.
Untagging the checkbox “Margin,” with any of these folding
methods, does not deactivate the margin.
The next procedure shows, step by step, how to create a mixed
document job consisting of documents with different orientation.
1. Open AccXES Client Tools.
2. Insert the following documents:
− A1 ISO, A3 ISO, A2 ISO (Landscape Lower Right) and an A0
Afnor (Landscape Upper Rigth).
4. Look to the Advanced Settings section for more details regarding
bin usage, Face Up or Down, Punching , and Cross Programs.
5. Press the Submit icon to print and fold the documents of our job.
September 2001 88XX Series Folder Operator Manual 34
3. Click on the Job Options icon and choose the Finishing Tab to set
the folder options.
Advanced Settings
− Choose the Folder Type.
− Choose the Folding Method “AFNOR”
− Choose the Sort Bin.
− Choose the Title Block “Lower Right”
The document A0 AFNOR, in landscape orientation, has the Title
Block in Upper Right corner.
You can now specify only this document’s Title Block corner
location by double clicking on the document name on the Document
Submit Tool. Then select the Transform Tab. Unselect the “Use
Default” box. Then select the Title Block location from the Title
Block drop down menu.
Other specific selections can only be made on the folder control panel:
− Face Up/Down.
Go to Face Submenu and select the face orientation. The entire job
will be delivered into the bin with the specified orientation.
The same job could be submitted both Face Down and Face Up; if
some Folding Styles ,or some size, do not support the selected face
orientation it will be automatically folded in the other orientation.
Refer to the Problem Solving table to troubleshoot face orientation
problems.
For example, the folding style 198 only supports Face up. It will be
folded face up even if it is included in a job face down
Remember that selecting Face Up is necessary to revert the print
order to obtain a folded job sorted in the correct way.
− Bin usage
Go to the Stacker Submenu and select how to use the bins.
The “Stacker mode” and the “Sorter mode” can only be selected on
the folder. It is not necessary to restart the AccXES Controller. Just
choose “default” in the Sort Bin field and the AccXES Client Tools
will consider only the selections made on the folder control panel.
− Cross Folder Program
Go to the Cross Programs Submenu to choose between “Standard”
and “Equal”. It is not necessary to restart AccXES Controller or set
any option on ACT, only use the folder control panel.
− Punching
Remember that it is possible to activate/deactivate the punching
from a PC only if on the folder control panel you select “Punching
On”. If the folder control panel is set to “Punching Off”, the
selection on the PC will not affect the punching device.
September 2001 88XX Series Folder Operator Manual 35
Suspending the Print Queue
When the system is printing and folding a job, it is possible to suspend
the print queue as follows:
− The folder control panel shows the program in use (for example
185 [ p.01 ] ).
− Press the “Pause” key on the Alphanumeric Control Panel or the
“Enter” key on the Numeric Control Panel.
− The displays show “PAUSE” [ paus ], and the print queue stops.
− Pressing the same key again, the print queue will restart.
The keys “Pause” and “Enter” mentioned above, suspend
the queue only if the system is working and the display
shows the program selected. When the system is in “Idle”
status, these keys have their normal function which is to set the system
in Pause Mode in order to enter the Operator menu.
It could be useful to suspend the queue for many reasons: if a job
consisting of a lot of prints is wrong, suspending the job allows the
operator to delete the entire queue using the ACT.
To do this, select the “Printer Queue” tab in ACT. Select the second
toolbar button to update the print que status. Select (highlight) all of
the listed files. Select the Delete toolbar button to remove them from
the print queue.

Introduction to Jam Clearance Procedures
Safety Bridge Lever
A series of corrective procedures are to be used by the operator to clear
jams.
Note: If a jam occurs during a multi-print procedure, the bridge flap
goes up and the folder goes into the Pause Mode. This operation is
covered fully in the Pause Mode Procedure.
The following pages will give you the detailed steps to take when you
are clearing a jam. The folder will inform the operator where the jam is
located by using an alarm tone and the message display:
• A single tone if jam occurs in the Bridge
• A double tone if the jam occurs in the Fan Section
• A triple tone if the jam occurs in the Cross Section
To avoid larger jams, perform the Automated Eject Procedure. Keep the
Reset key pressed for more than two seconds. Then when the reset key is
pressed, the rollers start. If the reset key is pressed for less than two
seconds, after a five-second delay, the folder exits the Manual Eject
Procedure.
If the Manual Eject Procedure does not succeed in removing the paper
jam, follow the procedures on the following pages.
To tilt up the bridge:
1. Disengage the Bridge Hook (8855 only) .
2. Using the handle, tilt up the bridge, ensuring that the lever lowers
down into the slot under control.
3. Check that the safety lever is latched in the correct position.
BE CAREFUL
If the safety lever is not latched in the correct position, the bridge could
drop down and cause serious damage to the machine or to the operator.
To let down the bridge:
1. Release the bridge safety lever.
2. Lower the bridge to the horizontal
position.
3. Make sure that the bridge engages
the printer brackets.

Configuration
Where possible, the Universal Folder is available with the standard
configuration, and has the ability to add the following additional
options:
Rotation:
• The Rotation enables the Folder to rotate the A2/C size. This allows
the folder to be combined with a printer that has three media rolls. It
can then make five standard sizes without the need to replace the
media roll.
Punching:
• The Punching Device is a tool to make 3 or 4 holes automatically in
the binding margin of the folded print. The Punching option requires
the installation of the Rotation Bridge.
Alphanumeric Control Panel:
• The Alphanumeric Control Panel is available for the user who
wishes to have full feature selection, remotely from the system client
tools. This Alphanumeric Control Panel is included when the folder
is installed with the 8855 printer.
Second Output Bin:
• The Second Output Bin increases the capacity of the folder up to
200A0/E.
• The Second Output Bin also avoids system stops: if the first bin is
full, the system still goes on stacking the prints in the second bin.
Listed below, are the five possible configurations to increase the
capability of the folder. Every optional will be indicated with a letter:
Rotation = R
2nd basket = B2
Punching = H3/H4 (under development)
Control Panel option = C
• The second bin also increases the system speed when two copies of a
job are needed: the Sorter Mode allows printing two copies of a
document and sorts them one per bin. In this way the printer
optimizes the rolls usage because it does not print all of the job twice
with changing the roll for every document. Instead, it prints
sequentially two copies of each document without loosing time due
to changing the rolls.
