Getting to know the Synergix Digital Solution
This manual contains operating instructions for the user and the system
administrator for the XES Synergix 8825/8830/8850/8855 Digital Solution with
version 6.1 software loaded into the Controller.
Your Synergix Digital Solution is an integrated solution for electronically
scanning and then printing images for engineering or architectural use. The
Digital Solution consists of the Synergix Scan System and Control Panel for
capturing images, the Controller for processing these images, and the XES
Synergix 8825,8830, 8850, or 8855 Printer for making good quality copies of
the captured images in engineering or architectural sizes.
Table 1 below shows the various Synergix Digital Solution configurations. An
optional Online Folder is available for each of these configurations to provide
further processing of the printed output.
Table 1. Synergix Digital Solution configurations
Scanner Printer Controller Product
Code
The Synergix Digital Solution 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 Synergix Digital Solution 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.
The Synergix Digital Solution contains Dynamic IQ technology from Xerox
Engineering Systems. Dynamic IQ enables the Digital Solution to examine a
sample of the document intelligently and to make automatic image quality
adjustments that yield a good copy even from poor original documents.
Dynamic IQ also automatically detects the width and adjusts the centering of
a scanned original for most opaque documents. Translucent documents
(transparencies, clear film, etc.) in most cases will not be detected.
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.

The Background Suppression option enables you to make adjustments for
documents that contain poor contrast between the foreground image and the
background. The Background Suppression selections work with the Dynamic
Image Quality (Dynamic IQ) feature, that pre-scans the image, to ensure the
best image quality possible. Refer to Menu, Configuration, Scanner Control to
select this feature,
NOTE: Background Suppression is disabled when scanning in color, and
MIXED is selected.
Four choices are provided:
Off This setting disables Background Suppression. It produces a
document that reproduces all the characteristics of the original
document with minimum alteration. 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 black 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 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.
(Dark)
Auto (factory default) – The Scanner automatically adjusts the image
NOTE: All three Background Suppression settings can be adjusted further
by changing the contrast setting in the Image Quality Copy area.
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.

the back of the Scan System. Then switch on the Controller, then the Printer.
The procedures for powering on the Controller and the Printer vary for the
8825/8830 Digital Solution and the 8855 Digital Solution. Follow the
instructions provided in this section for your system.
Initial power-on
When the Synergix Scan System is present, the DDS parameter must be set
to Enabled in order to enable the copy/scan functionality. If the DDS
parameter is set to Disabled, copy/scan functionality will not be enabled.
The default for this parameter is Disabled. You must ensure that it is set to
Enabled when powering on the Digital Solution for the first time. After setting
the DDS parameter, wait 30 seconds, then power the system off then on.
Once you enable this parameter, it will remain enabled (even following future
software upgrades).

Document quality
appropriate compensation to optimize the reproduction of the dark details. If
the input document has a faded background, the Dynamic IQfeature 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.
Document quality is the primary factor in obtaining good copies from scanned
originals. For most documents, the Dynamic IQ feature of the Synergix
Digital Solution provides an accurate copy. Some documents, however,
require manual adjustments to the settings to achieve the best copy quality.
This section explains the Dynamic IQ 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 IQ
The Dynamic IQfeature of the Synergix Digital Solution eliminates the need to
make additional manual adjustments for most input documents. Refer to
Menu, Configuration, Scanner Control to enable/disable this feature
Dynamic adjustment of copy quality
This feature allows the system to dynamically adjust itself for each document.
There are two modes associated with this feature:.
• When Dynamic IQ is enabled, the image is continually monitored as it is
being scanned and the copy quality parameters adjusted to achieve the
best copy quality.
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 IQfeature, 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 enable, 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 IQ™ 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.
• When Dynamic IQ 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
Dynamic Background Suppression 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 IQwill automatically make the

Automatic edge detection and document centering
The AUTOWIDTH and 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, the System will prompt 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 for more information.
Document quality (continued)
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?
Background
Foreground
4"
4"
• 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.
What is a bad quality document?
Bad quality documents often require special attention to achieve a usable
image. Fortunately, the Synergix Digital Solution incorporates special image
processing technology 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:
• The foreground is light (e.g., a faded or overexposed blueprint or light
pencil lines).
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 ablueline). If the document is of mixed type, the foreground
is color.
XES Synergix 8825/8830/8850/8855 Digital Solution User Guide 27
• 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 dark or dark (e.g., underexposed blueprint).
• The background has variable density.
• The background has speckles.
• The document has creases, folds, stains, tears, or extraneous marks that
the Scanner might interpret as foreground.
XES Synergix 8825/8830/8850/8855 Digital Solution User Guide 28
Document quality (continued)
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/Custom documents contain both line elements and photo
elements or halftone images.
− 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. This minimizes the number of
times you will need to change the Media Selection Output Format
settings when using preset or custom format sizes.
Scanning groups of documents of the same type 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.
Document quality (continued)
Scanning strategies
When scanning documents, always try the default image processing settings
first. Select the document type – Line, Photo, or Mixed/Custom and use the
default settings for that type. These settings have been designed to give the
optimum image quality for most documents.
If you have a special original type, you may want to try some of the advanced
image processing features available on the Scanner. Table 2 on the next
page describes the scanning strategies for special original types.

Making copies
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.
When the Graphical Display indicates READY TO COPY, the Synergix Digital
Solution is ready to make copies.
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.
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.
DOCUMENT RETURN
FRONT is the default setting. When the DOCUMENT RETURN feature is
set to FRONT, the Scanner returns the document to the front or READY
position at the completion of the scan. W hen the DOCUMENT RETURN
feature is set to REAR, the Scanner delivers the document to the rear
Stacker at the completion of the scan.
NOTE Some documents will always exit to the rear at the completion of
the scan regardless of the DOCUMENT RETURN setting. These
documents include:
AUTOWIDTH
AUTOWIDTH enabled is the default setting. W hen AUTOWIDTH is enabled,
the Scanner automatically detects the width of the document. W hen
AUTOWIDTH is disabled, you must enter the width of the document
manually, and very carefullly center the document when inserting it into the
Scanner.
AUTOCENTER
AUTOCENTER enabled is the default setting. When AUTOCENTER is
enabled, the Scanner automatically centers the image. When
AUTOCENTER is disabled, you must carefully center the document during
insertion into the Scanner.

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.

To make a copy using the default document settings:
1. Insert the original document face down and centered on the Document
Feed Tray of the Scanner.
NOTE: If the document is not exactly centered and the AUTOCENTER
feature is enabled, the Synergix Digital Solution will automatically correct the
problem electronically. The resulting image will still be correctly positioned on
the output media. If AUTOCENTER or AUTOWIDTH is disabled, you will
need to carefully center the document when inserting it. Refer to "Controlling
the scan" on the previous page.
2. Gently move the document forward until the lead edge engages the feed
rolls. The Scanner transports the document to the 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.
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 copies (continued)
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 Synergix Digital Solution 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 Reduction/Enlargement 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 Synergix Digital Solution must rotate the image to fit on the
selected media size, additional processing time is required. If possible, feed
the original image so that no image rotation is required. This will achieve the
fastest processing time.
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.
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.

Fitting the image to a fixed copy size
The Synergix Digital Solution can automatically fit the scanned image onto a
predefined size of media.
1. Set the Media Selection Source to Auto. The Auto indicator lamp
illuminates. This setting allows the Synergix Digital Solution to
automatically select 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.
PRESET OUTPUT FORMAT
SELECT 8.5 X 11 ANSI A
4. Press the Previous or Next key until the desired output size is
highlighted.
5. Press the Enter key to confirm your choice.
6. Set the Reduction/Enlargement to Auto.
7. 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.
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.
Making copies (continued)
Scanning when using a Folder
When using a Folder, the document must be inserted in the Scanner with the
title block positioned as shown in Table 3 on the next page in order to have
the title block visible after the copy is folded. To ensure that the correct size
fold is obtained, use the paper roll width indicated in the Recommended
Printer Media Roll Width column.
Documents larger than 80 inches (2.1M) can only be partially folded.
When using the Reduction/Enlargement 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. Refer to Table 3
on the next page.
To ensure that the copy is folded correctly, and will not jam in the Folder, it is
recommended that you only select standard reductions and enlargements
(e.g., A to C, A to E, B to D, A4 to A2, A4 to A0, A3 to A1, etc.). These
selections are identified in Table 3 by the document icon. Those areas that
are blank are not recommended because the title block may not be visible
after the folding is complete. You may want to refer to "Custom R/E Presets"
in the "Main Menu" section, and set up the Reduction/Enlargement default to
show the standard reduction and enlargement shown in Table 3. Set the
reduction /enlargement to display A to C (A4 to A2) above the keys.
For additional folding information, refer to the Folder Operator Manual.

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-side as it
feeds through 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 Shelve, 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.

Special features keys
The Synergix Digital Solution has many enhanced features for making copies
that meet special needs. The keys that control these features are on the right
side of the Scanner Control Panel.
To enable a feature, press the applicable key. If the feature has an
associated screen, that screen is displayed when the key is pressed. If any
settings are changed from the default state, the corresponding indicator lamp
next to the key illuminates. Pressing the C/CA key on the numeric keypad
twice returns all settings for the feature to the default state and the
corresponding indicator lamp is extinguished.
When the settings for a feature are appropriately set, pressing the same
feature key causes the changes to be accepted and the system returns to the
READY state. Pressing a different feature key while editing a setting is
invalid and causes a beep. Pressing a different feature key while not editing
a setting causes the requested feature screen to be displayed.
If a feature has no associated screen, pressing that feature key switches the
feature on (enabled) or off (disabled). When such a feature is enabled, the
corresponding indicator lamp is illuminated.
If the BEEP function (factory default) is enabled, a beep sound will be heard
when a key is pressed. If an improper key is pressed, a multiple beep sound
will be heard.

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 dimensions 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)
The Synergix Digital Solution has two scanning modes of operation: COPY
mode and SCAN mode.
NOTE: The SCAN mode is optional on the Synergix 8825 Digital Solution. It
is a standard feature on the Synergix 8830 Digital Solution and Synergix 8855
Digital Solution.. For ordering information, contact your XES 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 AccXES.
• In COPY mode, documents are scanned, temporarily stored in memory
or on the 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 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, or PDF.
Other remote retrieval programs can use the File Transfer Protocol (FTP)
to retrieve and delete files from the Synergix Digital Solution 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 for information
about setting the FILE DELETION timer.
Files stored in SCAN mode can be retrieved over the network. After the
file is retrieved by the AccXES Client Tools program running on a
network-connected computer, the image residing on the local hard disk is
deleted automatically. For more information, refer to the AccXES Client
Tools User Guide.
