Full Width Array
Your digital press may include an internal color calibration function referred to as Full
Width Array. This is located in Area 6 of the print engine right side.
Note
The Full Width Array is an OPTIONAL feature that can be purchased for your system.
For more information, contact your Xerox representative.
The Full Width Array feature uses xerographic parameters and diagnostics to scan the
finished image and correct errors in registration, density and color. This is the process
of calibrating the Print Server with the digital press. There are now internal color
calibration strips (or tiles) used as reference for known colors of a test pattern. These
color values are automatically adjusted to produce accurate and consistent reproductions,
and this means that no longer is customer intervention required. It also allows the
customer to maintain tighter image quality control over the output of their system.
Note
Refer to your Print Server user documentation when performing the calibration workflow
of the Print Server in conjunction with the digital press. Also refer to the System
Administration Guide for detailed information on the Full Width Array feature.
Clear dry ink
The clear dry ink is an optional fifth module that provides full and spot page coverage
enhancement to print jobs.
The clear dry ink capability utilizes two methods to enhance the coverage area of printed
output. These two methods are full flood and spot (applied to specific areas only). Both
workflow methods use a “varnish” or clear coat to achieve desired effects, while also
maintaining machine productivity. The clear dry ink module is supported by all print
servers.

Product overview
Productivity
With the usage of the clear dry ink module, machine productivity is maintained across
all supported media, expanding the realm of endless capabilities including:
• Maintains full rated speed of 80/100 prints per minute (ppm) in five-color mode
• Supports both text and images
Full flood
Full flood varnish provides a uniform, glossy finish on the printed output when it is used
with high-end applications. The full flood option provides full page coverage as a clear,
glossy finish (varnish) which enhances the overall appearance within an application or
on a single sheet.
Spot
Using the spot option within a supported application allows the user to indicate a specific
area, or multiple areas where a clear dry ink will be applied to the printed output. This
is done in order to accent or highlight the desired area. Spot varnish can be used to:
• “Varnish” (apply a glossy finish to) specific areas of a print job
• Create artistic effects and highlights on a print job
• Enhance the appearance of metallic items with key colors such as silver, gold, or
copper
• Enhance pastel colors with a pearly luster affect
• Highlight images for visual variety to make them lift off the page (a three-dimensional
affect)
• Draw attention to headline text
• Highlight photos, logos, or other image areas
• Highlight watermarks

Advanced Stock Setup
The Advanced Stock Setup feature allows the user to further customize stocks beyond
the typical size, weight, type, and other characteristics.
The Advanced Stock Setup feature is accessed from either the Stock Properties window
or the New Stock Setup window.
Different media (including paper type, weight, and coating/uncoating, paper curl) may
require specific and/or special handling by the machine as it is moving through the paper
path. For example, some media types may skew or curl as they progress through the
printing path of the machine. This may occur on frequently-run jobs and/or on jobs with
a high volume output.
Xerox® Color 800/1000 Press
User Guide
8-1
Advanced Stock Setup
The Advanced Stock Setup feature allows you set specific custom parameters for
different types of media and jobs, such as outlined in the above paragraph. These custom
stocks may be used at point of need in order to ensure optimum output quality of your
prints/jobs. The stocks may be either a temporary stock for a specific, one-time job, or
they can be a permanent stock added to the Stock Library list.
By setting custom stocks for specific media types, you can avoid output prints that are
skewed, curled, have too much dry ink/toner or not enough dry ink/toner in areas, or
images that are not registered properly on the output print, such as Side 1 and/or Side
2 images that are misregistered.
Note
Once a custom stock is created, either temporarily or permanently, the machine passes
this information on to your print server. The print server in turn reflects this information
in the print options for the print jobs.

Tips for using Advanced Stock Setup options
Before using any of the Advanced Stock Setup options, keep the following information
in mind:
• It is recommended that you choose only one option at a time. This helps you
determine whether or not that option is providing the desired printed output.
Important
It is HIGHLY recommended that you run test prints after selecting each Advanced
Stock option. This allows you to evaluate the printed output and determine if it is
acceptable or not. In order to run test prints, you MUST be logged on as Administrator.
• If you determine that the output is unacceptable, either further adjust the value for
a particular option (if applicable) or return the option to its default value and continue
to the next option.
• It is important to remember that any settings for a particular option that is used
today for a specific print job may not achieve the same desired outcome/output
when used on different day for that same print job. This is especially relevant if the
room in which the machine is located experiences changes in temperature and
humidity.

• If you determine that your output still is unacceptable after repeating procedures,

process several times, each time running test prints and evaluating the output. If the
output is still unacceptable, call your Customer Support Center for help/assistance.

When this option is selected/checked (yes or true), stock can be selected from the print

(as shown in the Stock Library) and not by matching various parameters (such as weight,
type, and coating). Selecting this option (placing a checkmark in the box) prevents the

or generic paper requests by the user.

When this option is unchecked (no or false), stocks can be selected from the print server
or from the client’s print driver by matching the same attributes (such as weight, type,
and coating) as those listed for stocks in the Stock Library. Stock names also examined,
but are not used exclusively for selection for print jobs.
Multifeed Detection
This option is used in vary rare cases, such as when a job requires the same paper tray
to have different media stocks loaded in it. For example, a job requires a special
application with heavier stock media:
• Tray 1 is loaded with both 24 lb./90 gsm and 130 lb. Cover (350 gsm)
• The print job pulls both stocks from the same tray for the same job.
• With Multifeed Detection selected, the machine detects and avoids any possible
multifeed issues. This allows the job to continue running, pulling both stocks from
the same tray, and completes the print job without faults or jams.
Near Empty Detection Level
This option is available only if the Tray Near Empty option is selected for the Auto Tray
Switch Timing feature ( System Settings > Tray Options); otherwise, this option is
ignored. When available, this option informs the user that a tray is nearing an empty
level. This message is displayed to the user depending on where the Near Empty Detection

Tray Air Assist
The Tray Air Assist option allows you to optimize and control the environmental conditions
in your paper trays, which in turn ensures optimum print capability.
Use this feature to switch on/off fans in a paper tray in order to eliminate misfeeds,
multifeeds, paper jams, or other possible tray feeding problems. These fans blow air to
the paper stack during the feeding operation and separate sheets of paper thereby
providing a stable feed of paper.
The Tray Air Assist options includes the following selections:
• System Default: As its name states, this is the default selection. With this selection
the paper tray blowers automatically adjust by using system settings that are
optimized for Xerox papers.
• Multifeed Support Table: Select this option when you have a multifeed condition.
This changes the air assist function to lower the air volume so it does not fluff or pick
up as many sheets of paper. This is a preset lower volume that is already stored in
the machine NVM (NonVolatile Memory).
• Mis-Feed Support Table: Select this option when you have a misfeed condition. This
changes the air assist function to lower the air volume so that it may reduce paper
jams. This is also a preset lower air volume that is stored in the machine NVM.
• Forced Off: Select this option when neither of the above options produce a change
in the output. This option switches off all air assist functions.
Xerox® Color 800/1000 Press
User Guide

Advanced Stock Setup
• Custom 1-8: By default, these are blank NVM storage settings. If necessary, they are
used to create a custom air assist parameter. If none of the other options remedy
the situation, your Xerox representative works with both the customer and the Xerox
personnel to create a custom setting. This is based on the stock being used and the
best air assist values for producing the desired outcome. These values are then entered
into the machine NVM and assigned to a specific Custom setting (1-8).
Enable Tray Heater
The Enable Tray Heater option works in conjunction with the Tray Air Assist option.
Checking this box, enables the tray heater. The heater maintains the appropriate internal
temperature of the paper tray. Depending on the external temperature and humidity,
the heater sends information to the tray blowers. The paper tray blowers then switch
on and provide the required air to the paper stack, thereby preventing multifeeds or
misfeeds from occurring.
Paper path/paper transportation options
Aligner Roll Pressure
Use this option with special paper types that slip or skew thereby causing image
misregistration on the printed output. This feature is also used with some light-weight
or heavy-weight paper stocks that require less or more roll pressure in order to avoid
edge damage to the printed output.
8-8
Xerox® Color 800/1000 Press
User Guide
Advanced Stock Setup
Examples:
• Some coated, heavier paper types slip and skew, thereby misregistering the image
on the output prints. In this case, you may want to increase the roll pressure in order
to compensate for the slippage and skewing.
• Some light-weight papers may have too much roll pressure applied to them, thereby
causing edge damage to the output prints. In this case, you may to decrease the roll
pressure.
Tip
Increasing the roll pressure for some faults, may allow you to postpone a service call.
However, you may want to call your service representative as soon as possible in order
to restore the machine to its full feeding capabilities.
Note
The default setting is 0. It is recommended that you leave this option at its default
setting until you run test prints and evaluate the output of the prints.
Important
Changing the default setting should be considered a temporary solution because
environmental conditions vary from day to day. It is recommended that upon completion
of the print job, you return the option to its default setting.
Second (2nd) bias transfer roll
The second bias transfer roll is where the image is transferred from the belt to the paper.
The 2nd Bias Transfer Roll (2nd BTR) option is normally used with special stocks like
heavier weight paper, such as 220 gsm and greater, 10 pt, or 12 pt. However there are
times when it is also used with lighter weight paper as well. When using either heavier
or lighter weight paper, you may want or need to adjust Side 1 for all 1-sided jobs.
Xerox® Color 800/1000 Press
User Guide

Advanced Stock Setup
If defects continually occur in a printed job when using heavier weight paper, check the
following areas on your printed output to determine if 2nd Bias Transfer Roll (2nd BTR)
adjustments (side 1 and/or side 2) are appropriate.
1. If the job is printed face down or 1-N, check Side 1 for defects on the topside (upper
portion) of the stacked sheets, and check Side 2 for defects on the downside (lower
portion) of the stacked sheets.
2. If the job is printed face up or N-1, check Side 2 for defects on the topside (upper
portion) of the stacked sheets, and check Side 1 for the downside (lower portion) of
the stacked sheets.
Note
The default setting for both Sides 1 and 2 is 100%. It is recommended that you leave
this option at its default setting until you run test prints and evaluate the output of the
prints.
Tip
Test prints may be run in order to check the printed output before saving the changes
made to the 2nd Bias Transfer Roll option. However, in order to run test prints, you must
be logged in as Administrator. The Test Print option is available ONLY in the Administrator

Fuser Temperature
This option allows the user to adjust the fuser temperature for specific media types.
Adjusting the fuser temperature allows the machine to maintain the highest productivity
possible when running mixed media jobs, and thereby allows the fuser belt and related
components to be cooled rapidly when switching from heavy-weight paper to
lighter-weight paper.
In order to maintain the highest productivity possible when running mixed media jobs,
the fuser and its related components need to be cooled rapidly when switching from
heavy weight paper to lighter weight paper. The technology of this fuser and its related
components provide this rapid heating and cooling, thereby ensuring the highest
productivity on printed output, especially when running mixed media jobs.
Under most conditions, the fuser temperature is adjusted automatically by the machine
at point of need. On those very rare occasions, however, the user may need to minimally
adjust the fuser temperature for specific stock weights or a specific job flow (such as
running heavy weight cover stock with lighter weight paper).
The Fuser Temperature option allows the user to set the temperature within a range of
The default setting is 0. It is recommended that you leave this option at its default
setting until you run test prints and evaluate the output of the prints.
Tip
Changing the default setting should be considered a temporary solution because
environmental conditions vary from day to day. It is recommended that upon completion
of the print job, you return the option to its default setting.
Fold Adjustment Profile
This option allows you to select a desired fold adjustment profile.
Note
This option is available only if your machine has the optional Standard Finisher, Booklet
Maker Finisher, or Standard Finisher Plus attached to it.
From the Fold Adjustment Profile pull-down menu, select the desired profile, as required.
These profiles are preset profiles, which are created and maintained from the Profiles
feature on the UI.
Note
Refer to the Profiles chapter of the System Administration Guide for detailed information.

Cleaning procedures
If the exterior surfaces require cleaning, dampen a paper towel or a soft, clean cloth
with a liquid, nonabrasive glass cleaner or water.
Caution
Do not use any other cleaners or solvents on the machine as they may interact with the
paint on the covers, eventually causing the paint to peel.
Caution
Do not pour or spray liquid directly into any of the paper trays. Always apply the liquid
to the cloth first.
Cleaning the UI screen
Clean the UI screen at the start of each day. Remove all dust and fingerprints by wiping
the screen with a clean, lint-free cloth.
Caution
To avoid damage, do not use any Xerox cleaner, water, or commercial cleaner on the
screen.
Cleaning the paper path
Note
It is recommended that you perform the following procedures on a daily basis, preferably
at the start of the day before the machine is switched on and the fuser is cool. Only
clean the recommended areas of the paper path as described in these procedures.
Warning
If the machine is switched on and the fuser is hot, be sure to switch off the machine
power and allow 30 minutes for the fuser to cool before performing this procedure.
