Laser safety
!
Warning: Adjustments, use of controls, or performance of
procedures other than those specified herein may result in
hazardous light exposure.
The Xerox DocuPrint printers are certified to comply with the
performance standards of the U.S. Department of Health, Education,
and Welfare for Class 1 laser products. Class 1 laser products do not
emit hazardous radiation. The DocuPrint printers do not emit
hazardous radiation because the laser beam is completely enclosed
during all modes of customer operation.
The laser danger labels on the system are for Xerox service
representatives and are on or near panels or shields that must be
removed with a tool. DO NOT REMOVE LABELED PANELS OR
PANELS NEAR LABELS. ONLY XEROX SERVICE
REPRESENTATIVES HAVE ACCESS TO THESE PANELS.
Ozone information
This product produces ozone during normal operation. The amount
of ozone produced depends on copy volume. Ozone is heavier than
air. The environmental parameters specified in the Xerox installation
instructions ensure that concentration levels are within safe limits. If
you need additional information concerning ozone, call 1-800-828-
6571 to request the Xerox publication 600P83222, OZONE.

1. 1Feeder trays
This chapter describes the processes for loading paper in the
4050/4090 IPS feeder trays, and explains what actions are
necessary if a paper stock is changed.
Checking feeder trays
Check the amount of paper in each feeder tray by examining the
green lights on the door of the tray. Each light represents 25 percent
of a ream, or about 125 sheets of 20-pound or 80 gsm (grams per
square meter) paper.
Figure 1-1. Feeder tray lights
• You do not have to interrupt a print job to load paper since you
can refill one tray while the printer is feeding from another tray.
• If you try to load a tray that is currently in use, the feeding
switches to a backup tray if one is available. If a backup tray is
not available, the printer stops.
• The printer does not feed all the paper out of a tray. A stack of
approximately 1/4 inch / 6 mm remains in the tray.

Loading feeder trays
It is important to load paper properly in the feeder trays to prevent
jams and loss of production time. The following guidelines will help
ensure maximum efficiency of your IPS printer’s operation.
Guidelines for loading paper
When you are loading the paper, follow these guidelines to prevent
paper jams:
• Remove damaged sheets.
• Load the paper with the package wrapper seam side up.
• Make sure that the direction of the curl is consistent.
• Avoid fanning the paper unless the stock is predrilled.
• Do not load the paper above the MAX line on the length guide.
• Place any paper left in the bottom of the tray on top of the new
paper stack.
• When loading predrilled paper, fan the paper and remove
loose paper plugs.
