Introduction
Introduction
This guide is for use with the Xerox DocuPrint N24, N32,
and N40 printers.
Because most of the printer’s features and functionality
are shared by all three, this guide uses the generic name
DocuPrint N40 when referring to these printers. And it
refers to all features not found on the base printer as
options.
This guide also identifies two different configurations for
the DocuPrint N40:
• The tabletop configuration
• The console configuration (sitting on top of the
optional 2,500 Sheet Feeder).
Samples of each configuration are shown later in this
chapter, however the figures throughout this guide may
show either configuration when illustrating a feature or
procedure.

Special Features
Special Features
Connectivity
Several features have been designed into the DocuPrint
N40 to enhance your printing environment. Using the
printer's Control Panel menu system, you can tailor
printer settings to match your printing requirements.
See Chapter 3:Using the Control Panel for more
information about the Control Panel and its menu system.
The N40 includes the following physical connectivity
interfaces on board:
• IEEE 1284 Bi-directional parallel
• RS232C Serial Interface with a DB9 Connector
• Ethernet (10 Mbit)
Two additional interfaces are available as options.
• Ethernet (100 Mbit)
• Token Ring
Installing either optional network interface disables the
on board 10 Mbit Ethernet interface. Removing either
optional interface enables the on board 10 Mbit Ethernet
functionality again .

Special Features
Power Saver
High Resolution
Printing
Edge to Edge Printing
After 60 minutes of inactivity, the printer automatically
turns off internal components to reduce the amount of
electricity used. The printer automatically turns those
parts back on when it receives a print job.
Using the printer's Control Panel menu system, you can
send the printer into Power Saver mode after your choice
of Off, 15, 30, 60, 90, 120 or 180 minutes of inactivity.
See the section “System Menu” (page 3-35) in
Chapter 3: Using the Control Panel.
The DocuPrint N40 is set to print at 600 x 600 dpi (dots
per inch). You can also print draft-quality jobs by using
the System Menu to set Draft Mode to On. The printer
automatically reduces the amount of toner by two-thirds
(and prints a draft-quality output). Draft Mode can be
selected on a per job basis from the Xerox printer drivers.
See Chapter 3: Using the Control Panel for in structio ns on
changing Control Panel settings.
You can print PostScript LanguageLevel 3 (hereafter
referred to as PostScript) and PCL 6 Emulatio n (hereafter
referred to as PCL) jobs all the way to the edge of the
page. (However, there is a 4 mm border on all edges, with
all paper sizes, where print quality cannot be
guaranteed.) This feature may be selected via the Control
Panel for PCL jobs or via print drivers for both PCL and
PostScript jobs. Note that selecting this feature will cause
PCL job printing to be shifted up to the top of the page
and left to the edge of the page.
Chapter 1: Getting Started ❖ 1-9
Special Features
Automatic Tray
Sequencing
Automatic Language
Sensing and
Switching
The DocuPrint N40 allows you to set automatic tray
sequencing for both PCL and PostScript jobs. When a
paper tray runs out of paper, the printer automatically
switches to another paper tray (if anot her tray is loaded
with the same size and type paper). That means you don't
have to load paper as often. You can also install the
optional 2,500 Sheet Feeder (with one 500 sheet tray and
two 1,000 sheet trays) to extend your printing capacity.
For more information on tray switching, see the section
“Automatic Tray Switching” (page 2-20) in
Chapter 2: Paper Handling.
The printer can process both PCL and PostScript jobs.
When the printer's Language Sensing option is on, the
DocuPrint N40 samples the incoming data stream to
determine which language the print job requires. The
DocuPrint N40 then switches to the proper interpreter for
that job.
Language Sensing can be set individually for each port,
or protocol within a port, from the Parallel Menu and from
the Ethernet and Novell Menus by setting the a ppropriate
PDL setting to Auto.
With the Language Sensing option on, the printer
automatically samples each print job and switches to the
appropriate processing language.
For more information about language sensing and
switching, see Chapter 3: Using the Control Panel.
1-10 ❖ DocuPrint N24, N32, and N40 System Administrator Guide
Special Features
Automatic Font/
Macro Saving
Secure Printing
Proof Printing
When you are printing both PostScript and PCL jobs, the
printer will automaticall y save downloaded fonts, macros,
and the entire PostScript environment when it switches
PDLs (Printer Description Language ). This saves yo u from
having to download fonts, macros, and headers every
time the program switches between PostScript and PCL.
The DocuPrint N40 allows users to define and control
what are called “secure jobs.” When a secure job is sent
to the printer, printing is delayed until the password
associated with that job is entered at the printer’s Control
Panel. Secure jobs are defined and enabled either via
DocuPrint N40 printer drivers or via a sequence of PJL
commands (see Chapter 5: Using the Hard Disk Drive / Downloading Fonts and Jobs, page 5-8, for an example).
This feature requires the Hard Disk Drive option.
The DocuPrint N40 allows you to view and proofread the
first set of a multiple set job before printing the remaining
sets. This is called “proof printing”. When you send a
proof job to the printer, only the first set is printed
immediately. You can then go to the printer and proof the
first set. Depending on the outcome of the proofing, you
can then decide either to co ntinu e pri ntin g the rema ining
sets or to delete the job by entering the Password Menu
via the Printer Control Panel. Proof printing jobs are
defined and enabled either via the DocuPrint N40 prin ter
drivers or via a sequence of PJL commands (see
“Creating Proof Jobs” page 5-10, for an example). This
feature requires the Hard Disk Drive option.

An additional Flash SIMM of 8 MB is available. You can
essentially increase the resident fonts of the printer or
create resident macros by installing Flash SIMMs and
downloading resources permanently to this memory.
Flash Memory SIMMs are installed in the same way as
RAM SIMMs and in the same slots. See Appendix C: Installing and Removing Printer Options.
An optional Hard Disk Drive is also available, and is used
for storing fonts, forms and macros, enabling secure and
proof job printing and automatic collation o f mul tipl e sets
of a document. See Chapter 5: Using the Hard Disk Drive / Downloading Fonts and Jobs for more information about
the Hard Disk Drive. See Appendix A: DocuPrint N40 Ordering Information to order more printer memory or
the Hard Disk Drive.
The finisher option can be installe d only on consol e
versions of the DocuPrint N40 (i.e., versions which have
the 2,500 Sheet Feeder). It has three output bins with a
total maximum capacity of 2,000 unstapled sheets, up to
667 unstapled sheets per bin. There is stapling capability
for all three bins. Stapled output is delivered face down.
The stapler can staple sets of up to 50 sheets. It has three
stapling positions (Front for portrait, Back for landscape,
and Dual for booklet mode). The customer-replaceable
stapling cartridge contains 5,000 staples.
The finisher documentation is provided as a separate
document on your CD.

Special Features
Intelligent
Rasterizing
The DocuPrint 40 driver sends data to the printer only
once, regardless of the number of copies specified. This
conserves valuable network resources and allo ws users to
resume their applications quickly.
Once the data reaches the N40, it analyzes the job to
determine the amount of memory the rasterized data will
require. If there is sufficient memory, it will perform
Raster Image Processing (RIP) only once and hold the
rasterized pages in memory for use in printing each
successive copy.
Rasterizing is a time consuming part of the printing
process. On many small group laser printers, raster
processing is repeated for each successive copy. The
ability of the N40’s printer intelligence to determine that
particu lar jobs need to be rasterized once allows multiple
sets to be produced at rated printer speeds. This
enhances job performance.
Intelligent rasterizing is performed automatically by the
N40.

Toner Cartrid ge
Maintaining the printer in good operating condition is
essential to having a reliable, well-running machine.
For optimum performance, do not place the printer near vents
or dust-producing equipment. Particles in the air may ente r
the printer and cause failures in internal mechanisms.
For best results, clean the outside of the printer with a damp
cloth. For stubborn stains, soak the cloth in a mild detergent
before cleaning. Do not use strong detergents. Wipe the
printer with a soft dry cloth when finished. Always power the
printer off before cleaning. See Appendix B: Maintaining the Printer for more details.
The Toner Cartridge will print approximately 23,000
impressions of A4 or 8.5 x 11 paper under average operating
conditions (5% image area coverage). The number of prints
per cartridge will decrease if you routinely print dense text
and graphics.
Replace the Toner Cartridge as soon as you see the following
message at the printer's Control Panel display:
Low Toner
See Appendix A: DocuPrint N40 Ordering Information for
ordering a new toner cartridge and Appendix B: Maintaining the Printer for removal and installation instructions.

Recycling the Toner
Cartridge
Installing the
Maintenance Kit
The DocuPrint N40 Toner Cartridge can be recycled free
of charge to you. Follow the instructions packaged with
your new Toner Cartridge to recycle the old one.
The Maintenance Kit is comprised of a Fuser Cart ridge , a
Bias Transfer Roll (BTR) and Feedrolls (three for each
paper input tray). (In order to support all possible
configurations, fifteen feedrolls are shipped in each kit.)
The Fuser Cartridge, feedrolls and BTR have avera ge
useful lives of 300,000 impressions. At 285,000
impressions, this message will be displayed at the
printer’s Control Panel display:

Maintaining the Printer
Ideally, all three items of the Maintenance Kit should be
replaced at the same time to maintain a consistent
maintenance cycle. It is your responsibility to install the
Maintenance Kit to keep the machine in optimal condition. It
is also your responsibility to determine when this kit
installation is required.
All instructions necessary for replacing the Fuser, BTR
and feedrolls are contained in the Maintenance Kit. All
these components are designed to be user installable,
however a Xerox Service Representative can be called to
install the Maintenance Kit for a fee.
See Appendix A: DocuPrint N40 Ordering Information for
ordering information, and Appendix B: Maintaining the Printer for instructions on replacing the Maintenance Kit
items.

Moving the Printer
Moving the
Printer
When moving the printer a short distance, you do not have to
disassemble it. Simply power it OFF and disconnect all cords
before moving it (and be sure to notify all users that it will be
offline during the move).
If in the tabletop configuration, be sure to use two people as
shown in the section “Lifting and Carrying the Printer”
(page 1-23).
If in the console configuration, unlock the caste rs to roll the
printer. To avoid tipping the printer over, be sure not to tilt it
more than 10° as shown in Figure 1.7.

original shipping box or materials are not available, use a
sturdy packing box and generous amount of cushioning or
packing materials.
To prepare your printer for transportation, follow the
instructions below.
1. Power off the printer and disconnect the GFI power cord
and all interface cables.
2. Remove any paper handling options and repack each in
its original packaging.

Storing Paper
Storing Paper
The DocuPrint N40’s print quality is optimized when
paper and other print media are properly stored. Proper
storage ensures optimum print quality and trouble-free
printer options.
• Store the paper on a flat surface, in a relatively low
humidity environment.
• Avoid storing paper in such a way as to cause
wrinkling, bending, curling, etc.
• Do not unwrap paper until you are ready to use it, and
rewrap any paper you are not using.
• Do not expose paper to direct sunlight or high
humidity.

Automatic Tray Switching
Automatic Tray
Switching
Automatic tray switching, available for both PCL and
PostScript jobs, enables you to group two or more input
trays together into one logical tray, and in a specific order
in which the trays will be searched to satisfy an input
request. Tray switching is useful for:
• Increasing paper capacity.
When the current paper tray runs out of paper, the
printer automatically switches to the next tray in the
sequence, provided the paper si ze and type in the next
tray is the same size and type as that in the current
tray.
• Searching for the correct paper size and type.
If the paper size and type specified in your software
application does not match the paper loaded in the
current paper tray, the printer automatically searches
the next tray in the sequence f or a pape r size and ty pe
that matches.
• Loading paper in one tray while printing from another
tray (filling an empty tray while printing).
Tray switching is made possible via the Tray Sequence
item in the Control Panel’s Tray Menu. It enables
grouping of Trays 1 and 2 in the printer, the 50 Sheet
Bypass Feeder, and Trays 3, 4 and 5 in the 2,500 Sheet
Feeder (if installed) into a variety of sequence
combinations. Tray switching can also be turned off.

Table 2.3 describes the paper selection process based on
fully defined or partially defined paper selection
parameters. A paper request may include one or more of
the following parameters: paper tray, paper size, paper
type (e.g., plain, letterhead, etc.).
Specifying a paper source (a speci fic tra y) does no t guarante e
that paper will be fed from that tray if the type and size can
be satisfied from another source. The exception to this is a
manual feed request, which always from the 50 Sheet Bypass
Feeder unless overridden by the printer operator.

Automatic Tray Switching
The fourth column of Table 2.3 defines which paper size
and paper type to use based on fully o r pa rtially speci fied
paper selection parameters. After the type and size are
determined, the next step is to determine which paper
tray to use to satisfy the request. If the request can be
satisfied by one of the currently configured trays, then the
appropriate paper tray is used. (Note that the fourth
column of Table 2.3 does not list a paper source to use,
even though the paper source may be specified.)
• If the paper source is specified, and the other
parameters can be satisfied by that paper source, then
the specified source is used.
• If the specified source cannot satisfy the request, but
another source can satisfy the paper size and type
requested, then that alternate source is used, with no
operator intervention required.
• If the specified source cannot satisfy the request, but
another source can satisfy the request but is out of
paper, then the operator is prompted to load paper in
the empty tray that can satisfy the request.

Tray Sequence Rules
When you define a Tray Sequence, the printer searches
the input trays for the correct size and type of paper for
each job that is submitted.
• If you do not specify an input tray when sending a job
to the printer (e.g., no paper source command is sent,
or the paper source is set to “Auto” in PCL), the trays
included in the Tray Sequence are searched first (in
the sequence order), before other trays not in the
sequence.
• If you specify an input tray when sending a job to the
printer , and t hat tray is inclu ded in the Tray Sequence,
the printer will check that tray for the correct size and
type of paper.
— If the tray contains the c orrect pa per, then it is used.
— If the tray does not cont ain the correct paper (e.g., it
contains other paper or is empty), the other trays in
the sequence are searched.
-If any of these trays contains the correct paper,
then it is used.
-If any of these trays are set to the correct paper
size and type b ut al l of the tra ys in the seq uen ce
are empty, then the printer will prompt you to
load paper into the specified tray.
-If no trays in the sequence are set to the correct
paper size and type, then the remaining trays
are searched. If there are no trays that can
satisfy the request, then the printer will prompt
you to load paper into the specified tray.
• If you include “MBF” in the Tray Sequence setting, a
request to feed paper from any other tray in the
sequence will be overridden and the printer will
attempt to feed paper from the 50 Sheet Bypass Feeder
first. If the 50 Sheet Bypass Feeder is out of paper, then
the other trays in the sequence are searched.

Paper Size/Type
Mismatch
Paper size/type mismatch occurs when the requested size
is not available in the printer. This can be caused by
running out of paper in a tray that is configured for the
requested paper, or by requesting a paper that is not
configured in the printer. The printer goes off-line under
paper mismatch conditions. It automatically returns
on-line and continues printing after the paper mismatch
condition is resolved.
If a tray is configured for the reque sted paper, but the tray
is out of paper, the display prompts you to load the
requested paper (size and type) in the appropriate tray.
After the tray is loaded, printing continues.
If the request is for paper that is not configured in the
printer, you are prompted to load the requested paper in
the first tray of the Tray Sequence setting.
If you do not want to load paper in the first tray of the
Tray Sequence setting, two options are available:
• One of the trays m ay be lo aded with the re queste d size

The 200 Sheet Face-up Output Bin and the 10-bin Mailbox/
Collator do not support offsetting.
The following conditions must be met before offsetting
occurs between jobs:
• The offset function occurs only between successive
jobs that are both destined for the Face-down Bin.
For example, a print job may contain a banner sheet in
PCL that precedes a PostScript print job. If they are
both directed to the Face-down Bin, the banner sheet
is offset from the PostScript job. If the banner sheet is
directed to the Face-up Bin (no offset capability) and
the PostScript job is directed to the Face-down Bin,
offset does not occur between the banner sheet and
the PostScript job. If, however, the next job is directed
to the Face-down Bin, offset will occur between the
PostScript job and the next job.
• The offset function occurs between successive jobs
directed to the Face-down Bin only if the jobs contain
data that results in a sheet being printed a nd delivered
to the bin.
For example, if a PCL job contains <ESCAPE>E
sequences at the beginning of a job and there is no
printable data separating these commands, the offset
does not occur (even though these escape sequences
are valid job boundaries).

Printing to the
Mailbox/Collator
The 10-bin Mailbox/Collator, shown in Figure 1.2 on
page 1-7, is an optional output device available for the
DocuPrint N40. It handles all supported paper sizes,
except A6 and envelopes, in 10 individually addressable
bins at up to 100 sheets per bin.
(See Appendix A: DocuPrint N40 Ordering Information
for ordering information. See Appendix C: Installing and Removing Printer Options for installation instructions.)
The Mailbox/Collator offers the following capabilities:
• Directing output to a specific mailbox bin.
• Sorting by sending individual copies (up to 10) of a
multiple set job to separate mailbox bins.
• Printing multiple collated sets (2 to 10 sets) of a job.
Click for Updated Information
Using a DocuPrint N40 printer driver, select a specific bin
for the paper output destination for your job, then print
your job. Selecting a bin enables you to send a job to that
bin.
For information on setting a Mailbox bin as the printer’s
default output bin, see page 3-42.

The Display
The Control Panel's display performs two functions.
1. It informs you of printer status conditions, such as
when toner is low , when a paper tray is e mpty , w hen a
job is in process, and so on. For example, when you
turn on the printer, you see the following message on
the display:

This message appears whenever the printer is online
and ready to accept print jobs. The display will also
show:

2. It presents a hierarchy of menu options and settings to
configure and control the printer.

The four indicator lights provide inf or mation about the
operation of the printer.
Table 3.1 on page 3-5 describes the function of each
Indicator Light.
Control Panel Features
Table 3.1Indicator lights and their functions
LightFunction
On Line (Green)When this light is On, it indicates the printer is online. The printer is
offline when the light is Off. When the light flashes, the printer is going
from online to offline.
Form Feed (Green)This light is On when the printer experiences a form feed timeout. A
form feed timeout is when a PCL job has formatted a partial page, the
printer is waiting for more data in order to continue processing the job,
and a 15 second timeout period has expired with no new data arriving in
the input buffer. This timeout applies to all ports.
When the Form Feed light is On, you can print a partial page by entering
the Job menu, scrolling to the Form Feed item and pressing Enter.
When not in the Menu system, a partial page can be printed by pressing
Enter. PostScript does not print partial pages and consequently the
Form Feed light is not turned On.
The Form Feed li ght is turned Off w hen either an actual Form Feed
character is received or the Form Feed function is invoked by pressing
Enter on the Job Menu when the Form Feed item is displayed.
Fault (Amber)The Error light is On whenever operator intervention is required in order
to allow printing to continue.
Data (Green)When online, this light flashes to indicate that data are being processed
by either PostScript, PCL or PJL, or is being spooled to the disk (e.g., a
proof or secure job). If data are not being processed, or either PostScript
or PCL is processing a job but waiting for data (input buffer empty), this
light is Off.
When the light flashes, d ata are being received by one of the e mulat ions
(i.e., PJL, PCL or PostScript). When a proof or secure job is sent to the
printer, this light flashes while the job is being received, even though
data are not being printed. At a later time, you can enter a password to
request printing the proof or secure jo b.
This light also flashes during processing of proof or secure jobs from the
disk.
