Job submission and workflow

Jobs are sent to the Xerox 4110 EPS/4590 EPS network printer by way of the DocuSP Controller, which is the interface between the printer and the client workstation. The DocuSP Controller accepts, processes and manages the print-ready jobs for printing.
Jobs can be submitted over the network and received by the DocuSP Controller in any of the following ways:
Jobs submitted from an application on a PC client workstation using print drivers within the application that convert the job to a print-ready file and submit it for printing
Web submission of print-ready files (PDF or PS) using a web browser or the Xerox FreeFlow Print Manager
Importing jobs on a CD or USB drive at the DocuSP Controller
The jobs submitted are either printed immediately or sent to a queue on the DocuSP Controller where they are held for job setup and printed at a later time.
NOTE: For more information on setting up a job for printing, defining job properties, and managing jobs on the DocuSP Controller, refer to the DocuSP Online Help or customer documentation.

For example, if the system administrator sets the Low Power Mode for 30 minutes and the Sleep Mode for 60 minutes, the machine enters Low Power Mode after 30 minutes of inactivity. If the machine continues to remain inactive for an additional 30 minutes, it then enters Sleep Mode.

Exit the Power Saver Mode

The Power Saver Mode exits automatically whenever print data is received by the printer.
1. Press the Power Saver button on the Control Panel.
NOTE: The period of time indicated for the Power Saver Mode to begin is set by the System Administrator. See the System Administrator Guide for adju sting the setti ngs for Low Power mode and Sleep mode.

Paper tray features

Automatic paper size detection feature

This section provides an overview of the paper tray features and functionality on the 4590 EPS/4110 EPS printer.
When you load standard-sized paper in trays 3, 4, 6 and 7, the size is automatically detected by the machine.
NOTE: Tr ays 1 and 2 are preset for paper size 8.5 x 11 inches. The machine detects only that size in trays 1 and 2.
The paper type attribute is not automatically detected and must be set. Normally, plain paper is set as the default for each of the trays. Change the paper type settings if you load other paper types. Up to five paper types can be named and set as user­defined paper.
For details about changing the paper type, refer to “Paper Tray Attributes” in the System Administrat ion Guide.

Automatic paper tray selection feature

The machine automatically selects the paper tray containing the correct size paper without the user needing to select a specific paper tray.
The Automatic Tray Selection feature is active if Auto Size Detect is selected for Paper Size. Set the Paper Type Priority order for
automatic tray selection from the Paper Tray Settings screen. If the machine senses that there are two or more corresponding
trays (the Paper Type Priority setting is exactly the same), paper selection is determined by the Paper T ray Priorit y order set at the
Paper Tray Settings screen. During automatic tray selection, trays
whose Paper Type Priority setting is set to Off are not targeted in
automatic tray selection.
NOTE: Tr ay 5 (Bypass) cannot be selected when the automatic tray selection feature is active.
For information about setting Paper Type , Paper Type Priority, Paper Tray Priority, and setting the paper substi tute feature, ref er to “Paper Tray Settings” in the System Administration Guide. The same settings can also be made from CentreWare Internet Services. See your System Administrator for help.

Xerox 4590 EPS/4110 EPS User Guide

Automatic tray switching feature

When the paper tray currently being used is empty, the machine automatically switches to another tray containing paper of the same size, weight, type and feeding orientation (SEF or LEF) as the tray currently being used.
This feature is enabled from the Administration Mode in the Paper Tray Settings screen.
See your System Administrator. Details about the paper tray settings are found in the System Administration Guide.

Load While Run

For continuous and uninterrupted printing, this feature allows toner to be replaced and paper stock to be loaded in the trays while the printer is still printing.
2. Paper and other media

Paper tray programming

NOTE: For information on programming paper tr ay attributes on the DocuSP Controller, refer to the DocuSP online Help.
Once you load the paper in the printer paper trays, you may need to update the paper tray attribute settings to match the tray contents. The Paper Color attribute for all trays must be set at the Printer Manager on the DocuSP Controller. Settings for the Paper Type, Paper Weight and Paper Size are programmed at either the machine user interface or the DocuSP Controller depending on the tray.
The paper tray attribute settings for trays 1-4 and 6-7 are programmed on the machine user interface and the settings are automatically uploaded to the Printer Manager on the DocuSP Controller.
The paper tray attribute settings for Tray 5 (Bypass), however, are programmed at the DocuSP Controller. Since Tray 5 does not have stock size guides, do not program Tray 5 settings at the machine user interface. The DocuSP Controller will download the settings from the Printer Manager to the printer and set the tray attributes for Tray 5.
Set or change all Tray 8 paper tray attributes at the DocuSP Controller.
