Power Saver Mode

The Power Saver feature allows the press to enter a reduced power consumption mode when all print jobs have completed and there are no jobs currently processing. There are two power saving modes: Low Power and Sleep.
Low Power: After remaining inactive for a preset time period, the press enters the Low Power
mode.
Sleep: After entering Low Power mode and remaining inactive for another preset time period, the
press enters the Sleep mode.
By default, the press automatically enters the Low Power mode after 1 minute of inactivity. After 1 minute of inactivity, the press enters Sleep mode. The system administrator can change the time intervals for both modes.
Refer to the following example:
Low Power Mode is set to 1 minute.
Sleep Mode is set to 10 minutes.
Sleep Mode activates after 10 minutes of total inactivity and not 10 minutes after the Low Power
Mode begins.
For information on changing the time intervals, refer to Setting / Changing the Power Saver Time
Intervals.

When you have an image quality issue caused by contaminants in the fuser, run the Clean Fuser Assembly routine from the Tools menu. For example, use this feature when you see dry ink/toner
debris on the back side of prints.
The press automatically runs this routine periodically. However, if you see image quality problems with dry ink/toner on the back of prints, you can initiate this procedure manually.

Administrator Overview
Note: If you still notice contaminants on the back of the prints after running this procedure,
contact Xerox Service. Dry ink/toner debris can originate from either of two areas in the press:
the Transfer Roll or the Fuser Assembly Roll.
CClleeaann FFuusseerr AAsssseemmbbllyy MMeetthhooddss
The Clean Fuser Assembly feature provides two methods for running the routine:
Clean with Paper: This method runs blank sheets through the press to remove any residual dry
ink/toner from the fuser.
Note: Any press operator can use the Clean with Paper method. This cleaning
method does not require administrator login.
Clean with Felt: This method uses felt that is equipped inside the press to remove any dry ink/
toner from the fuser. Simply apply the felt against the pressure roll. Any residual dry ink/toner is removed. This method does not use paper.
Note: You must log in as an administrator to use the Clean with Felt method.

Note: Although you can use any type and size of paper, the smooth surface of coated
paper has more contact area to the pressure roll.
7. From Number of Sheets, select the number of blank sheets to run (1 — 5).
Note: For best results, run fewer sheets for more times. It is more effective to run one or
two sheets for multiple times than to run five sheets for one time only. This is especially important when running larger sheets, in the short-edge-feed (SEF) direction, such as 11 x 17 in. or A4 paper.

Select Sample Number: When [Select Sample Number this is selected, select from the preset
adjustment values, between -5 and 10.
Adjust Regi-Loop
Use this option to adjust and correct skew that may be occurring in the lead direction of the sheet as it is being fed through the paper path. Adjusting the loop varies the amount of paper buckle that occurs against the registration gate, thereby optimizing the correction of lead skew.
For the pre-registration feed, set the adjustment value between -9 and 9 mm in 0.3 mm increments.
Adjust Regi-Loop during Side Shifting
If side-to-side shifting often occurs during paper feeding, you can use this option to correct side shifting and feed skew. Select from Auto, Side Shifting & Feed Skew Correction, Side Shifting Only, Feed Skew Correction Only, and Off.
Select Auto to apply auto correction for side shifting and feed skew. Select Off for no auto correction.
Adjust Fold Position
Use this feature to adjust the fold position for various paper types, as well as set adjustment values to various default types. For more information, refer to Adjust Fold Position.
Note: This option is available only if the press is equipped with one of these optional finishing
devices: PR Finisher, PR Booklet Maker Finisher, or PR Finisher Plus.
Adjust Image Transfer for Trail Edge
This option raises or lowers the transfer voltage timing to the Second (2nd) Bias Transfer Roll, which in turn reduces trail edge deletions on the output.
Note: This adjustment should not be used for trail edge flip problems which are caused by
heavyweight stock.
When an irregular color occurs only at the trail edge when using heavyweight paper, adjust the voltage ratio at the second transfer roll in the transfer module. This is where the image transfers from the belt to the paper. Adjusting the voltage may improve the output and eliminate the problem. Set

the adjustment settings between 0 and 100% in 1% increments.
Note: When the voltage ratio at the second transfer roll is too high or too low for the paper to
use, the transfer failure occurs. If the failure occurs, adjust the ratio accordingly.
Adjust Paper Speed at Transfer Module
This option is used very infrequently. In the press, the distance between the Second Transfer and Fuser is very small. When feeding large paper sizes, the paper is nipped (gripped) simultaneously by both the Second Transfer and Fuser. Occasionally, the paper is pulled between the Second Transfer and Fuser, which may cause paper damage and / or image defect on the output. When this happens, this option allows you to make very small adjustments in order to successfully feed paper through the Second Transfer and Fuser areas without damage or defects. The adjustment amounts range from
-0.5% to a maximum of 0.5%. The default is 0 (zero).

The purpose of this adjustment is to specific image quality issues on the printed output, such as:
Black (K) line smears at lead edge area of the print output; these smears occur at approximately 10 mm from the lead edge. Black (K) line smears can be corrected by increasing the primary (first) transfer current. This smear occurs primarily with black (K).
Ghosting: The image blurs, white lines, or ghosts by transfer defect occur. Adjusting the other colors, Cyan (C), Magenta (M), and Yellow (Y), may also be adjusted to correct these problems.
Increase the voltage ratio when image blurs occur in the front portion of the paper (the area within the first 10 mm).
Decrease the voltage ratio when white lines or ghosts occur in the halftone area.
Note: If the voltage ratio is increased too much, color defects may occur. If the voltage ratio is
decreased too much, low toner density or blurs may occur.
Adjust Fusing Temperature
This option allows the user to adjust the fuser temperature for specific media types. Under most conditions, the fuser temperature is adjusted automatically by the press at point of need. However, on infrequent occasions the user may need to minimally adjust the fuser temperature for specific stock weights or a specific job flow.
Example: The printed output shows signs of offset or flaking dry ink/toner. This may be caused by:
Specific media/stock, such as coated or silk media
The fuser temperature being too low or too high
The temperature of the fuser may be adjusted within a range of -10° to +10° Celsius (14° - 50° Fahrenheit).
The default setting is 0 (zero). It is recommended that you leave this option at its default setting until you run test prints and evaluate the output of the prints.
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.

Adjust Fusing Speed
This option allows the user to adjust the fuser speed for specific media types. Under most conditions, the fuser speed is adjusted automatically by the press at point of need. However, on infrequent occasions the user may need to minimally adjust the fuser speed for specific stock weights or a specific job flow.
This adjustment is a countermeasure for the smear that occurs on the output print at 208 mm from the lead edge. This smear is caused by a speed mismatch between the paper lead edge in the fuser nip and the middle of the paper in the Second Transfer nip.
If this smear occurs on the output print (at 208 mm from lead edge), the fuser speed can be increased (up to +2 or 3%). This will help correct this defect.
Tray Heater
Use this feature to maintain the appropriate internal temperature of the paper tray by providing the required air to the paper stack, thereby preventing multifeeds or misfeeds from occurring. 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. This option works in conjunction with the Auto Air Assist
Values option.
Multifeed Detection
Note: Use this option only with the Trays 6, 7, 8 and 9. It does not function with Trays 1-3.
Use this feature to detect and prevent multiple sheets from being pulled simultaneously from the tray.
Select On or Off. When this option is On, the press detects and prevents multiple sheets from being pulled simultaneously from the tray.
When this option is Off, the press ignores any multiple sheets that may feed through the paper path.
Disable this option only as a temporary measure to continue the workflow until the service representative resolves the problem.

Adjustments can be made to the image based on the alignment output of a document. Various adjustments can be modified such as: image position, scale, and skew. This can be achieved through the use of the twenty default adjustment types. In addition, a specific paper tray can be assigned to a specific adjustment type.
Adjustments can be made when the position of the output image is misaligned or skewed. This may be a result of paper expansion or contraction, cutting inaccuracy, or paper storage conditions. To compensate for this scenario, the Manual Alignment Adjustment feature can be used to adjust the image alignment.
The following adjustments can be made to the position of the output image.
Squareness Adjustment (Skew): Adjust a skewed image
Scale Adjustment: Adjust this when the size (scale) of the printed image is offset
Print Position Adjustment: Use this option when making adjustments to the lead edge of the image (X direction) and side edge of the image (Y direction). For example, use this when the images on sides 1 and 2 are misaligned.

Paper Curl Correction Overview
This feature allows you to select the desired paper curl setting in order to prevent your output from curling.
When paper is exposed to heat, the paper loses moisture and curls toward the heat source. High dry ink/toner coverage jobs tend to curl more due to the dry ink/toner plasticization effect on the paper surface.
Paper curl is caused by many variables, including:
The weight of the paper and whether it is coated or uncoated
The amount of dry ink/toner and the area being covered on a sheet: the heavier the coverage, the greater the tendency to curl
How the paper is loaded in the tray; load the paper as instructed on the ream wrapper
The atmospheric conditions of the room where the paper is stored, especially those related to humidity and temperature
The heat generated during the fusing processes

System Settings
Tip: Successful paper curl correction varies from day to day. A successful setting used on one
day may not be successful on another day. This is especially relevant if the room in which press
is located experiences changes in temperature and humidity.
Automatic Paper Curl Correction
Your press is designed with an automated setting to control curl; this automated setting does not require the user to make any Adjust Paper Curl selections. The press automatically sends paper through the proper decurler and automatically determines the amount of pressure needed at the different decurlers in order to reduce the output curl of the paper.
However, with some print jobs, the output prints may be curled more than you desire even with the automated control setting of the press. There may be other ways to correct curl before using the Adjust Paper Curl option, depending on your press and any optional devices attached to it, such as the Interface Decurler Module.
Note: For information on correcting paper curl with the Interface Decurler Module, refer to the
User Guide section entitled Interface Decurler Module.
Correcting Paper Curl from Adjust Paper Curl
If neither the press nor the Interface Decurler Module (if applicable) corrects the paper curl, then use the Adjust Paper Curl option to compensate for paper curl. Adjust Paper Curl options are based on the job type and image density ratio.
Note: Always refer to the latest Recommended Media List (RML) for the press for the
recommended paper types and weights and the default paper curl (decurler) settings to use
with them. The RML can be downloaded from www.xerox.com.
Paper Curl Adjustment Types
There are three types of predefined adjustment configurations on the press. Select Type B to check the printed results first, then select Type A or Type C accordingly.
Adjustment Type Description
Type A Use this setting when the printed output contains
upward curl.
Type B This is the press default setting and is also the
standard type for paper curl adjustment.
Type C Use this setting when the printed output contains
downward curl.
If a predefined option (Type A, Type B, or Type C) does not result in proper adjustment, select an appropriate adjustment type that reflects the characteristics of the selected paper and output format. You can create a maximum of ten (10) configurations for paper curl correction.
The following is an example of a manual paper curl adjustment type.

When printing at high speeds, “blocking” can sometimes occur in document stacks. This refers to paper sticking together in the output stack because the ink is not yet dry. The Ink Setoff Prevention option manages this issue by essentially slowing down the print engine so that the ink has a chance to dry.
The Ink Setoff Prevention option is generally not needed; however, it may be used for the following conditions:
In high temperature / high humidity environments
With specific stocks such as 140 g/m
When using the Business Ready (BR) Finisher or the Offset Catch Tray (OCT) and printing stacks at
high speed
When the option is On, the press skips pitches allowing the paper to cool down more between sheets stacking up. The default setting is Off.

Memory Full Procedure
While scanning/copying an original, if there is insufficient space on the device hard disk, a screen appears. This screen asks the user how to handle the partially stored data. If the user does not respond to this screen and a predetermined amount of time elapses, then the machine will either cancel the job or run the partially scanned-in/copied job. The setting selected here determines how the machine will handle that partially scanned-in/copied job. Select one of two choices:
Delete Job: The stored data is deleted from the device hard disk.
Run Job: The scanned-in/copied data is treated as valid and complete and the job printed as-

Simple Image Quality Adjustment (SIQA) is a set of maintenance tools that adjust the quality of the printed images generated by the press. SIQA performs three types of adjustments:
Alignment: The Alignment procedure generates an individual alignment profile for each stock/
tray combination selected when performing the procedure. These profiles ensure that images are placed correctly on the media. You can create a maximum of 50 profiles. Each created profile is then automatically used each time the associated stock is used, ensuring optimal print quality.
Density Uniformity: The Density Uniformity procedure adjusts print engine tables to ensure that
ink is deposited uniformly and consistently across the entire surface of a page for each print.
Image Transfer: This tool corrects for uneven toner and color shift by creating an Image Transfer
Adjustment to the Bias Transfer Roll in the press. The adjustment is created and saved for specific stocks and can be selected for any tray when printing on those stocks.
These are the three sets of steps that are performed when calibrating the press with the SIQA tools:
1. Print the SIQA targets.
2. Scan the targets using either the Document Feeder or the Platen Glass.
3. Save the adjustment data to a file on the press providing the file with a unique name.
The adjustment profile is then complete and can be selected by users for print runs, as needed.

Auto Alignment Adjustment

The Auto Alignment procedure generates an individual alignment profile for each stock/tray combination selected when performing the procedure. These profiles ensure that images are placed correctly on the media. You can create up to 50 profiles. Each created profile will then be automatically used each time the associated stock is used, ensuring optimal print quality.

1. If not done already, print a pattern that is used during this procedure. Print the PDF file called Black Background Sheet, which is on www.xerox.com under the Versant Press Documentation.
The Black Background Sheet is needed when you create profiles for media over 220 g/m larger than A3 (11x17 in.).
2. Depending on your region, print the file 2-sided on either A3 or 11x17 in. media.

or
The weight in g/m2is not important, but a higher g/m2results in a longer sheet life. After the sheet prints, you can reuse it and do not have to print it again until it gets worn with use.
3. At the press user interface, press the Log In/Out button.
4. Enter the system administrator login ID and password using the numeric keypad, then select Enter. The default user name is admin, and the default administrator password is the press serial number.
Note: By default, the password prompt is not enabled.

8. Select Auto Alignment Adjustment.
9. Select Print Calibration Chart.
10. Select Paper Supply.
11. For the adjustment or profile, select the Paper Supply tray.
12. Select the Save button.
13. If needed, set the area coverage. Coverage is the amount of toner that covers the page.
Coverage 1 is for side 1 of the page, and Coverage 2 is for side 2. You can leave the coverage set to 1 as standard. However, if you experience alignment problems repeatedly on print jobs with high area coverage, you can increase this value incrementally up to 10.
14. Set the number of sheets to print. With multiple sheets, the software uses the average values from all sheets to make adjustments. Therefore, it is best to set the Number of Sheets to at least 5, so that the variation between the sheets is reduced.
15. Select Print.
16. After the prints are output, touchConfirm.
17. Collect the printed targets from the output area of the press.

Continue to Scanning the Targets.
