The IP Address assigned at the print server allows you to access the press features and
settings from any computer workstation.

Customizing the Press Screen

The administrator may customize the following features:

• Whether certain screens will display or not on the press touch screen.

• Specify when screens may be displayed such as after the press is switched on or when

it exits the Power Saver mode.

Power Saver

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 then enters Sleep mode. These time
intervals for both modes can be changed by the system administrator.

System Administration Guide

1-3Xerox®Versant®3100 Press

Getting Started

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.

Note

Refer to Set/Change the Power Saver Time Intervals for complete information on how
to set time intervals and other setting options for the Power Saver feature.

Low Power Mode

In this mode, the power to the press and Control Panel is lowered to save power. The
touch screen goes out and the Power Saver button on the Control Panel lights. To use
the press, select the Power Saver button. The Power Saver button goes out to indicate
that the Power Saver feature is canceled.

Sleep Mode

In this mode, the power is lowered more than in the Low Power mode. The press touch
screen goes out and the Power Saver button on the press Control Panel lights. To use
the press, select the Power Saver button. The Power Saver button goes out to indicate
that the Power Saver feature is canceled.

Exiting Power Saver Mode

The press exits power saver mode either by pressing the Power Saver button on the
Control Panel or when it receives print data for an incoming print job.

to correct and adjust density nonuniformity on prints

• Clean Fuser Assembly - If needed, run this image quality procedure to clean and
remove dry ink/toner debris that may appear on the back side of prints

• DFA Finisher Profile - If the press includes third-party, Document Finishing
Architecture (DFA) inline finishing devices, this feature is enabled to create a profile
of the finisher and add/edit/delete its attributes

System Settings and Setup & Calibration

System Settings

Under System Settings, you can access and configure:

• Common Service Settings

• Network Controller Settings

• Connectivity & Network Setup

Note

Refer to those chapters of this guide on how and when to set these features.

Setup and Calibration

Under Setup, you can access Billing Impression Mode and view billing information on
the press. This information is also available from the Machine Status button under the
Billing Information tab.

Full Width Array (FWA) Features

The Full Width Array features are used to optimize image quality on the press and can
be performed by the operator or the administrator. Refer to the User Guide on when
and how to use the FWA adjustment procedures.

Clean Fuser Assembly Routine

If you see dry ink / toner debris on the back of the printout, select and run the Clean
Fuser Assembly routine from the press touch screen to automatically clean the fuser
component. This process addresses image quality issues caused by contaminants in the
fuser.

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 one of two areas
in the press: the Transfer Roll or the Fuser Assembly Roll.

Note

While this cleaning procedure can be performed by the operator in Guest mode, only
the Administrator mode can select from two methods of cleaning. In Guest mode,
cleaning the fuser is restricted to running blank sheets only.

System Administration Guide

1-5Xerox®Versant®3100 Press

Getting Started

1. Log in as Administrator.

2. Select the Tools button on the press Control Panel.

3. Select the Clean Fuser Assembly icon.

4. From the screen that displays, select the method the routine will use to remove the

unfused dry ink/toner:

• Clean with Paper - press prints blank sheets to remove the dry ink / toner from

the fuser

• Clean with Felt - press removes the dry ink / toner from the fuser by applying

the felt against the pressure roll (no paper is used)

5. If you selected the Clean with Paper option:

• From Paper Supply, select the paper tray to use.

Note

Any type of paper and size can be used. However, the smooth surface of coated
paper does offer more contact area to the pressure roll.

• From Number of Sheets, select the number of blank sheets to run (1 to 5).

Note

For best results, run a minimum of 5 sheets.

6. Select Save.

7. Press the Start button. The system begins the cleaning process and displays a

“successfully completed” message when finished. Select OK.

Note

The process with 5 sheets of paper will take approximately one minute.

DFA Finisher Profile (for Third-Party Finishing Devices)

If the press is installed with third-party inline finishers (Document Finishing Architecture
devices that follow the Standard Finisher Plus and Interface Module), DFA Finisher
profiling will have been enabled during installation. As a result, the DFA Finisher Profile
feature will be viewable from the Tools area of the press touch screen for the system
administrator to make any further changes or additions to the DFA profiling of the
devices on the system.

Use the DFA Finisher Profile feature to create a profile for the specified DFA device and
add, edit or delete attributes for the device, such as timing values.

Note

For information about the DFA settings to enter for the device, refer to the third-party
DFA Finisher documentation.

Note

To set up the job workflow for third-party DFA finishers, always enter the DFA profiles
on the press first and then enter those attributes through the Profile tab in the Stock
Library Manager application on the print server.
