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

Matchingthe Trayand Stock Information

Important
To ensure maximum productivity and successful job completion, always verify that the Tray Properties information (from the Stock Library Manager on the print server) matches the actual stock / media that is loaded in the tray being used for the print job.
Before running a print job, check for any of the following conditions:
• Modifications were made to the Stock Library, such as
- Adding a stock,
- Copying a stock,
- Creating a new stock,
Quick Start Guide
3-3Xerox®Versant®3100 Press
Paper and Media
- Editing an existing stock
• Stock / media was loaded into the selected tray for the print job
• The tray selected for the print job was opened / closed
Note
If any of these conditions apply, verify that the Tray Properties information matches the actual tray contents.
If the stock loaded in the tray does not match the information on the Tray Properties window, then a message may be displayed in one or more of the following ways:
• On the User Interface of the press
• On the Stock Library Manager application (on the print server)
• On the print server
• On both the Stock Library Manager and the print server
• On the Stock Library Manager, the print server, and possibly on the press User Interface
Tip
Stock / tray mismatch informationand how it is displayed is dependent on the individual print server. If stock is changed in a tray, a message may not be displayed; therefore it is important to always perform the following steps before running a print job.
1. Check for a tray mismatch message on the press User Interface. If a mismatch message is displayed, select it. A new message displays and explains what media is required and the tray location.
2. Go the print server and check the main / home window for a similar message:
• If a message exists, follow the information provided on the print server to correct
the stock mismatch issue, and continue to the next step.
• If a message does not exist, continue to the next step.
3. Load the stock in the tray. If the User Interface on the press displays a mismatch message, followthe instructions
provided to load the correct stock.
4. Change the Tray Properties to match the contents of the tray; this is done from the Stock Library Manager on the print server.
a) Verify the paper size, type (coated, uncoated), and weight of the paper loaded
in the tray.
b) If necessary, enter that information on the Tray Properties window.
5. Ensure that the tray is closed.
6. Ensure that all tray / stock mismatch messages have been resolved.
7. Start your print job.

Checking the Status of Consumables

The Supplies area of the Home window on the press control panel displays an overview of the level of dry ink / toner remaining in each cartridge. As the dry ink / toner is used, the colored line representing each cartridge becomes shorter.
When a consumable is reaching the time it needs to be replaced, a message is displayed on the control panel touch screen. This indicates when it is time to order and/or install a new consumable item. With some Customer Replaceable Units (CRUs), the screen indicates that the press may continue to run print jobs without immediately replacing the item. Otherwise, when it is time to replace it, a message appears and the press stops running.
To check the status of your consumables:
1. Press the Home button on the control panel.
Notice the Supplies area showing a 1-to-100% indicator bar that shows the remaining amount of dry ink / toner.
