Apps, Features, and Functions

I N T R O D U C T I O N TO A P P S
Xerox Apps are a gateway to the features and functions of your device. Standard Apps are installed already on the
device and appear on the Home screen. Some Apps are installed as standard, but are hidden the first time you use
the device.
When you log in, the Apps configured for your personal account appear on the control panel.
You can download more Apps for your device from the Xerox
App Gallery.

There are two features that you can configure for the device to perform specific actions when originals are detected
in the automatic document feeder:
• Default Screen When Originals Are Detected: This feature sets the default app to launch when original
documents are loaded in the automatic document feeder. The setting applies when the device control panel
displays the Home screen only.
• Auto Start When Originals Are Detected: This option enables the Auto Start feature. The Auto Start feature
allows the device to start a job automatically within an app. For example, the device can be configured to
launch the Copy app automatically when media is detected in the automatic document feeder. The Auto Start
feature applies to Copy, Email, Fax, Scan To, and 1-Touch Apps. Auto Start can be enabled for individual apps, or
for all supported apps.
When both the Auto Start When Originals Are Detected feature and the Default Screen When Originals Are
Detected feature are enabled for an app, you can create touchless workflows. The following example describes this
scenario for a 1-Touch App, based on the Copy App. If the 1-Touch App is selected as the default app when
originals are detected, and Auto Start is enabled for the 1-Touch App. The control panel displays the Home screen.
When a user places original documents in the automatic document feeder, the device launches the 1-Touch App
automatically. The copy is initiated within 7 seconds, unless the user cancels the automatic operation.
When Personalization is enabled, a logged-in user can personalize their default app for when originals are detected.
The personalized setting for the default app when originals are detected applies to a logged-in user when the
control panel displays the Home screen. The preferred app opens when the user places documents in the automatic
document feeder.
For more information about creating and using 1–Touch Apps, refer to Personalize.
For detailed instructions on how to configure Entry Screen Defaults and the Auto Start feature, refer to the System
Administrator Guide at www.xerox.com/office/ALB81XXdocs.
