Defining User Setup - Xerox 8142 Reference Manual

Introduction
End of plot dry
At the completion of a print job, End of Plot (EOP) Dry ON with Rewind enables the printer to automatically
advance the media at the printing speed 12 inches to allow the image to fully pass the heater. The media is then
fed back into the printer at 25% of the normal reserve speed to avoid cockling on the retract move. Dry ON
without Rewind allows the media to be advanced over the heater, but there may be blank media between prints.
End of Print Dry OFF does not perform this at job completion and should be used when multiple plots are being
printed.
Note: EOP does not work at the end of a roll of media where it is taped to the core. Before printing, be sure
there is sufficient media left on the roll to do the print and advance the entire print past the dryer. You can deter-
mine whether there is sufficient media by choosing Feed Media Menu/Media Counter.
To set EOP dry
1 Press Setup Menu/Dryer Menu/End of Plot.
2 Choose On.
3 Press OK.

Defining user setup

You can save the options you use most frequently so you don't have to reconfigure the printer each time you print
an image. You can define up to eight different combinations of options and save them with a user number ranging
from 1-8. Select the user number you want to use before sending an image to the printer.
Note: If your printer driver has host-controlled settings, the user setup may be overridden. If possible, disable the
driver control settings.
You can save settings for the following options:
• Auto-Cut
• Carriage Speed
• Media Standard
