USAGE GUIDELINES FOR XEROX COLOR COPIERS AND PRINTERS

•
If attempting to run two sided copies, run the side with the
lightest image, or the side with no color (black-only) on side
one, and the higher density, or the color image on side two.
•
If your machine requires manual duplexing, load the copies/
prints with the side one image in the appropriate tray (refer to
your Recommended Materials List) so that the trail edge of
side one is used as the lead edge for side two.
While running side two, continuously monitor the copies as
they exit the machine. Look at the back side (side one) of the
copy to see of any image offsetting has occurred. If offsetting
is seen, stop the job immediately and clean the fusing system.
This condition will only get worse if more copies are run.
To clean the fusing system, run about 10 blank sheets of paper
through the machine. When the bottom side of the blank
sheets comes out clean, continue to run the side two copies.
To run a large quantity of two-sided copies, you may need to
intersperse short runs of two-copies between single-sided
runs to keep the fusing system from becoming contaminated
again.
•
Dry ink coverage/saturation on electronic originals should be
adjusted through various settings in application software and/
or the Digital Front End (DFE)/Raster Image Processor (RIP)
to optimize the output quality. Higher dry ink coverage can
result in poorly fused prints. In some cases, customers might
need to set copy quality to a lower density level. The DFE/RIP
color calibration procedure should be performed regularly for
color intense print jobs.
If using a coated paper that has not been recommended, first try a
small quantity to test its performance, then consult your local Xerox
representative for agreement on its use.
