Practical Tips for the: Xerox DocuPrint NC60 Color Laser Printer
Shared Printing
• Hold Job:
Hold Job is a "wait-for-me" feature that delays
printing, for a specified period of time, so you can load
special media, or be present when printing starts. Press the
machine' s enter button when the LED is flashing to print
your job. The amount of delay is set through the machine
control panel or client services tools.
• Secure Print:
Your NC60 printer allows you to defer
printing of a job until a matching Password is entered from
the Control Panel. The user assigns the Password in the
Password edit box after selecting Secure Print. This feature
requires the Hard Disk option be installed on your printer .
• Proof Print:
When printing multiple sets, Proof Printing
saves steps. You send your document once, and the printer
processes and prints the first set. After you review the
document, simply release the rest at the printer. This feature
requires the Hard Disk option be installed on your printer .
Recommended Media
Your DocuPrint NC60 will produce brilliant color images on a
wide variety of print media. Carefully choosing media for your
printer is important in achieving the best images and ensuring
trouble-free operation.
Paper:
Use standard office plain paper with weights from 16-24 lbs.
Best results will be achieved with "laser" class papers such as
Xerox Color Xpressions Paper. Avoid rough (graphic arts)
papers, card-stock, heavy papers, vellum, linen papers, T-shirt
transfer material, pre-printed forms, and letterhead with raised
printing. Envelopes and labels designed for laser printers must
be run through the manual feeder and will print in black and
whit only
Transparencies:
The NC60 automatically detects transparencies and adjusts the
printer to optimize print quality. To save money and produce
the brightest transparencies, we recommend using clear (laser
printer or copier) transparencies that do not have a removable
stripe or paper backing. Best results will be obtained by using
the low cost transparencies specifically designed for the
DocuPrint NC60: Xerox 3R6256. We do not recommend
transparencies designed for other types of color copiers or
color printers, laser or inkjet. For reliable feeding, load a
maximum of 75 transparencies in the paper tray. When
printing transparencies continuously, print 5-10 sheets of
blank pages after each set of 75 transparencies. This will
improve overall reliability and print quality when printing
large volumes of transparencies.

• Separator Sheets:
This convenient feature inserts a paper
separator between each transparency sheet. This feature
requires the Second tray feeder option be installed on your
printer.
Moving Your Printer
All color laser printers require extra care and preparation before
and while moving them. It is very important to remove the fuser
first, and hand carry it to the new location to prevent spilling oil
in the machine. Do not tilt the fuser. If the fuser has spilled
oil, do not reinstall as damage to the machine could occur.
Once the fuser is removed, two people should move the printer,
also taking care not to tilt the printer. If you must ship your
printer, and it will possibly NOT be kept level, more
preparation is needed. Complete moving instructions can be
obtained from the CD-ROM that accompanies your printer,
under Technical Information Guide (TIG), Chapter 12.
Alternately, contact your reseller, or the Xerox web site.
Monthly Print Volume
The DocuPrint NC60 is carefully designed to run reliably at
typical office print volumes of 3,000 color prints per month. If
you regularly produce considerably higher print volumes, you
should consider additional printer(s) to handle peak workloads
quickly, and maximize uptime.
Two-sided (Duplex) Printing
The DocuPrint NC60 is not designed for duplex printing.
Using paper that has already been printed on one side may
damage the printer.
Driver Configuration
Be sure to set the device options in the driver to correctly
reflect your printer configuration.
Connectivity
The NC60 comes standard with 10MB Ethernet on board with
the option to upgrade to 10/100MB Ethernet or TokenRing via
the optional NIC slot. If you experience connectivity problems
rd
when connecting a 3 party connectivity box to the printer
parallel port, you may have to set the printer parallel port bi-
directional setting to off.
