MICR printing features

The DocuPrint 100/115/135/155/180 MX systems produce a

Magnetic Ink Character Recognition (MICR) line on negotiable

and turnaround documents such as checks and bills. The MICR

printing system prints documents using magnetic ink and special

fonts to create machine readable information that allows for quick

document processing.

1-6 Installation Planning Guide

Product overview

In general, MICR is used to print accounting and routing

information on blank checks and other negotiable documents. The

magnetic encoding capabilities can be used for any printed output.

The following illustrates a check printed with a MICR line in U.S.

format. The entire MICR line, which consists of numbers and

characters (called symbols), is printed using magnetic ink.

Figure 1-2 Example of a check printed with MICR line (U. S.)

The DocuPrint 100/115/135/155/180 MX systems meet ABA

standards and ANSI and ISO specifications for automatic check

handling. They print the variable data and the MICR line at the

same time. This single-pass printing capability reduces processing

time and costs.

MICR fonts

Xerox provides a set of 300 and 600 dpi E13B and CMC7 MICR

fonts for use with your DocuPrint 100/115/135/155/180 MX

system. To receive the high print quality guaranteed by Xerox, you

must use these MICR fonts.

CMC7 fonts have been adopted in various countries outside of the

U.S., and are the official standard in France. Like the E13B font,

they are magnetically readable, but with a different character

design and recognition criteria. (Currently, CMC7 is available only

through Xerox Europe.)

MICR fonts The MICR fonts include the following.

2 Controller components and

options

This chapter describes the components and options available for

the Xerox DocuPrint 100/115/135/155/180 EPS controller.

Controller overview

The controller receives data from a mainframe host or a

workstation client, processes the data, and sends it to the printer.

The controller also provides the printer with print data and

commands, and receives status information from the printer.

The controller consists of a high performance Sun workstation

processor running Solaris software. Also resident on the controller

is the DocuSP software, which manages all printing, diagnostic,

and administrative functions on the printing system.

The DocuSP software includes a full color graphical user interface

(GUI). Using the GUI, you set up and configure the system, set up

and implement system options, and manage print jobs.

DocuSP remote access

(Remote Workflow) Remote Workflow, a remote graphical user interface, is available

for installation from a CD. The remote GUI allows you to manage

your DocuSP-based printers from a single PC or Sun workstation.

You may set your preferences from the remote client to disable or

enable some or all connections.

Remote Workflow allows you to configure the printers that you

want to manage, and provides real time status of the printers. You

may switch between the printers that you are managing, but you

can display only one printer GUI at a time.

The Remote Workflow GUI looks and functions the same as the

local DocuSP GUI on the controller.

Controller components

The controller consists of a specially-configured Sun workstation

and uses proprietary Xerox hardware, firmware, and software.

Your controller has one of two possible configurations, described

in the following sections.

NOTE: Controller hardware configurations are subject to change,

to keep up with technology advances.

Space planning guidelines

When determining your space requirements and planning for

shared space between your printers, it is important to consider all

of the components you plan to install.

To ensure all of the space requirements are met, it is important to

work with your Xerox representative.

Before installation, you must consider the following:

• Clearance space requirements where you intend to install the

printer

• Recommended cable lengths and locations (refer to the

“System connections” chapter of this guide for more

information)

• Delivery access requirements

Installation Planning Guide 6-15

Printer requirements and specifications

• Floor leveling

Clearance space requirements

The printer must be installed in a fixed location that provides the

following clearance space:

• 36 inches / 91.4 cm on all sides of each component

• 78 inches / 198 cm of vertical clearance throughout the entire

area

• 24 inches / 61 cm of exclusive operator area in front of each

component

NOTE: There must be a total of 50 inches / 126.9 cm of clearance

space in front of the printer.

Shared space between components

It is best to provide the full amount of clearance space around the

hardware components. Your environment may require you to use

shared space between components such as between the printer

and the controller or between the printer and another Xerox

printing system. You can share the 36-inch / 91.4 cm clearance

space around each component, as long as you follow these rules:

• Space may be shared only with other Xerox equipment.

• Components may share the 36-inch / 91.4 cm general service

clearance areas, but they may not share the 24-inch / 61 cm

operator area in front of each component.

• There must be 78 inches / 198 cm of vertical clearance

throughout the entire area.

NOTE: Finishers that are attached to your bypass transport may

occupy shared space with Xerox equipment. However, they must

be removable to allow servicing of the printer feeders and

stackers. Consult with your Xerox representative to ensure all the

requirements are met.

Shared space configuration diagrams

The following figures illustrate three possible configurations of

shared space.

Back-to-back

shared space The figure below illustrates the two printers placed in a back-to-

back position. This allows the printers to share the entire 36

inches /

91.4 cm of general service space.

6-16 Installation Planning Guide

Printer requirements and specifications

Figure 6-11 Back-to-back shared service area space

2. Printer

Face-to-face

shared space The following figure shows the two printers facing each other. The

printers share 26 inches / 30.5 cm of the general service space,

but not the exclusive operator area in front of each printer.

Therefore, the printers should be separated by 24 inches / 61 cm,

plus 24 inches / 61 cm, plus 26 inches / 30.5 cm. This allows for

the entire operator space for each printer, plus the shared general

service area of 26 inches / 30.5 cm.

Face-to-face

shared space The following figure shows the two printers arranged with one

facing the back of the other. Between them is 60 inches / 152.4 cm

of space. This allows for 24 inches / 61 cm of operator space in

front of the printer facing toward the other, plus 36 inches / 91.4

cm of service space behind the printer facing away from the other.

Floor leveling

For proper operation, the printer must be perfectly level. On floors

less than two degrees out of level, installation personnel use a

leveling kit to level the machine.

NOTE: The printer will not function properly on floors more than

two degrees out of level.

If the floor is more than two degrees out of level, find another

location for the printer.

Installation Planning Guide 6-19

Printer requirements and specifications

For your reference, two degrees represents a height discrepancy

of approximately 3.8 inches / 9.6 cm measured at the casters with

the printer tilting from left to right, or approximately 0.7 inches / 1.8

cm with the printer tilting from back to front.

If you move the printer after its initial installation, it is your

responsibility to make sure that the printer can be leveled properly.

If you do not have the leveling kit (the printer in its initial location

did not require it), and you need one to level the printer in a new

location, contact your Xerox site representative to

obtain one.

Delivery access requirements

It is easy to overlook the path required to move the equipment

from the truck to the operation site. To determine access, ask the

following questions:

• Does the equipment need to go up or down a stairwell? How

wide is the stairwell?

• Do you have an elevator, if the equipment is to be located

above or below the first floor?

• Is the elevator large enough for the equipment?

• How wide are the hallways and doorways?

• Do you have a loading dock or a specific door to which the

equipment should be delivered?

You need to review these issues before or during the site

inspection conducted by your service representative.

The equipment dimensions are specified earlier in this chapter, so

it is easy to determine whether your hallways and doorways are

wide enough to permit access.

Turning radius

You must also consider the width of the passageway when the

equipment must negotiate a corner, whether into a room, an

elevator, or another passageway.

There are L-shaped turns and T-shaped turns. The diagrams and

the tables that follow show the minimum space required to

maneuver through the turns.

Using the turning

radius tables To use the tables:

1. Measure the minimum width of the passage or doorway you

need to use. This is Passage 1.

2. Find that number (or the next higher number) in the turning

radius table and read across to the corresponding minimum

value for Passage 2, depending on the type of turn the

equipment must negotiate.

Turning radius for

printer with

separated

components

The printing system is delivered with the printer, inverter feeder/

stacker, and each feeder/stacker as separate modules. If

necessary, the printer can be separated into two pieces for ease in

moving. The larger of the two parts contains the xerographic

system; the smaller of the parts (the paper handling module, or

PHM) contains paper trays 1 and 2. Do not confuse these two

parts of the printer with the inverter and feeder/stacker modules,

which have their own turning requirements.

There are a number of factors to keep in mind when planning your

site, including the following:

• Clearance space requirements

• Cable length

Refer to these sections in this manual when considering the

various factors involved in planning the appropriate location for

your printing system.

When determining your space requirements, remember to

consider all of the components you plan to have installed. If you

have a bypass transport or input enablement device option on

your printing system, you should contact the sales representatives

for the company from which you purchased your finishers and

feeders, as well as your Xerox representative, to ensure that all of

your space requirements are met.

7 System connections

This chapter provides cable requirements for your Xerox

DocuPrint 100/115/135/155/180 EPS. It also provides information

about channel-attaching your printer. To ensure all of your cable

requirements are met, work with your Xerox representative.

Cable lengths

Cable lengths are important considerations in planning your

layout, as components can be separated only up to the length of

the data interface cables that connect them.

Cables supplied with the printer are long enough to meet the

needs of most installations. Some of these cables are specific

lengths to conform to engineering and safety standards.

Interface cable The printer and controller can be separated up to the length of the

interface cables that connect them. The printer and controller are

connected by a 20 foot / 6.1 meter cable, or an optional 50 foot /

15.2 meter cable.

Power cables The printing system power cable lengths are as follows:

Table 7-1 Power cable lengths

WARNING: Using an inappropriate alternate cable may degrade

the performance of your equipment and may also be hazardous.

NOTE: Cable length loss must be factored in if equipment is

installed in a raised-floor environment. You should also consider

that part of the length of a cable is routed inside the equipment to

connect with interior power or data receptacles.

Cable locations

To run the cables beneath the flooring, you must know where the

cables enter and exit the printer. The following diagrams shows

that location marked with an X.

Power cable Length

Controller 8 feet / 2.4 m

Printer 15 feet / 4.5 m

2. Printer with feeder/stacker modules

3. Front of printer area

All power cords attach to the back of the printer. Power cord

distances from the left end of the printer (as you face it) are:

•DP 100, 115, and 135–distance from end of printer:

• 14 inches / 356 mm

•DP 155 and 180–distance from end of printer:

–Cord 1: 36 inches / 914 mm (with ELCI)

–Cord 2: 23 inches / 584 mm (with ELCI)

Channel attachments

The Xerox DocuPrint 100/115/135/155/180 EPS conforms to IBM

standards and requirements for any channel-attached printer.

When you channel-attach your printing system, keep the following

in mind:

• Channel length is usually determined by the length of the

cables, the number of devices on the channel, and the number

of connections in the cable itself (for example, connecting two

cables to each other).

• Subtract 15 feet / 3.8 m from the total allowable cable length

for any device attached to the channel or for any connection of

two cables.

• IBM channel cable lengths are as follows:

– Gray: 200 feet / 61 m (with one device, 185 feet / 56 m)

– Blue: 400 feet / 122 m (with one device, 385 feet / 117 m)

8 Installation

This chapter describes the activities performed by you and Xerox

personnel during the installation of the Xerox DocuPrint 100/115/

135/155/180 EPS hardware and software components. Before

installation can begin, you must complete the tasks described in

the “Preparing for installation” chapter of this guide.

Installation process

Xerox personnel are responsible for the physical installation of the

printing system hardware components and the software.

NOTE: For customers outside the United States, contact your

local Xerox operating company for your specific installation

process.

The installation process can take one or several days to complete.

Equipment, software kits, and documentation kits may arrive in

one day, or over the course of several days. When all of the

necessary items are in place, Xerox personnel will complete the

installation of the printer components.

In the United States, the steps in the installation process typically

occur in the following order:

1. Xerox personnel install all printer hardware and connects the

controller to your site’s network through the Ethernet

connector you supply. This process takes approximately four

hours if all the necessary network and electrical connectors

are in place.

2. Xerox personnel load software on the controller

(approximately 1.5 hours).

3. Xerox personnel download Xerox client software, if applicable,

on one client workstation to validate the installation (15

minutes). Software is downloaded on another client

workstation as part of training conducted by your systems

analyst. All other client software installations are your

responsibility.

Installation

Your responsibilities

Xerox personnel are responsible for the physical installation of the

printer components and for loading the software and applications.

You have the general site responsibility of ensuring that the right

personnel, supplies, and network information are available.

At the time of installation, you should do the following:

• Make sure that your system administrator is available during

the loading of software.

• For software loading purposes, be prepared to provide Xerox

personnel with network information from the preinstallation

worksheets. Refer to the Getting Ready for Installation manual

for specifics regarding network information.

• Designate two client workstations for downloading Xerox client

software if applicable: one for initial system validation and

another for use in operator training provided by your systems

analyst.

• If your system will be connected to an IBM host through a

channel, provide the host channel address, channel unit

address, and data transfer mode.

• If your system will be connected to an IBM host through

Socket TCP/IP, provide the host IP address and port number.

• Check the documentation and software kits with their packing

lists for completeness.

• Load Xerox client software on any additional client

workstations.

Remember that you are responsible for supplying, installing,

and maintaining your client workstations and the Ethernet local

area network (LAN) that connects them with the printing

system.

• Have test jobs ready to run.

• Have your operators available for training.

Refer to the installation planning checklist in the “Preparing for

installation” chapter of this guide for a complete list of

responsibilities.

Defining the printer to the host

Prior to installation of the printing system, your host system must

be configured to communicate with the Xerox DocuPrint 100/115/

135/155/180 EPS. This requires defining several parameters to

your host. The required information and configuration procedures

differ according to your connectivity type (channel or TCP/IP), and

Installation Planning Guide 8-3

Installation

your host environment. You will need to provide these parameters

to your Xerox representative on installation day.

Software licensing

When you purchase a Xerox DocuPrint 100/115/135/155/180

EPS, you receive a license to use the operating system software.

This license is enabled by entering a 20-character alphanumeric

string at the controller. Your Xerox or service representative

obtains this license string for you and enters it when your printing

system is installed.

Ongoing maintenance

After the installation of your printing system, there are a few

ongoing tasks that must be performed. These tasks may include

the following:

• Maintaining an adequate inventory of consumable supplies

• Overseeing routine maintenance and meter reporting

• Arranging for additional operator training

• Ordering additional fonts

• Ordering additional documentation

• Placing service calls for hardware problems

• Obtaining assistance in solving software-related problems

As installation coordinator, it is your responsibility to designate the

staff members responsible for these tasks.

Routine maintenance

A number of routine maintenance tasks must be performed to

ensure maximum efficiency of your printer. These tasks include:

• Adding standard dry ink to your printer

• Adding fuser agent

• Replacing the dry ink waste container

• Cleaning sensors in the printer

• Cleaning the exterior surfaces of the system

Step-by-step instructions on performing these routine

maintenance tasks are contained in the Operator Guide. You need

to decide how many operators will be responsible for performing

these maintenance tasks. Most maintenance procedures are

8-4 Installation Planning Guide

Installation

covered in the initial operator training provided shortly after

installation.

Meter reading and reporting

As print jobs are processed, the printing system accumulates,

saves, and maintains usage data.

During the last five working days of each month, you need to

review and transmit the data to Xerox for billing purposes. Refer to

your DocuPrint 100/115/135/155/180 EPS Operator Guide for

complete instructions on how to report meter readings.

Installation Planning Guide A-1

A Supplies

This appendix provides information and specifications for media

used with your Xerox DocuPrint 100/115/135/155/180 EPS

printer. Instructions for ordering supplies are also provided.

Consumable supplies (those that are depleted during operation of

the system), such as paper, dry ink, developer, fuser agent, etc.,

must be ordered for your printer. It is important that an adequate

supply of these items be on hand for installation, and that your

supply be maintained afterwards.

Paper and other throughput stocks

The success of any print run is greatly dependent on the proper

selection, care, and handling of the stock used.

Selecting paper

Select your paper carefully. If you do not use the proper paper,

you increase the probability of paper jams and misfeeds. The

stocks you use must meet the specifications set forth by Xerox for

operability in the printer. For additional information about paper

specifications, refer to Helpful Facts about Paper, delivered with

your printer.

Acceptable paper

stocks and sizes The printer accepts the following standard size cut-sheet papers:

• 7 by 10 inches / 178 by 254 mm (with 7-inch kit option)

• B5: 7.17 by 10.12 inches / 182 by 257 mm (with 7-inch option)

• US Letter: 8.5 by 11 inches / 216 by 279 mm

• US Legal: 8.5 by 14 inches / 216 by 356 mm

• A4: 8.27 by 11.69 inches / 210 by 297 mm

• B4 (European): 9.84 by 13.89 inches / 250 by 353 mm

• JIS B4 (Japanese): 10.12 by 14.33 inches / 257 by 364 mm

• US Ledger/US Tabloid: 11 by 17 inches / 279 by 432 mm

• A3: 11.69 by 16.54 inches / 297 by 420 mm

Recommended

weight and grade Use a good quality, xerographic-grade paper. For best results,

use paper that is 20-pound or 80 gsm (grams per square meter)

bond, xerographic grade. Xerox 4024 Dual Purpose Paper

provides optimal performance in the printer. (Refer to the

consumable supplies table later in this appendix.)

A-2 Installation Planning Guide

Supplies

Use paper within these parameters:

• Lightest: 16-pound (65 gsm) bond

• Heaviest: 110-pound (200 gsm) index

Characteristics The paper stock should have the following characteristics:

• Low moisture content (a paper-to-moisture ratio below 5.7

percent). Paper with higher moisture content may curl and

jam.

• Smooth surface

• Moisture-resistant wrapping

• No defects (bent edges, uneven surfaces)

• Grain long (parallel with the long side of paper)

Paper is usually fed into the printer with the long side as the

leading edge (except 11 by 17-inch or A3 paper). When you

purchase paper, buy long-grain paper. Make sure the grain is

parallel with the long side (long-grain) for the most reliable

feeding and stacking.

Special stocks Following are some guidelines for choosing and using special

materials:

Guidelines for

choosing and using

special materials:

•Labels: Must be the type designed for high-speed printers

and must meet the specifications described in the section

above. Loading instructions are printed on all paper trays.

Use only the processor feeding trays (trays 1 and 2) for labels.

Load labels in the tray with the label side up.

You can direct printed labels to any output tray. Be sure the

printed labels are stacked face up in the output tray, to avoid

ink offsetting and jams due to delamination.

•Transparencies: Must be the type designed for high-speed

printers and must meet the specifications described in the

section above. Loading instructions are printed on all paper

trays.

Load transparencies with the opaque strip to the right. All

printed transparencies are delivered to the sample tray.

As long as they meet your printer’s paper specifications, you

can also use:

•Tinted paper: Available in a variety of colors, it has many

uses, including calling attention to certain printed material,

separating special sections, or dividing chapters of a report.

•Preprinted paper: May be letterhead, forms, or logos.

•Predrilled paper: Has a varying number of holes for use in

binders or binder rings. Before loading predrilled paper, fan it

to remove loose plugs that could cause paper jams. Load

predrilled paper in the printer with holes to the right.

•Perforated paper

•Pre-cut or full tabs

Installation Planning Guide A-3

Supplies

•Carbonless paper

NOTE: The printer can print on precollated or ordered stocks,

including ordered tabs. However, jam recovery is not supported

with these stocks.

Paper sizing and print speed

The printer paper trays have edge guide sensors that detect paper

length and width. The system selects correct paper trays for the

print job based on the paper size specified in the job, as follows:

• If an exact match is found, the print job continues.

• If an exact match is not found, the programmer can specify in

the job for the printer to either:

– Stop printing the job and print an error sheet

– Print the data on an oversized sheet.

If you encounter any problems related to paper sizing, contact

your lead operator, systems specialist, or service representative.

Paper width and throughput speed (LCDS printing only)

The width of the paper you use for your LCDS print job is directly

related to the rate at which the printer can print the job. The rate at

which a job prints is called the “throughput speed” and is

measured in pages per minute (ppm).

NOTE: “Pages per minute” actually means “impressions per

minute,” referring to one side of a printed sheet.

A pitch is the amount time the printer takes to image a page on the

photoreceptor belt. The term “pitch mode” refers to the number of

pitches that can occur during one complete photoreceptor

revolution. The pitch mode in which a specific job prints is based

on the paper size used for that job.

The following tables list the pitch mode boundary values, paper

widths, and related printing speeds for the system. Notice that the

shorter the paper width, the higher the pitch mode and the faster

the throughput speed (higher page per minute rate).

Installation Planning Guide A-5

Supplies

Each time a job requires a different paper size that changes

across a pitch boundary, the system performs a time-consuming

xerographic quality adjustment. When the printing speed of an

LCDS job appears to degrade due to the use of mixed stock sizes,

you may be able to improve the speed by using the LCDS

OUTPUT command TMODE parameter in the JSL to run the print

job in a lower pitch mode. Refer to the OUTPUT TMODE

parameter in Using LCDS Print Description Language for

information on using this LCDS command.

Similarly, if the system cycles down frequently because your

external finishing equipment has a slower throughput rate than the

printing system, you can use the TMODE parameter of the LCDS

OUTPUT command to lower the pitch mode to match the speed of

the finishing equipment. This can improve overall throughput by

avoiding time-consuming cycle downs.

NOTE: “Pages per minute” actually means “impressions per

minute,” referring to one side of a printed sheet.

Paper size and pitch mode minimum and maximum

The illustrations in this section show the pitch modes in which you

can operate with the smallest and largest size papers supported

by the printing system.

Using small paper

sizes in 8 pitch

mode

Printing in 8 pitch mode provides the highest throughput speed

available —up to 154 ppm for the DP135 printer and up to 206

ppm for the DP180 printer. (The DP100 printer does not support 8-

pitch mode.) However, you should keep the following in mind

when you select the paper you want to use for this mode:

• Paper sizes smaller than 8 inches / 203 mm in width are

supported only when the optional 7 inch Paper Kit is installed

on the printer.

• The leading edge of any paper used in the printer cannot be

less than 10 inches / 254 mm long.

The following figure illustrates the maximum and minimum paper

sizes supported in 8 pitch mode.

sizes in 3 pitch

mode

Large paper sizes with widths of 15.31 to 17 inches / 389 to 432

mm are supported only in 3 pitch mode and must feed short edge

first. These paper sizes slow down the throughput speed.

Therefore, a short edge feed job takes longer to print than a long

edge feed job.

NOTE: The system can support 14 by 17 inch / 356 by 432 mm,

20 pound or 80 gsm paper stock in 3 pitch mode. However,

printing performance is not guaranteed for all types of paper of this

size. Heavy (110 pound / 200 gsm) and light (16 pound / 60 gsm)

weight papers can cause jams throughout the system, and are not

recommended.

Paper care

Once you have purchased your paper, you must be sure it is

stored and conditioned properly, so that it performs optimally in

the printer with a minimum of jams.

Storing paper Paper has a tendency to curl under the heat that is present inside

xerographic equipment. To minimize the amount of curling, use

paper with low moisture content. Paper with excessive moisture

content has a tendency to jam because of the greater curl. The

maximum recommended moisture content is 5.7 percent.

Keep these points in mind when preparing your paper storage

area:

• Store paper in its own wrapper; do not leave it unwrapped or

where it can be damaged by dampness or heat.

• Store paper on a flat surface and not on its side or edge.

• Store reams of paper in a closed cabinet.

• Always store paper in a cool, dry area. Store on pallets or

shelves, not on the floor.

• Plan ahead and keep at least a day’s supply of paper in the

Conditioning paper Because temperature and humidity affect paper performance in

the printer, you need to condition paper before using it. To do this,

store paper for a specified length of time in the same type of

environment as your printer.

The length of time you should condition your paper depends on

the amount of paper and the difference between the storage and

operating temperatures.

NOTE: The numbers in the top two rows indicate the temperature

difference between the storage area and the operating

environment, not actual room temperatures.

Use the following chart to determine the length of time needed to

condition stacked cartons of paper.

Example: (See the shaded rows in the table above.) If you want to

move ten cartons of paper from a storage area with a temperature

of 90 oF to an operating area with a temperature of 75 oF (a 15o

difference), you should do so at least 14 hours before using the

paper.

Dry ink

Dry ink (also called toner) is the black powder that forms the

image on the printed page. There are three cartridges of dry ink in

each carton. You should keep at least one extra cartridge on hand

at all times. The disposable cartridges are easily changed with no

mess. The consumption rate of Xerox dry ink is approximately one

cartridge per 60,000 pages. Use only dry ink that is specified for

use in the printer, as described in the consumable supplies table.

MICR dry ink MICR dry ink is the magnetic black powder which forms the image

on the printed MICR document. There are three cartridges of

MICR dry ink in each carton. The consumption rate of Xerox MICR

dry ink is approximately one cartridge per 60,000 pages. Use only

MICR dry ink in your MICR printer.

The dry ink that is used with the DP 100/115/135/155/180 MICR

EPS is designed for MICR printing and does not function well

when used in non-MICR systems. The same procedure used for

non-MICR printing systems is used to add the dry ink to the 96/

4635/180 MICR printer.

NOTE: Dry ink (toner) yields are based on 7% area coverage.

Your yield may vary, depending on coverage.

CAUTION: Use only MICR dry ink in the DP 100/115/135/155/

180 MICR EPS printers. Do not use standard dry ink. MICR dry

ink cannot be reused.

Fuser agent

Fuser agent (the lubricant for the printer fuser) is a consumable

item required by the printer. The consumption rate of Xerox fuser

agent is approximately one bottle per 250,000 pages. For product

information, refer to the consumable supplies table in this

appendix.

US only: You should keep at least two boxes (each box contains

one bottle) on hand for installation by the service representative.

Developer

Developer is not consumed by the printer but does have an

effective life of approximately 1,000,000 pages per carton

(600,000 per carton for MICR developer). Both kinds of developer

are guaranteed by Xerox for 600,000 pages per carton. Developer

is a required item and must be kept on hand.

Use only the developer specified for use in your printer.

Installation Planning Guide A-13

Supplies

CAUTION: The DP 100/115/135/155/180 MICR EPS printers

require a different developer, with a different part number, from

the developer used in the standard DP EPS printer. Be sure you

use only designated MICR developer in the MICR printers.

The developer is changed by your service representative. For

product information, refer to the consumable supplies table in this

appendix.

Diskettes

Diskettes are optional items that provide loading and backup of

fonts, forms, and user files to and from the printing system. The

processor accepts 3.5-inch, 1.44 MB, double-sided, high density

diskettes.

Cartridge tapes

The quarter-inch cartridge (QIC) tape drive uses 150 MB and 8GB

cartridge tapes.

Stacker containers and pallets (optional)

Stacker containers can be placed inside the stacker bins to

receive and neatly stack large amounts of output. These optional

containers are available in a variety of sizes, accommodating

various standard U. S. and international paper sizes. Different

sized pallets for containerless stacking can also be ordered.

Fonts

Data can be printed on DocuPrint printers in many sizes and type

styles called fonts. A font is a character set which has unique

characteristics, such as type style, size, weight, orientation

(portrait, landscape, inverse portrait, and inverse landscape),

character spacing (fixed and proportional), line spacing, and

postures (Roman, italic, and so forth).

There are three classifications of fonts:

• Standard fonts

• Licensed fonts

• Custom fonts

Standard fonts For PostScript printing, a library of PostScript fonts is provided

with your printer’s operating system software.

A-14 Installation Planning Guide

Supplies

For LCDS printing, over 250 standard 300 dpi fonts, referred to as

the AR03 font family is provided with your printer’s operating

Licensed fonts Additional fonts may be ordered from your local Xerox Font

Center.

Custom fonts Custom fonts and graphic images such as company logos and

signatures can be digitized by the Xerox Font Center for use on

your printer.

Receiving fonts Fonts can be received on a diskette, various tape formats, or CD-

ROM from your local Xerox Font Center.

LCDS fonts may also be sent to your system from an online host

computer through an IBM-compatible channel.

A-20 Installation Planning Guide

Supplies

Ordering supplies

To avoid unnecessary downtime, always have an adequate

amount of the necessary supplies. To do this, you need to

establish a procedure for checking and ordering supplies. A

supplies checklist is provided at the end of this chapter to help you

with this task. It lists the supplies needed for the printer and

contains a column for you to enter the date when you want to

place the order and a column to record the date of the actual

order. The preceding consumable supplies table contains a list of

Xerox supplies available for the printer.

It is important that you check your supplies regularly and order

before you run out. Plan on approximately five working days for

delivery after placing the order. You can make arrangements to

receive them sooner in emergency situations.

Your Xerox sales representative can help you submit the initial

order of supplies needed for installation. These items include

paper, dry ink, fuser agent, and developer.

Once printer volume is established, planning ahead and buying

Xerox supplies in quantity can save you money. The following
