Logical Printers Overview (6030/6050)
A logical printer (virtual printer) is a group of saved print job settings for a
particular data format, i.e., HP-GL, Versatec, TIFF, CALS, and PS/PDF. These
saved settings, which are created using Print Services on Web, may include pen
attributes, media type, print quantity, and the other parameters that define the
print job that the logical printer will be required to perform. Logical printers are to
printing as Stored Jobs are to copying, that is, both reduce setup time and
increase efficiency by using previously saved job settings. A maximum of one
hundred logical printers can be set up within one 6030/6050 Wide Format
Printer or Copier/Printer for each supported data format.
How Logical Printers are Named
Logical printer names are assigned based on the following. This naming
structure can not be changed.
1st to 3rd digits [PLT] or [plt] character strings
4th to 5th digits (number) Two-digit number from 00 to 99
6th digit (data format) Any of the following.
H: HP-GL format
V: Versatec format
T: TIFF format
C: CALS format
A: PS/PDF format (optional)
Refer to "Chapter 4 Logical Printer Setup and Operation (6030/6050 only)" to

Main Printing Functions
This section describes the main printing functions which are available with the
6030/6050 Wide Format Printer and Copier/Printer.
Logical Printers (6030/6050 only)
A logical (virtual) printer is a group of saved print job settings for a particular data
format, i.e., HP-GL, Versatec, TIFF, CALS, and PS/PDF. These saved settings,
which are created using Print Services on Web, may include pen attributes,
media type, print quantity, and the other parameters that define the print job that
the logical printer will be required to perform. Logical printers are to printing as
Stored Jobs are to copying, that is, both reduce setup time and increase
efficiency by using previously saved settings. A maximum of one hundred logical
printers can be set up within one 6030/6050 Wide Format Printer or Copier/
Printer for each supported data format.
Logical printer names are assigned based on the following. It is not possible to
change these names.
1st to 3rd digits [PLT] or [plt] character strings
4th to 5th digits (number) Two-digit number from 00 to 99
6th digit (format) Any of the following.
H: HP-GL format
V: Versatec format
T: TIFF format
C: CALS format
A: PS/PDF format (optional)
The sixth digit can be omitted when Ethernet multi-data format functions are in
use. When this digit is omitted, the relevant software to be started will be
selected according to the extension log of the transmitted data file.
If a logical printer is selected that has a different sixth digit than the format of the
print file, the file may be forwarded to a logical printer that has the same
extension as the transmitted file.

2.1 Overview of the 6030/6050/6050A Wide Format Printer
Document Size Input
The following two methods are available for judging the size of the input
document:
Automatic Calculates the coordinates of the input document and
automatically selects the closest size.
Size SpecificationEnables the user to manually select the media size of the
input image. The media size can be selected from standard
sizes and user-defined sizes.
The Automatic setting is used under normal circumstances. Specify the size
manually if restrictions are to be placed on the input coordinates. When the size
is specified, all areas that exceed that size will be cut off.
Media Size Output
The following two methods for judging the size of the output media are available:
Automatic When Automatic is selected, the print size is enlarged or
reduced automatically based on a size mapping table
(explained later). Also, the size of the media that is selected
is determined based on a media mapping table, or by
automatic mapping (explained later).
Size SpecificationWhen Size Specification is selected, the output media size is
specified manually. If the specified media size is different
from the input document size, the document will be enlarged
or reduced to match the size of the paper.
"Automatic" is used under normal circumstances. Specify the media size
manually if all output is to be printed on a single media size.
Refer to "3.8 System Parameter Setup (Print Services on Web, 6030/6050)"
for details on setting up the logical printer extensions.
Refer to "4.1 Creating a New Logical Printer" for help in setting up logical
printers.
Refer to the "Input Option" section of "4.3 Logical Printer Print Settings" for
details on available functions.
Refer to "4.3 Logical Printer Print Settings" for details on available functions.
40 Chapter 2 Printer Overview
Size Mapping
Size mapping is the process of setting up a table that establishes relationships
between input document sizes and output image sizes. When size mapping is
finished (must be done prior to printing), documents can be enlarged or reduced
automatically based on the table entries.
Media Mapping/Automatic Mapping
Media mapping is the process of setting up a table that establishes relationships
between output image sizes and media sizes. This process, like size mapping,
must be performed prior to printing. Once the media mapping table is finished,
the media size is determined by the entries in the media mapping table.
When Automatic Mapping is selected, the output media size that matches the
output image size will be selected.
Refer to " Size/Media Mapping" in "4.3 Logical Printer Print Settings" for more
details.
Check media mapping to be sure the media size selected matches the media
loaded in the printer. Refer to "4.3 Logical Printer Print Settings" for more details.

FreeFlow Accxes Web Print
Management Tool (6050A)
The Freeflow Accxes Web Print Managment Tool (Web Printer Management
Tool) is a web-based utility that resides on the controller as a web server. It has
the look and feel of a web page even though you are not on the World Wide
Web. There are multiple versions of Web Printer Management Tool that are
supported on FreeFlow Accxes controllers.
The address window uses the URL address, which is the IP Address of the
controller you want to access. A customer's workstation, connected to a
network, has access to any controller connected to the same network. It can be
used to monitor jobs and/or administer the printer's parameters or configuration.
The performance of the Web Print Management Tool, in terms of user wait time,
is determined primarily by:
Network bandwidth and speed
Amount of data being transmitted to or from the printers Controller
Network traffic
The Web Printer Management Tool provides the following services to users of
Xerox Wide Format Printers.

3Select the data format for the new logical printer from the [Data format]
menu.
The selections include [Versatec], [HP-GL], [TIFF], [CALS], and
optionally, [PS/PDF].
The logical printers are pre-configured in the factory to their default print
settings. These defaults, as well as the options you can select, are
defined in the upcoming section "4.2 Defining the Print Settings". When
you display a list of logical printers, as in step 4, the current print
settings will display.
To identify a logical printer whose factory defaults have not been
changed, look for one that displays only the factory defaults. As a clue
to identifying logical printers that have been set up for local use, check
the " Media Series" or" User-Defined Size" parameters. These
parameters are often customized to meet local needs.

Logical Printer Operations
This section explains the procedures for performing the following using Print
Services on Web.
Selecting the Media Type
Using Media Other Than the Default Series
Changing Output Roll Media for an Entire Job
Reduction and Enlargement Using Size Mapping
Printing Long Documents
Print Services on Web: Job and Log
166 Chapter 4 Logical Printer Setup and Operation (6030/6050 only)
Selecting the Media Type
The media type for the logical printers is set up using the [Media Type] selection.
The available selections include [Any], [Bond], [Vellum], and [Film].
[Any] typically is selected as the media type. Specify the media type manually if
the media is limited to a particular type. If a media other than the specified type
is loaded after this setting is made, a [No Paper] error will be triggered.
Refer to "4.3 Logical Printer Print Settings" for details.
167
4.4 Logical Printer Operations
Using Media Other Than the Default Series
The media size series is set up using the [Media series] selection. The available
selections include [ISO A series], [ISO B series], [SP. A series], [ARCH series],
[ANSI series], and [ARCH-30 series].
The [Input size], [Output size], and [Media size] parameters can be set up
individually for each media group.
[Input size] is the group used when judging the input size.
[Output size] is the group used when judging the output size.
[Media size] is the group used when deciding on the media that is to be used
for printing.
Be sure that the groups are set up correctly. For example, if ISO A series paper
is set for [Media size], but ANSI paper is loaded in the printer, the printer will be
unable to recognize the paper type and a [No Paper] error will be triggered.
Refer to the "Media Series" section of "4.3 Logical Printer Print Settings" for
details on available functions.
Refer to "9.1 Main Specifications (6030/6050)" for the 6030/6050 and "9.2
Main Specifications (6050A)" for the 6050A for details on the media sizes for
each media group.
168 Chapter 4 Logical Printer Setup and Operation (6030/6050 only)
Changing Output Roll Media for an Entire Job
By setting the [Output Option] [Size] selection to [AUTO], the output media is
determined by the settings in the logical printer's [Media mapping] table. If a
media mapping table is prepared for each job, the output roll media can be
changed for each job.
For example, if an A1 roll and an A2 roll are loaded in the machine, and the A2
roll is to be used for printing the A2 size (Job1) job, and the A1 roll media to be
used for printing (Job2), which is also in A2 size, the mapping table is set up as
follows.
In this example, (Job1) is specified to use logical printer [PLT01H], which will
output the job on the A2 roll media.
(Job2) is specified to use logical printer [PLT02H] and rotate the job 90 degrees
to print on the A1 roll media.

4.4 Logical Printer Operations
Reduction and Enlargement Using Size Mapping
Reduction and enlargement can be performed using the size mapping table. The
size mapping table establishes relationships between input image sizes and
output image sizes. It enables users to enlarge or reduce prints automatically.
The size mapping table is set up using the logical printer’s [Size/media mapping]
selection. [Auto scale] is set to [Enable] and [Media size] (on [Output Option]) is
set to automatic ([AUTO], [OTHER], [MIX], or [MIX2]).
If the size mapping table is set up as shown below, an image with an input size
of A3 will be enlarged to an A2 size (141.4%).
In addition, if the output media size is directly specified with [Output Option] and
[Auto scale] is set to [Enable], it is possible to enlarge or reduce the image so
that it matches the size of the output media when the input size and output size
are different.

Printing Long Documents
The media cut mode can be set to either the standard A0 format (1,189 mm), the
standard shape increased in length, or the synchronized cut.
This parameter is set up using the logical printer [Output Option] feature.
[AUTO] : The standard shape priority mode. If the length of the document
exceeds the standard size, the paper is cut to the standard shape
that has been increased in length.
[OTHER]: Synchronized cuts performed on all images.
[MIX] : If images that are smaller than the A0 size exceed the standard size,
the paper is cut to the standard size that has been increased in
length. Synchronized cuts are performed on all images that exceed
the A0 size.
[MIX2] : If images that are smaller than the A0 size exceed the standard size,
synchronized cuts are performed on all images.
Synchronized cutting is when the length of the print is cut to the non-
standard size that matches the length of the image.
All output is carried out on roll media when [OTHER] has been selected. Cut
sheet cannot be used.

Overview of the Ethernet Print Service
Use the ftp command or the lpr command to print from the Xerox 6030/6050
Wide Format when running on UNIX and the tftp command for the Xerox 6050A.
This section explains how to set up the ftp and lpr commands and their formats.
The file to be printed should be in a data format that the Xerox 6030/6050 Wide
Format supports. Sending a file with a data format that is not supported will
result in a print error.
Refer to "2.1 Overview of the 6030/6050/6050A Wide Format Printer" for
information on supported data formats.

6.2
Registering the Xerox 6030/6050 Wide
Format Printer System
To print from the Xerox 6030/6050 Wide Format printer system, the Xerox 6030/
6050 Wide Format printer system should be registered on the TCP/IP network.
Host System Registration
When the network information is managed by a name service such as NIS or
DNS, the IP address and host name must be registered there.
When a name service other than NIS and DNS is used, the IP address and host
name must be registered in the database used to transfer the file on the client
side.
SunOS 5.X
In the case of SunOS 5.X, register the IP address and host name of the Xerox
6030/6050 Wide Format printer in the [/etc/hosts] file that defines the printers
connected to the network.
In the example below, the Xerox 6030/6050 Wide Format printer system with the
host name [oklahoma] is registered in the [/etc/hosts] file with the IP address
[zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz], in a network consisting of the two workstations called
[cosmos] and [venus].

226 Chapter 6 Ethernet Print Service (for UNIX)
Registering the Remote Printer
For printing using the lpr command, both the host system and the remote printer
must be registered on the client workstation.
Although the registration information depends on the system, the logical device
names on the workstation must correspond with the logical printers on the Xerox
6030/6050 Wide Format printer system.
SunOS 5.X
For SunOS 5.X, register the remote printer using the lpadmin command.
Executing the lpadmin command
In the example below, the Xerox 6030/6050 Wide Format printer system with the
host name [oklahoma] is registered.
If the printer devices plt00h, plt01h, and plt02h are specified, they are sent to the
logical printers PLT00H, PLT01H, and PLT02H of [oklahoma].
In this example, the printer devices plt00h, plt01h, and plt02h are created new
and set up. The Xerox 6030/6050 Wide Format printer system has 100 logical
printers for each supported data format. Therefore, 100 entries can also be set
using the lpadmin command.
Refer to the "Main Printing Functions" section in "2.1 Overview of the 6030/
6050/6050A Wide Format Printer" for logical printer.
You need to have root user privileges to use the lpadmin command.
For details of the lpadmin command, see SunOS 5.X User Guide.
#lpadmin -p plt00h -s oklahoma!PLT00H
#lpadmin -p plt01h -s oklahoma!PLT01H
#lpadmin -p plt02h -s oklahoma!PLT02H
If csh is used, enter "\!" instead of "!" in the above to prevent the character "!"
and subsequent characters from being replaced by the command log.
You can register the remote printer using the admintool prepared by SunOS.
To register the remote printer, select the menu [Printer Manager] > [Edit] >
[Add Printer] > [Add Access to Remote Printer]. Specify a logical printer name
PLT00H in Printer Name, a host name 6050 WF in Printer Server, and BSD in
Print Server OS.
227
6.2 Registering the Xerox 6030/6050 Wide Format Printer System
AIX 3.2.X
For AIX 3.2.X, register the remote printer in the [/etc/qconfig] file defining the
printer- unique attributes.
Editing the /etc/qconfig file
In the example below, the Xerox 6030/6050 Wide Format printer system called
[oklahoma] is registered in the [/etc/qconfig] file.
With this setting, when you send a file to a printer device called [plt10h] or
[plt20h], the file is sent to [oklahoma].
Starting the Print Queue
After finishing the settings, start the print queue using the qadm command.
Setting the MAC frame format
The Ethernet supports two MAC frame formats [Ethernet V2.0] and [IEEE802.3],
but the Xerox 6030/6050 Wide Format printer system supports [Ethernet V2.0]
only. When setting the MAC frame format in the host computer, specify [Ethernet
V2.0].
For details on the respective operations and content, see "AIX 3.2.X User
Guide."

To print from the Xerox 6050A Wide Format printer system, the 6050A should be
registered on the TCP/IP network.
Host System Registration
When the network information is managed by a name service such as NIS or
DNS, the IP address and host name must be registered there.
When a name service other than NIS and DNS is used, the IP address and host
name must be registered in the database used to transfer the file on the client
side.
SunOS 5.X
In the case of SunOS 5.X, register the IP address and host name of the X6050A
in the [/etc/hosts] file that defines the printers connected to the network.
In the example below, the 6050A with the host name [oklahoma] is registered in
the [/etc/hosts] file with the IP address [zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz], in a network consisting

In the example below, the 6050A with the host name [oklahoma] is registered.
In contrast to the 6030/6050 with its plt00h, etc., the queue names for the 6050A
with the Accxes controller are always given the name of [raw].
In this example, the printer device [oklahoma] is created new and set up.The
queue [raw] will be used to accept jobs.
Refer to the "Main Printing Functions" section in "2.1 Overview of the 6030/
6050/6050A Wide Format Printer" for logical printer.
You need to have root user privileges to use the lpadmin command.
For details of the lpadmin command, see SunOS 5.X User Guide.
#lpadmin -p oklahoma -s oklahoma!raw
If csh is used, enter "\!" instead of "!" in the above to prevent the character "!"
and subsequent characters from being replaced by the command log.
You can register the remote printer using the admintool prepared by SunOS.
To register the remote printer, select the menu [Printer Manager] > [Edit] >
[Add Printer] > [Add Access to Remote Printer]. Specify a logical printer name
raw in Printer Name, a host name 6050 WF in Printer Server, and BSD in Print
Server OS.
230 Chapter 6 Ethernet Print Service (for UNIX)
AIX 3.2.X
For AIX 3.2.X, register the remote printer in the [/etc/qconfig] file defining the
printer- unique attributes.
Editing the /etc/qconfig file
In the example below, 6050A called [oklahoma] is registered in the [/etc/qconfig]
file.
With this setting, when you send a file to a printer device called raw, the file is
sent to [oklahoma].
Starting the Print Queue
After finishing the settings, start the print queue using the qadm command.
Setting the MAC frame format
The Ethernet supports two MAC frame formats [Ethernet V2.0] and [IEEE802.3],
but the Xerox 6030/6050 Wide Format printer system supports [Ethernet V2.0]
only. When setting the MAC frame format in the host computer, specify [Ethernet
V2.0].
For details on the respective operations and content, see "AIX 3.2.X User
Guide."

Printer Troubleshooting
This section provides recovery methods for problems which are associated with
printing.
Paper size #1 was mistakenly selected. (6030/6050 only)
ÖThere are cases where it is possible to override this with the [Media Margin]
settings.
The [Media Margin] settings are the values that set the top, bottom, left and right
margins in order for the machine to determine the input size. By setting the
margin values outside the scope of the paper, it is possible to reduce the input
judgment size.
No paper error occurs even when paper has been set in place. (6030/6050 only)
ÖThere is a chance that the paper actually set in place differs from the settings
made in either [Media Mapping], [Media Type] or [Media Series]. Check each of
these settings to ascertain they are correct.
TIFF data will not print properly. (6030/6050 only)
ÖCheck the compression format of the TIFF data. TIFF data compressed with the
LZW format is not supported by the 6030/6050 Wide Format and will not print.
If the image is printed but either in enlarged or reduced sizes, there are cases
where this can be overridden by making sure that resolution for the TIFF data is
correctly set in [TIFF Option].
Required lines will not print. (6030/6050 only)
Ö It may be possible to print the lines by changing the [White Mode] setting on the
[Color Option]. The [White Mode] setting determines whether the lines will be
drawn in white or in black when a [White Mode] instruction is received.
Faint lines that are assigned the color white may not print if the [White Mode] is
set to [Enable]. To resolve this problem, change the [White Mode] setting to

8.4 Printer Troubleshooting
Jams in the Feeder (Roll Media)
Media jams in the roll feeder(s) are caused by incorrect media loading methods
and defects in the media feeding mechanism. Reload the media according to the
following procedure.
Procedure
1Open the media tray.
2Rewind the media on the roll from which the
jam has occurred by rotating it toward you.
If the lead edge of the media is folded or
damaged in any way, cut it straight across
with the cutter or scissors.
3Rotate the roll until the lead edge is gripped
in the roller.
Avoid damaging the paper.
Refer to sections "1.11 Cutting
Roll Media" and " Cutting Roll
Media Manually" for instructions
on how to cut the lead edge of the
roll media.
262 Chapter 8 Problem Solving
4Rotate the knob until the lead edge of the
media can be seen in the window.
5Gently but firmly close the media tray until it
is as far back as it can go.
The LED on the front of the media tray will
illuminate, and the roll paper will be
automatically positioned.
6Lift the lock lever located in the middle at
the back of the scanner document table,
and then close the document table (6030/
6050 only).
Rotate the knob at the rear if the jam
occurred with the rear roll.

Jams in the Printer and Ejection Port
Remove media jams from the printer and ejection port following the instructions
below.
Procedure
1Lift up the lever located on the left-hand
side of the output unit.
2Use both hands to lift up the top of the unit.
3Check to determine if the green stopper is
located toward the back of the unit.
Push it to the back if it is located at the front.
The top of the unit cannot be lifted if
the scanner's lock has been released.
Lock the scanner before attempting
this procedure.
264 Chapter 8 Problem Solving
4Pull the jammed media slowly toward you to
remove it.
5Pull the green stopper to the front.
6Grasp the document table (6030/6050 only)
with both hands and gently but firmly lower
it into place.
Avoid damaging the media.
Do not touch any of the high-
temperature components in the
machine when removing paper
jams.
Ensure that the weight of the
document table is distributed equally
between both hands when lowering
it into place.
Take care to avoid getting your
fingers caught.

Media Specifications
For sharp image copying, use the media recommended by Xerox.
To prevent media jams or uneven printing, do not use creased, wrinkled, or
curled media.
When using unusually flexible media, support the media as it comes out of the
media ejection port so that it will not be pressed against the media table and
result in jams.
Moisture is not good for media. Place the media in a storage bag and store it
in a relatively dry place.
Vellum media, especially, should be put in a plastic or moisture-proof bag
that contains desiccant.
When the machine is not used for a long period, remove the media and store it
appropriately.
