Factory

Settings

The printer is controlled by numerous settings whose values are pre-set at the factory. These values are called

factory settings

.

If the factory settings do not suit the needs of your printing environment, you can select a new setting in either of two ways:

•

•

Control Panel

on the printer. See

Chapter 3: Using the

Control Panel

.

Remote User Interface

on the host computer. Refer to the

Document Services for Printing Guide

.

❖



S h a r i n g t h e P r i n t e r

Sharing the

Printer

Particular care must be taken when changing settings for a printer being shared by users such as those on a local area network (LAN). When the printer is shared, settings must accommodate the

common

needs of users.

Considerations for a networked environment include the following:

• Downloading fonts and macros by individual users may consume printer memory. The sharing of downloaded fonts must be coordinated. See

Chapter 4: Using Fonts

,

“Downloading Fonts” (page 4-13)

.

• Switching between PCL and PostScript may purge downloaded data. See

Chapter 3: Using the Control

Panel

,

State Saving

(page 3-28) for PCL and

State Saving

(page 3-36) for PostScript.

• Changing settings for

Jam Recovery

,

Page Protection

,

State Saving

, or

Resolution

affect memory utilization. See

Chapter 3: Using the Control Panel

,

“Printer Settings that

Affect Memory” (page 3-67)

.

• The type of interface. (See page 3-37,

Appendix A

, and

Appendix C

.)

•

Auto Job End

should be page 3-53, page 3-56.)

On

. (See page 3-43, page 3-47,

•

Auto Continue

should be

On

. (See page 3-59.)

LANs generally require a system or network administrator, a person who orchestrates the use of the network. Refer to the installation guide packaged with your network option for more information.


❖

M e m o r y C o n s i d e r a t i o n s

Memory

Considerations

In today’s printing environments, technologies have advanced greatly but so have their corresponding memory requirements. To make use of specialized graphics features, fonts, and other applications on the market today, you may find it necessary to increase memory size.

From the factory, the 4505 and 4510 are equipped with 2 MB of resident base memory. The 4505ps and 4510ps are equipped with 2 MB of resident base memory plus one 4 MB

SIMM (single in-line memory module) for a total of 6 MB.

Maximum memory capacity is 16 MB.

• When is more memory needed?

— You receive out-of-memory error messages when printing.

See


,

“Printer

Settings that Affect Memory” (page 3-67)

for more information on how certain printer settings may affect memory usage and performance. See also

“Minimum

Memory Requirements” (page 3-69)

.

— You determine that expanded capability for additional fonts, more complex documents, graphics, or higher resolution is needed.

See

Chapter 4: Using Fonts

,

“Downloading Fonts”

(page 4-13)

for more information on how fonts affect memory usage.

• How is more memory added?

— Install a SIMM (single in-line memory module).

SIMMs are small circuit boards with memory chips that can be installed on the printer controller board.

See

Chapter 5: Adding Printer Options

for more information on SIMM installation.

S e l e c t i n g a P a p e r S o u r c e

Selecting a

Paper Source

For a print job, your software application sends information, called the Printer Command Language (PCL), to the printer to communicate paper source and page size. How the printer interprets the PCL command for paper source and page size depends on the printer menu settings for

Source Mapping

and

MP Tray Size

. If PCL commands for paper source and page size are not sent to the printer, the printer menu settings for

Paper Size

and

Default Source

are used. See


for further information on these and all PCL Menu settings (page 3-18).

PostScript functions differently than PCL. Refer to the

PostScript Installation Instructions for more information.

Note

PCL Paper Sources

Paper source

is a term that describes the tray, feeder, or slot from which the printer feeds paper.

PCL, and therefore your printer, recognizes the six paper sources shown in Figure 2.10, which may, or may not, appear in your software application.

Printing a Page

When a print job is received by the printer, the sequence to select the paper tray for each page is as follows:

1.

Page size is established.

If page size is not sent by the application, the PCL Menu setting called

Paper Size

is used.

2.

Paper source is established.

If a paper source is sent by the application, it will be one of the six PCL paper sources listed in

Figure 2.10

(page 2-22)

.

If paper source is not sent by the application, the PCL

Menu setting called

Default Source

is used. Some software applications have a paper source called “Auto

Select” or “Auto Sheet Feed.” When used, this results in a PCL paper source being omitted from the print job.

3.

When the printer is ready to print the page, tray sequence is established.

For the paper source chosen in the second step above, a tray or sequence of trays is taken from the PCL Menu

Source Mapping

setting for that source. For settings, see


.

4.

The printer searches in the tray or in any tray in the tray sequence for the correct page size from the first step above.

In a tray sequence, the trays are searched left to right as they appear in the

Source Mapping

setting. For example, for sequence “Std-Low-MP”, the standard tray is searched first, the lower tray second, and the MP tray third. The MP paper size is taken from the PCL Menu setting called

MP Tray Size

.

5.

If a tray with the correct paper size is found, the page is printed from that tray.

If no tray with the correct paper size is found, the tray sequence and paper size are displayed on the Control

Printing halts.

— Put paper of the requested size in a tray in the tray sequence and the page will be printed.

— Or, press

Enter

to print from the first tray in the tray sequence, regardless of paper size. If that tray becomes empty, the next tray with the same paper size will be used. This source and size will be used until the printer receives a new page containing a

PCL paper source, page size, or reset command.

Source Mapping

Settings

For each of the six PCL paper sources listed in

Figure 2.10

(page 2-22)

, a

Source Mapping

setting from Figure 2.11 is used. You may change settings depending on your printing needs. For details, see

Source Mapping

Examples

Example 1

Review the following

Source Mapping

examples to take full advantage of the 4505/4505ps and 4510/4510ps capabilities.

All examples assume that

Default Source

is set to

Standard

.

You do not have a lower base installed. You want to load as much paper in the printer as possible. You use only one size of paper. You do not do manual feeding.

1.

Load the standard and MP trays with regular paper stock.

2.

Set

Source Mapping

for “Standard” to “Standard-MP.”

3.

Set

MP Tray Size

to the same size as the regular stock.

4.

In either your software application or the Xerox printer driver, set paper source to the standard tray.

The printer will pull paper from the standard tray until it is empty, then from the MP tray. When the standard tray is reloaded, the printer will pull paper from it again.

Note

The Source Mapping setting determines from where the printer pulls paper.

For the paper sources you intend not to use, always set Source

Mapping to the same setting as that used for your regular paper stock. You will avoid unexpected results if those paper sources are used by mistake.

Note

The examples suggest using specific PCL paper sources but generally you may substitute any source to fit your printing needs.


❖

2-27



!

Caution

To avoid a paper jam, do not remove the standard or lower tray while the printer is feeding paper.

Example 2

You have a lower base installed. You want to load as much paper in the printer as possible. You use only one size of paper. You do not do manual feeding.

1.

Load the standard, lower, and MP trays with regular paper stock.

2.

Set

Source Mapping

for “Standard” to “Low-Std-MP.”

3.

Set

MP Tray Size

to the same size as the regular stock.

4.

In either your software application or the Xerox printer driver, set paper source to the standard tray.

The printer will pull paper from the lower tray until it is empty, then from the standard tray until it is empty, then from the MP tray. When either the lower or standard tray is reloaded, the printer will pull paper from it again.

2-28

❖




Example 3

You do not have a lower base installed. You want to print mostly on Letter (8.5 x 11) paper but sometimes on Legal

(8.5 x 14). You do not intend to do manual feeding.

1.

Load the standard tray with Letter paper stock.

2.

Load the MP tray with Legal paper stock.

3.

Set

Source Mapping

for “Standard” to “Standard.”

4.

Set

Source Mapping

for “Manual” to “MP Tray.”

5.

Set

MP Tray Size

to “Legal (8.5x14).”

6.

In either your software application or the Xerox printer driver, set paper source to:

— Standard tray for Letter pages.

— Manual (MP Tray) for Legal pages.

The printer will pull Letter paper from the standard tray. It will pull Legal paper from the MP tray.

Alternatively, you could set

Source Mapping

for “Standard” to “Standard-MP” and set your application paper source to the standard tray for both Letter and Legal size pages.

The printer will automatically switch between the trays according to the paper size requested

. The disadvantage is that Control Panel messages may be misleading. Whether alerting you to load Letter or Legal paper, the Control Panel will always display “Standard-MP” as the location to load that paper size. You must know which paper size goes into which tray.


❖

2-29



Example 4

You have a lower base installed. You also have the optional standard legal tray (page 2-10). You want to print mostly on

Letter (8.5 x 11) paper but sometimes on Legal (8.5 x 14). You intend to do manual feeding.

1.

Load the lower tray with Letter paper stock.

2.

Load the standard tray with Legal paper stock.

3.

Empty the MP tray.

4.

Set

Source Mapping


5.

Set

Source Mapping

6.

Set

7.

Set

Default Source

to “Lower” to take care of print jobs that do not contain a paper source selection.

8.


— Lower tray for Letter pages.

— Standard tray for Legal pages.

— Manual (MP Tray) for pages to be manually fed.

The printer will pull Letter pages from the lower tray. It will pull Legal pages from the standard tray. For each manual page, the printer halts and the Control Panel displays a message requesting the correct size paper to be manually placed in the MP tray. Place one page in the MP tray and it will feed if the requested paper size is the same size as

MP

Tray Size

. If it is not, you must press

Enter

Alternatively, you could set the Source Mapping for “Lower” to “Lower-Standard” and set your application paper source to the lower tray for both Letter and Legal pages.

The printer will automatically switch between the trays according to the paper size requested

. The only disadvantage is that Control

Panel messages may be misleading. Whether alerting you to load Letter or Legal paper, the Control Panel will always

Example 5

display “Lower-Standard” as the location to load that paper size. You must know which paper size goes into which tray.

You do not have a lower base installed. You want to print mostly on white A4 paper but sometimes on pre-printed A4 paper. You occasionally print on DL envelopes.

1.

Load the standard tray with white A4 paper stock.

2.

Load the MP tray with pre-preprinted A4 paper stock

(face down).

3.

Set

Source Mapping


4.

Set

Source Mapping

for “Manual” and “Manual

Envelope” to “MP Tray.”

5.

Set

MP Tray Size

to “A4 (210x297)”

6.


— Standard tray for white A4 pages.

— Manual (MP Tray) for pre-printed A4 pages.

— Manual (MP Tray) for DL envelopes. (You could have also set paper source to Manual Envelope for DL envelopes.)

The printer will pull white A4 paper from the standard tray. It will pull pre-printed A4 pages from the MP tray. For each DL envelope, the printer halts and the Control Panel displays a message requesting a DL envelope to be loaded in the MP tray. Remove the pre-printed paper and place one envelope in the MP tray. Press

Enter

to print.

Additionally, you might set

Source Mapping

for “Lower” and

“Large Capacity” sources to “MP Tray” so that you could select the lower tray or large capacity for pre-printed paper if more convenient.


❖

2-31



Example 6

You have a lower base (with either a universal tray or an A4 tray) installed, and you have a DL envelope tray—see


. You want to print mostly on white A4 paper but sometimes on DL envelopes. Occasionally, you print on color or pre-printed A4 paper.

1.

Load the lower tray with white A4 paper stock.

2.

Insert the DL envelope tray, filled with DL envelopes, in the standard paper source.

3.

Load the MP tray with color or pre-printed A4 paper stock

(face down).

4.

Set

Source Mapping

for “Standard” to “MP Tray.”

5.

Set

Source Mapping

for “Lower” to “Lower.”

6.

Set

Source Mapping

for “Manual” and “Manual

Envelope” to “Standard.”

7.

Set

MP Tray Size

to “A4 (210x297).”

8.

Set

Default Source

to “Lower” to cover print jobs that do not contain a paper source selection.

9.

In either your application or the Xerox printer driver, set paper source to:

— Lower tray for white A4 pages.

— Standard tray for color or pre-printed A4 pages.

— Manual for DL envelopes.

Because of the Source Mapping settings in steps 4-6, above, the printer will pull white A4 paper from the lower tray. It will pull DL envelopes from the standard tray. It will pull color or pre-printed A4 pages from the MP tray.

Make sure there is one sheet of A4 stationery in the MP tray each time you print this document.

2-32

❖




Example 7

You do not have a lower base installed. You want to use pre-printed stationery for the first page and regular stock for the other pages of your document. Your software application has the capability to ask for the first page of a document from a different source than the remainder of the document.

The

Xerox PCL 5e emulation Windows printer driver also has this capability

. It is assumed your pre-printed stationery is the same size as your regular stock.

1.

Load the standard tray with regular paper stock.

2.

Load the MP tray with pre-printed stationery (face down).

3.

Set

6.

In either your software application or the Xerox PCL 5e emulation Windows printer driver, set paper source for the first page to Lower and set paper source for the remaining pages to Standard.

The printer will pull the first page from the MP tray and all other pages from the standard tray.

Alternatively, you could substitute any paper source, except standard, for “Lower” in the fourth and sixth steps above.

Refer to the

Example 8

You do not have a lower base installed. You want to use pre-printed stationery for the first page and regular stock for the other pages of your document. Neither your software application nor your printer driver has the capability to ask for the first page of a document from a different source than the remainder of the document. It is assumed your pre-printed stationery is the same size as your regular stock.

1.

Load the standard tray with regular paper stock.

2.

Put one page of the pre-printed stationery in the MP tray

(face down).

3.

Set

Source Mapping

for “Standard” to “MP-Standard.”

4.

Set

MP Tray Size

Source mapping

enables you to control

from your software application

the location from which the printer pulls paper.

Each of the six paper sources that can be requested through your application maps to one of the

Source

Mapping

settings.

Standard

is the factory setting for the Standard,

Lower, and Large Capacity paper sources.

MP Tray

is the factory setting for Manual, Manual Envelope, and

Envelope Feeder. See


for factory settings with and without a lower base installed.

When a paper source (e.g., Standard) is mapped to a

sequence

of trays (e.g.,

Standard-MP

), the printer may switch between them for two purposes:

1) To increase paper capacity.

When the current tray becomes empty, the printer automatically switches to the next tray in the sequence, provided the paper size is the same.

2) To search for the correct paper size to print a page.

If the paper size specified in your software application does not match what is loaded in the current tray, the printer automatically searches the next tray in the sequence for a paper size that matches.

For more information on taking full advantage of

Source Mapping

PostScript is available as an option for the 4505 and 4510 printers. See Appendix D: Ordering Information.

Note

PostScript Users:

The Xerox Windows PostScript driver allows you to either download the PostScript header with every job, or download it only once. If the printer is used in a network or other shared environment, where both PCL and PostScript jobs are printed, the header will be deleted whenever the printer switches from PostScript to PCL. Banner sheets printed from Novell networks cause the printer to switch between PostScript and

PCL. If Banner Sheets are printed, insure that the printer’s

Language Sensing

option is

. To avoid the loss of the

PostScript header, select “Download Each Job” in the

PostScript driver. The “Already Downloaded” option may be selected in the driver if at least 10 MB of memory is installed in the printer and the printer’s

State Saving

option is set to

Sequence of trays the printer uses when printing a page of a PostScript print job.

If the tray requested for the page is included in this sequence, then the whole sequence is used instead of the requested tray. The first tray used is the one in the sequence, going from left to right, that satisfies all page requirements. If the requested tray is not included in this sequence, then the requested tray alone is used. For example, if this setting is

“Lower-Standard” and the standard tray (upper) is requested, then the lower tray will be used first provided that it contains the requested size of paper.

When this sequence is being used and the current tray runs out of paper, then the next tray in the sequence that has the same size paper will be used.

Settings that include the lower tray only appear in the menu when an optional lower base is installed.

Settings that begin with MP allow for printing of the first pages of a job on special stock by placing the required number of sheets of the special stock in the

MP tray.

The factory default is Low-Std-MP when a lower tray is installed, or Standard-MP when a lower tray is not installed.

(page 3-41) interval and no data has been received on any other port, the print job will be stopped. Any partial page is ejected from the printer and the print job is cleared from memory.

Use

Auto Job End

when the printer serves multiple users on a network. This assures that one user’s print job will finish and all pages will exit the printer whether or not another user sends a print job.

No partial pages will be left unprinted.

When

Certain

PCL Menu

and

options affect the printer’s performance and memory usage, as described in

“PCL Menu” (page 3-15)

and

“PostScript Menu” (page 3-29)

.

Figure 3.25 provides more detailed information on these options.

Figure 3.25 PCL and PostScript Menu options that affect printing speed and memory usage

Option Description

Page Protection

PCL Menu

(page 3-26)

When a page is particularly complex with graphics or dense text, the printer may not be able to process it rapidly enough to keep up with normal printing operations. Data may be lost or one page may be split on multiple pages.

Page protection

is a technique that reserves memory to ensure the entire page can be created and printed before the actual printing process. The trade-off in performance is matched by the certainty that an entire complex page may be printed.

Page Protection

is related to

Resolution

(page 3-27 for PCL, page 3-35 for PostScript, and page 3-68) since the amount of memory needed for a page depends on its resolution. The higher the resolution, the more memory needed. See


for memory requirements.

Your software application may change the

Page Protection

level (e.g., from

Legal

to

Letter

). When that occurs, the printer’s memory is reconfigured. Downloaded fonts and macros may be cleared from memory unless

State Saving

(page 3-28 for PCL, page 3-36 for PostScript, and page 3-68) is set.

If any request for memory cannot be satisfied, you will be notified on the

Control Panel.

If you frequently see the following error message

Page Too Complex you may want to set

Page Protection

to be able to print the entire page.

Otherwise, if you do not see frequent warning messages, set

Page

Protection

Off

.

A paper jam may cause a page image being printed to become lost. When

Jam Recovery

is

On

, the printer will automatically reprint the image of the jammed page, after the jam has been cleared.

Because the printer holds a page image in memory longer with

Jam

Recovery

, if a low memory condition occurs there can be a slight performance impact and the printer may require more memory. If sufficient memory exists,

Jam Recovery

has no impact.

The printer prints at 600 or 300 dpi. The factory setting is 600 dpi.

Your software application may be able to set

Resolution

and override the setting here. Whether a new

Resolution

is set by your application or on the Control Panel, the new

Resolution

becomes effective with the next print job or with a printer reset. Unless

State Saving

(page 3-28 for PCL, page 3-36 for PostScript, and page 3-68) is

On

, downloaded fonts and macros may be cleared from memory.

The higher the resolution, the more memory required. See

Figure 3.26

(page 3-69)

for memory requirements.

When

State Saving

is

Off

, fonts and printer macros permanently downloaded from your software application are cleared from memory when:

• The printer switches from one page description language (PDL) to another (such as from PostScript to PCL).

• A memory reconfiguration takes place (such as for a new

Page

Protection

or

Resolution

setting).

When

State Saving

is

On

, the printer reserves memory to retain the downloaded fonts and macros. Thus, the fonts and macros do not have to be downloaded to memory again when switching PDLs or reconfiguring memory.

You may set

State Saving

separately for the PCL and the PostScript environments.

The printer requires 10 MB of memory to enable State Saving when

PostScript is installed. If PostScript is not installed, State Saving may be enabled with 6 MB of memory.

Overview

A

font

is a collection of characters of one typeface, one weight, and one posture. An example is Courier New Italic. A font generally contains uppercase and lowercase alphabets, numbers, and special characters such as punctuation marks.

A

font family

is composed of one typeface in all its available weights and postures. Courier New, for example, has medium, italic, bold, and bold italic.

Bitmapped and

Scalable Fonts

Fonts are normally categorized according to the manner in which they are generated:

•

•

Bitmapped

font

A bitmapped font contains digitized images of each character in the font. Each symbol (that is, character, number, or punctuation mark) is a

complete image

in digitized form.

Each symbol is stored as a bitmap (or raster) that represents the black or white parts of the symbol. The bitmaps are copied onto the paper when printing takes place.

Scalable

font

A scalable font contains characters described by mathematical formulae that produce

character outlines

.

A mathematical formula describes a line between two points which constitutes one line of the character’s outline. The images printed on paper are digitized as the page is being printed. During digitization, the image may be scaled, sloped, or rotated.

There exists a variety of mathematical models used to construct scalable fonts, but the two most popular are

Bézier and B-spline.

Scalable fonts are also known as

contour

or

outline

fonts.


❖

O v e r v i e w

At one time, computers used bitmapped fonts only. One set of bitmapped fonts was needed to display characters on a terminal screen, and another set was needed for printing.

These were called

screen fonts

and

printer fonts

, respectively.

Today, software applications use many scalable fonts because they can be used for both screen and printer.

Where Fonts

Reside

Screen fonts

are always stored on the host computer, not the printer.

Printer fonts

may reside in three places:

•

Printer ROM

holds

resident

fonts, installed at the factory on memory chips on the printer controller board. See

“Fonts Resident on the Printer” (page 4-5)

for a complete list.

• A

font card

inserted into the printer holds additional PCL fonts. The 4505/4505ps and 4510/4510ps printers provide two slots for font cards. See

Chapter 1: Introduction

(page 1-3) for font card location.

•

Software applications

contain additional fonts that may be

downloaded

to printer memory, in some cases, for the entire time the printer is turned on. See

“Downloading

Fonts” (page 4-13)

Fonts

Resident on the Printer

The 4505/4505ps and 4510/4510ps printers are equipped with resident fonts installed at the factory on memory chips on the printer controller board.

Resident fonts are used by software applications that communicate with the printer in

PCL (Printer Command

Language)

. See

Appendix B: Printer Commands (Escape

Sequences)

for more information on all PCL commands.

Note

The 4505ps and 4510ps printers are factory equipped with the

PostScript option that makes available 35 PostScript fonts. To review the PostScript fonts, print a

PS Font List

(page 3-63).

Also, refer to your PostScript reference documentation.

Resident fonts available to PCL include the following:

• 10 TrueType fonts. See

“TrueType Fonts” (page 4-6)

.

• 35 Intellifont fonts. See

“Intellifont Fonts” (page 4-7)

.

• 1 PCL Bitmap font. See

PCL Bitmap Font

The printers have one resident bitmap font called

Line

Printer

. It comes in only one typeface, weight, and posture.

The Line Printer font may be used to provide:

• Line printer emulation for a print job.

• Backward compatibility for those applications that make use of the line printer font.

To review the PCL fonts in your printer, print a

PCL Font List

Adding Fonts

Utilizing fonts in addition to resident fonts can add new dimensions to your work. Additional fonts are available through the following:

• PostScript option. See

“PostScript” (page 4-9)

.

• Font cards for PCL fonts. See

“Font Cards” (page 4-10)

.

• Software applications. See

“Fonts within Software

Applications” (page 4-11)

.

PostScript

Thirty-five

PostScript

fonts (Adobe Type 1) are available to your printer, either factory-installed on the 4505ps and

4510ps printers, or user-installable on the 4505 and 4510 printers as an option. See


for more information on the PostScript option.

Many additional PostScript fonts are available through Adobe

Systems, Inc. and may be used when the PostScript option is installed on your printer.

If you have a 4505ps or 4510ps printer, see

“PostScript Menu”

(page 3-29)

for PostScript printer settings.

PostScript fonts are used by the PostScript Level 2 printer language. If you plan to program in the PostScript Level 2 printer language, refer to Adobe Systems, Inc. PostScript language reference documentation.

Note

The

Lang. Sensing

settings in the Parallel (page 3-42), Serial

(page 3-46), Ethernet (page 3-52), and Token Ring (page 3-55)

Menus enable automatic switching between the PostScript and PCL printer languages.

PostScript and PCL fonts are not interchangeable

.


❖

4-9



Font Cards

The 4505/4505ps and 4510/4510ps printers are equipped with two font card slots. See page 1-3 for the physical location of the slots. See

Chapter 5: Adding Printer Options

for font card installation.

Font cards for the 4505/4505ps and 4510/4510ps contain PCL fonts only

. In addition, font cards may contain one or more scalable fonts or bitmapped fonts. However, bitmapped and scalable fonts are not mixed on the same card.

A font card may contain its own

default

font. In this case, its default font becomes the printer’s default font. To change the default font, see


,

Font

Source

(page 3-19).

!

Caution

To avoid problems when inserting or removing a font card, take the printer offline by pressing Online

PCL font cards may be purchased from Xerox / Rank Xerox.

See


.

❖




Fonts within

Software

Applications

Certain software applications offer additional fonts to those supplied with your printer. These fonts are stored on the host and then

downloaded

into printer memory by the software application when printing.

Unless specified as permanently downloaded fonts (see page 4-13), software application fonts are downloaded to printer memory before being used for a specific printer job, and are removed from printer memory after completion of that print job.

Note

Installation of the Xerox printer driver provides the printer with the capability of recognizing which fonts are resident and which are not.

Selecting resident fonts saves memory and time

.


❖

4-11


S e l e c t i n g a F o n t

Selecting a Font

How is a font selected for printing?

The general answer is that you select a font

within the application you are running

. For example, if you are using a word processing application, you will select a font

from the font list

within the application.

If desired, you may select a font (PCL fonts only) from the

Control Panel or Remote User Interface (RUI). For an explanation of how to do this, see


Control Panel

,

Font Number

(page 3-20), or refer to the

Documentation Services for Printing Guide

for the RUI.

A font selected from the Control Panel or RUI becomes the

default

font for the printer unless overridden by the selection of a different font from your software application.

4-12

D o w n l o a d i n g F o n t s

Downloading

Fonts

Whether you do or do not use additional fonts, it is helpful to know a few facts about how the printer uses fonts either resident in the printer or

downloaded

(transferred) from the host.

Each time you specify a font in a document to be printed, the font is downloaded to printer,

unless the font is already

:

• Resident in the printer’s ROM (read-only memory)

—PCL only

.

• Specified in the printer driver as permanently downloaded to the printer’s internal memory

—PCL only

.

• Installed on the PostScript card

—PostScript only

.

• Installed on a font card

—PCL only

.

Consult your software application’s user documentation for a discussion of fonts associated with that application.

Temporary and

Permanent Fonts

Temporary fonts

are PCL fonts downloaded for a particular print job. As soon as the print job is finished, the fonts are cleared from memory.

They must be downloaded for each print job that uses them

. Downloading may have an impact on performance, depending on the number of fonts being downloaded. As a result, the print job using downloaded fonts may take longer than one using resident fonts.

As an example, when you print a mostly-text document in a resident font, printing time is optimal.

If you print that same document using a downloaded font, the time to print the first page is substantially longer than it was for your resident-font document. The remaining pages also take longer to print than those of the resident-font document.


❖

4-13



Note

For optimal performance, use

resident

fonts whenever applicable since they do not require downloading time.

Permanently downloaded fonts

are PCL fonts downloaded in the same way temporary fonts are, but they

remain downloaded

for all print jobs until the printer is powered off.

They are

permanent

only as long as the printer is on.

Similar to resident fonts or those on font cards, permanently downloaded fonts reduce the processing time for a print job that uses them. The distinction is that permanently downloaded fonts occupy printer memory that might be used otherwise.

How do you know if a font is permanently downloaded?

• Specify a font to be permanently downloaded when it is installed or setup within a software application.

• Print a

PCL Font List

(page 3-63) to see all resident fonts, all fonts installed on any font card, and

all permanently downloaded fonts

.

4-14

❖




Note

In general, it is not recommended that you permanently download fonts. Even if unused, permanent fonts occupy printer memory that cannot be used for other purposes.

In a networked environment, carefully coordinate the use of permanently downloaded fonts. Avoid allowing multiple users to specify permanently downloaded fonts since printer memory may be consumed rapidly and may cause printer faults.

Additional memory (SIMMs) will enable the printer to hold more downloaded fonts. See Chapter 1: Introduction,

“Memory Considerations” (page 1-6) and Chapter 5: Adding

Printer Options for more information about printer memory.

Installing a

SIMM

Since SIMMs are available from manufacturers other than

Xerox and might not contain installation instructions for the

4505/4505ps and 4510/4510ps printers, installation instructions are provided here.

The 4505/4505ps and 4510/4510ps printers are equipped with 2 MB of resident base memory. To expand printer memory capacity, install up to two 4 MB or 16 MB SIMMs on the printer controller board. (The total maximum memory capacity is 16 MB.)

Note

4505ps and 4510ps Users:

The 4505ps and 4510ps are each equipped with a pre-installed 4 MB SIMM for a total of 6 MB of memory.

To install a SIMM in the printer follow the steps below:

5-4

Overview

Maintaining the printer in good operating condition is essential to having a reliable, well-running machine.

This chapter describes the following:

• EP (electronic printing) cartridge replacement

• Fuser cleaning

• Regular cleaning

• Hints for transporting the printer

6-2

❖



R e p l a c i n g t h e E P C a r t r i d g e

Replacing the

EP Cartridge

An EP (electronic printing) cartridge will print approximately

4,000 pages of A4 or 8.5 x 11 (Letter) paper, under average operating conditions (5% area coverage). The number of prints per one EP cartridge will decrease if you routinely:

• Print dense text and graphics.

• Set

Print Density

(page 3-59) to a dark setting.

• Exceed five percent area coverage.

Note

An EP cartridge contains both

microfine toner

and

imaging drum

.

The EP cartridge is clean, efficient, and can be recycled.

The printer will alert you to the need to replace the EP cartridge by displaying this message:

Toner Low

To order a new EP cartridge (part number 113R5), contact your dealer or Xerox / Rank Xerox.


❖

6-3



To replace the EP cartridge, follow the steps below:

1

Remove the

Multipurpose (MP) tray, if installed.

Caution

To avoid damaging the hinge, support the front cover with your hands while opening it. Do not allow the cover to fall open.

2

Press the side latches down to release and open the front cover.

6-4

❖




!

Caution

Follow these guidelines to make sure the EP cartridge is properly installed:

• Do not expose the EP cartridge to direct sunlight or fluorescent light for more than 15 minutes. Overexposure will permanently damage the photosensitive imaging drum.

• Do not open the drum shutter or touch the imaging drum.

• Complete the EP cartridge installation within 15 minutes of removing it from its package.

3

Remove the old EP cartridge.

Please recycle it.


❖

Paper Jams

Your printer has been designed to provide reliable, trouble free operation. However, it is not unusual to experience an occasional paper jam. Paper jams occur most often when:

• The paper stock does not meet specification. See

“Paper

Specifications” (page 2-6)

.

• The paper stock is in poor condition.

• The paper stock has been improperly loaded into the paper trays. See

“Loading Paper” (page 2-14)

.

• The printer needs cleaning. See

“Fuser Cleaning Cycle”

(page 6-9)

.

• Printer parts have worn and need to be replaced.

When first powered ON, the printer detects any jammed paper. The movement of paper through the printer is constantly being monitored by the printer’s controllers.

When the printer detects a misfeed or a paper jam, the printing process is halted, and the Control Panel message

Open Cover

Clear Paper Path is displayed. This message indicates that a jam was detected in the printer. The entire paper path should be checked each time a paper jam is cleared.

After the paper jam has been cleared, the printer will resume operation to complete the print job.

Problems

Figure 7.4 lists common operational problems and recommended actions.

Figure 7.4

Printer Operational Problems

Problem

Printer will not print

A file sent from the host does not print

Action

1.

Power printer OFF, then ON.

2.

Print a Configuration Sheet (see

page 3-62

).

• If Configuration Sheet prints, printer is OK. Check your software application and your printer connection. See below.

• If Configuration Sheet does not print, contact your dealer or Xerox / Rank

Xerox.

1.

Check if printer is Online.

2.

Send a plain text file (i.e., one without printing commands embedded in it) to the printer. (You may need to depress the form feed key when the LED remains lit if Auto Job End is not set.)

• If file prints correctly in the default font, with all of the characters in the original file, the printer is seeing the same data that the host is sending, and the interface or communication line is functioning correctly.

• If no data prints (or the last page indicator does not come on):

A. Check configuration to be certain the printer is configured properly.

B.

If using the parallel or serial port, the port may be disabled on the printer. Check the Configuration Sheet for the port you are using to see if Port Enable is ON. If OFF, set to ON and try again.

C. If using an optional Xerox network interface card (XNIC) (i.e.,

Ethernet, LocalTalk, or Token Ring), check the Configuration Sheet to see if the printer is acknowledging that the XNIC is present. (Refer to XNIC installation instructions packaged with the option.)

– If the XNIC is not acknowledged, power OFF printer and unplug. Pull out controller board, remove the XNIC and check that connector pins are not bent. If bent, straighten. Reseat the

XNIC securely, put controller board back in printer, power ON and print Configuration Sheet. If XNIC is still not acknowledged, the XNIC has failed. Contact your dealer or

Xerox / Rank Xerox.

– If the XNIC is acknowledged, check if printer is recognized by the host. (Refer to the Troubleshooting chapter of the respective XNIC installation guide.)

D. If garbled data, check Configuration Sheet to confirm that the correct emulation is selected or Language Sensing is ON. Also, check that data transfer matches host configuration (i.e., Transfer Rate,

Baud Rate, Handshake, Data Bits, etc.). If not, correct configuration on printer and try again.

1.

Make certain that the software application you are using to create your print job is configured properly. Refer to your software documentation.

2.

Send a file containing PCL or PostScript commands to the printer.

• If your page prints as it should, your printer and interface are functioning properly.

• If your information prints correctly, but doesn’t look right, you may have:

– An error in your command sequence/operator

– A missing downloaded font

– A mismatched printer option against your host formatting

– A missing or misaligned font card

• Command errors may be identified by looking at your input file or by using the Hex Dump feature on the printer. You can determine which fonts are in the system by printing a PCL or PS Font List. And you can verify your data setup by printing a Configuration Sheet and checking your printer setup.

In a job, a requested font, which is on a font card, does not print

1.

Print a PCL Font List (See

Chapter 3

.)

• If your requested fonts print on the Font List, your print job may need correcting.

• If your requested fonts do not print on the Font List, power the printer

OFF, remove and reinstall the font card. Power the printer back ON, and print another PCL Font List.

• If font card is still not being recognized, try another slot or font card, then print another Font List.

– If a different font slot works, contact your dealer or Xerox / Rank

Xerox to correct the defective slot.

– If a new font card is recognized, contact your dealer or Xerox / Rank

Xerox about replacing the defective card.

Figure 7.4


(continued)

Problem Action

The text printed is a listing of the PostScript commands instead of the PostScript job

A legal document prints but the edges are cut off

A PostScript job fails to print

1.

Make certain that the software application you are using to create your job is configured properly. Refer to your software documentation.

2.

If Language Sensing is set to OFF, make certain that the

System Language

setting for the port you are using is set to PostScript. See the

“Interface Menu

Hierarchy” (page 3-37)

.

3.

If Language Sensing is set to ON, the job sent to the printer might have included an incorrect header and therefore not have indicated that a

PostScript Job was being sent.

• Set System Language to PostScript in the appropriate Interface Menu (i.e.

Parallel, Serial, etc.) and try sending the job again.

• Check your software to make sure the PostScript header file is being sent to the printer.

1.

Set Page Protection to Legal. If page is still being clipped, more memory needs to be installed.

1.

Check the configuration and be certain the proper emulation is selected; also check the configuration of your printer driver configuration.

2.

If Language Sensing is set to ON, set System Language to PostScript in the appropriate Interface Menu (i.e. Parallel, Serial, etc.) and resend the job.

3.

Set Print Errors to ON and resend job.

• If error page prints, this means that there is a problem in the PostScript coding. Correct the coding problem and resend the job.

• If job does not print and no error page was printed, set Page Protection to OFF.

• If job still does not print, this job may require additional memory.

Parallel Interface

Today most single-user computer systems (IBM PC and compatibles) utilize the parallel interface because it allows more data at a time to be transferred from the computer to the printer than does a serial interface. If the printer is not connected to a network, printing through the parallel interface is most desirable.

The printers support a bidirectional parallel port, compatible with the IEEE standard 1284-B, with forward transfer rates of

100 KBytes or 1 MBytes.

The FAULT signal (pin no. 32) goes true (low) under the following conditions:

• Off-line mode selected

• Cover open (interlock open)

• Paper out

• Paper jam

• Any machine fault


❖

A-7



The FAULT signal goes false (high) when all the above conditions are corrected.

The Centronics bidirectional parallel interface is designed to provide plug-to-plug compatibility with a 36 pin Amphenol

57-40360 (or equivalent) connector that connects to an

Amphenol 57-30360 (or equivalent) connector. The cable length has been certified at 6 feet, and will be the twisted pair type 22AWG -15 pairs. Pin assignment and functions for the

RS-232C Serial

Interface

(CCITT V.24)

The RS-232C Serial Interface complies with the EIA 232C standard which defines the interconnect of Data Terminal

Equipment (DTE) and Data Communication Equipment

(DCE).

Data Rates

The user may select line speeds of 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800,

9600, 19200 and 38400 baud.

Default setting is for 9600 baud

.

Encoding

Asynchronous communication in the printers supports 7 or

8-bit ASCII data. The string of data bits is encapsulated by 1

Start bit, 1 or 2 Stop bits and may have an appended Parity bit. Parity (even, odd or none), the number of stop bits and 7 or 8 bit data are selectable from the front panel UI.

Default settings are for 8 bit data with 1 stop bit and parity none

.

Protocols

Character protocols are used to regulate the flow of information between machine and host. The software handshaking protocol of XON/XOFF, Robust XON/XOFF, and DTR Polarity are available – DTR provides the hardware handshaking.

The default setting is for Robust XON/XOFF

.

Connections

The connector for the RS-232 interface is the 25 pin “D” Shell type. The use of short cables for interconnect is recommended. Cable length has been certified at 4 feet.

Null Modem

A null modem is a device that eliminates both a modem and a telephone line. When the printers are used with an asynchronous serial interface connected to a DTE host (such as a PC-compatible), a modem, modem eliminator, or a null modem is required. Figure A.6 shows null modem wiring.

AUG-APPC Page 2 Black Saturday, January 21, 1995 7:14 PM

The 4505/4505ps printers provide a parallel port, serial port, and

one

additional network interface port option,

all of which may be active at the same time

.

The 4510/4510ps printers provide a parallel port, serial port, and

three

additional network interface port options,

all of which may be active at the same time

.

To coordinate automatic switching among the ports, the printer monitors the parallel, serial, and network interface ports for incoming data. When a print job is detected on one port, the printer sends a busy signal to the other ports and queues the print job into memory for processing. This is called

port polling

. Note that while all ports may be simultaneously active, only one port at a time is able to receive a print job.

For the 4505/4505ps printers:

When print jobs are pending on all three ports (parallel, serial, and the network interface port), the port polling sequence is:

1 Parallel

2 Serial

3 Network

4 Back to Parallel

C-2

❖


AUG-APPC Page 3 Black,Cyan Saturday, January 21, 1995 7:14 PM

For the 4510/4510ps printers:

When print jobs are pending on all five ports (parallel, serial, and the network interface ports), the port polling sequence is:

1 Parallel

2 Serial

3 Ethernet

4 Token Ring

5 Back to Parallel

Note

LocalTalk

is not a part of this sequence. When a print job is detected on the LocalTalk port, the print job is put in the queue immediately after any current job finishes.

Except for those on the LocalTalk interface,

print jobs are processed in the sequence in which they are received by the printer

. As soon as one print job has finished, the printer continues polling until it finds another port that has received data.

If a print job is incomplete, the printer waits until the port is inactive for the

Port Timeout

period. After that, the printer ends the incomplete job and continues polling the ports when either:

•

Auto Job End

is

On

or

• Another print job is received on a port

Therefore, the printer does not excessively service one particular port.

The Xerox

Commitment to

Environmental

Quality

Xerox Corporation is committed to an international program to safeguard our environment by diverting certain products and materials from the solid waste stream. We do this by reusing serviceable components and remanufacturing selected products.

To support this effort we have made it easy for you to return selected printer equipment and empty print cartridges to Xerox. We recondition the print cartridges and refill them with Xerox toner and developer. All products we manufacture meet our stringent performance standards and are backed by the same Total

Satisfaction Guarantee we offer with our newly manufactured products.

The world-wide effort to remanufacture printer equipment and recondition and reuse print cartridges benefits the environment and conserves our natural resources by reducing waste going into our landfills. Besides, it makes good business sense for Xerox and Xerox customers. Please join us in this effort.
