Product Specifications
All references to media capacity are based on the Xerox Centerline Paper. 
Centerline Paper identifies the stock at the middle of the range of stocks 
that will deliver optimum performance for a given characteristic. Other 
paper weights and brands may alter performance (for example, paper tray 
capacities).

1  The Average Monthly Print Volume is the expected regular monthly 
throughput for 8.5x11/A4 paper. 
2  The Monthly Duty Cycle is the maximum volume capacity expected in any 
one month. This volume us supported under standard vendor supplied 
service for any single month but is not expected to be sustained on a 
regular basis.  Customers should consider higher volume machines or 
multiple machines if average monthly volume approaches the maximum 
duty cycle on a continual basis.  
 
NOTE: Refer to the following for more detailed specification information: 
Feature Specifications, Print Engine Productivity Charts, and Feeding from 
the Bypass Tray 5. 
 
The press is designed to operate in the range of 75,000 – 250,000 prints per 
month. At an average usage of 100,000 prints per month using centerline 
paper, it is expected that service will be required about once every 3.5 
weeks. Prints between service calls on a digital color press depend upon 
individual customer requirements for quality, volume, applications, and 
throughput material. Generally, customers who participate in formal operator 
training from Xerox experience better performance, improved productivity, 
and reduced service activity. 
 
The recommended maximum Black-only (K-only) volume is 20% of total 
monthly volume, or up to 20,000 K-only AMIV.

Customers will also achieve improved system uptime and elimination of 
certain service calls through the Technical Key Operator Replaceable Units 
(TKORU) program. TKORU is a self-maintenance program that will enable 
trained operators to replace certain parts (Fuser Belt Module, Pressure Roll, 
Stripper Finger Assembly, and Pressure Roll Cleaning Pad) and perform 
other service and diagnostic tasks. The TKORU program will provide supplies, 
documentation, and Technical Key Operator training, which will be scheduled 
with the Xerox Customer Service Engineer or Analyst at or shortly after 
installation. Following the initial TKORU training, if the customer requires 
additional people to be trained it may be chargeable or the service pricing 
maybe adjusted. If the customer fails to perform the TKORU maintenance 
tasks, the service entity will be able to charge the customer for the service 
labor performing these tasks. 
 
Technology
Full Width Array
The Full Width Array provides a way for the user to perform some common 
image quality management tasks. The Full Width Array procedures must 
be initiated by an operator at either the Print Server (FreeFlow Print Server 
or EFI Fiery) or at the machine's control panel/touch screen. All target 
sheets are then generated and scanned automatically, and all 
measurements, calculations, and corrections are performed automatically. 
For several of the Full Width Array processes, manual inspection of a 
confirmation print is required. The Full Width Array does not monitor or 
make adjustments within a print job. 
 
Refer to Full Width Array Expectations for detailed information on the Full 
Width Array procedures.
