Paper latitudes are unique for each inline finishing solution.
The Xerox SquareFold Booklet Maker Covers Insertion Module (CIM) is not supported for the
SquareFold Booklet Maker. As an alternative, the Inserter Module can be used for covers insertion
except when sending LCDS or IPDS jobs. The Bourg BDFx Booklet Maker with the BCFx Covers
Feeder can be used with LCDS or IPDS jobs that require covers.
Supported Inline DFA Finishing Solutions are compatible with specific Xerox Nuvera
®
configurations.
Consult finisher module details in this document and, for more details, the Solutions Planning
Guideline for the selected DFA Finishing device. The Finishing Solutions Planning Guides can be
accessed by Xerox sales Reps at http://xww.thefic.xerox.com/dsweb/View/Collection-113169.
Basic Finishing Module (BFM) and Basic Finishing Module Plus (BFM Plus)
Substrates that tend to exhibit curl when being fed through the Xerox Nuvera
®
system can cause
functional problems in the finishing devices. In most cases, the sheet enhancement module will
deliver flat output. In cases where the output may still need adjustment, you can fine tune the Sheet
Enhancement Module controls or you can manually specify the amount of decurling you prefer. See
the ‘User Guide and Training Aid: How Do I? – Manage Paper Curl’, for additional information.
The BFM and BFM Plus do not offset paper sizes larger than 11x17" / A3. This means that 12x18 or
12x18.5 cannot be offset. For these sizes, software ignores any offset programming selection.
For reliable stacking, stack size should be limited for certain jobs:
--Stapled sets of 15 sheets or smaller are limited by machine control to 100 sets.
--Stapled sets of coated stocks stack less well, and should be managed to 50 by the operator.
--Stapled sets should be offset stacked.
--The stack height limit can be operator adjusted.
Banner and slip sheets should be greater than or equal to 90 gsm (24 lb bond)
Slip-sheets must be the same size as the body sheets
When stapling sets with mixed size stock, the stock must be the same dimension in the Across Feed
direction, and the dimension differences should be within 13mm (½”) in the feed direction.
Drilled paper must be loaded with the holes leading (e.g. to the left) when using two Basic Finishing
Modules.
Multifunction Finisher
Statement size paper (5.5” x 8.5”) and Envelopes (as noted above) will be delivered only to the top
tray.
Staple locations for non-standard size papers (e.g., standard sizes are A4, Letter size, etc.) will be
slightly asymmetrical. The staple will be located in the position appropriate for the next nearest
standard paper size.
Substrates that tend to exhibit curl when being fed through the Xerox Nuvera
®
system can cause
functional problems in the finishing devices. On MFF systems (which do not include the Sheet
Enhancement Module), it may be necessary to adjust the Print Engine decurler in order to get the
substrate to become flatter, so that the finisher runs with optimal performance. The proper Print
Engine decurler setting will vary depending on the substrate and the ambient environmental
conditions. Paper left opened overnight may exacerbate curl.
Tearing of booklet covers near the staples can occur with booklets using 9 or more sheets of paper,
under the following conditions: a) there is high image coverage around the gutter area on the inside
of the cover or on the inside or outside gutters of the first couple of booklet sheets (note that gutter
area image coverage on the innermost sheet of the booklet is OK), or, b) the cover stock is smooth
and/or lightweight (<80gsm). With certain other stocks (coated stocks, or uncoated stocks with high
area coverage Xerographic Color Images), the cover tearing can occur even with booklets containing
less than 9 sheets of paper.

Makeready, Web Services and Process Manager, version 5.0 SP4, is the first version to
provide named support for the Nuvera

EA family. Compatibility support is provided in versions 4.x; however,
customers with these earlier versions may need to upgrade since SPAR support will not be available.
