PREINSTALLATION
Xerox representative for information about custom fonts. Refer
to the back of this book for information regarding Xerox Font
Services.
Receiving fonts
The fonts provided by Xerox or Rank Xerox are contained either
on floppy disks, 1/4 cartridge, open reel tape, or 1/2 inch
cartridge, 1600 bits per inch (bpi), labeled magnetic tape. One
tape may contain several fonts, each in a separate file.
Your site representative will assist you with determining your LPS
font needs for installation.
Paper
Select your paper carefully to eliminate the possibility of paper
jams and poor print quality.
Acceptable paper stocks and sizes Your LPS can print on standard white, colored, predrilled, and
preprinted paper, labels, and transparencies. The acceptable
paper sizes are from 8.0 by 10 inches/ 203 x 254 mm to 8.5 by
14 inches/216 x 356 mm. Consult Helpful Facts About Paper for
more information regarding acceptable paper types.
The 4890 also prints on any non-standard size paper within the
range specified above.
Paper weights and grade For best results, use 20 pound/80 gsm (grams per square meter)
bond xerographic grade paper. Xerox or Rank Xerox papers are
specifically designed for optimal performance in your LPS. The
heaviest acceptable weight paper is 110 pound/200 gsm. The
lightest acceptable weight paper is 20 pound/80 gsm.
Paper is fed into the LPS with the long side as the leading edge.
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.
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 a supply of paper for at least a day in
the same area as the printer to allow environmental
stabilization prior to printing.
