NPRO Length

This entry sets an extra length that is added to the ®xed

Range of 0 to 1200 inches.

 

NPRO length to create a total distance that forms are

 

 

moved through the printer.

 

 

This entry can be used when an uncoupled (not

 

 

functionally attached) postprocessing device is installed

 

 

and it is necessary to extend the NPRO length to be able

 

 

to easily remove forms at the postprocessing device

 

 

output.

 

 

If any installed and enabled

 

 

preprocessing/postprocessing devices have the

 

 

ªPre/postprocessor Extended NPROº distance of an

 

 

enabled pre/postprocessor set to greater than zero, then

 

 

that distance will take precedence over the ªNPRO

 

 

Lengthº, even if the ªNPRO Lengthº is longer. The

 

 

ªPre/postprocessor Extended NPROº distance is set in

 

 

the Con®gure Pre/Post procedure. If several

 

 

ªPre/postprocessor Extended NPROº distances are set,

 

 

then the longest one takes precedence.

 

 

 

 

Auto NPRO at End

This entry indicates whether an automatic NPRO is

Yes or No

of Forms

performed when an End of Forms is detected.

 

 

 

 

Jam Recovery Point

This entry sets a distance past the printer fuser sufficient

Range of 0 to 500 inches.

Distance

for forms to reach an installed postprocessing device, so

 

 

that those forms will be reprinted following a forms jam

 

 

recovery.

 

 

In duplex mode, this distance is measured past the fuser

 

 

of Printer 2. In dual simplex mode, it is a distance past

 

 

either Printer 1 or Printer 2.

 

 

A non-zero value setting assumes that: a postprocessing

 

 

device is installed and enabled, the ªJam Recovery Typeº

 

 

con®guration item setting above allows reprinting of

 

 

pages, and the ªDirect Attachº con®guration item setting

 

 

above is No.

pushbutton is selected during execution of the

 

 

Thread/Align Forms procedure in duplex mode.

 

 

 

 

Length of Forms

This entry sets the length, in inches, of the forms path

Range of 150 to 800 inches.

Between Transfer

length from the alignment mark on the transfer station

Default is 315 inches.

Points (D)

tractors of Printer 1, through Printer 1, across the ¯oor to

 

 

the Buffer/Flipper Unit, through the Buffer/Flipper Unit,

 

 

across the ¯oor to Printer 2, under Printer 2 up to the

 

 

alignment mark on the transfer station tractors of Printer

 

 

2. This is used during the duplex mode procedure

 

 

Thread/Align Forms. If you are continually feeding

 

 

paper at either printer in order to get the forms aligned,

 

 

this con®guration item may have to be changed.
