SETTING THE SYSTEM CONFIGURATION

5.Enter a name for the trace file. You can enter the full directory path along with the file name to save the trace file directly to a desired location. If no file name or file path is specified, the file is saved as Trace and stored in the /var/db directory.

Note: It is recommended that the trace file name start with trace_, followed by the name of the trace, all in lower case characters. For example, if the trace name is test, enter the following as the file name:

trace_test

Note: The trace file is a large file and can quickly fill up a directory. For that reason, the default /var/db directory is the recommended place to store trace files.

6.Click OK to start the trace.

7.Start the printer at the host.

8.Send a job to the IPS. The trace runs on this job. (The throughput speed of the job when running in Trace Mode is slower than in normal operation.)

9.Select Normal Operation from the Trace Options pull-down menu.

10. Click Quit.

Executing a captured trace

To execute a trace to assist with system diagnostics:

1.Capture the trace, following the steps described in the section “Capturing a trace” above.

2.Select Trace Options from the Diagnostics pull-down menu on the main window.

3.Click Offline to disable the interface.

4.From the Trace Mode pull-down menu, select Execute Trace. The Default Trace File Name prompt window displays.

5.If you have already given the trace file a name during the capturing process, that name is displayed on this screen.

If you were not capturing a trace file, or if you want to execute a trace file different from the one just captured, enter the name on the line provided in the Default Trace File Name window.

6.Click Apply. The job prints. After the job has completed, the system returns to normal operation.

7.After the job has completed, select Normal Operation.

8.Click Online to enable the interface.

9.Click Quit.

Note: After executing a trace file, make sure to cancel the FSS and restart IPS before submitting any jobs. Otherwise, the output of any submitted jobs may be missing all of the text data.

Its standout feature is its high-speed printing capability, reaching up to 90 pages per minute. This speed is complemented by the advanced imaging technology that guarantees sharp text and vibrant images. The 4090 IPS utilizes a laser printing mechanism, which contributes to its ability to produce fine detail and consistency across various media.

On the other hand, the Xerox 4050 IPS offers slightly lower speed at 50 pages per minute but compensates with additional versatility. It supports a diverse range of media types, including heavy cardstock, envelopes, and labels, making it a perfect choice for businesses requiring varied print outputs. Both models feature a powerful processor and an extensive memory capacity, ensuring seamless print processing even for complex documents loaded with graphics and images.

Both printers come equipped with Xerox’s Intelligent Print System (IPS) technologies, which optimize print workflows for efficiency and manageability. This system allows for easy integration into existing network environments and supports various file formats, enhancing compatibility across different platforms. In addition, the user-friendly interface and touchscreen control panel simplify navigation and job management.

Security features are also a priority in both models. They include secure print functionalities and options for user authentication, ensuring that sensitive information remains protected during the printing process.

In summary, the Xerox 4090 IPS and 4050 IPS deliver outstanding performance through their high-speed printing, exceptional print quality, and adaptability to various media types. Coupled with innovative technologies designed for efficiency and security, these printers are well-suited for organizations needing reliable and high-quality printing solutions. Overall, both the 4090 IPS and 4050 IPS represent a significant advancement in digital printing technology, setting a high standard in the industry.
