MEDIA

Using the cut sheet feed-in shelf

When the correct media size or type is not loaded in the printer, you can bypass the media drawers and manually load cut sheets into the printer.

If large size cut-sheet prints, portrait D-size (A1) oe E-size (A0), are being made, return to the Printer and guide the lead edge of the print as it exits the Printer to prevent the print from jamming at the exit. With the Output Tray in the raised position, the prints could feed back into the Printer.

To manually feed cut sheets into the printer:

1.Raise the output tray all the way until it rests on top of the printer.

2.Select the appropriate cut sheet for the print job.

NOTE: The minimum size for a cut sheet is 8-1/2 x 11 inches (216 x 279 mm) fed short edge lead.

3.Set the BYPASS media type on the printer control panel to the correct one for the print job. See "Changing the roll media size and type" for further information.

NOTE: The printer will accept whatever media type you manually feed into it, regardless of the media type you specify. You should ensure that the media type is correct, however, as the printer uses the media type to determine the fuser temperature. The wrong fuser temperature could cause poor print quality. It could also result in a maintenance service call, if any toner rubs off the media onto the fuser roll.

4.Center the media between the size indicators on the cut sheet feed-in shelf.

5.Feed the lead edge of the media squarely into the printer until the printer grabs and advances the media.

6.From the client workstation, specify Manual Feed as the media source.

7.Submit the print job.

8.When you are finished manually feeding cut sheets, lower the output tray.

510DP specifications

The Xerox 510DP is a notable early digital printing system that revolutionized the approach to high-quality document production in the 1980s. Designed for commercial and in-plant printing environments, this machine was well-regarded for its unique combination of quality, speed, and reliability that met the burgeoning needs of businesses seeking to streamline their printing processes.

One of the hallmark features of the 510DP is its advanced laser printing technology. Unlike traditional ink-based printers of its time, the Xerox 510DP utilized a laser scanning mechanism that provided finer detail and sharper image quality. This technology not only enhanced the precision of text reproduction but also ensured exceptional photo-quality graphics, meeting the demands of graphic designers and commercial printers.

The Xerox 510DP also boasted a high printing speed, making it an efficient choice for high-volume printing tasks. With a production rate of up to 120 pages per minute, it significantly reduced turnaround times for large print jobs, something that was critical in a competitive market where time often equated to revenue. The ability to handle a variety of paper sizes and weights further added to its versatility, ensuring that users could produce everything from simple black-and-white documents to complex color brochures.

In terms of operation, the 510DP featured a user-friendly interface designed for ease of use, even for those without extensive technical expertise. Its intuitive controls allowed operators to quickly set up jobs and make adjustments as needed, reducing the likelihood of errors and downtime during production. Additionally, the system's modular design allowed for configuration changes and upgrades, ensuring that it could adapt to evolving printing requirements.

The Xerox 510DP was also equipped with advanced data handling capabilities, allowing it to process complex print jobs with ease. Its support for various data formats and compatibility with numerous software applications made it an attractive option for businesses looking to integrate their printing workflows with existing infrastructure.

In summary, the Xerox 510DP represented a significant advancement in printing technology during its time. With its cutting-edge laser printing capabilities, impressive speed, user-friendly interface, and flexible configuration options, it set a standard for digital printing systems that paved the way for subsequent innovations in the industry. Its impact can still be felt today as companies continue to rely on digital solutions for their printing needs.
