Xerox Service can set the heaters to operate in three modes: 1. off when printing 2. off when printer is switched on. 3. on all the time. The heaters continue to operate when the printer is switched off, as long as the printer is connected to a live power outlet.
MANUAL BYPASS FEED The bypass feed mode is used when the print, which is being sent to the printer, is a different size than the roll media loaded in the printer. For example: You want to send a C size print, but there is no C size media loaded in the printer. You can use the bypass feed mode to run the C size print, using cut sheet media. When the correct media is not loaded for an incoming print, the Status Display shows the flashing code P-05. 1. Adjust the paper guides to the correct size. 2.
