Introduction
This guide provides information for selecting, storing, and using
paper in a Xerox Nuvera® Digital Production System and a Xerox
Nuvera® 288 Digital Perfecting System. Its goal is to help you
optimize image quality, paper handling, and the overall
performance of the system.
The Xerox Nuvera Production and Perfecting Systems use a
media selection model rather than a tray selection model. There
are several benefits to selecting the media such as higher
productivity, less wasted stock (especially important for specialty
stock), and correct output media assurance. One important factor
of this model is to ensure that the stock properties are set correctly
when the paper trays are assigned. This will allow the system to
function with optimal performance.
