Evaluate your print output for paper curl

Before using a specific Decurler Profile, evaluate your output for

paper curl and whether or not you need to use a Decurler Profile

by performing the following steps.

1.

Determine if Xerox has tested your paper type and weight
by going to the

www.xerox.com

web site and referring to

the latest

Recommended Materials List

(RML) for your

digital press.

2.

Run a set of 10-15 prints using the system default settings
for the Decurler option on the Tray Properties window.

3.

Retrieve your output prints from the digital press exit area.

4.

Check your output prints for paper curl; determine if they are
curled upward (“cupped”) or curled downward (“bridged”).

TIP:

The amount of curl on the output paper is affected by paper

properties (weight, coating) and the amount of graphics and text

on the paper.
