    Shutdown is performed through the Web Printer Management Tool or through the
    System Administration screen. In some environments, only authorized persons will be
    allowed to power down the system, therefore requiring the System Administrator
    password.

    machine. If the machine will not be used for an extended amount of time, the printer
    and controller may be powered down.
    Check the Circuit Breaker once a month for correct operation. If you notice any unusual
    conditions, contact your Xerox Customer Support Center.

    1.Perform steps 1 and 2 of the System Power Off Procedure.
    2.Press the Test button while the Circuit Breaker switch is in the on (up) position. If the
    Circuit Breaker turns off, it is operating correctly.

    							About Media and Originals
    This section describes the kinds of media which are available for this machine, as well
    as the appropriate media handling, loading and storage procedures.
    The use of inappropriate media may result in media jams, reduced print quality,
    malfunctions and other problems. To make the most effective use of the machine, we
    suggest that you use only the media recommended by Xerox.
    There are several configurations of the 6279 Wide Format Printer for media input. The
    standard is a one Drawer machine with two rolls. You have the option to upgrade to add
    a second drawer with two rolls or two cut-sheet media trays.
    NOTE
    Media may be ordered from Xerox at www.xerox.com in the US. From the home
    page, select Supplies > Paper and Media Type > For Wide Format Products.
    NOTE
    A Load or Change Media Type selection will display on the UI, if the Accxes Controller
    detects that the required media is not loaded in the machine when it receives a print
    job.
    Media Parameters
    The media parameters (size series, type, weight) must be set up when new media is
    loaded or when the size and type of the media is changed. This information enables the
    machine’s Accxes Controller to optimize printing and fusing based on the media which
    is selected for a print job.
    Refer to the Accxes Client Tools “Overview and Quick Start” sections of the HELP menu
    for details on sending jobs to your printer.
    Refer to the Specifications chapter for many more details on media specifications.

    Precautions When Handling Media
    Observe the following precautions when handling media:
    •Use caution with media that has been folded, wrinkled, torn, or had holes punched
    in them. These may result in document jams and tearing.
    •Make sure your media is not damp.
    TIP
    Jams may occur if the media being used differs from the current media setting.
    Always select the correct media size, type and thickness to achieve the best results.

    							Storing Media
    The optimum environment in which to store paper media is a humidity of 40 to 45%.
    Keep the following in mind when storing paper media:
    •Moisture is not good for media. For storage, wrap the media in wrapping paper and
    store it in a comparatively dry place. Tracing paper, especially, should be put in a
    plastic or moisture-proof bag that contains desiccant.
    •When the machine is not used for a long period of time, remove the media and store
    it appropriately.
    •The printer has a paper heater. This goes on when the system detects humidity. The
    switch is located next to the waste toner bottle on the right hand side of the machine.
    •Store the media on a flat surface to prevent curl.
    Loading Roll Media
    A Load or Change Media Type selection will display on the UI, if the Accxes Controller
    detects that the required media is not loaded in the machine when it receives a print
    job.
    When changing the Media Type, Size or Weight, make sure you change the media
    settings before printing jobs. This section also shows how to use the Media Advance
    button to advance and cut the roll media.
    For information about the set up procedure, refer to the Media Status and Setup  section
    in Chapter 4, Machine Information.
    1.Gently pull out the Media Drawer 1 for Rolls 1 and 2 media.
    Or pull out Media Drawer 2 (optional) if it is present on your machine and requires
    media.

    							2.Lift and remove the Media Roll that needs to be replaced.
    3.Pinch the Green Lever at the end of the Media Shaft in the direction of the Media
    Size Label to release the roll from the shaft.
    NOTE
    Pinching the Green Lever releases the spring tension lock, making it possible for
    you to remove the shaft from the core.
    4.Slowly pull the Media Shaft from the core of the Media Roll.

    							5.Pinch the Green Lever again to insert the new Media Shaft into a new media roll. Be
    sure the roll ends are aligned according to the Media Size Label.
    6.Remove the manufacturer’s piece of tape holding the edge of the roll from unraveling.
    NOTE
    If you see any remaining glue when removing the tape from a new roll, wipe it
    clean. This can cause misfeeds.
    If the Media Roll is damaged, trim the damaged edge with scissors before proceeding
    to the next step.
    WARNING
    Be careful not to pinch your fingers when you set the roll media in the Media
    Drawer.
    7.Return the Media Roll into the Shaft Guide with the paper’s lead edge feeding under
    the roll and towards you.
