User Manual
Chapter 1
Getting started
This chapter describes how to switch the Océ 9800 ‘on’
and ‘off’, and how to read basic components of the printer
display. It also explains in what configurations the
Océ 9800 is available.

8 Océ 9800 Printer User Manual
Switching on and off
The Océ 9800 can be switched on by hand, or switched on automatically by
the time switch. The setting of the time switch is set by the key operator. The
on/off timer switch with the key is located on the right side panel of the display
(see figure 1). Turn this key to the ‘timer’ position if you want it to switch on
and off automatically.
Your key operator can program the time switch to switch on the system each
day of a work week at a specified time. This can be quite handy because the
warm-up time of the system will be approximately 20 minutes. By activating
the timer you’ll find the system ready for use, when you are.
The on/off timer switch has three settings:
■on: the system is switched on.
■off: the system is switched off.
■timer: the system will be switched-on automatically at a time of your choice
and switched-off after a certain idle time.

High Capacity Stacker (optional) The on/off switch on the optional High
Capacity Stacker must always be left in the ‘on’ position. The High Capacity
Stacker is automatically switched on and off along with the system.

Reading the display
The display on the printer will show the following components:
[2] Components of the printer display
By pressing the button under ‘Print’ in the lower right corner of the display,
you can enable or disable plotting on the Océ 9800 printer.
If ‘Print’ is selected (black), the system will accept and print incoming jobs.
The jobs will be handled in incoming order. If the controller is currently
processing a print job, the display will show ‘Processing’. If ‘Print’ is not
selected (white) the printing process isstopped after printing the pagesthat are
already sent to the engine. The system however, will continue to accept
incoming print jobs as long as enough memory is available. For more
information about stopping print jobs, (see ‘Stopping a print job’ on page 22).
The memory indicator shows the amount of memory that is currently in use,
along with the number of jobs in memory and the time it will take to print these
jobs. ‘Prints’ in the upper left corner of the display indicates the number of
(sets of) prints that are left to be made for the current job.
The roll indicator shows the kind of copy material and the format that is
currently loaded on the different rolls of the engine.
The message area above the print button area displays the current activity of
the controller.

Chapter 2
Using the Océ 9800
This chapter explains the layout and use of the operating
panel. You’ll learn how to operate the printer for basic
print jobs.

14 Océ 9800 Printer User Manual
The operating panel (layout and use)
The operating panel of the Océ 9800 Printer is located at the front of the print
engine. It is illustrated in this manual’s inside back cover. As you can see in
this scheme, the panel consists of a display, and below this the start, numeric,
correction, and stop buttons.
This section consists of two parts. The first part explains for basic use the
names of the fixed buttons and where to find them. The second part is about
special use. That is how to use the soft buttons over and along the sides of the
display to define your default print settings.
Buttons
Start The button marked with is used to re-start the print process, or for
other purpose, such as to confirm a dialogue.
Numeric buttons The buttons with numbers on the lower part of the operating
panel are used to specify numbers.
Correction The orange button marked with C, located on the right side of the
operating panel, is used to switch to another level of settings, to cancel a
dialogue, or to retrieve default settings.
Stop Pressing the small red button over the Correction button stops the
printing process.

Using the Océ 9800 15
Display and soft keys
The operator panel is used to (re-)start and stop the printer. The display
provides feedback about print job status and memory content. The section and
function buttons above and under the display allow you to enter (default)
printer settings.
The display informs you about:
■the number of (sets of) prints, still to be made for the current job.
■the memory indicator shows the amount of memory that is currently in use,
along with the number of jobs in memory and the time it will take to print
these jobs.
■the roll indicator shows the kind of copy material that is currently loaded on
the different rolls of the engine.
■the actual system status, for example ‘Warming up’. In the event of an error
in the printer, the exact error location (covers or panels) are graphically
shown on the display, together with instructions on how to solve the problem.

■Machine settings can not be overruled by job specific printer settings.
Examples of machine settings are: changing the timer/clock, specify the type
of copy material that is currently loaded in the printer, and reset the counter.
■Default settings can be overruled by job specific printer settings that are sent
along with the print job. Examples of default settings are: copy material to be
used, deposit mode, folding method and stamp selection.
Key operator button By pressing this button you can enter the key operator or
system administrator mode. As this functionality is restricted to a dedicated
user, a different PIN code is required for each mode.
Section and function buttons By means of the section buttons you can access
the machine, program, finishing and copy sections. In a section, you can use
the function buttons to select a specific function; the function name belonging
to each button is shown in the display.
As you can see in illustration 5 on page 15, the display is surrounded by
buttons. Their function depends on the state of the display.
The top four buttons (section buttons) provide access to the sections (main
menus). Each high level menu item contains several functions (‘cards’). The
left button, or card selection button, provides access to the cards. The function
buttons allow you to select functions or sub functions in a card. Finally you
may use the higher/lower buttons, or numeric buttons to define numeric
settings.
When operating the buttons of the Océ 9800 display, keep this sequence in
mind: start with one of the section buttons and work counter clock-wise to the
card selection and function buttons. Finally, use the triangular higher/lower
buttons to make a selection.
