3. Preparing the Binder 120 for
on-line and off-line operation
This chapter describes the modes of operation of the Binder 120. It
also explains how to set up the Binder 120 for both on-line
(automatic) and off-line (manual) operation. It includes procedures for
the following situations:
•Connecting to a host machine
Use this procedure to connect the Binder 120 to a host machine.
After doing so, the Binder 120 will be in the on-line mode for
automatic binding of books.
•Disconnecting from a host machine
Use this procedure to disconnect the Binder 120 from a host
machine. After doing so, the Binder 120 will be in the stand-
alone mode for manual binding of books.
•Switching to a different host machine
Use this procedure to disconnect the Binder 120 from one host
machine and connect it to a different one. After doing so, the
Binder 120 will remain in the on-line mode for automatic binding
of books.
•Switching from on-line to stand-by mode
Use this procedure to disconnect the Interface Module of the
Binder 120 from the Output Tray of the host machine. After
doing so, the Binder 120 will remain in the on-line configuration,
but will be in the stand-by mode. Both machines can then
operate independently.
•Switching from stand-by to on-line mode
Use this procedure to connect the Interface Module of the Binder
120 to the Output Tray of the host machine. After doing so, the
Binder 120 will be in the on-line mode for automatic binding of
books.

4. Making the books
This chapter provides an overview of books. It also lists and explains
the steps in the book-making process.
Book overview
A book consists of one or more sheets, referred to as a copy set,
bound into a specially designed Xerox cover. The covers are
available in a variety of spine widths ranging from 1/16 inch (1.5 mm)
to 1/2 inch (13 mm). The appropriate spine width for a book
depends on the paper weight and number of sheets being bound.
The number of sheets that can fit into a specified spine width varies
according to the weight of the paper. For 20 lb, 24 lb or 80 gsm
Xerox paper, refer to the Spine Width/Sheet Capacity table in
chapter 8, “Technical data.”
If the Binder 120 detects the use of a non-Xerox cover, a “Please
Feed Set Using a Xerox Cover - Press Reset to Continue.”
message will appear in the Message Display of the Control Panel of
the Binder 120. The Binder 120 will stop processing. You must
perform a jam clearance to remove the copy set and cover from the
Binder 120. See chapter 7, “Problem solving,” for further information
about jam clearance.
The covers are contained in recyclable cardboard cassettes.
Cassettes are packaged in cases of three. Each cassette contains
150 covers with a total of 450 covers per case.
The cassettes are loaded into the Cover Trays of the Binder 120.
Each cassette has a bar code that the Binder 120 reads to
determine the cover type, color, and spine width. This is the
information that appears in the Cover Supply Contents Display of the
Control Panel of the Binder 120.
