2New Capabilities in
Version 10.0
Software
The following is a list of new capabilities enabled with version 10.0 software:
•Availability of the new Xerox Nuvera 200/288 MX Perfecting Production System
configurations. These are dual engine configurations, similar to the Xerox Nuvera®
200/288 EA Perfecting Production System, but with support for MICR printing. These
systems operate at speeds up to 200/288 impressions per minute in the duplex mode
(100/144 IPM simplex), and with 11x17 / A3 speeds of up to 120/144 duplex impressions
per minute. The primary fit for the system is a MICR-capable printing environment
running high print volumes with a high percentage of duplex pages.
•Enablement of easier customer maintenance actions via ‘wizards’, in support of the ‘Xerox
Productivity Plus Basic’ program.
•Added a generic Icon for DFA devices onto the Machine graph. This will assist in
differentiating faults between DFA devices and BFM/DS3500 finishers. When faults occur
on a DFA device, the Fault Icon will appear above the DFA Icon instead of above the
BFM/DS3500.
•The new DS3500 is a stacking device that also enables other inline finishing by providing
document transport capability and full DFA support to DFA compliant finishing devices.
•Profiles for new DFA devices introduced after a software release can now be downloaded
to connected machines. If a user purchases a new DFA device, the profile is already loaded
on the machine enabling immediate use of the new device.
•Introduced an Alternating Set Mode for machines with dual stackers (Dual BFM). This
mode will alternate the destination of the sets of the job between the 2 stackers,
eliminating the wait times for the sets to go to the stacker. This mode is most beneficial
for small sets to dual BFM by greatly increasing productivity of these types of jobs.

3Release Issues
Issues resolved
The following is a list of Nuvera 9.1 issues that have been resolved and no longer apply to
Xerox Nuvera 10.0 systems:
CQ#45904 Paper Tray Disappears from Job Properties Stock List
CQ#45980 User not Prompted to “Empty All Stackers”
Hints and Tips Guide 3-1

Release Issues Xerox Nuvera
New issues in this release for DS3500
CQ#46637 “Close top cover” status does not consistently
disappear after closing the top cover
Description
The Stacker Module “Close Top Cover” status message is not alwaysgoing away when you
close the top cover due to possible stray sheets in area 1-6.
Workaround
If the Stacker Module “Close Top Cover” status message is not going away when you close the
top cover, then please check Areas 1-6 for any stray sheets and remove them. If there are any
stray sheets the Stacker Module will not go ready and will not lower the “Close Top Cover”
status message.
CQ#46832 Stacker state changes incorrectly
Description
The DS3500 changes its stacker state incorrectly when the front door is closed or the stack tray
is lowered and empty.
Workaround
If the unload button is pressed when the DS3500 stacker tray is empty, the try will go to the
bottom position and the system will not be able to print.
To re-enable the ability to print, open and close the front door of the DS3500.
CQ#446828 “Run until full” option conflicts with Dual-DS3500’s
Description
If the “Run until full” option is enabled via the Stacker Limits window on a dual DS3500
system, the situation may arise where an auto switch between each DS3500 does not happen.
Instead, the machine goes into a continuous up/down state cycle.
Workaround
Set the stack limit tot eh number of sheets it takes to make a stack 13 inches (330 mm) high.
For example, if running 20# (75 gsm) bond, 3200 sheets are required to make a stack 13
inches (330 mm) in height. In this case, the stacker limit should be changed from the default
3500 sheets to 3200 sheets.
If the continuous up/down cycle state cycle, open the top cover of either DS3500 for at least
10 seconds and close the top cover.

Xerox Nuvera Release Issues
Issues remaining from previous release
CQ#43933 Unable to Eject CD Tray
Description
Customer is unable to eject CD tray from GUI or CD-ROM button and unable to read CD. This
stops working after the first successful eject.

programming, except for Stock Size, in the pop-up confirmation window is set to default.
Workaround
If you are using named stock or stock weight different than the queue default weight then it is
recommended that you set [System Preferences -> Stocks and Trays -> Tray Confirmation] to
‘None’. If you do not, then each time the tray confirmation pop-up window opens all the
values will be set to the queue default values.

can leave it set to APS.

Xerox Nuvera Release Issues
CQ#44186 Recognizing Indication of Successfully Proofed Job
Description
When a job is successfully proofed, there appears to be no indication that it has been proofed.
Workaround
Ensure the “Proof/Review Status” column is in the visible portion of the table. This column is
identified by a computer icon in the header. If the column is at the end of the table (left side),
move it to the beginning (right side). A successfully proofed job will have an icon appear in this
column that looks like a green check mark over a document.
