The printer is controlled by numerous settings whose values
are pre-set at the factory. These values are called
factory
settings
.
If the factory settings do not suit the needs of your printing
environment, you can select a new setting in either of two
ways:

Sharing the Printer
Chapter 1: Introduction
1-5
Particular care must be taken when changing settings for a
printer being shared by users such as those on a local area
network (LAN). When the printer is shared, settings must
accommodate the
common
needs of users.
Considerations for a networked environment include the
following:
Downloading fonts and macros by individual users may
consume printer memory. The sharing of downloaded
fonts must be coordinated. See
Chapter 4: Using Fonts
,
“Downloading Fonts” (page 4-12)
.
Switching between PCL and PostScript may purge
downloaded data. See
Chapter 3: Using the Control
Panel
,
State Saving
(page 3-28) for PCL and
State Saving
(page 3-37) for PostScript.
Changing settings for
Jam Recovery
,
Page Protection
,
State Saving
, or
Resolution
affect memory utilization. See
Chapter 3: Using the Control Panel
,
“Printer Settings that
Affect Memory” (page 3-69)
.
The type of interface. (See page 3-38,
Appendix A
, and
Appendix C
.)
Auto Job End
should be
On
. (See page 3-44, page 3-48,
page 3-54, page 3-58.)
Auto Continue
should be
On
. (See page 3-61.)
LANs generally require a system or network administrator, a
person who orchestrates the use of the network. Refer to the
installation guide packaged with your network option for
more information.

Memory Considerations
1-6
4520/4520mp User’s Guide
In today’s printing environments, technologies have
advanced greatly but so have their corresponding memory
requirements. To make use of specialized graphics features,
fonts, and other applications on the market today, you may
find it necessary to increase memory size.
From the factory, the 4520 is equipped with 4 MB of resident
base memory. The 4520mp is equipped with 4 MB of resident
base memory plus one 4 MB SIMM (single in-line memory
module) for a total of 8 MB.
Maximum memory capacity is 52 MB.
When is more memory needed?
You receive out-of-memory error messages when
printing. See
Chapter 3: Using the Control Panel
,
“Printer
Settings that Affect Memory” (page 3-69)
for more
information on how certain printer settings may affect
memory usage and performance. See also
“Minimum
Memory Requirements” (page 3-72)
.
You determine that expanded capability for additional
fonts, more complex documents, graphics, or higher
resolution is needed. See
Chapter 4: Using Fonts
,
“Downloading Fonts” (page 4-12)
for more information on
how fonts affect memory usage.
How is more memory added?
Install a SIMM (single in-line memory module). SIMMs
are small circuit boards with memory chips that can be
installed on the printer controller board. See
Chapter 5: Adding Printer Options
for more information
on SIMM installation.
Installing the 125 MB hard disk option does not add memory
to the printer.

Paper input sources are the slots or openings where paper
enters the printer. As shown in Figure 2.1, the 4520/4520mp
printers have
four
paper input sources: three on the front and
one on the back.

Paper Output
Chapter 2: Handling Paper
2-5
As shown in Figure 2.2, printed output is delivered face down
to the
top output tray
and face up to the
front output tray
.
Output capacity on top is up to 500 sheets of standard weight
paper and up to 250 sheets on the front.
Figure 2.2 Output trays
The front output tray must be removed to deliver printed
output to the top tray. Whenever the front tray is installed,
output is delivered to it.
For optimum performance, deliver light weight paper
(60 gsm/16 lbs.) and special media (transparencies, label
stock, and envelopes) to the
front
output tray.
Depending on paper weight, you may find the front output
tray holds fewer than 250 sheets. Paper jams may occur if
output capacity is exceeded.

4520/4520mp User’s Guide
Factors such as embossing, special edges, and general paper
quality affect paper handling.
Paper
weight
specifications include the following:
Upper, middle, and lower trays support paper weights of
60 gsm (16 lb)
to
90 gsm (24 lb)
.
Single-sheet Bypass Feeder (SBF) supports paper weights
of
60 gsm (16 lb)
to
120 gsm (32 lb)
.
For optimum printer performance, it is recommended that you
use paper made for laser printers and transparency film made
for Xerox laser printers and copiers.
The recommended weight of envelope paper should not
exceed 90 gms (24 lb) or jamming may result. Envelopes
should lay flat. Do not use envelopes that are wrinkled,
nicked, or damaged.
In areas of high humidity, store partially used packages of
envelopes in a sealed plastic bag. Failure to do so may cause
excessive print jams and print quality problems.
Do not use envelopes having clasps, snaps, windows, or
synthetic materials. Severe damage to your printer may occur.

does not use—the Xerox printer driver, some of these paper
sizes may not be available for your use. Refer to the
