and 12 pt. and 14 pt. papers should be run in the 221 – 300 gsm range. Since many materials over
14 pts. of thickness will exceed the image transfer and feeding / transport capabilities of the
DocuColor 8000AP / 8000 / 7000AP / 7000 print engine, it is recommended to purchase small
quantities to ensure your expectations are met, prior to committing to large runs.
C1S papers are commonly used in high-quality applications with high toner coverage on the coated
side. Image quality on the coated side will be very good; however, due to the inherent properties of
the paper, the second side will exhibit very different print quality. If superior image quality is required
for both sides, Xerox Digital Color Elite / Select Gloss and Silk (C2S) products are recommended.
Doc uCards
A DocuCard is a 7 mil (7/1000 inch) card affixed to a letter size (8.5”x11” or A4) carrier sheet, usually
a 90 lb. Index stock, 60# Cover stock or an 80# Text stock. The card is generally adhered to an
embossed area at the bottom of the carrier sheet.
DocuCards should be run in batches of 50 sheets. If more than 50 sheets are loaded at a time, the
stack may tilt or tip which may lead to an increase in misfeeds and feeding faults. Additional cards
(up to 200) can be fed short edge first if a Tiltatron is installed. Tiltatrons can be purchased via
Customized Application Services at 585-227-5414. Currently, 1-up and 2-up configurations are
supported, as well as some customized applications. For more information contact your Xerox Supply
Account Manager.
Doc uMagnet s
DocuMagnet is a unique application consisting of a 12 mil, 2.125” x 3.375” magnetized ID card
integrated into an 8.5” x 11” carrier sheet specifically designed for use in some DocuColor
equipment.
DocuMagnets should be run in batches of no more than 50 sheets in the Short Edge Feed orientation
with cards face-up and towards the trailing edge. If more than 50 sheets are loaded at a time, the
stack may tilt or tip which may lead to an increase in misfeeds and feeding faults. Additional cards
(up to 100) can be fed short edge first if a Tiltatron is installed. Tiltatrons can be purchased via
Customized Application Services at 585-227-5414. Duplex printing is not currently recommended.
For best results, avoid printing on the carrier sheet in the area around the card (approximately 3.5”
from the bottom of the sheet).
DuraPaper (Teslin®-lik e Mat erials)
DuraPaper and other Teslin-like materials are synthetic single layer sheets that print and feel like
paper yet are durable and waterproof like plastic. They usually have some tear and abrasion
resistance, making them an ideal printing choice for demanding uses such as tags, menus, labels
and other "harsh environment" applications. They also offer excellent bond strength with laminating
film.
Customers can run DuraPaper and other Teslin-like materials from any tray. The recommended
weight setting is 221-300 gsm for optimum transfer and fusing. In this weight range, automatic
