Evaluate your print output for paper curl
Before using a specific Decurler Profile, evaluate your output for
paper curl and whether or not you need to use a Decurler Profile
by performing the following steps.
1.
Determine if Xerox has tested your paper type and weight
by going to the
www.xerox.com
web site and referring to
the latest
Recommended Materials List
(RML) for your
digital press.
2.
Run a set of 10-15 prints using the system default settings
for the Decurler option on the Tray Properties window.
3.
Retrieve your output prints from the digital press exit area.
4.
Check your output prints for paper curl; determine if they are
curled upward (“cupped”) or curled downward (“bridged”).
TIP:
The amount of curl on the output paper is affected by paper
properties (weight, coating) and the amount of graphics and text
on the paper.
