All Stocks Rated Speed (ASRS)
The All Stocks Rated Speed (ASRS) feature eliminates the slower speeds created by
heavier weight stocks. With ASRS, the speed of the press is governed by the size of the
stock only and not by its weight. This means that all stock weights up to 350 gsm for a
given sheet size will run at the rated speed (the top speed) for that stock size.
Automated Color Quality System (ACQS)
The Automated Color Quality System (ACQS) is an advanced color management
technology that transfers the complex decisions about color maintenance from operators
to an automated system. ACQS automates the printing and measuring of calibration
charts and then calculates and makes precise adjustments to color tables based on the
results.
Note
The ACQS suite is available only with the external Xerox EX 80 Print Server Powered by
Fiery; it is not available with the Xerox EX-i 80 Print Server Powered by Fiery.
ACQS takes the variability out of the color equation by incorporating standardized color
measurements using the Inline Spectrophotometer (on the Interface Cooling Module)
to calibrate color on the press as well as generating accurate destination profiles for
different stocks.
Procedures are automated in that they eliminate the need for an operator to manually
scan target sheets using an external spectrophotometer. The operator must initiate the
procedure at the print server, but all target sheets are then generated and scanned
automatically, and all measurements, calculations, and corrections are performed
automatically.
Inline Spectrophotometer (ILS)
The Inline Spectrophotometer (ILS) is housed in the Interface Cooling Module. The ILS
enables the Automated Color Quality Suite, which automates the process of ensuring
stable and accurate color from job to job, by eliminating the need for operators to use
a hand-held spectrophotometer during print server calibration. It also facilitates the
creation of custom destination profiles for each stock on which the press prints.
With the ILS is strategically placed within the paper path, automated processes like
measurements for calibration and destination profiling are quick to perform and require
less down-time for the press. Working together, the ACQS software and the ILS hardware
gives accurate color faster, and provides more stable color over time.
Besides the Inline Spectrophotometer (ILS), the Interface Cooling Module contains
additional cooling to support the higher speeds of the press when running at higher
speeds, and a Decurler to ensure flat sheets for finishing.
