5 Operational Considerations
Image Quality Expectations
Image Quality
•
The WorkCentre 5900 series is designed to produce consistent
uniform monochrome prints and copies in the product’s specified
Average Monthly Print Volume range.
•
The WorkCentre 5900 series is designed to produce a uniform
image. Image Quality is subjective and can be impacted by lighting,
and is strongly influenced by paper (consult the Recommended
Materials List).
Print Expectations
Duplex (2-sided) Copying / Printing
•
The WorkCentre 5945/5955 can automatically perform two-sided
(duplex) copying or printing on media size up to 11 x 17 (A3 ) and
non coated 216 gsm paper or coated 169gsm paper.
•
Full duplex print productivity is achieved except when paper exits to
the top center tray.
Image-to-Paper Registration
•
Printing registration specifications for 8.5 x 11” (A4) size media are
±1.5 mm (side 1), ±1.9 mm (side 2) along the lead edge and
±2.0mm (side 1), ±2.4mm (side 2) mm along the side edge from
Trays 1-4. Lead Edge is ±2.2 mm and Side edge ±3.0 mm for
bypass tray.
•
Skew registration specification from side to side feeding for 8.5 x 11”
(A4) size media from Tray 1-4 is ±3 mm on simplex side and ±4 mm
on duplex side. Bypass tray skew is ±4 mm.
USB Print
•
USB Media Print enables walk-up users to print “Print-Ready” files
(PDF, XPS, TIFF, JPEG, TXT) files directly from most standard
(FAT-32 formatted) USB Thumb Drives.
•
Files are sent directly from the USB drive to the print controller.
•
Windows 8 Certified USB drives are not supported
Power On time
•
Power on time from cold-boot to the display of the main All services
screen may take three minutes. Users will notice an additional 5-8
sec delay when they first access a service. Subsequent entries into
that service (including after exiting power saver) will not incur any
additional delay. This is designed to improve the availability of the
first screen as the subsequent services are loaded when first
accessed.
Print Around
•
The Print Around feature holds a job needing additional resources
(such as a different paper size) and prints the next job in queue.
This function allows the device to keep working, while making sure
jobs are printed correctly.
Apple AirPrint
•
If AirPrint is not enabled on this product, download the install
instructions and airPrintInstall.dlm from the support and driver page
for your product at xerox.com and follow the instructions. AirPrint-
enabled ConnectKey devices work with iPad (all models), iPhone
(3GS or later), and iPod touch (3rd generation or later), running the
latest version of iOS. For printing from a Mac, the device must be
running Mac OS X 10.7 or later to support AirPrint. The device
submitting the AirPrint job must be on the same subnet as the
printer. To allow devices to print from different subnets, configure
your network to pass multicast DNS traffic across subnets.
Network Connectivity Expectations
USB Wireless Network Adapter
•
Your Xerox Device can be equipped with an optional Xerox USB
802.11b/g/n (2.4GHz) Wireless Adapter to enable WiFi connectivity.
When utilizing this Xerox Device over WiFi, it is important to
understand the performance impacts that may result from WiFi
technology. Compared to a wired Ethernet connection, WiFi
performance varies significantly due to many factors that are specific
to wireless technology.
•
Some of these factors include: WiFi LAN Overhead, Proximity to
Access Point (AP) and Physical Obstacles (i.e. Signal Strength),
Network usage / AP Loading and Radio Frequency (RF)
interference.
•

WiFi Performance Primer
Scanning Expectations
•
The WorkCentre 5945/5955 supports scan to network folder, Scan
to USB, Scan to Mailbox, Scan to Home and Scan to email
functionality as standard.
Scan Resolution
•
The maximum image scan resolution is 600 dpi. The default scan
resolution is set to 200dpi.
•
Note: Several resolution settings are selectable via the 8.5 inch User
Interface touch panel. Lower resolutions will result in files that are
smaller in size thereby reducing network traffic.
−
When scanning the OCR processing, image compression, file
formatting and file transfer operations all continue after the job
has completed scanning by the scanner.
−
Heavy print usage may delay the processing of scan jobs.
Security Expectations
Xerox Smart Card, Kerberos, and FIPS140-3 support includes:
•
CAC , PIV, .NET cards, S/MIME- encrypted email to self and others
via LDAP or Address Book. Email signing.
•
FIPS 140-2 encryption (SSL only)
•
FIPS 140-2 encryption (Disk & IPsec) only for IPv4
McAfee Embedded Control
•
McAfee
®
Built-in Enhanced Security is the Standard offering on the
WorkCentre 5900 series that can detect and prevent unauthorized
read-modify-write of files by unauthorized persons/systems. Built-in
security prevents unauthorized reading, writing, adding of any of the
systems protected files & directories. Any unauthorized attempt to
modify these protected filed are recorded to the audit log on the
device and can be setup to send email alerts thru CWIS,
Centreware Web, Xerox Device Manager, or McAfee ePolicy
Orchestrator.
•
Optional purchasable McAfee
®
Integrity Control provides the same
protections as Embedded Security with some key additions.
−
Prevents new files from being EXECUTED from ANY location via
untrusted means. By utilizing whitelisting technology from
McAfee the multi-function device prevents a targeted attack from
executing an unauthorized and possibly malicious program such
as malware.
−
Prevents WRITING of protected executable files. Integrity
Control prevents the malicious overwrite of operating system thru
executables. File Inventory is hashed to prevent malicious
changing of it.
Cisco TrustSec Identity Services Integration
®
•
Automatically tracks new devices (via Profiler with Advanced
license) connecting to the network
•
"Firewall" the printer to prevent general access to restricted printers
•
Automatically provision and grant printers appropriate network
access to prevent impersonation & inappropriate access
•
Single inventory for printer management, access and location-aware
printer management
