7 Using the Touch Screen
Figure 11: The Touch Screen
The copier/printer defaults to the Basic Copying 
tab, as illustrated in Figure 11. Touch the visible 
part of the tab to access the features for Added 
Features, Image Quality, Output Formats, or Job 
Assembly.
NOTE:The features available in each tab are 
assigned by your System Administrator  using the 
Tools mode. Therefore, the features in the tabs on 
your copier/printer may vary from the screen 
samples shown in this manual.
Touch the desired button or icon to select a 
feature. The selected button is highlighted.
Selecting some of the feature buttons causes 
another screen to display. These screens contain 
additional information and selections for that 
feature. Selecting some of the options on these 
screens displays additional detail screens.

Audio tones
The copier/printer provides three types of audio 
tones to assist the operator in selecting features 
and functions. The System Administrator can 
adjust the volume of some of the audio tones 
using Tools mode.
•When a selection is made, the copier/printer 
beeps once when a button is touched to 
acknowledge the input.
•A triple beep tone sounds when a conflict 
occurs between the selections already made 
and the one being attempted. A triple beep 
also occurs when a feature is not available.
•The attention tone consists of a series of 
longer beeps. The attention tone sounds 
when the copier/printer warm-up cycle is 
complete.

Document Feeder and Document Glass
Duplex Automatic Document Feeder (DADF)
The Duplex Automatic Document Feeder (DADF), 
Figure 12, acts like a Document Cover by 
shielding the Scanner from external light.
This is especially important when you select the 
Auto Colour option. The copier/printer does not 
operate with the Duplex Automatic Document 
Feeder open when the Auto Colour option is 
selected.
KEY POINT:
•Do not use excessive force to press down on 
the Duplex Automatic Document Feeder.
•If the Duplex Automatic Document Feeder 
must be open during the scanning, the Output 
Colour feature cannot be set to Auto Colour. 
You must make a different selection.
After you place documents face up in the Duplex 
Automatic Document Feeder, ensure that the 
paper guide is against the document, and press 
the Start button to begin the scan operation.

7 Document Glass
After you have selected the desired features, you 
should place the original document onto the 
Document Glass. Raise the Duplex Automatic 
Document Feeder and place (register) the 
document in the correct orientation on the 
Document Glass for long edge feed or short edge 
feed, as illustrated in Figure 13.
NOTE:You can set the orientation on a number of 
user screens or the System Administrator can 
change the default orientation in Tools Mode.
The document must be face down and in the 
upper-left corner of the Document Glass.
Lower the Duplex Automatic Document Feeder 
and press the Start button to begin the scan 
operation.
KEY POINT:
•When a document is scanned short edge first, 
but the requested paper tray holds paper so it 
will print long edge first, the Auto Rotation 
feature will cause a document to be rotated 
90°
. If the output is to be 2-sided, the second 
side will be rotated 270°
 to maintain head-to-
head output. 
•The maximum scanned image size is 11 x 17 
inches or A3. To copy an image of this size 
onto 12 x 17.7 inch or SRA3 paper, you must  
select 102%
 enlargement.

Auto Image Rotation
The DocuColor 12 offers an automatic rotation 
feature for A4 original documents input from both 
the Duplex Automatic Document Feeder and the 
Document Glass.
If the copier/printer detects that the image area of 
a document that is being scanned short edge first 
will not fit on the paper, it will automatically rotate 
the image 90°
 to ensure that the entire image 
appears on the output (long edge first).
Therefore, if you are scanning an A4 original 
document short edge feed and you have 
requested A4 long edge feed paper, the image will 
be rotated 90°
 to provide the entire image on the 
output.
If you request 2 Sided output, Side 1 will be 
rotated 90° 
and Side 2 will be rotated 270°
 to 
ensure head-to-head output.
KEY POINT:Auto Rotation is not performed for 
documents that are scanned long edge first.
To disable this feature, contact your Xerox Service 
Representative.

As illustrated in Figure 16, the paper is fed from 
the selected paper tray (1-5) to the Paper 
Transport rollers.
The Paper Transport rollers deliver the paper to 
the Preregistration Area (6) in the Paper Path 
Module.
From the Preregistration Area, the paper is 
registered onto the Transfer Belt (7), and the 
image is transferred.
The paper proceeds to the Post Transfer Area and 
into the Fuser (8), where the image is fixed to the 
paper permanently.
From the Fuser, the paper passes either through 
the Post Fuser Area and into the Sorter/Mailbox 
(9) or into the duplex path (10a, 10b, 10c). Figure 16: Paper Path

7 Output delivery
Output is delivered differently, depending on the 
configuration of your system and on the job 
options you choose.
If you use the Document Glass to input the original 
document, the requested number of copies will be 
delivered, face up, to the Output Tray or Offset 
Catch Tray on the right side of the copier/printer.
If you use the Duplex Automatic Document 
Feeder to input the original document, the output 
will be delivered in one of the following ways. (The 
example uses a three-page job.)
•Basic, single-copy output is delivered face 
down in 1, 2, 3 order.
•Multiple-copy output is delivered to the Output 
Tray face up with copies of the first page on 
the bottom and the last page on top, as, for 
example, in 3/3/3, 2/2/2, 1/1/1 order.
•For a multiple-copy job in a configuration with 
a Sorter/Mailbox, one set of output is 
delivered, face down, to each of three 
separate bins in 1, 2, 3 order.
