Xerox Nuvera Selecting stock
Paper Guide 1-3
The Stock Library and Media Compatibility Guide
The Stock Library contains the paper-related information that is maintained by the system
operator at the system interface.
Each stock in the Stock Library has a set of stock settings that describe the paper to the system.
The attributes allow you to print a job with multiple stocks. The Xerox Nuvera uses the attribute
information to make internal adjustments throughout the printer on a sheet-by-sheet basis.
In the Stock Library, the preloaded stocks contain the Xerox recommended settings for each
stock. If custom stocks are added to the Stock Library, the stock attribute information must be
accurate to prevent image quality and paper handling problems. When image quality and/or
paper handling problems occur, check the stock settings. You can check the paper packaging to
be sure the stock attributes are correct.
The operator assigns stocks from the Stock Library to individual paper trays, which makes the
stock information available to each system module (feeders, print engine, stackers). The
modules can then adjust their settings for optimum performance as needed.
The Media Compatibility Guide is a list of stocks that have been approved by Xerox for use with
the Xerox Nuvera.

Note
If you wish to run a stock that is not on the Media Compatibility Guide, test a small amount
before making a large purchase.
