Power Cord
Use the power cord supplied with your printer.
Plug the power cord directly into a properly grounded electrical outlet. Ensure that each end of the
cord is connected securely. If you do not know if an outlet is grounded, ask an electrician to check
the outlet.
WARNING: To avoid risk of fire or electrical shock, do not use extension cords, power strips, or
power plugs for more than 90 days. When a permanent outlet receptacle cannot be installed,
use only one factory-assembled extension cord of the appropriate gauge for each printer or
multifunction printer. Always adhere to national and local building, fire, and electrical codes
regarding length of cord, conductor size, grounding, and protection.
Do not use a ground adapter plug to connect the printer to an electrical outlet that does not have
a ground connection terminal.
Verify that the printer is plugged into an outlet that is providing the correct voltage and power.
Review the electrical specification of the printer with an electrician if necessary.
Do not place the printer in an area where people can step on the power cord.
Do not place objects on the power cord.
If the power cord becomes frayed or worn, replace it.
To avoid electrical shock and damage to the cord, grasp the plug when unplugging the power cord.
The power cord is attached to the printer as a plug-in device on the back of the printer. If it is necessary
to disconnect all electrical power from the printer, disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.
Emergency Turn Off
If any of the following conditions occur, power off the printer immediately and disconnect the power
cord from the electrical outlet. Contact an authorized Xerox service representative to correct the
problem if:
The equipment emits unusual odors or makes unusual noises.
The power cable is damaged or frayed.
A wall panel circuit breaker, fuse, or other safety device has been tripped.
Liquid is spilled into the printer.
The printer is exposed to water.
Any part of the printer is damaged.

Your attention to the following safety guidelines helps to ensure the continued, safe operation of
your printer.
Operational Guidelines
Do not remove any trays while the printer is printing.
Do not open the doors when the printer is printing.
Do not move the printer while is printing.
Keep hands, hair, neckties, and so on away from the exit and feed rollers.
Covers, which require tools for removal, protect the hazard areas within the printer. Do not remove

Installation and Setup
For reference:
Installation Guide
packaged with your printer.
Online Support Assistant at www.xerox.com/office/VLC400support
Installation and Setup Overview
Before you print, ensure that your computer and the printer are plugged in, powered on, and connected.
Configure the initial settings of the printer, then install the print driver software and utilities on
your computer.
You can connect to your printer directly from your computer using USB, or connect to a network using
an Ethernet cable or wireless connection. Hardware and cabling requirements vary for the different
connection methods. Routers, network hubs and switches, modems, Ethernet cables, and USB cables are
not included with your printer and are purchased separately. Xerox recommends an Ethernet connection
because it is typically faster than a USB connection, and it provides access to the Embedded Web Server.
For more information, refer to the
System Administrator Guide
at www.xerox.com/office/VLC400docs.
Selecting a Location for the Printer
1. Select a dust-free area with temperatures from 1032°C (5090°F), and relative humidity 1085%.
Note: Sudden temperature fluctuations can affect print quality. Rapid heating of a cold room can
cause condensation inside the printer, directly interfering with image transfer.
2. Place the printer on a level, solid, non-vibrating surface with adequate strength to hold the weight
of the printer. The printer must be horizontal with all four feet in solid contact with the surface.
To find the weight for your printer configuration, refer to Weights and Dimension on page 172,
on page 172. Select a location with adequate clearance to access supplies and to provide proper
ventilation. To find the clearance requirements for your printer, refer to Clearance Requirements
on page 173.
3. After positioning the printer, you are ready to connect it to the power source and computer
or network.

Selecting a Connection Method
You can connect the printer to your computer using a USB cable, Ethernet cable, or wireless connection.
The method that you select depends on how your computer is connected to the network. A USB
connection is a direct connection and is the easiest to set up. An Ethernet connection is used to connect
to a network. If you are using a network connection, it is important to understand how your computer is
connected to the network.
Note: Hardware and cabling requirements vary for the different connection methods. Routers, network
hubs, network switches, modems, Ethernet cables, and USB cables are not included with your printer and
must be purchased separately.
USB: If you connect the printer to one computer and do not have a network, use a USB connection.
A USB connection offers fast data speeds, but typically not as fast as a network connection.
Note: To access the Embedded Web Server, a network connection is required.
Network: If your computer is connected to an office network or home network, use an Ethernet
cable to connect the printer to the network. You cannot connect the printer directly to the computer.
A conncetion through a router or network switch is required. An Ethernet network can be used for
one or more computers and supports many printers and systems simultaneously. An Ethernet
connection is typically faster than USB and allows you direct access to the settings of the printer
using the Embedded Web Server.
Wireless Network: If your environment includes a wireless router or wireless access point, you can
connect the printer to the network with a wireless connection. A wireless network connection
provides the same access and services as a wired connection provides. A wireless network
connection is typically faster than USB and allows direct access to the settings of the printer
using the Embedded Web Server.

Paper That Can Damage Your Printer
Some paper and other media types can cause poor output quality, increased paper jams, or damage
your printer. Do not use the following:
Rough or porous paper
Inkjet paper
Non-laser glossy or coated paper
Paper that has been photocopied
Paper that has been folded or wrinkled
Paper with cutouts or perforations
Stapled paper
Envelopes with windows, metal clasps, side seams, or adhesives with release strips
Padded envelopes
Plastic media
Transparencies
CAUTION: The Xerox Warranty, Service Agreement, or Xerox Total Satisfaction Guarantee
does not cover damage caused by using unsupported paper or specialty media. The Xerox
Total Satisfaction Guarantee is available in the United States and Canada. Coverage could
vary outside these areas. Please contact your local representative for details.
Paper Storage Guidelines
Storing your paper and other media properly contributes to optimum print quality.
Store paper in dark, cool, relatively dry locations. Most paper is susceptible to damage from
ultraviolet and visible light. Ultraviolet light, from the sun and fluorescent bulbs, is particularly
damaging to paper.
Reduce the exposure of paper to strong lights for long periods of time.
Maintain constant temperatures and relative humidity.
Avoid storing paper in attics, kitchens, garages, or basements. These spaces are more likely to
collect moisture.
Store paper flat, either on pallets, cartons, shelves, or in cabinets.
Avoid food or drinks in the area where paper is stored or handled.
Do not open sealed packages of paper until you are ready to load them into the printer. Leave
stored paper in the original packaging. The paper wrapper protects the paper from moisture loss
or gain.
Some special media is packaged inside resealable plastic bags. Store the media inside the bag until
you are ready to use it. Keep unused media in the bag and reseal it for protection.

Follow the guidelines for printing on glossy cardstock:
Do not open sealed packages of glossy cardstock until you are ready to load them into the printer.
Leave glossy cardstock in the original wrapper, and leave the packages in the shipping carton until
ready to use.
Remove all other paper from the tray before loading glossy cardstock.
Load only the amount of glossy cardstock you are planning to use. Do not leave glossy cardstock in
the tray when you are finished printing. Replace unused cardstock in the original wrapper and seal.
Rotate stock frequently. Long periods of storage in extreme conditions can cause glossy cardstock to
curl and jam in the printer.
In the print driver software, select the desired glossy cardstock type or select the tray loaded with
the desired paper.

Guidelines for Printing Envelopes
Use only paper envelopes.
Do not use envelopes with windows or metal clasps.
Print quality depends on the quality and construction of the envelopes. If you do not get the desired
results, try another envelope brand.
Maintain constant temperatures and relative humidity.
Store unused envelopes in their packaging to avoid excess moisture and dryness which can affect
print quality and cause wrinkling. Excessive moisture can cause the envelopes to seal before or
during printing.
Remove air bubbles from the envelopes before loading them into the tray by setting a heavy book
on top of them.
In the print driver software, select Envelope as the paper type.
Do not use padded envelopes. Use envelopes that lie flat on a surface.
Do not use envelopes with heat activated glue.
Do not use envelopes with press and seal flaps.

types can cause jams. If supported paper is jamming frequently in one area, clean that area of the
paper path.
The following can cause paper jams:
Selecting the incorrect paper type in the print driver.
Using damaged paper.
Using unsupported paper.
Loading paper incorrectly.
Overfilling the tray.
Adjusting the paper guides improperly.
Most jams can be prevented by following a simple set of rules:
Use only supported paper. For details, refer to Supported Paper on page 98.
Follow proper paper handling and loading techniques.
Always use clean, undamaged paper.
Avoid paper that is curled, torn, moist, creased, or folded.
To separate the sheets before loading into the tray, fan the paper.
Observe the paper tray fill line; never overfill the tray.
Adjust the paper guides in all trays after inserting the paper. A guide that is not properly adjusted
can cause poor print quality, misfeeds, skewed prints, and printer damage.
After loading the tray, at the control panel, select the correct paper type and size.
When printing, select the correct type and size in the print driver.
Store paper in a dry location.
Avoid the following:
Polyester coated paper that is designed especially for inkjet printers.
Paper that is folded, wrinkled, or excessively curled.
Loading more than one type, size, or weight of paper in a tray at the same time.
Overfilling the tray.
Allowing the output tray to overfill.

Environmental Benefits of Duplex Printing
Most Xerox products have duplex printing, also known as 2-sided printing, capability. This enables you
to print on both sides of the paper automatically, and therefore helps to reduce the use of valuable
resources by reducing your paper consumption. The Lot 4 Imaging Equipment agreement requires that
on models greater than or equal to 40 ppm color or greater than or equal to 45 ppm monochrome the
duplex function has been auto enabled, during the setup and driver installation. Some Xerox models
below these speed bands may also be enabled with 2-sided printing settings defaulted on at the time
of install. Continuing to use the duplex function will reduce the environmental impact of your work.
However, should you require simplex/1-sided printing, you may change the print settings in the
print driver.
Paper Types
This product can be used to print on both recycled and virgin paper, approved to an environmental
stewardship scheme, which complies with EN12281 or a similar quality standard. Lighter weight paper
(60 g/m²), which contains less raw material and thus save resources per print, may be used in certain
applications. We encourage you to check if this is suitable for your printing needs.
ENERGY STAR
The ENERGY STAR program is a voluntary scheme to promote the development and
purchase of energy efficient models, which help to reduce environmental impact.
Details on the ENERGY
STAR program and models qualified to ENERGY STAR can be
found at the following website:
www.energystar.gov/index.cfm?fuseaction=find_a_product.showProductGroup&pgw_

Power Consumption and Activation Time
The amount of electricity that a device consumes depends on the way the device is used. This device is
designed and configured to enable you to reduce your electricity usage.
Power Saver modes are enabled on your device to reduce energy consumption. After the last print, the
device transitions to Ready mode. In this mode, the device can print again immediately. If the device is
not used for a specified period, the device transitions to Low Power mode, then to Sleep mode. In these
modes, to enable reduced-power consumption, only essential functions remain active. The device takes
longer to produce the first print after it exits the Power Saver modes than it takes to print in Ready
mode. This delay is the result of the system waking up and is typical of most imaging devices on
the market.
