Overview
If an exact match is found, the print job continues.
If an exact match is not found, the programmer can specify in 
the job for the printer to do one of the following:
Stop printing the job and print an error sheet.
Print the data on an oversized sheet.
If you encounter any problems related to paper sizing, contact 
your lead operator or Xerox service representative.
Long and short edge feeding
To feed through the printer, the leading edge of the paper must be 
at least 10 inches long. Therefore, the following standard sizes of 
paper must be loaded so that sheets feed long edge first: 
7 by 10 inch
B5
A4
US Letter
B4
US Legal
The following papers, which have long edges greater than 14.33 
inches / 364 mm must feed short edge first: 
A3
US Ledger or US Tabloid
NOTE: JIS B4 can be fed either long edge or short edge first.
Paper width and throughput speed (LCDS printing only)
The width of the paper you use for your LCDS print job is directly 
related to the rate at which the printer can print the job. The rate at 
which a job prints is called the “throughput speed” and is 
measured in pages per minute (ppm).
NOTE: “Pages per minute” actually means “impressions per 
minute,” referring to one side of a printed sheet.
A pitch is the amount of time the printer takes to image a page on 
the photoreceptor belt. The term “pitch mode” refers to the number 
of pitches that can occur during one complete photoreceptor 
revolution. The pitch mode in which a specific job prints is based 
on the paper size used for that job. 
The following table lists the pitch mode boundary values, paper 
widths, and related printing speeds for the system. The chart
