Noise Reduction
The composite material of the guide plate [1] has been changed. High temperature inside the machine
was warping the guide plate material and causing the guide to hit the stay and make noise when it was
opening and closing during paper feed. (Original PET KANEKA 5402SE was replaced with PC GE
LGK3020.)
Also, the shape of the guide plate [1] has been modified slightly to eliminate noise at [2] when the unit is
removed and installed.
