1-4 Troubleshooting 1-4-1 Paper misfeed detection (1) Paper misfeed indication When paper jams, the machine immediately stops operation and the occurrence of a paper jam is indicated on the opera- tion panel. To remove the jammed paper, lower the process table. To reset the paper misfeed detection, detach and refit the process table to turn the tray open/close switch off and on.
(3) Paper misfeeds Problem Causes/check procedures Corrective measures A piece of paper torn from Check visually and remove it, if any. A paper jam in built- copy paper is caught in finisher is indicated around the paper conveying as soon as the main switch.
1-4-2 Self-diagnosis (1) Self-diagnostic function This unit is equipped with a self-diagnostic function. When a problem is detected, copying is disabled and the problem dis- played as a code consisting of C followed by a number, indicating the nature of the problem. A message is also displayed requesting the user to call for service.

1-5 Assembly and Disassembly 1-5-1 Precautions for assembly and disassembly (1) Precautions Before starting disassembly the finisher, press the Power key on the operation panel to off. Make sure that the Power indi- cator and the Memory indicator are off before turning off the main power switch. And then unplug the power cable from the wall outlet.
(2) Adjusting the positions of the front side registration cursor, rear side registration cursor and trailing edge registration cursor (reference) Perform the following adjustment if paper registration is poor or stapling is made outside the specified area. Procedure Start Staple Make a test copy 5 ±...
(3) Cleaning the staple During periodic maintenance, remove all the staples remaining inside the machine due to failure of stapling. Procedure 1. Open the front and left covers of the Staple cover machine. 2. Open the staple cover and then remove the staple cartridge.
(4) Adjusting the pressure of curl eliminator mechanism Increase the pressure of the curl eliminator mechanism to reduce upward curling of paper stacked on the process table if a paper jam occurs when batch ejection is performed because of strong upward curling. Procedure 1.
2-1 Mechanical construction 2-1-1 Construction of each section The paper conveying section consists of the components shown in Figure 2-1-1. It switches the path for the paper con- veyed from the machine in sort mode. Also the paper conveying section contains a curl eliminator mechanism, which reduces curling of paper with curl eliminator rollers.
(1) Paper conveying operation in sort mode In the sort mode, the feedshift solenoid (FSSOL) turns on and the feedshift guide of the machine operates to switch the paper path to the paper conveying unit. After curling of the conveyed paper is eliminated by the curl eliminator rollers, the paper is conveyed to the process table by the feedshift roller.
2-1-2 Process table section The process table section consists of the components shown in Figure 2-1-4. It stores and evens up the paper conveyed from the paper conveying section and returns the stack of paper to the paper conveying section. Rear side registration cursor Process table...
(1) Paper registration on the process table In sort mode, the front and rear side registration cursors move to the size of the paper used to even up the sides of the stack of paper and the trailing edge registration cursor shifts the paper to the paper conveying section. In staple-sort mode, the front and rear side registration cursors even up the sides of the stack of paper and shift the stack toward the machine front, and then the trailing edge registration cursor shifts the stack to the stapling position.
2-1-3 Stapler section In staple-sort mode, paper stocked on the process table is stapled by the stapler. The stapler motor (STM) drives the stapler cam via the stapler drive gear to staple paper. Stapler drive gear Stapler motor Stapler self-priming sensor Stapler cam Stapler cam Figure 2-1-7 Stapler section...
