Preventing Fuser Damage - Xerox 700 Digital Color Press User Manual

Problem Solving
Multisheet Feeds from Bypass: Fan the paper stack before loading it into the Bypass tray to prevent multisheet
feeds. If this problem persists, replace paper with a fresh ream.
Running "Long Grain" Heavyweight 1 or Coated 1 papers:
• 17 inch/431.8 mm or larger Heavyweight 1/Coated 1 papers (105–176 gsm) may sometimes be cut "Long
Grain." HeavyWeight 1/Coated 1 papers cut this way will be nearly as stiff as HeavyWeight 2 papers, and
will likely jam if fed in the HeavyWeight 1 or Coated 1 modes because they will be fed face-up into the
inverter.
• Looking at the paper size on the ream wrapper can identify Long Grain paper. The second number in the
size indicates the grain direction. For example 11 x 17 in./A3 indicates the grain is in the 17 inch/431.8
mm direction. This paper is Long Grain. 17 x 11 in./A3 indicates the grain is in the 11 inch/279.4 mm
direction. This paper is Short Grain.
• HeavyWeight 1 or Coated 1 Papers labeled 11 x 17 in./A3, 12 x 18 in./304.8 x 457.2 mm, 13 x 19 in./330.2
x 482.6mm, etc. are Long Grain and should be fed in HeavyWight2/Coated 2 mode. If your paper is not
supplied with a wrapper, check with your paper supplier about the grain direction.

Preventing Fuser Damage

1. To avoid 11 in./279.4 mm lines and wear marks, you may require the use of two Fusers – one when running 8. 5x
11 in./A4 stock, and the other when running 12 x 18 in./304.8 x 457.2 mm or larger stock. This is especially true
for the Graphic Arts people.
2. Image quality defects such as marks or spots will occur every 110 mm/4.3 in. on the prints if the Fuser roll is
damaged. Defects which occur every 98 mm/3.89 in. indicate a damaged Fuser belt.
