SUBJECT: PICKOFF PAWL SPRING
GENERAL:
!
The tension of the Pickoff Pawl Spring has been increased to prevent misfeeds (Accordion / Z-Fold Jams)
within the Fusing Unit. The following part update is being issued for all A250 Parts Catalogs. Please update
your Parts Catalogs with the following information.
OLD PART NO.

G0294143
!
NOTE 1: Bulletins A250/B001 – 002, 007, 011, 014, 015 and 018 reference modifications to the Fusing Unit
but these modifications do not address jamming issues. Please reference these bulletins only if
you are experiencing the issues addressed by these bulletins.
!
NOTE 2: Also Bulletin A250/B001 – 022 reference a modification to the Registration Feeler. If the
Registration Feeler "hangs up", it causes a timing issue and the paper will feed just out of the
Fusing Unit. Although this looks like a jam in the Fusing Unit, it is not. The paper is also not
"Accordion / Z-Folded" as is the symptom with the Pickoff Pawl Spring issue.
