The Breakage Of Copy Tray Hooks Due To An Overloading Of Output Paper (Copy Tray-Q1/R1/R2 ) - Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE 8500 series Troubleshooting Manual

The breakage of copy tray hooks due to an overloading of output
paper (Copy Tray-Q1/R1/R2 )
[Symptom]
The copy tray hooks (claws) [1] may break on an engine whose serial number is earlier than the following countermeasure cut-
in serial numbers in factory.
[Cause]
An overloading of output paper overcomes the designed strength of copy tray, and this induces the above mentioned symptom.
The said symptom would not occur in the use where the stack volume in the tray is within the specification.
[Reference] The specifications of number of sheets stacked in the copy tray for each basis weight for paper is as per the followings:
2
- 80 g/m or less: 250 sheets (50 for long strips)
2
-128 g/m 120 sheets (30 for long length papers)
2
-105 g/m 190 sheets
2
-220 g/m 90 sheets
2
-256 g/m 70 sheets
2
-300 g/m 60 sheets (20 for long length papers)
[Service work]
When the aforementioned symptom has occurred, replace the copy tray 1 [1] with new type which changed shape of the hooks
(claws) and enhanced strength against weight.
