Troubleshooting Paper Delivery Problems

Paper Skew

Depending on the cause of the problem, do one of the following:
The side fences in the paper tray are too far apart.
If the side fences are too far apart, the paper may be skewed.
Adjust the side fences to match the paper width.
When you close the paper tray, the side fences may become misaligned due to the weight of the paper.
To prevent this, close the paper tray slowly.
For details about loading paper, see "Loading Paper", About This Machine.
A scrap of paper or some other small fragment is jammed in the paper feed path.
Remove the fragment.
For details about cleaning the paper feed path, see page 113 "Cleaning the Paper Feed Path".
The correct degree of paper arching has not been specified.
Adjust the degree of paper arching at the registration gate.
In the [Machine: Paper Feed/ Output] group on the [Adjustment Settings for Skilled Operators] menu,
change the value in 0303: [Registration Gate: Paper Buckle Amount].
Increase the value for the paper tray in use, and then print the image. If the problem persists even though
the setting has reached its maximum value, try decreasing the setting. If the problem persists even though
you have tried the complete range of settings from minimum to maximum, contact your service
representative.
The skew detection level is too low.
Increase the skew detection level.
In the [Machine: Image Position] group on the [Adjustment Settings for Skilled Operators] menu, select
0105: [Skew Detection Level] and reduce the value.
Reduce the value to increase the detection level.
This will allow the machine to report a paper misfeed and stop printing even for a slight skew.
Paper with a width of 160 mm (6.3 inches) is being used.
To adjust the following settings, pre-register the type of paper in use as a custom paper. For details
about registering custom papers, see "Registering a Custom Paper", Paper Settings.
When prepunched paper is used, see page 176 "Prepunched Paper".
