the drive capstan while the scanner is
moving? Is the tension of the cable alter-
nately too slack and too tight?
Does the scanner move smoothly when it
is pushed gently by hand?
Is the gear of the scanner drive system
missing?
Does the blurring occur at intervals of
approx. 95mm?
Does the blurring occur at intervals of
approx. 63mm?
Check
Are the dark lines always in the same posi-
tion when DIRECT copies are made?
Does the scanning lamp flicker when the
scanner is moving forward?
Is there any difference in the broad dark
lines on a black copy compared with on a
color copy?
Does the position of the dark lines change
on a REDUCTION copy as compared with
a DIRECT copy?
