6.3 PAPER FEED SECTION
6.3.1 PAPER SEPARATION PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT
Purpose:
To ensure that the friction pad exerts sufficient pressure for smooth printing paper
separation.
NOTE: As the default, the adjusting screw [A] is set at the 2nd position from the
top. The amount of separation pressure is the same as for the C231 model.
This change allows the separation pressure to be lowered more, which
makes it more effective for thin paper feed and separation.
Adjust the paper separation pressure by loosening
and moving the adjusting screw [A] up or down.
Moving up the screw
Increases the paper separation pressure
Moving down the screw
Decreases the paper separation pressure
Using this adjustment to cure non-feed and multi-
feed is not simple and depends on many factors.
Adjust using trial and error to get the best results.
Tighten the screw after the adjustment.
