Image displacement when using ADF due to broken grounding
sheet
For CE
[Symptom]
When reading single-sided pages from ADF consecutively, image displacement [a] may occur on output images.
"[b] indicates the feed direction."
[Cause]
The machine malfunction and it result in the above symptom when not properly grounded because the grounding sheet [a] located
in the stream read glass unit [1] of the reader unit is broken or torn.
[Service work]
1) Prepare a new stream read glass (FL3-4769-000) and replace the old one.
2) Output the image having shown the symptom, and check that the symptom does not occur.
If the symptom does not improve, then check other factors.

Horizontal white line appears at 120mm from the leading edge of
the sheet with a Bk halftone image
For CE
[Symptom]
When a halftone image is printed out in Bk mode with the setting of Heavy 1 (106-128g/m2), a horizontal white line [a] may appear
at 120mm from the leading edge of the sheet.
The arrow [b] indicates the direction of feeding.
[Cause]
The above mentioned symptom occurs when a sheet of paper rushes into the secondary transfer roller, its impact is propagated
through the ITB to the drum and the speed of the drum fluctuated.
Due to the difference in the primary transfer engagement/disengagement operation, setting up Bk mode Heavy1 (106-128g/m2)
exposes the symptom.
[Service work]
Print out after setting Paper Settings to Heavy2 (129-150gmm2).

Horizontal lines with 94mm pitch on a halftone image
For CE
Symptom
Horizontal lines with 94mm pitch [a] may occur when a halftone image is output.
The arrow [b] indicates the direction of feeding.
[Reference] In this symptom, the horizontal lines may occur as bunches of plural lines[c]/diagonal lines [d] / lines with dropped
part [e].
[Cause]
The inside of main body infinitesimally vibrates when the main body is operating.
The friction force of surface of the drum becomes uneven due to the vibration which the drum gets.
Therefore the several thousand paper feeding may make the difference of shaved surface condition of the drum.
Since there are different shaved conditions on the surface of the drum, uneven potential is generated at the each point and then
cause the foregoing symptom.
The shaved condition on the drum surface becomes even gradually with the advancement of life of the drum, and then the
symptom will be improved.
[Service work]
1) Select Settings/Registration > Adjustment/Maintenance > Maintenance > Clean Inside Main unit, and press "Start" button.
[Reference] The cleaning takes about 130 sec.
2) Output the image having shown the symptom, and check that the symptom does not occur.
If the improvement of the symptom is not sufficient, a couple of implementations of Procedure 1) are required.
3) Output the image having shown the symptom, and check that the symptom does not occur.
If the symptom does not improve, check other causes.

Image failure occurring repeatedly at the same interval (xx pitch)
For CE
[Symptom]
Repeating image failure [a] whose intervals are same pitch may occur.
The arrow [b] indicates the direction of feeding.
[Cause]
The image failure occurs when rollers have foreign matters or flaws.
[Service work]
Check the rollers or Belts of a) to j) below.

a) When the interval is 34.9 mm pitch, check Developing Cylinder [a] in Developing Assembly (FM1-N370/-N371/-N372/-N373).
b) When the interval is 94.2 mm pitch, check Drum [b].
[Note] If the failure occurs in all the colors, checkFixing Film [i] or Fixing Pressure Roller [j].
c) When the interval is 44 mm pitch, check Charging Roller [c] of the Drum Unit.
d) When the interval is 55.0 mm pitch, check Primary Transfer Roller [d] (FC0-0257).
e) When the interval is 50.3 mm pitch, check Secondary Transfer Inner Roller [e] (FL0-4164).
f) When the interval is 77.7 mm pitch, check Secondary Transfer Roller [f] (FE4-8322).
g) When the interval is 893.1 mm pitch, check ITB (Intermediate Transfer Belt) [g] (FM1-N265).
[Note] When the paper whose size is A3 or 11x17 is used, the image failure occurs at a frequency of once in 2 sheets.
h) When the interval is 101.7 mm pitch, check ITB Drive Roller [h] (FC8-4403).
i) When the interval is 94.2 mm pitch, check Fixing Film [i] in Film Assembly (FM1-N253/-N254/-N255).
[Note] If the failure occurs only for any color of Y/M/C/BK, check Photosensitive Drum of the Drum unit.
j) When the interval is 94.2 mm pitch, check Fixing Pressure Roller [j] in Pressure Roller Kit (FM1-N252).
[Note] If the failure occurs only for any color of Y/M/C/BK, check Photosensitive Drum of the Drum unit.

Poor stacking/wrinkles/tear of paper due to inappropriate position
of the aligning plate of the processing tray unit (Inner Finisher-G1/
H1)
For CE
[Symptom]
When taking copy with single sheet output using inner finisher, this may lead to a poor stacking [A] or wrinkles/tear [B] at the
center of the trailing edge of paper due to unfinished delivery of paper to the tray.
The arrow [a] indicates the direction of feeding.
[Cause]
A poor adjustment of the aligning plate of the processing tray unit encumbers a proper delivery of paper and this ends in the
aforementioned symptom.
[Service work]
When the above mentioned symptom has occurred, adjust the width of the aligning plate following the procedure below.
1) Select the paper to be set in the processing tray unit from Service Mode.
In case of A4 size : Service mode > SORTER > ADJUST > INF-ALG1
In case of LTR size : Service mode > SORTER > ADJUST > INF-ALG2
[Note] The paper size used for the width adjustment of the alignment plate is A4 size or LTR size.
2) Enter -50 in the section for entering the adjusted value [a] of the target paper and press OK [b] (the image below is the case
of A4)
6

[Note] This operation stops the alignment plate at the alignment position +5.0mm.
3) Set one sheet of paper [1] in the processing tray unit, fit it to the edge [b] of the rear alignment plate [2], and then measure the
gap [a] between the edge of the front alignment plate [3] and the paper with a scale.
[Note] Since the alignment plate is installed a bit tilting toward the delivery direction, set the paper to be fitted to the edge (on the
delivery side).
4) Enter the gap value measured in the above step 3) in the calculation formula below, enter the calculated adjusted value [a]
and press OK [b].
Adjusted value = gap (mm) x 10 - 50
[Note] Correspondence table of measured gap value and adjusted value.
Gap mm (measured value) adjusted value
