2.8.11 PAPER REGISTRATION
The drive from the main motor [A] is transmitted to the registration roller through
the registration clutch gear [B].
The registration sensor [C] is used for correcting paper skew and for detecting
paper misfeeds.
The
cleaning mylar
[D] contacts the registration roller. It removes paper dust from
the registration roller so that this dust will not transfer into the development unit
through the drum cleaning unit.
The amount of paper buckle at the registration roller to correct skew can be
adjusted with SP 1003.
If jams frequently occur after registration, the paper feed clutch can be re-
energized so that the feed roller can assist the registration roller to re-start paper
feed. This may be needed when feeding thicker paper. This adjustment is made
with SP 1903; it can be adjusted separately for tray 1 and the by-pass feeder, so
place the problem paper type in one of these and adjust SP 1-903 for that tray
only.
