Symptom
Jam80, Jam97, and Jam98
Cause
Breakage of the springs that enable the contact/retract function of the “Registration Timing
Roller” and “Transfer Timing Roller“.
Solution
Check the position of the very tip of the spring. If the tip is in the top position, flip the
spring upside down and hook it on the bracket so that the tip positions to the bottom.
z
2 persons are required to remove the transport unit
z
Check both front and rear; total of 4 locations for both rollers
Details
If the tip of these springs is positioned to the top, the contact/retract motion of the rollers
causes the tip to interfere with the plastic bracket and applies excess contortion to the tip,
which could result in breakage of the springs over time.
Interference
Tip of the spring interferes
with the bracket when the
rollers move up and down.
Tip of the spring is
applied with continuous
stress in this condition.
