Copier paper jam is a common problem for a variety of reasons, mainly including the following aspects:
First, the paper problem
Poor paper quality: The use of unstable quality, uneven thickness, and non-standard size copy paper is easy to lead to paper jams. In addition, there is stubble on the edge of the paper, too much paper hair or moisture on the paper is also easy to cause paper jams.
Improper placement of paper: When placing paper in the carton, if the paper is not flat or too much, it may cause the paper to skew or stack during the paper feeding process, resulting in paper jams.
2. Hardware failure
Rolling wheel problems: Aging, wear, or dirt on the rolling wheel can cause it to reduce the friction on the paper and cannot effectively feed the paper into the paper path of the copier, resulting in paper jams.
Separator claw wear: After long-term use of the copier, the separator claw will wear, resulting in an inability to effectively separate the copy paper from the photosensitive drum or fixing roller, resulting in paper jams.
Alignment roll slip or clutch damage: alignment roll is the hard rubber roll that drives the paper forward alignment after the paper is rolled out of the paper box. If it is worn or the drive clutch is damaged, the paper forward speed will be slowed down or unable to advance, resulting in paper jam.
Fixing roller pollution: Fixing roller is the driving roller when the copy paper passes through, if its surface pollution is serious, it will make the copy paper stick to the fixing roller, resulting in paper jam.
Three, improper operation
Improper carton selection: If the carton selected is too far away from the sensitive drum, the paper needs to travel longer during the copying process, increasing the risk of paper jam.
Copy Settings error: Selecting an unsuitable copy size or special requirements, such as printing too thick or too thin paper, can also lead to paper jams.
Fourth, environmental issues
High humidity: In a humid environment, the paper is easy to absorb moisture and deform, resulting in paper jams during the copying process.
Static interference: When the weather is dry in autumn and winter, the copy paper is easy to stick together due to static electricity, increasing the possibility of paper jam.
solution
For the above reasons, the following measures can be taken to reduce the occurrence of paper jam:
Selection of high-quality copy paper: to ensure that the paper quality is stable, uniform thickness, standard size.
Proper placement of paper: Place an appropriate amount of paper evenly in the carton to avoid skewing or stacking.
Clean and maintain the copier regularly: clean the paper roller, separation claw, alignment roller and other parts to ensure that the surface is clean and free of dirt.
Check and replace worn parts: such as rolling wheel, separation claw, alignment roller and other badly worn parts should be replaced in time.
Adjust the copy Settings: select the appropriate copy size and special requirements according to the actual needs.
Keep the environment suitable: Control the humidity and temperature of the copy room to avoid moisture or static electricity on the paper.
