UPGRADING Canon IR105

**COPIERTEC ASSOCIATES** · 04-12-2015

Modifying an item has a broad spectrum of which you could first tell us which particular areas to modify.
As far as iam concerned,this machine is a robust copier with great speed and efficience save for problematic jams
more especially when paper is not of good quality.To add on what DAG COPIERS has said this machine is absolete
in the production line coz canon has already advanced to IR Advanced series of which i believe modifications have
been made on the weakness of IR105.

I don't think so that 'manufacturing modifications' is exclusive right of canon as the patent owner after selling,
but your point of view is good. Te

That may be so, but I think canon like any other serious manufacturer, has a 'chain of command' or system, right from the manufacture representative down distribution chain to the dealer, through which they gather market information and feedback about the performance specification of their products.
As a matter of fact canon regularly issue technical bulletins or publications on any modifications they have done on a particular product. As you graduate from a 'newbie' to an 'oldbie' in this forum and also carefully search through the forum archive you will find many of these tech pubs.

One point to note, if the owner of a Canon Printer
does not have or cancels their Canon Authroized service contract , they do not have the privilege to see Technical Publications, Firmware Updates,
& Fixes .

Known as "Left Out in the Cold".

Thanks COPIERTEC for your reply.

Making modifications to Canon IR105 solving the most common continuous problems in this machine.
As I am one of the users for this machine, I am stuck in to two problems at the moment:
1- Two side copy Jamming. ( As you gave me a solution for it in this post which I will try it. )
2- Very slow PDF printing.

Regards.

Solution to problem 1;As earlier said,the problem to two sided copying being transfer corona,take note of this;
1.Dis-assemble the transfer assembly and wash the blocks and dry.
2.Re-assemble and tie new corona wires.
3.Open the rear cover and check on the secondary HVT connections of the seperation voltage ie connection S and Q.
4.Many times connection Q has always been the culprit,so if possible completely disconnect it coz it is major cause of the leakage on thi machine.
Solution to problem 2;Slow to PDF printing could be caused by a lower version of the firmware,so try to up grade the firmware.
Good luck brother!

Dear COPIERTEC.
I appreciate your reply.

I attached pictures for the location of jamming in two side copy.

Is it still corona replace problem after these attachments?.

Also, did you mean at step 4 that I permanently disconnect connection Q without replace it?, if so what is the benefit of it?.

Regards.

If you tell us the jam codes we should be able to help you.
In your third picture, there is paper stuck under the reversing guide. Replace that guide, because they get warped.
Hsve you cleaned or replaced the clutches, or rollers?

Dear vigour.
How do I get the code?, because what appeared in the screen is what I attached.
