Thanks: 
Likes: The video tells the whole story. I could have told you that a pad of any sort would make it worse. You might try a weak magnet (like a refrigerator magnet). The flag will cling to the pickup shaft, damping the bounce. =^..^=

If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

Doesn't the Bizhub 200 series have a detect flag-spring you could order of steal off a parts machine?
A spring won't fit. I also noticed the flag is high enough due to the warped cover, that it lets a piece (or several) get underneath of it. Pressing down lets the flag hit at the bend and not bounce. The bounce causes it to detect no paper, or not detect the last sheet. I'm placing about 40 lbs on top of all DF621's in the shop all weekend to see if they will flatten out. Then I will swap any feeders in the field that have 66-02 codes and good tires, and especially any where the customer notices "that sound" after the last page has exited and it tries to feed nothing.
If weight alone won't un-warp them, I'll treat them to some heat & weight. The darn left cover ass'y A143PP9N02 is about $200 cost, and you get to re-mount all sensors plus about 20 other parts and re-thread the harness....
Your suggestions continue to impress me, but see comment below.Originally Posted by blackcat4866
Placing about 20-30 lbs weight on top of the DF621 left cover (lid) for a week has reduced the warp on each cover in our shop from 24~26 mm to 23~24 mm measured from the center of the doc tray to the bottom edge of the lid. Several days later they have not warped back up more than .5 mm. So I'll swap units in the field and see how long that lasts. Any more than 24 mm may cause some switch bounce and feeding of a final original that does not exist.
That sounds like success, at least in the short term. Please keep us posted how it progresses. =^..^=

I think this to be a model feeder that has a modified paper present actuator available that can accept a magnet to prevent this from occurring.
CraigW: I haven't seen a part # or any mention of that. Again, if it's warped up high enough, paper can get under the flag and cause other issues. Best to get the lid flattened back down to less than 25mm. Most working units in the field are about 23~24 mm. See pic of measurement.

Actuator = A3CFPP4VOO
Magnet = A3CFPP1700
The 621 IIRC does NOT have these from factory though.
CraigW - My Nov. 2014 parts manual does not have this part listed. Is this definitely a DF621 part? Not sure what IIRC means.
THANKS!
