Konica 2230

I was called to work on a Konica 2230 for blank copies. When I got there it wasn't printing blank copies, but instead it put void areas on the copy. Basically the letter paper had the copy print cut off on the top and bottom of the page and the legal had an area of print that was about the size of a statement sized sheet of paper. I replaced the main charge corona unit and the problem went away. I opened the paper tray to check the size adjustments because the paper looked skewed and off centered. Yet when I shut the tray, after finding one of the size fences broken, the copies started coming out as I stated earlier. We shut the copier off and back on and the copier was copying correctly. We had to put a screw back in the toner hopper unit that allows it to swing out so you can get to the drum unit. and after we did this the copier started printing out the bad copies as stated earlier again. So we cleaned the connections on the high voltage power supply board and the paper feed board, and the copier started copying correctly. When we left the copier was working, all I ask is does anybody know what could be causing this problem and am I going in the right direction in fixing it? If not what else can I try? Any help appreciated, thank you.

Look and see if there is paper caught behind the paper drawer effecting the paper size switches.

The problem I'm having isn't with the paper feed drawers, it's with the copies either coming out blank or coming out as a partial copy. We changed the main charge to fix this problem and cleaned the connections on the high voltage power supply board, and the connections on the paper feed board. It fixed the problem but was wondering if what I did is where the problem lies or is there something else I need to do to fix this problem?
Does any one know where I can get information for this machine? I have Jim Intravias book and a Service manuel downloaded but I here that there is supposedly a cheat sheet for this machine. However I was just wondering if there are any other manuels out there that are good to use for working on the machine? Any help appreciated, thank you.
