I'll give a bump in rep and an adda boy to the first person to tell me what the PRIMARY purpose of this litte thing is.

Man I should take pics of some of those we have in the 601/751's at the schools....they just ooze paper dust like crazy...

ditto what luther said but some of the 600 and ups used them on the transport/prereg rollers.

Paper dust collector for what?

**Kidaver** · 08-13-2013

There are two plastic rollers right before the registration roller where they sit snug right up against them. I've seen them in 600/750...and they maybe in the 601/751...now that you brought it up I can't remember if they are or not...but they may be in both series...

You also get them in 1050pro series and later.....I clean them with a straight edge or vac them...

Sorry, I'm not clear in my question. I don't wanna know what machine they are in, I wanna know their primary purpose for being in the machine, to keep paper dust out of what?

**Kidaver** · 08-13-2013

Well they are mostly in high speed machines....and before registration so probably to keep registration and the IU from getting caked in the dust...as I said before in schools where they do not use the highest quality paper that massive amounts of dust would be a nightmare if they got clogged up in those areas...
