    You can thank the FCC (at least the screw manufactures can). They have a crazy very complicated formula for calculating the number of Fasteners / screws that should be placed on an EMI Shielding plate for an electronic device. But the long and short of it is place a screw about every 2 inches if the plate/cover/shield is made of unpainted metal. You don't even want to see what it is if the metal is painted! That's why they stopped using the old black metal covers.

    I always figured it had something to do with EMI, and that cover does go over some connectors but it's just a pain in the ass to remove all those screws... Can we hit them with a law suit when we get Carpal Tunnel?
    Color is not 4 times harder... it's 65,000 times harder. They call it "TECH MODE" for a reason. I have manual's and firmware for ya, course... you are going to have to earn it.

    Thanks pepper38. That was an interesting read.
    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.
