    Re: What's the weirdest thing that you have ever found inside a copier,printer?

    The other day I found the sticker from a Fuji apple stuck to the primary transfer cleaner blade. I didn't find the apple ... yet.

    Oh, and quite a lot of my own flesh and blood in a the drive of a Mita DC-3285. It took quite a long time to grow back that finger.

    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.

    Found a mouse under the glass of a Konica Minolta bizhub 200 living in the copier. He ran down into the mfp board which I had to remove to get it out.

    Not a machine perse but in a office.
    I wittnessed a law firm remove staples from documents before scanning.
    The staples had built up behind the bench and down into a 240Volt power board.
    A few more months the pile of staples in the power board would have bridged
    across to the metal frame of the bench and zapped any person touching the bench frame.
    If any person reached behind the bench and touched the pile of staples they would have been electrocuted.

    Re: What's the weirdest thing that you have ever found inside a copier,printer?

    Yesterday I got a trouble call for blurry copies in a ar-m257.
    I arrived to find that a gecko had walked into the grease on the scanner rails, then across the laser glass.
    I never did find the gecko.
    If the gecko keeps it up, I'm going to have some job security.

    A bullet and not the whole bullet, just the end that was fired into the copier.

    This was in a trade-in machine we had to junk afterwords.

    I feel the customer was unhappy with the machine.

    Not in the copier, but rather in the parking lot.

    About 1990 or so, I went to service a fax in a rather bad neighborhood, and found numerous, small caliber, spent shell casings on the ground.

    Yikes!!!

    Did you hang around to ask questions, investigate? =^..^=
    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.

    That didn't just happen overnight. It took some time. Did you find the little fellow's entry point and close it off? =^..^=

    Not on your life, I didn't!

    I ran in, fixed the fax in record time, and got the flock out of there in a hurry.

    Most of the nasty stuff in that neighborhood happens at night, but I wasn't about to see if the thugs were willing to make an exception.
