AR 205 problem

[vlad_robas]

Hello all,

we sold this machine to a school about 3-4 year's it was old then but was working nice, it has about 250 k (if wasn't 88 code reseted), no RADF instaled and it does that long image at copying, see page2, no printing is instaled either
i tryed to clean and do some checking, 64-1 it only has that gray pattern not the squares one, so i'm waiting for ur opinion in this matter till Monday
let's all have a nice weekend and thank you

IF..... Page 1 is the Original on the Glass and page 2 is the Output..

Then you really need to look to the Scan Rails ..check with Sim 1-1 for full sweep and smooth operation, the rails need to be cleaned and new grease added.

If that doesn't work then maybe look at the PS clutch and/or the 'pinch rollers' on the PS roller.

Vlad,
From your post I am assuming these things:

1) The 64-1 print output looked OK.
2) like johnbla said, page 1 image is the original, page 2 image is the resulting copy.

If these statements are true, is must be an optical component. For the blurring to affect the entire page so evenly I would rule out a motor, drive or cable problem. I would focus on the cleanliness of mirrors and lenses, image focus, and the CCD.

If the 64-1 output is also affected I would blame the laser unit.

first lens (small one) afther plygonal motor was the problem, i glued it back and i realy hope it will hold couse to get to the LSU unit and open it is realy a lot of work and is a good thing they changed it
Thank you all for the post's.
