Not the glass but, on a Canon plotter at a county nursery, problem was scanner not working correctly. Found a mouse nest in the corner by the power supply(imagine that) and everything else that come with a family of mice living there. Multiple times found papers on glass left behind on traded in machines from dentist, doctors, chiropractors etc, with personal information, SS numbers and addresses and such.

Yeah...and yet the copier industry comes under fire for not having machines secure enough.

Best pay stub I found was $4400 after taxes for a month. One time while I was the only one in the room on base, I found a sheet that had the names, birthdays, social security numbers and addresses of an entire company of 3RD Special Forces soldiers. Walked it down the hall, handed it to an officer and told him he should be happy he has an honest repair tech.
One time I was ask to do a "while you are here" while in the command building. This was right after the start of the Afgan war. They couldn't find the jam. I found it. Pulled out a close up pic of someone's face laying on the ground in a pool of blood. It was a kill shot, to prove someone had got their target. They snatched it from me exclaiming "You're not supposed to see that.!"

The Big Boss left his complete personal financial statement on the platen glass of the main office copier once. He was lucky I found it not a salesman as they would have all been pushing for bigger commissions. All I will say was there was an awful lot of zeros on the bottom line.
At least 50% of IT is a solution looking for a problem.

Re: Financial Zero's
Did you ask the boss if you could have a couple of them ???
Honesty should be rewarded, you should have insist the zero's wouldn't look so lonely on your tax return ....

Accounts can be divided into basically two groups...1) friendly, people who will talk to you and 2) those who watch you suspiciously.
I was at a type 2 account. Over the years I have tried to minimize size of tool bag. One method being smaller spray bottles for glass cleaner. Bottle of the day was a small sample size bottle of "Salon Selective #10, Extra Hold" hairspray. I had cleaned bottle out and replaced with windex.
So I am at account, do my thing and go on my way. Week later same account calls back complaining of Doc Feed jams. I arrive at account, lift the doc feeder and the belt is literally sticking to the glass.
I turn and ask customer, "Does anyone know what is on the glass?" This woman brimming with attitude walks over to me and reaches for copier cabinet. She pulls out her full size bottle of "Salon Selective #10, Extra Hold" hairspray and announces, "We use the same stuff you do"
It's times like this I wonder who watches these people when I'm not there.
I think I would have to ask the question: " What's so special about hairspray?"
You know, imitation is the ultimate compliment. =^..^=
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.
Called out fro a CQ issues between Christmas and New years. Opened and look at glass and it was smudged . Upon looking at it from different angles to see where I had to clean it was very apparent. Boobs!!!

If all else fails read the Service Manual!
If that fails, meet me at the pub and we will discuss it.

Boobs or cheeks? Either way, where had they been to leave crud on the glass........?
We had a customer who leased a Risograph from us, that was seized by police in an investigation into running an illegal gambling racket(among other things).. Well the police apparently had all the evidence they needed so they let us recover the machine. Just for kicks when we get it back to our shop, and we open up the drum to find a master burned on with NBA and NCAA basketball pool brackets.
