Does brown leather have the proper electrical properties? I do not think that a neoprene blade could clean it adequately. This couldn't be true. Nobody is this stupid. =^..^=

A Woolen jumper might have worked better than a leather coat.
At least wool holds a static charge.

Working 20 years for army Special Ops gives me a few examples. This one is legendary. I have told it a couple of times. I have a toner delivery. I go in and check the machine. They are always out when they call. The bottle has toner in it, big surprise. i open drawer to put spares in. There is a big plastic bottle in there. It looks like a toner bottle, maybe, but isn't for this machine. I confiscate it. 3 days later they call for poor print quality. The drum looks like it has been sandblasted. I change it all, makes good copies. 2 days later, they call for same thing. Drum gone again??? I change it all wondering what is going on. About 2 days later I get all the clues in my head and go back. That bottle that I found and took, they had 2 of them. They thought they were toner but wouldn't fit in machine. They cut them open and saw black stuff, which was ground charcoal, because they were in line water filters. Ground charcoal does not make good copies. It makes the tech say all kinds of nasty things.

I admit that one is a classic tale, but in reference to your comment that nobody is that stupid, I have had liquids put in toner bottles that had powder in them...more than once. I have had to say the words "Master Sargent, you have to take the wrapper off the ream of paper before you put it in the tray."

The other week I drove 5 hours round trip to clean a spec off the slit glass, after having demo the practice to her the previous week, and trying to talk her through it on the phone the day before.

Stupidity gives me reason to get up and shower every morning.

Yesterday I made the 5 hour trip because a machine was down with an error message. The Ricoh was asking for fuser film to be replaced. I showed them how pressing the "x" in the upper right corner would make the message block go away and they could make copies again.

Re: wonders of the egyptain customers inventions😂

Now I have to contribute a story:

I took a call on a Mita DC-2055 if anybody remembers what that looks like. The call was for 1/2 copies, and indeed the front half of the image was completely absent.

This was a lawyers office ... so you can imagine what I found. The letter opener which lawyer X likes conveniently balanced on the edge of the scanner fell in the single feed bypass tray and slide gradually down as far as it would go ... until its hardened steel tip touched the drum. Just like a mill, the letter opener quickly cut the drum in half near the center. Since the drive comes from the rear, the rear 1/2 of the drum still made pretty nice copies. The front half didn't turn at all.

The repair was simple. And as I was writing the bill (service contracts do not cover this), I explained that they might choose to store their letter opener in a different place. Nope! Lawyer X puts it right back on the edge of the scanner, right over the bypass tray.

What can you say to logic like that? =^..^=

...and they're assigned to protect the country.
It would be quite funny if it wasn't so serious.

Sorry Mr President, I thought the ICBM plutonium run low so I fill it with graphite instead.
It was just a simpleton mistake.

Uncle SAM plays regular war games in our local military training area.
They're known for accidentally pressing the wrong button and dropping ordinances in the local fishing zones,
right where the fishing trawlers and recreational boaties go.

The locals must complain first before USAM will go out an clear up their oops....

Canon CLC 1180, jamming on the transfer drum. Checked it out and found no static. None what so ever, so I was just about to start taking it apart and check the hvt when the key op came in and told me she sprayed anti static on the transfer drum as it seemed the sheets stuck there when it jammed. I explained that this was normal and necessary for it to work, needed a new belt after. Sure was glad she told me, who knows how long I would have been there testing boards and power supplies.

I had one customer put toner for a analogue NP 3235 or whatever it was into a IR 2200. Reversed image of course and I could smell the toner as soon as I took the dev out as I used to rebuild these in the shop. Later I found the empty box. I have wondered who would cut open a toner bottle and spoon it into the machine, it was the only way they could ahve done it.

That's one constant with this job, people doing dumb things that make your day longer, harder and more frustrating. Could be customers, co workers, manager and the idiots driving into things while on your way to a call.
