CopyTech ISO Terminology

[NeoMatrix]

I'm tired of the conflicting terminology used in many manufacturer's service and parts manuals .
I propose we all make a stand here to standardize terminology across all manufacturer's and parts listings in accord.

Example :we all know a fuse unit is also known as a fixer unit.

How many times has terminology caused confusion in our transfer of under standing between everyone. My secutary is always correcting my standard terminology with cross references to the parts manuals when she orders my machine parts. She always says it is not called that name in this parts manual,so don't call it by that name.... ahaaaahhhh....

Just my two cents (rounding five cents) worth.

Damn Ipad won't let me edit last post .

Any one interested in writing a Wikipedia page of ISO (Industry Standard Organisation )for the copier industry ?
We'll have to show a small image with each explaination of the standard.

Then again sounds like to much work............. I'll just have another beer. Tomorrow is another day.

I would like to propose that as from now on a drum is a drum not a pcu (sorry Ricoh trained techs)

As for part descriptions

Canon - separation roller / Toshiba K-roll SPT / Kyocera Roller Retard

Canon - XB4-5401-007 - SCREW, M4X10
Toshiba X0-02239000 - S/TPS/FHEXM-3X8-ZU3

Canon - Spring / Toshiba SPG-E-FUS-HR

Re: CopyTech ISO Terminology

At KonicaMinolta they call everything they can't find a good name for either "Guide" or "Holder"

Re : Fuser ISO standard

1. Pick off Fingers.
2. Fuser Scrapers
3. Pick off Pawls
4. Fixer pawls....

Yes it just adds to the confusion when a new employee enters the copier industry.

Our younger generation are the one's that will be building our retirement homes,factories,and society structure in general. If your cold,tired,hungry and lying in the gutter in your retirement, it's because you never took the time to teach the younger generations how to do it better. So then, who will be to blame for your own retirement situation?

Re: CopyTech ISO Terminology

I was setting up a PK-516 Punch Kit and the instructions read:
Go to Service Mode > Finisher > FS-FN adjustment > Punch F Sensor Intensity Adjustment > OK > End > OK > Exit.

... but when you go to the machine it actually reads like:
Go to Service Mode > Finisher > FS-FN adjustment > Punch Edge Adj. > "Punch Horizontal Position", "Main Body" use +/- to adjust > OK > Exit.

It wouldn't pass paper without completing this simulation. If there ever was a "Punch F Intensity Adjustment" it is gone now. I can only think these instructions were translated by two different teams (which never spoke to each other). =^..^=

I know what you mean....

Years ago. When working on Canon gear we had to read the install procedure for various attachment options. It was trade jaggon in those days to use the term "Jinglish" when we translated from Japanese-English into European-English. The meaning was often lost in the Japanese-to-English manuals.

It still the same now, albeit the procedures is shorter. Still need to read it once , read twice ; mentally scratch head. Mentally put a mirror in front & read thrice. Install & test for functionality.

Re: CopyTech ISO Terminology

Konica techs, on the 450/470, in one of the parts manuals, I found the pin that was attached to the machine that made the sorter actuator, referred to as a Schwartz.

Top feeder on a work order gets me every time. On more than one occasion the customer has watched me thoroughly check out the doc feeder and find no problem. That is when they point to the top feeder as being tray number 1.

From now on:

1. the fixing / fuser assembly will be refered to as "big hot thing with many paper jams!"
2. Paper trays are to be know as "paper holders where unwrapping the paper is optional"
3. Document feeders are to be "informal staple and paperclip removers and holder"
4. Toner bottles are to be "flask type item to be stored in cupboard and deny all knowledge of receipt"
