    Renaissance Man

    Real men fix things, they don't just through them away. I have been fixing cars, computers, TVs, appliances, forklifts, tools and anything else I have that gets broken. I hate the fact that we as a nation, seem to have devolved from that frontier spirit of backyard mechanics and self-reliant individuals, to a culture that often seems challenged to change a light bulb. I've joined other tech forums so I can continue to expand my knowledge of various technologies, how things work and how to fix them. Today, I was in my office running my 12 year old Imagistics 3511 copier/printer and the stapler crapped out giving me an error code F1-87. So, I logged onto my copytechnet.com account and was about to start looking for help when a message came up telling me I need to post something or my account might get deleted. Fair enough. This shouldn't be a one way street and its reasonable that members of this site should contribute to the information data base. For the moment, I'm not sure how I will contribute, but contribute I shall. In the meantime, if anyone has any bright ideas about my stapler problem or perhaps a tech manual that might help, I'd love to hear from you. "Kudos" to all who get their hands dirt and fix things!

    Welcome! =^..^=
    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.

      If it ain't broke, don't fix it

          Welcome!!

          And your Imagistics machine is comparable to a Sharp AR355 model. Here's a thread on the error that might steer you in the right direction.
