    My admiration for the collective competence

    Hello there. Iḿ driving a strictly non-commercial digital printing workshop in my town for more than 16 years now. Our DIY place is just for people who do not earn money or live about printed products. Initiatives, artists, NGOs, and private needs. Also we do not earn anything and drive our place without any income, and free of wage labour, somehow in our spare time.
    So I was forced to learn much about our machines, first mainly duplicators, later Konica-Minolta copiers. In the meantime, I can read all service manuals, care about much stuff on my own, and fixed various machines. Anyways I better registered as "end user" to not make you belive it is my job to repair machines, even if I have to care of them every 2nd day at least.
    Of course know about copytechnet for more than a decade. But after loosing my old login and changing the mailprovider, I am back now after 8 years. In the past I already got tons of good advice from you and even made real private contact to great +10 year technicians from here, who helped a lot.

    I now plan to even care more about our machines, and make the old sweetharts doing their best. So I re-registered and will annoy you the upcoming years

      If all else fails read the Service Manual!

      If that fails, meet me at the pub and we will discuss it.

        Welcome back
        A tree is known by its fruit, a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost, he who sows courtesy, reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.
        Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.

          Welcome back!! What Konica Minoltas are you caring for?
          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.
