Re: What age group are you in?
Started straight out of high school in 1984. Anybody remember RBC 155/122's. We bought a tracker truck load for $25 a piece one time. LOL! 36 yrs later I own a small dealership and still enjoy going out making service calls. I'll be turning 54 this year. Spring chicken!

Re: What age group are you in?
Just about to hit 30 years in this business, seen a lot of changes and worked on many different brands.
I'll be 57 in a few months, but according to my niece I'm 114!!!!
Got to love the little ones and how they think
28 years ago I looked at the copier box and the computer box, told one of the computer guys that they were going to talk to each other.
He called me crazy!! That's when I started into computers on the side, all these years later and I'm still servicing both boxes.$hit Happens - Deal with it and move on.....................................sigpic....................................Lock & LoadComment

Re: What age group are you in?
I started in 1984 also. We had a lot of Royal 115/122's out in the field. Very good machine for the time. The school was two weeks long, week one was mechanical and week two was electronics. The machine only had one PCB, that was a very good first school. Full Pm every 20K, a lot of work but good machine for 1984.Comment

Re: What age group are you in?
Other than the first 3 months straight out of high school working on commercial refrigeration, I've worked on printers/copiers the entire time from 18 to 39. I don't get how the 50+ guys can still do this, I am already having issues with a worn out body and failing knees. Admittedly I was overweight from 21 to 37 so that probably played a roll. Now at 184cm and 77kg my knees struggle to get me back upto a standing position any time i need to work down low on these damn machines. I will probably need to find a desk job.Comment

Re: What age group are you in?
It's a tech malady ... bad knees.
I manage, but the knees are shot. It's hard to believe that in college I was doing deep knee bends with 200#. =^..^=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.
