I have an IR3030 that a previous technician adjusted the nip pressure and now the unit is eating fixing film. Does anybody have any idea what the setting should be for the IR3030? Any and all help would be appreciated.

Re: IR 3030 Nip Pressure Adjustment
service mode
COPIER > FUNCTION > FIXING>NIP-CHK
Making output for measuring the fixing nip width automatically
<Operating procedure>
1) Register Plain Paper or Recycled Paper for the manual feed tray.
(User mode: Setting Common Specifications>Registering Paper Type).
2) Place plain paper or recycled paper of the A4 (LTR) size on the manual feed tray.
3) Select this service mode and press the OK key (to feed paper from the manual feed tray).
4) The fed paper is held once by the fixing roller and ejected after about 10 seconds.
5) Check that the nip width of the ejected paper conforms to the standard.
Note: This machine does not allow nip width adjustment. This item is used for nip width checking only.
there is no manual nip measurement procedure on this model
Do not touch the screw [1]. Turning it will change the
pressure of the fixing assembly, which cannot be
adjusted in the field, necessitating the replacement of
the fixing assembly.

Re: IR 3030 Nip Pressure Adjustment
This won't help you much now, but this fuser can be rebuilt without changing the nipp adjustment, and it's highly preferable not to touch the current setting.
Also keep in mind that wear on the pressure roller, and/or wear on the pressure roller bearings can very severely affect you fixing pressure. The pressure roller and bearings will usually last two cycles, and the heat roller sleeve only one cycle. You're welcome to try to set that fixing pressure at the screws indicated by teckat. It's a very touchy adjustment, and in the end you will wish that you had bought an assembly rather than spending your time this way. =^..^=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.
