Canon IRC3200/3220 Upper heater roller problems

[junkiemanxl]

Hi friends,

I need some advice on this issue I'm facing currently with the IRC 3200/3220 machines.

When printing full colored prints, The paper does not exit normally and curls up into the upper heater roller and cause jam. I have already replaced the heater rollers but this problem still arises only on colored prints. What could be causing this problem to happen?

Could it be the bearings and bushings that need changing as well?
Could it be the temperature of the rollers need to be calibrated?

Do share your experiences & advice with me if you have a remedy for this.
Thx

It could be your media. If you rebuilt your fixing assy, chances are that your fixing assy won't work as well as a new one. Try replacing it.
What kind of media are you trying to print on? Full or high density coverage will sometimes bubble up or stick to the fixing roller. This is a business color machine.

amen, my brothers. in singapore could this be a humidity prob

[junkiemanxl]

I'm guessing it might be due to conditions as well. humidity here is high. Even paper dampness might play a part here.
Any other suggestions?
Could it be parts that are not built properly? the fusser replaced are all new from canon...

hi,first check the nip width it should be about ten mill front and back and 8 mill in the middle.try enlarging the lead edge to about 8 mill blank.poor paper quality and recycled paper can cause probs i try to advise customers to use thicker better quality paper to save on jam probs i hope this helps.If the fuser is creacking it could be down to damaged bearings or too much pressure.When installing new fusers you should always check nip width.

Simple .. Paper .. every time .. curling on single sided jamming on double sided .. do you get condensation around fuser after 20 copies after start up from cold ... Yep Paper..

fuser should be rebuilt at 100 000 and replaced at 200 000

Try lowering the temperature to 180 degrees in service mode (FUNCTION>OPTION LEVEL 1>BODY>TEMP-TBL set from "0" to "2")

OR in the service mode set up your trays and or deck for a heavy paper setting/ only problem with that is u have to tell the customer/and or clients when printing to select heavy paper when printing. or it will prompt to add paper. !!!!!
It will slow down printing somewhat/ but it works/ have some graphic customers with this set up/ no jams/pealing or wrap around fuser. Even in bad enviorments.

Can you help me please with the setting for heavy paper? I want to make the setting for heavy paper but i will use normal one so the printing speed should be slow without rolling up the superior roller.
