    [Misc] canon ir1740 skew

    I ran into a Canon ir1740 that skews about a 1/4 inch per 11 inches. No idea why. Same out of all 4 trays.Only 26k on machine.The paper is skewing.???

      I get the skew on prints as well as copies. The skew is not on the paper. The paper actually skews as it goes through the machine. I believe the skew is created at the reg roller
