Scans from the glass start scanning 32mm from the index plate. Leading edge is adjustable, but nowhere near that far.
Scans through the DF come out charcoal gray or black, because light source #1 is parked under the edge of the shading plate. Read position can be adjusted, just nowhere near enough to reach the correct scan position.
There are four occurrences of C9401, mainly because light source #1 was not properly aligned with the white plate at the time the shading adjustment was attempted.
The scanner finds home position each time after scanning, but then pulses out from that HP sensor too far. The scanner has not crashed yet, but I haven't tried scanning an 18" long original.
We've swapped the scanner home position sensor with an identical sensor from the same machine, and it does change state properly in test mode.
The scanner moves smoothly, lubricated rails, cables properly tensioned. Replaced scanner motor. Tried various timing belt tensions, no change. It's currently got the original belt tensioning spring.
Replaced scanner control board. Replaced MFP board. Updated firmware to G00-U8. Clipped wire ties in the scanner area.
For me, the really weird thing is that occasionally it will scan one document perfectly aligned.
Am I missing something obvious? =^..^=
