Re: c65x Bypass Roller Alternatives?
are they defining the paper weight properly for each job?
is it misfeeding?
I had Ricoh years ago.. tried springs on the feed arm of the BYPASS tray.. finally I taped an old *metal* oki retard shaft on top (xtra weight).. had no probs for a month.. went back pulled the arm..hot glued the shaft on the underside in the channels of the arm. From then on the user changed his own rollers and I was done!Comment

Re: c65x Bypass Roller Alternatives?
You might try weighting the pickup, like most of the production machines can. Keep in mind that it reduces the roller life by ~50%. What are the roller inner and outer dimensions?
The thing about envelopes is that they hold air, and compress. The more envelopes that you stack the more they compress. One of my customers has a Xante (Ricoh rebadge) designed to feed mainly envelopes. It is fitted with two conveyors. The first conveyor staggers up to 200 envelopes and creeps along, bring one or two envelopes at a time into the pickup feed. The second conveyor replaces the exit tray. It creeps along collecting the staggered envelopes. It's very effective, in my humble opinion the only reliable way to print volumes of envelopes. =^..^=

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.

Re: c65x Bypass Roller Alternatives?
advice so far is spot on just remember capacity of the bypass decreases with heavier paper.

Also you can try adjusting the pressure on the sep roller. The c654 has a little tab to move the older one you could probably swap springs.

And that bulletin has me left speechless! I will definitely try it.
Thanks!

He actually had some Okis (38xx model I think) that can be rigged to do envelops like the Zante (he even had one of those--didnt have conveyor) but got rid of them some years ago, problem with the OKIs for him was the insane toner costs (and PQ was...meh).
How does on play with the bypass tray timing??
I forgot about those "new style rollers" I will order several.
Reminds me of a joke:
I made love to my wife last night but instead of using a normal condom, I used a frog skin.I thought I'd rib it for her pleasure.Comment
