Bizhub C203 ADF image shift

Re: Bizhub C203 ADF image shift

Update: I performed every auto ADF adjustment ( Feed zoom, Original tray width, Auto stop position adj.),as far as I could see the machine didn't give me an option to perform a mixed sized original adjustment and I see no mentions of it in the service manual (checked to be sure I wasn't over looking it.), performed a sensor check to check before read sensor (PS9),

DF-611InstallInst.pdf I have followed these steps and still get the same bad copies. I checked the voltage of each clutch attached to the DFCB and everyone is getting proper voltage. As well as each of the sensors. a01hm0nc901da.pdf I have attached the installation manual of the DF-611 and the wiring diagram for the ADF. Any other ideas?

The VR behind the paper edge guides could be faulty

Could you tell me where the VR is?I could look at the parts manual and find it if you know the part number

When you move the paper guides apart they turn a gear, this gear turns a variable resistor (VR). If the gear has jumped it would put the VR out of range. If the VR is faulty it will also be out of range.

Re: Bizhub C203 ADF image shift

oh! I know exactly where that is. It's worth a shot to try it so i'll try it next, but the copier does notice the paper's size and I was able to perform an original tray width adjustment. Maybe it's faulty and is telling the machine the original is a different size than what's shown on the screen? Maybe I'm overthinking it?

Re: Bizhub C203 ADF image shift

maybe try backing up the address book and network settings to a PC and initialize it, put movie data back on and import the settings again.
try mixed originals setting, im also wondering if the CCD is whacked for adf scan area.
did you try 2 sided and see if it correctly prints on the 2nd imprint.

Did you blow out the sensor and black patch on the fold down guide on the bottom left of the DF?

The door on the left that you open to clear jams can break. It is hard to see but I have had to replace a couple of the doors on those ADF'S.

Yes, and both images on each side are shifted down half an inch

Re: Bizhub C203 ADF image shift

are you getting the same affect when you do a copy in lef. that may lead to a centering adj. for the tray with sef paper loaded. one thing also turn off auto zoom ADF in user settings and see what happens. do you have another df you can use to swap?

I did swap the DF-611 with a different one for the time being and the images are alot better, so I know that the problem is in my ADF. The image is shifted down to the left if I place the original LEF.

Re: Bizhub C203 ADF image shift

If you slide the guides all the way in, are they the same distance from the edges of the raised minimum position molded into the original tray? If not, then the rack and pinion gear has slipped a tooth or more.

Also, I haven't seen this mentioned yet so try this. Re-secure all connections to the ADF board and as many sensors as you can get to. Try the board first, then sensors if no change after board.

Do original tray width position adjustment as per book. From max - A3 to min - B6 sizes.
Also try to make a copy without DF selecting paper size i.e. just manually select A4 to A4.
