    is the feed loop sensor damaged?

      Ran the sensor check. Looking at the Paper exit in service mode. The fusing loops value remains at 0.

      Can the cause the paper to be wrinkled/wavy?

        yes registration clutch stays on until loop sensor is made. this issue is more prevalent in the 654/754 series but this unit shares same basic operation.

          So there must be a synchronization issue with two units?

            yes that is one of the functions of the loop sensor

                I did replace the whole unit. Does the same thing. If the wiring was the problem I would see trouble codes. If there were issues with the electronic boards, the machine would also give me errors too. So would it be a possibility that the frame is bent? or the Door is the problem?

                  yes frame damage is a possible cause, ,so is door alignment.

                    Not sure if this would cause your wavy copies and you mentioned replacing exit section which would rule this out, however is it possible the box had a finisher in a previous life and the sensor unit attached the exit section for the relay unit was left behind when a finisher was removed. it installs so cleanly that it would look as if it has always been there.

                      Ok, Ill test it with the bridge and a finisher with it.

                          Lol, doing some start up on other machines at the moment. Will work on this machine later. Still does the wavy print out. I'll swap the door when I have a chance. Let you know the outcome.
