Without knowing that machine, I'm almost sure it must be a KonicaMinolta. Their engineers hate when the covers just fly away with the slightest breeze......

Re: Are you serious with this CRAP!!!
I remember the Canon whiteboard, I think the C60, which had something like 100 screws to hold the main panel in place. What a pain!
All this "screwiness", though, makes me think, "Does your company allow you to use an electric screwdriver?"
These days, I know we're allowed, but years ago, no.

Re: Are you serious with this CRAP!!!
Okidata is great for prodigious use of screws. I seem to recall 83 screws to remove the cover for the circuit board cage on the C7300 ... then remove the boards ... then remove 35 more screws for the inner side of the circuit board cage. =^..^=If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
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: Are you serious with this CRAP!!!
At least when you remove the screws, the cover comes off, unlike some printers, which seem like a brain teaser puzzle. You have 1 screw to remove, then you get to figure out which cover over laps another, and which magic tab you have to depress.The greatest enemy of knowledge isn't ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge.

Re: Are you serious with this CRAP!!!
You can thank the FCC (at least the screw manufactures can). They have a crazy very complicated formula for calculating the number of Fasteners / screws that should be placed on an EMI Shielding plate for an electronic device. But the long and short of it is place a screw about every 2 inches if the plate/cover/shield is made of unpainted metal. You don't even want to see what it is if the metal is painted! That's why they stopped using the old black metal covers.Attached FilesOnline Store is closed. Chip resetting is a thing of the past! Thank you to all my past customers.

I have manual's and firmware for ya, course... you are going to have to earn it.
