    Anchor/Wallace Church Bulletins

    Anybody else having any trouble ? I've got a church with a 3060 with about 40K on it. They were having trouble running bulletins on this preprinted stock. They'd make it out of the cassette & stop at the transport roller. I'd clean the transport roller with Blowoff Rubber rejuvinator and it'd pass about 10-12 sheets before it jammed again. I tried switching cassettes & that didn't help. I finally got them all run off & then cleaned the tires once more. It was like a coating was coming off on the transport rollers. After that I ran 700 pages of regular 20# copy paper without any problems. May just have been a bad batch, we'll see when they run them tomorrow.
    Hope that helps !

    have them run the paper thru the by-pass and change settings for the mpt for that and see if that helps any.

      I haven't had much luck in this scenario.

      I had a funeral parlor that printed onto this cool Italian hand made media, with sparkles and bits of fiber. It was very fancy. The bits of sparkley were metallic and shorted out the transfer & separation charge. The bits of fiber collected in the developing unit degrading the copy quality.

      Another paper stock had a waxy coating that coated every roller from entry to exit. I didn't smell very nice in the fuser. The first cues were the smell, then poor fusing, then jamming first from the bypass tray, then other places. It took quite a bit of cleaning to get it all off, then only 50 or less prints to put it back.

      This was a Sharp Cougar, but that doesn't change the interpretation. This media was just too far out of specs to work in any MFP. =^..^=
      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.

        I have run into this before, when printing the stock they put powder on it to make the ink dry faster.

          If the volume & usage warrants and they don't necessarily need color, sell them a Duplicator. You can run cardboard through these machines and they run & run with no issues.

            waxy buildup

            all these responses are great, ditch the "blowoff rubber rejuve" is garbage' use simple green, or wd 40 on those rollers. i like printers "blanket wash" tell cust they need to use man feed or change paper stock. particularly liked "tech 2002"'s response sell em a duplicator prost!!!! j
