hi guys, I am just wondering or any one has a layout of a map that gives a marking on a copy machine tat say the parts needs or can apply grease to it?

Re: applying grease to a printer
Most service manuals have such information. Did you have a specific machine in mind? =^..^=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: applying grease to a printer
You'll need to get that from one of the Ricoh guys ... it would probably be helpful to know what model you had in mind. You'll probably find that specific manufacturers have very different answers to that same question.
Here are some general rules that I follow on most machines (with some specific exceptions):
MobilGrease28 (clay based thick grease, aircraft specification)
Spring Clutches (you don't see too many of those any more)
Spring Torque Limiters
Plastic-on-plastic or plastic-on-metal friction/squeaks
TriFlow (light oil)
Oil impregnated bronze bushings
Bearings
Metal Shafts (not near developer or toner)
Torringtons (one-way bearings)
SW30 Motor Oil
Scanner Rails (use minimum)
Conductive Grease
High Voltage Contacts
Drum Shafts
Bias Contacts
High Temperature Grease (HP500)
Heat & Pressure Roller bearing/bushing surfaces
Fuser drive gear (bores only, no need on the teeth)
Silicon Oil (Fuser Oil is very model specific, so use manufacturers recommendations whenever possible)
Things that NEVER get lubricated under any circumstances:
Leather torque limiters
Magnetic torque limiters
Electromagnetic Clutches
Photointerrupters (?!?!?)
Those are my general rules. I'm sure there will be many more opinions! =^..^=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.

Re: applying grease to a printer
just as blackcat said. you need to know a specific brand and model. even same brand different models is gonna require lubrication in different areas. its not a generic all for one.Comment
