We have been dealing with the issue of the web not advancing properly in some of these machines and have a pretty good handle on that. Now that we have machines running with no advaning problems we are seeing machines that the web ran out in 40k-60k when it is rated for 120k. we have had many machines get about 120k copies before the web run out. So far all the the F5-74 settings has been on 1 for standard web advancement. Is anyone else seeing this?

Idk about that box but web drive is usually done based on web life. If ya don't reset the counter when ya put in a new web it will usually blow threw the new one.Color is not 4 times harder... it's 65,000 times harder.They call it "TECH MODE" for a reason.

I've never had an issue with the webs running out early on any of the 23/30 series I service. Seems like you fixed the advancing issue a little too well.
The only advice I can give is to use the Web Counter in F7 to track the count. Then you'll know exactly how many more pages you should have gotten out of the webs.
Good Luck!Just because you're not paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you.

On new set-ups on these machines the F5-74 is set to 2, (medium, as opposed to short, 1, or long, 3). The bigger machines have the same setup but they use 1/10, 1/20, 1/30, with the default being 1/20. We have been setting both models to #1, short or 1/10, because of the web advance issues. This increases the amount of solenoid activations (i guess 1/10 is 1 click per 10 copies never researched, short would be the same effect), which will use more web, but, according to our panasonic rep, the 8060/35 web is supposed to last the full 240k no matter what the setting is, (the 2330/3030 never came up). With that being said I think it is rare for us to see that, although I'm sure it has happened to me a couple times in the past, and I know recently I had an 8035 where the web expired with a copy count of 216k, which is the first time I've seen that.
I've only just discovered the advance bulletin here (thanks to op), and have to dig deeper still. We've had some success with our own mods, and if you mark the tiny gear, you can usually tell whether or not you've solved your web advance issues. I wonder if perhaps you didn't fix the web drive units too well and it's turrning too far between clicks?Comment
