    [Misc] MP C4503 Folding Paper

    Good day. I have an MP C4503 which is folding paper before reaching the registration at random as per attached image. This is occurring when using tray 1. I have swoped the 1st and second paper feed unit assembly problem is still there. The guide plate swivel no.1 is ok. Has anyone ever encountered this issue?

    Look at the belts on the duplex door opposite feed station 1. One of them will be sticking. Just put a bit of light oil on the shafts and you should be sorted.
    It's 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.

    Hit it.

        Looks like it is time to replace feed rollers on the tray that is feeding from.

          As mentioned above this is a common feed rollers problem you need to replace them as a set.

            I have swoped the paper feed unit assembly but the paper is folded from tray 1 only. Tray 2 is working fine. I will change the feed rollers and see what happens.

              pickup roller kit worn, or the duplex door does not close properly, someone may have opened it too much and the metal hinges are warped, (this happened to me by a customer) .... try to keep it well pushed in the lower part with one knee while doing some printing tests

                gets my vote, try reinstall the belt turning it 180 degrees. Also I remember there is a bulletin on this with some extra washers or something.
                Please start you post with brand, model, problem.

                  That fault as in centre of paper would be the 3 belt rollers on the main door lower section

                    hi, I'm interested, can you explain to me which belt are you talking about?

                      Yes it was RD147116, but was for noise in paper transport path, as the belt would ride up on the holder. The spacers were meant to stop that from happening.
