HI, blackcat4866, you have touched an interesting "button", on which I want to deepen, I usually go to nose, but if one wants to go as a sniper, I use a precision scale, which can be purchased from Chinese shops for 13 euros, you can weigh the sample sheet, and calculate the weight per square meter with some simple arithmetic multiplication

Re: White Stuffs on Thick Card Ricoh mpc4502
Exactly correct.
I have a precision gram scale to weigh a single sheet. If you only have a postal scale, you can weigh 20 sheets of your media in ounces, convert to grams, then divide by the 20 sheets.
Once you know the numerical grams per page, divide by the fraction of 1 meter your page represents (A4 paper is 0.0625 meters).
I think I have an attachment:

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 think that part of the problem is that most customers make settings for paper type, i.e. plain/recycled/letter head/card stock/etc, and don't about the thickness setting especially with card stock.Comment

Kyocera makes this especially confusing. There are 12 or so media labels, and 6 custom labels, each of which can be changed to whatever you like. When I get an Kyocera enduser that uses various medias (and there aren't very many endusers like this) I will set up the most commonly used media types in the Custom slots, and name them for the specific gsm ranges. In this way, it actually makes some logical sense, for a change.
Konica Minolta does a much better job of specifying a gsm range for each media type. The spreadsheet helps present media types in a consistent way. =^..^=If you'd like a serious answer to your request:

I bet a beer, that if he cleans up the thermistors, and sets up the drivers like I told him ... he'll solve the problem .... that kind of setting, is the one I personally use, and it has worked loads of times!........ .if he doesn't let us know anything more, I'll pull his ears ...

He's got to narrow it down, does it show the problem when copying, or just when printing? If it's just when printing, he's got to change settings in the driver or change the machine to "machine settings".Comment
