Hello all -
First, sorry if this has already been asked and answered. I've been searching for about an hour now. I have a Savin MP C307 that is shifting the image quite a bit, duplex or not. I say that but the user there says it happens a lot more when duplexing. If duplexing (this is at a church and they print their two-sided bulletins) the first one will be fine, then all subsequent prints have the image on both sides shifted at least what looks like and inch or more, one direction on one side and the opposite direction on the other side. This is a SEF machine (only way it will work). I did notice shifting one one sided prints as well, but mostly on duplexed prints. I worked as a printer on pro series Xerox machines and when this happened to my Versant 80, I had anti-static fluid from Xerox and this always fixed the problem in that situation. However, there is nothing like the area I used to treat inside this 307. If paper were slipping, enough for the image to be as shifted as it is, wouldn't I get a jam SC Code? That makes me THINK that it's the image moving, not the paper being late or early. It's off enough that the triangle's point on the Counter Sheet is cut off at the top of the page on one said and the text at the bottom of this sheet is almost all the way cut off on the other side. The user at this church scans her bulletins and has the same result as me doing the "internal" print using the count sheets generated by the copier, not from a scan, if that makes sense.
Any one have an idea? As I said, I've searched this forum and I've searched the Service Manual using all the search terms I could think of (skew, image shift, image skew, image moves, etc.)
Again, if this has been answered, sorry for not finding it here before posting. Thanks to you all for any help I get.
