MPC2500 and MPC2800 Tray1 ON jams

[cbr600]

I have those 2 models wich are giving me some problems bouth on TRAY1 ON (jams).Actualy the paper is not feed from tray1 and give this jam.I replace the feed and separation roller but pointless, i checked all the sensors from the feed unit and all are working.I found something when i searched on forum but it was a b/w copier and the feed system looks different.Any advice ? THX

I forget to mention the jam is random.

Re: MPC2500 and MPC2800 Tray1 ON jams

One reason for these jams is the white clip that holds the feed and seperation rollers in. Because it's only held in with one clip, it moves away during feeding and the feed tyre disconnects from it's drive. Take the feed station out of the machine and put a small self-tapping screw down the shaft the feed roller sits in and screw the white clip to the feed tyre shaft, obviously not too tight or it'll stop the feed roller turning.

Check SP mode - Jam location. If many jams At Power On - like wrote Counsel - Bridge unit switches.

Item 14. When you put it into the feed station, you'll see the hole to put the screw into the feed tyre shaft. It basically stops the feed assembly from moving side to side too much.

luke001 and Counsel jams are at TRAY 1 on. I will try TonerMunkeh way

hi, CBR600, the advice I give you in addition to former colleagues and one way to clean the back of the paper feed, I solved with a little oil on a cloth and then with a screwdriver to rotate the cloth dampened within one way

I've also had a few bad clutches in the MPC series but that white clip issue is also familiar. You can modify the feeding unit with a washer so the clip sits tigher. I've also heard about people removing the clip.

Bad bridge unit switches doesn't make specific jam counts but indeed a high count on "at power on"
