    MPC 4500 jamming issue

    Hello, I have an mpc 4500 that keeps jamming near the fuser area and sometimes in the fuser. There is no error codes with the jams. All the pick-up / separation rollers are good. I have checked all the sensors around the fuser area and also the fuser and decoder. Any help will be much appreciated.

    Regards

      Check the paper exit unit the bearings on the shafts can seize up after time causing intermittent fuser / exit Jams

        Check the SMC data log. If there is no plotter jam history, check the total for jam at power on. A door being opened and closed while paper is moving through will cause a jam at power on. Usually it is a bad door switch. If it has a finisher, replace the door switches on the bridge unit.
