    MX-5141N skewed paper feed

    I have a virtually new MX-5141 that will randomly skew 2-4 mm. Can anyone tell me if there is a manual adjustment to the buckle at the at the paper stopper roller? I think it may be in Sim 50 section but I can't see anything in there for manual settings, only auto. Suggestions?

        Hey, Thanks for the replies. Yes it does have an LCT stand but as I found this morning it was coming from the upper trays as well. Also found some strange settings in sims 48-6 and 50-1. Machine showed things way off from default so. Set the sims to default and no longer had skewing. Then we flashed the firmware and only some of the changed settings were changed by firmware. Testing with 200+ sheets showed no skewed copies. Basically it looks like a small change in a couple of motor speeds did the trick. Thanks for your feedback.
