    Other than forgetting to pull them off when you attach a bridge unit. What purpose do these serve?
    I've never had problems with paper jamming/curling etc.

    Yes, for curling. The idea is to help the pages lay flat and stack, rather than curl up into scrolls. They don't do a great job of compensating for that curl issue. If you're getting scrolls in the exit tray, you'll get better results by flipping the paper in the tray or rotating the stack 90 degrees.

    The Hudson Series (eS350's) had a wedge shaped insert to lay in the exit tray to help the paper land flat and stack. I've made a few of those out of corrugated cardboard, in the hopes of getting by until I could find the official part.

    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    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.

      Yeah, I remember those wedge things on the old machines. I don't see much help in them stacking better either, but I do hear a lot of tech complaining about paper jams after
      installing a bridge unit though. LOl

        No, I will not send you Manuals, Software or your own little repair Genie to fix all your problems for you.

            Funny thing if for any reason they fall down and someone put it back in the rong place on the shaft then some weird noises like a rotaing fan hitting something can be heard only when the exit roller is turning - what a call was that haha
