    e-studio 255, image delay

    Hello,

    I don't know if I'm using correctly the delay word but the story is:

    This macine had ~ 600K when I was asked to take care of it and now it has about 640K, I don't have alot of Toshiba experience.
    I replaced fuser worn parts, paper pick'up, drum .... etc.
    From tray one is jamming badly with E020 code. So I did try the large capacity tray and tray 2. From tray 2 it doesen't jam and doesen't delay the printed/copyied image (or I didn't notice). From the big tray doesen't jam but the ''delay'' is about 5 mm and is varing betwen 3 - 6 mm. I have tryied to rotate accuators spring's to give them more accurate response but it doesen't help.
    I have read some thread's about this E020 and first tray problem's, but I don't have SM to read more. I suspect that registration could be the problem or I could make small adjutment's to it.
    What's your opinion?

    1) These machines are known for flat-spotting the separation roller in as little as 15K at low usage. Start there first.

    2) Feed clutches are next most common failure. Easy replacement.

    3) Check the condition of the sector gear on the back of the tray. Could be screw lost, screw loose, or cracked sector gear. The way to check is power off, load the tray with 3 sheets of paper. Remove the back cover. Power up. Close the tray, and watch the sector gear. If it hits the right arm extension of the tray then that's where the problem is. I usually threadlock the screw with my Wet and Wild yellow enamel metallic nail polish. It would probably be alright if you used a different color of the Wet and Wild enamel. If it still touches with the gear intact, screw threadlocked, then you can re-form the lift plate in the tray up just a little for additional lift. You'll know what to do when you see it.

    4) Try adjusting the loop adjustment for tray #1 (05-452 ... I think). Default is 20. Bulletin value lowers it to 17. Values between 16 and 28 will pass paper. Experiment. Too low values will paper skew and jam. Too high values will clinch the trail edge and Z-fold.

    Enjoy. =^..^=
    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.
