    BH-363 mono, trailing edge part missing.

    BH-363 mono, trailing edge part missing. Machine has about 360K on the clock.

    About 10 mm at the trailing edge are skipped/condensed accompanied by a very fine line. (see attachment).

    The fine line is forwarding into edge erase region but does somehow not show in the here attached scans but it goes right to the very edge of the paper.

    This happens occasionally but often. Both with copies and also internal prints. Reseated memory already but no improvement. My guts are telling me either laser or logic boards. What do you guys think? I'll have to go there tomorrow back again.

    Huh...

    On print and copy?

    Hehe. Ok

    Don't know what to say.

    And it does not jam?
    What is the paper size?
    Whatever

      Registration roller bushings?
      ... In the minute that you're thinking of giving up, think about why you lasted so long ...

        Maybe laser cutting out, but I've never seen a laser failure like that. =^..^=
        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.

          What happens on different lengths of paper? Same issue on all lengths?
          Started in the copier service business in the fall of 1988 and worked at the same company for 33.5 years, becoming the senior tech in 2004 but left to pursue another career on 4/29/22.

            If it were laser it would be random, no set interval from lead or trail.

            Your samples seem to be the same distance from the trailing edge, so perhaps the registration roller bushings are a better possibility. The paper may be stalling while the drum continues to rotate. =^..^=

              Replaced that machine those days and found out only now, at last, time to investigate the troubled machine.

              It turned out that a Hop-Sing drum caused the problem. The gear was not fitted completely into the drumcore and was chafing to something in the machine causing obviously an overload of the Image Unit drive motor.

              When the problem first occurred, that time, I tested this Image Unit in another machine where it did not show the problem - likely not every machine is exactly the same - so I was erroneously believing that the problem was in the troubled machine itself, not in the image unit.

              Confucius says: "Being Too Much Of A Cheapo May Ruin Your Day"
