what is the most bizarre jam you have ever seen?

just pulled a tiny Lego man of the duplex on the desktop Konica printer.

Those ladies called me for paper jams on big analogue Toshiba...it turns out that they forgot a whole knife in the machine from their previous intervention.

A mouse. Got wedged between gears. Not a fun day...

I remember a post from one of our CTN techs who said they found a note on copier that said “A pen is stuck in machine causing jams”.
The handwritten note was not carefully written with spacing, and caused quite a stir when pointed out what the note looked like and not what it was meant to say.

How about this one on a bizhub PRO951? Look carefully ... it's there. I took the registration sensor off three times before seeing it. The paper is statically clinging to the upper guide plate, and would "dance" ... when I discovered it:

And this is on a bizhub PRESS 1100. We knew exactly where it was ... that is: in the duplex path under the fuser. It took over two hours to get there. My question is: "... and why do you need to duplex labels? It's just backing paper on the back."

I think mine has to be a hot cross bun in a clocking in machine, the cleaner took her son into work in a bakery, he got bored...no idea how he managed to get a bun into a slot just about wide enough for 160gsm card....but he did it

I used to go to a hotel, where the cat used to sleep on the top of their A4 copier, full of cat hair...the cat was also a vicious sod, you couldn't go near the copier whilst it was sleeping, and everyone was too scared to move it, I found out the hard way...deep scratches down my arm :D

A family of mice living on top of the transfer belt at a restaurant. Found one dead being fed into trans belt cleaning blade and other baby mice scattered when I took trans belt out. Needless to say the machine had to be replaced not just for mouse crap & pee everywhere but the wires had been chewed and machine was doing some weird stuff. Hard to believe they can squeeze through a tiny opening to get into copier. Heard they don't have skeleton system which allows them to squeeze through tiny cracks!

The children had copied eggs on a scanner glass.
The service call was adf not working..

We had a brand new BH808 the kept having duplex jams and each time it was a screw that had fallen in. Finally figured out that the screws in the the duplex section in the door were falling out on a brand new machine and had to replace that part of the door.

Went to a call for Adf jams. One of the managers saw me pull out a straw from a canned air and he said "Oh that's where it went yesterday."

Pulled a Christmas decorated acrylic fingernail from a paper tray feed assembly.....in April.

=^..^=I get lots of those stuck labels, from customers printing medicine labels.

As for that little piece of paper, bought a blower and go to town on every paper path and sensor

Once I had a call for a machine not working, go there and the copier is full of water...

Guess that is normal for doing business in NYC
