This is a good thing to know!Originally Posted by mo0651
Did you look at the adjustment steps in the manual?? There is a new way of doing bypass adjustment for the last couple of series. You are supposed to put paper in tray and then hit adjustment start.
I would have probably started swapping boards, dissecting wiring harnesses and start looking for "special" FW, to solve this if I was Synthohol (difference is that he is smart enough to ask for help). At least KM is forcing us to keep us on our toes.
Service Manual... What is that?

It's that thing we never look at until we've disassembled a machine down to its component parts... and can't quite figure out how to put it back together again!!
Wow, great info mo0651! ...I just looked up that adjustment.......I also would have addressed an issue like this with parts or maybe swapped out the whole bypass unit.
Manual Bypass Tray Width Adj Procedure:
1. Call the Service Mode to the screen.
2. Touch [Machine] -> [Manual Bypass Tray Width Adj].
6. Touch [Min. Width.].
7. Load the bypass tray with paper having a width of 110 mm.
8. Press the Start key and check that the results are [OK].
* Make the adjustment again if the results are [NG].
Those paper sizes you load in the bypass tray are not USA though. So for future reference , Conversion of 297mm and 110mm below:
A4 297mm x 210mm 11.7inch x 8.3inch
DL (Cseries envelope) 110mm x 220mm 4.33 x 8.66

It may be just me but...as we(techs) almost always blame customers that they didn't read/follow the f. manuals it's perplexing for me to do the same.

ill tell ya, what a bunch of unnecessary BS.
what i mean is A4 is 297mm tall but 110mm is not exactly half width. A4 is 210mm wide so half would be 105mm
in the US letter is 8.5x11. folded its 5.5x8.5 AKA 'statement'
one would think they would make the calibration for A4 length and folded exactly in half 105 for the min adjustment.
i had to cut 100mm off the sheet, lucky i carry a clear scale so i was able to measure 100mm to mark and cut.
but damn, who carries or supplies 297x110 media? its not even a standard size on either side of the great pond.

anyway, it detects 11x17 now and letter & letter/r but not legal 8.5x14" anymore on the bypass. WTF?
in this instance, its irrelevant because they do not nor plan to use legal size anyway. just triggering my OCD on this but i walk away knowing i did follow the RTFM and my original symptom seems solved.
what a trip...
is it beer O'clock yet?
