    Only if you blind, you won´t see if the thing fits or is sliping, hehehe, come on in some cases even a screw driver will do a philips job.... it only depends on the TECH.

    I think it's the tech as well. I use Snap-On screw drivers for all my phillips screws and never once had a problem stripping one out.

    For me it's the fuser screws that seize, especially on Canon. It must have something to do with all that heating/cooling/heating/cooling.

    That, and my internal torque wrench seems to be set at 140 ft/lbs. It takes a conscious effort on my part to avoid over-torquing the cover screws into plastic, or any screws for that matter. "Easy now! It's not a nuclear reactor!"

    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.

    Well, that's new to me. I've noticed those dots for a long time now, but I always thought they were to help you on those rare ocasions where you needed to "turn the screw x times clockwise" - it helped me to count how many turns I've done.

    well, I received my Hozan JIS phillips #2. It's a nice screwdriver but it has more play than my good old Home Depot notched edged titanium drywall bits. Looks nice though!

    I'm a fairly recent convert to the 5.5mm long Ames drivers. It is now the first thing out of the bag when I'm in front of a Ricoh. As for Snap On, that is the dominant brand in my field bag. First thing out of the bag and the last thing back in was always my ~12" #2 phillips driver. That is the best screwdriver I've ever come across. It holds a magnetic charge, fits the screwheads well enough to pull them out or put them back into the hole without dropping off. OTOH, the same size #2 bit on the ~6" shaft isn't worth a nickel. I've swapped and exchanged shafts numerous times. There is something different about my long shaft driver vs. the shorter versions.

    There's a joke in there somewhere, but right now I'm too braindead to find it.
