Cause

Paper dust adheres to the surfaces of the rollers in the LCIT paper feed units, the rollers become smooth, and then slip on the surface of the paper. The paper fails to feed out of the paper tray.

Solution

Three rollers can be replaced with EPDM rollers to improve feed performance. If the customer is using paper with a high ash content, replace the pick-up roller, feed roller, and separation roller in the paper feed units.
