Double Feeding 1

Cause

Paper sticking together or reduced ability to separate due to paper powder on the feed roller

This is likely to occur if:

  • When using paper that readily sticks together, such as special or coated papers

  • When using paper that easily generates paper powder

  • When using thick papers that lessen the effect of fanning paper via air assist

Solution

  1. Remove the loaded paper from the paper tray and fan it.

    If paper fails to feed again, go to step 2.

  2. Use SP1-920-001 to 003(LCIT Tray Fan Duty Adjustment) to increase the feed level blower duty and attach the tab sheet holder (A3LCIT only).

    If paper fails to feed again, go to step 3.

  3. Set the feed level pick-up assist setting to OFF (2) via SP1-923-001 to 004(LCT Pickup Assist ON/OFF) (A3LCIT only).

    If paper fails to feed again, go to step 4.

  4. Clean the feed rollers (pickup roller, paper feed roller, separation roller). (Same for A3LCIT /Bypass Tray /Cover Interposer Tray)
