1.1.1.6.13 Color displacement/scratches on image with 173mm intervals due to move of the host machine after installation

0031-8789

[ Verified by Canon Inc. ]

Symptom

After moving the host machine to another place after installation, color displacement [a] and/or scratches on image with 173mm intervals [b] may occur.

The arrow [c] indicates the feed direction.

Cause

Vibration from move of the host machine upsets the alignment of ITB and color displacement occurs.

If the fixing belt comes in contact with the separation plate of the inner delivery unit during the move of the host machine, a small scratch is made on the fixing belt

and this generates scratches on image.

Service work

1) From Service mode > Mode List > COPIER > Function > INSTALL > Execute "INIT-ITB" to adjust ITB neutral position.

2) Go to Settings/Registration > Adjustment/Maintenance > Adjust Image Quality > Auto Correct Color Mismatch > and press "Start."

When scratches on image appears go to the step 3), when scratches on image does not appear go to the step 4).

3) From Service Mode > Mode List > COPIER > Function > CLEANING > Execute "FXD_CL_E" to refresh the fixing belt.

4) Output the image having shown the symptom and check that the symptom does not occur.

[Caution] When the host machine has to be moved to another place after installation, carry it out referring to " Installation > When moving the host machine to

another place after installation, execute the operation shown below." in Service manual. If the host machine is moved without referring it, it may lead to breakage

of parts/faulty images.
