[ Inspected by Canon Inc. ]
Description
During a booklet-printing job, a Finisher unit failed to pull the 2nd sheet of paper back to the process tray correctly, consequently causing the sheet to misalign
within the stack. Worse yet, a misaligned sheet of paper was not stapled in case the staple mode was set.
Cause
Since the upper and lower stack delivery rollers lacked pressure, the 2nd sheet and later sheets were not pulled back to the process tray correctly. In order to
adjust the pressure applied to the upper and lower rollers in handling the 2nd sheet and later sheets, and thereby prevent the above symptom, the Finisher
Controller Software was changed from Ver. 4.01 to Ver. 5.01.
Field Remedy
1. Check the version of the Finisher Controller Software; if it is earlier than Ver. 5.01, upgrade the software to Ver. 5.01.
2. Referring to "Procedure for Adjusting Height of Swing Roller in Swing Unit", perform the height adjustment and then run a booklet copying.
Reference: For the 1st sheet of paper, the swing guide goes down under its own weight and applies pressure to the upper and lower stack delivery rollers, and
thus the sheet is pulled back to the process tray. For the 2nd sheets and later sheets of paper, however, the swing guide is lowered by the motor pulse control.
