Troubleshooting. Correcting Trapezoid Images

Procedure 1: Minor Adjustment of the Fusing Unit Height (front-to-rear)

  1. Print out the SP2-902 Trimming Pattern (value: 10).
  2. If the image is a pattern A trapezoid:
    a) Remove and reinstall the Fusing Unit.
    b) Tighten the left fixing screw while you push up the unit's left side (until it stops).
  3. If the image is a pattern B trapezoid, do the same for the unit's right side.
  4. If the image is still printed out as a trapezoid, do Procedure 2 below.

Procedure 2: Minor Adjustment of the Fusing Unit Position (front-to-rear)

  1. Remove the fusing unit, then add a washer (t = 0.5 to 1.6) to the front fixing screw.
    • This will increase the distance from the mainframe stay.
  2. Check the image.
    • Still NG: Go to the next step.
    • OK: Adjustment Complete.
  3. Add more washers (t = 0.5 to 1.6, as above).
    • Too many washers can cause wrinkling in the paper.
    • Still NG: Go to the next step.
    • OK: Adjustment Complete.
  4. Remove the fusing unit and all the washers added in steps 1 and 2 above.
  5. Then, add washer(s) in the same way for the rear side.
Recommended Washers:

t = 0.5, 07080040Z or 07080040G
t = 0.8, 07080050Z or 07080050G
