Size Change Plate Width Adjustment

08JK-087

When using special types of paper, such as coated paper, the paper size may be slightly different from the standard paper sizes, and this may cause the problems. Adjusting the width between the size change plates can solve the following problems due to the paper size.

If the paper size is larger than a standard paper size:

Paper jams may occur if the space between the size change plates and the paper is too narrow. Make the space between the size change plates and the paper wider.

If the paper size is smaller than a standard paper size:

The entire printed area may be shifted vertically to the top or bottom, or may be slanted if the space between the size change plates and the paper is too wide. In this case, make the space between the size change plates and the paper narrower.

Direction of Paper Being Transported

Normal	Shifted	Slanted

This mode can be set when the POD Deck Lite-A1 is attached. (See "Paper Deck Unit-C1/POD Deck Lite-A1 (imageRUNNER ADVANCE C9280 PRO/C9270 PRO)" or "Paper Deck Unit-C1/POD Deck Lite-A1 (imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7270/C7260).")

Press the open button to open the POD Deck Lite-A1.

IMPORTANT
If the machine is in the Sleep mode (the touch panel is not displayed, and only (Energy Saver) is lit), you may not be able to open the paper deck. In this case, press (Energy Saver) to reactivate the machine, and then press the open button.

NOTE
It may take some time for the paper deck to open, even if you press the open button.

Load a stack of paper into the paper deck, so that the height of the paper stack does not exceed 3/8" (10 mm).

If you are using LTR paper, load a second stack of paper on the side of the first paper stack, so that the outer size change plate is not tilted.

IMPORTANT
If you have loaded a second stack of paper for fine adjustment, make sure to remove it after adjusting the outer size change plate. Leaving the second stack of paper in the paper deck may lead to a paper deck malfunction. For more information, see step 14.

Close the POD Deck Lite-A1.

Wait until the open button stops flashing.

CAUTION
When closing the paper deck, be careful not to get your fingers caught, as this may result in personal injury.
