Location : FEEDER ASSEMBLY
Subject : PREVENTING GUIDE STOPPER BREAKAGE
Reason : To communicate that the shape of the guide stopper has been changed to prevent it from breaking.
Also, to communicate field measures to take if the stopper breaks in the field.
Details :
If the guide stopper breaks, there are cases where the buffer roller stops the copy paper, and a
stationary jam occurs.
The guide stopper determines the stop position of the flapper, but this stopper breaks as a result of the
repeated opening and closing operation of the flapper. If the stopper breaks, the flapper makes
contact with the buffer roller, and a load is placed on the rotation of the buffer roller. In the worst
case, the rotation of the buffer roller is halted, and a stationary jam occurs. (Fig. 1)
The flapper makes
contact with the buffer
roller.

Durability of the guide stopper was improved by strengthening it with the addition of a rib (Fig. 2).

9) When sticking the guide stopper to the guide, the protruding section on the inner side of the guide
stopper must be inserted into the square opening on the guide. Therefore, perform the following
operations.
i) Hold the side A of the guide stopper between the fingers, and face the side B toward the square opening
on the guide (Fig. 8).
ii) While taking care that the side A of the guide stopper does not rise causing the guide stopper tape and
the guide to make contact, pass the side B of the guide stopper through the space between the flapper
and the guide, pushing it in the direction of the arrow 1 (Fig. 9) until it stops. After this, slowly lay the
side A onto the guide.
