The problem most often encountered by many friends when using printers everyday is not how to use them, but 'paper jams'! Users who are slightly more basic can also manually remove the paper jam, but if it is a small white user, 'paper jam' Means that the print product cannot be used.
As the most common problem on the printing device, why does the printer frequently jam? How to solve the jam?
Today, let us answer your questions from the solution of paper jams, to the cause of paper jamming, and our daily evaluation experience.
First of all, we need to understand what is known as 'paper jam'! The printing equipment jam mainly occurs in the paper feeding unit (the entire process of feeding, printing, and ejecting paper) because the paper cannot be straightened in the paper feeding unit according to the established route. Problems with print operations.
Secondly, according to the experience of mass printing products that we usually test, paper jams in printing equipment mainly occur at the paper-out stage after printing, such as overheating and deformation of laser-printed paper products, resulting in excess ink on inkjet paper products. Paper jams and so on.
Of course, there are also a few because the paper can't fit tightly into the paper feeding unit.
First, let us solve the problem of paper jam first
When a problem occurs with a paper jam on your printing device, the correct method should be to turn off the power of the printing device instead of opening the device's consumable magazine. If it is a laser printing device or a copying copier device, the user is required to wait for five minutes. After waiting for the fuser unit to fully dissipate heat, you can start to take the paper jam operation, otherwise it will be hot!
After turning off the power and waiting for the heat dissipation to finish, please remove the consumables from the printing device. At this point, you may already see a 'freeze' jam in the printer. The user can decide whether to pull the paper from outside or inside according to the paper jam. , but we recommend that the user removes the paper along the exit direction to reduce the difficulty of picking up the paper. In this case, be careful to prevent the paper from leaving inside the printer.
The most important thing is: If there is some scrap paper that cannot be removed, you can install the consumables to turn on the power, and let the printing device 'spoon' it out of the printer through the operating principle of booting the device.
Second, how to solve the problem
Paper jams are often caused by the medium being printed on the road and eventually causing jams in the printing equipment. We have mainly encountered the following four conditions to make the paper go up.
The maximum probability is that foreign matter has fallen into the printer's paper feed unit. The printer has to feed paper and eject paper. Therefore, foreign matter can easily fall into the printer's interior from these channels. Therefore, when using the printer, pay attention to the paper clip. Staples, buttons, rubber bands, etc. are things that can easily fall into the printer.
This situation often occurs in small white users, but it is also the situation that most causes the printing equipment to be wounded, ranging from paper jams to heavy papers.
Followed by the use of inferior paper, poor quality paper surface is too smooth or easy to lose fiber powder, plus some users of the use of the environment is poor.
After the printer has been used for a period of time, the rubber surface of the pickup roller retains paper dust and dust, which reduces the strength of the crepe paper, resulting in slippage and the phenomenon of non-feeding or paper feeding. At this time, the user needs to be powered off. Using a damp rag to clean the pick-up roller, there is a noticeable relief from frequent paper jams.
The aging of the pickup roller causes the unevenness in the strength of the upper paper, causing the paper to go in, causing the paper to be “pulled” by the bad pickup roller. Eventually, the paper jam occurs. If you usually print too much, you will find your own printing equipment. Frequent paper jams occur. In all likelihood, it is due to the aging of the pick-up rollers. At this time, you only need to spend a few yuan to more than ten yuan on the Internet to buy a pick-up roller.
Users often have different print media formats. Frequent replacement of print media also increases the probability of paper jams on the printing device. The main reason is that the active paper jam block on the printer's paper feed unit is too loose, which increases the paper's left-right swing. Can reduce the frequency of changing the print media, if you fixedly use a format of print media in the future, you can use a strip of paper to fix the paper baffle to reduce the paper left and right swing.
Third, which kind of printer is not easy to jam?
Many friends always ask us when choosing printing equipment Which kind of printing equipment does not jam the paper? Here, we reply in a unified manner: No! As long as it is a printing device, paper jam occurs. This is mainly related to the design and production process of the printing equipment manufacturer.
If there is a low probability of jams in the printing device, we recommend that users understand the design of the paper path of the printing device. The paper path of the printing device is a paper drawing path resulting from linear feeding of paper feed, printing, and paper discharge. The smaller the shorter the angle, the lower the probability of jams on the printing device.
At present, the paper path of printing equipment mainly includes L-type, U-type, and S-type. From the literal point of view, we can see that there is a low probability of jamming in the printing equipment using the L-type paper path, and the use of the S-type paper path design The product not only has a high probability of jamming but is not easy for users to take paper jams.
Fourth, double-sided printing easier jam is true?
There are rumors circulating that double-sided printing is more likely to cause jams. This is not true after our usual mass test printing equipment! This argument is based on the fact that double-sided printing paper path is longer and jamming is more likely to occur. phenomenon.
Although it is an indisputable fact that the double-sided printing paper path is long, the double-sided printing is much shorter than printing a single-sided total paper path, and the two-sided printing requires two sets of pick-up wheel systems. The aging speed of the two sets of pickup rollers of the material does not aggravate the jamming phenomenon as does a single set of pickup rollers.
Then why is there anyone still convinced that? The main reason is that the weight of the paper is that the paper travels inside the printer at the time of double-sided printing. The “∞” type is used. When printing thick or heavy paper, the pickup roller cannot afford it. With more resistance, paper jams frequently occur.
Editor's Note:
Printing paper jams is an issue that everyone will be anxious to get angry. When your printing device jams, don't be cranky. Please follow the steps above.
The phenomenon of paper jam occurred in the printing devices we reviewed was rare. The main reason is that home or commercial printing equipment has reached a higher level in terms of material, process, and design, so long as it is used in the right way, To maintain the printing equipment, I believe 'it' will not bring you too much trouble, but will help you to succeed.
