Common Ricoh Copy Machine Repair Areas

By Anna Fox


Every organization has embraced the use of machines and pieces of equipment. The aim of doing this is to increase their productivity through saving of time and ensuring quality of work. From time to time, these pieces are however susceptible to damages which may bring about massive losses in terms of time and the resources spent. This is the reason why companies have introduced Ricoh copy machine repair services to cater for such eventualities. Below are some of the issues encountered by these systems and their solutions.

Among the most common problems that are experienced by almost all users is paper jams. This comes from dirt, using the wrong type of paper or if the rollers feeding the equipment are worn out. Undertake cleaning of the equipment to get rid of dirt and especially dust particles that may have stuck. Additionally, occasionally replace the rollers and use only the specified type of paper.

The device can be producing faded items. This not only annoys but it leads to a lot of wastage especially when producing in bulk. The printing density might have been set way too low than it should be. Again it can result from insufficient amounts in the cartridges. Make sure you set the density a bit higher.

During the production, ghosting can be experienced. When an image other than the one that is supposed to appear on the pieces does, this is what is referred to as ghosting. Check the power outlet that is being used. Remove the piece of equipment and fix another if the same is experienced after that then the problem is with the power source which should be changed.

The item might be easily smeared when a hand is run over the produced piece. It results from damage to the fuse assembly, and the toner might be default which means it is letting out a lot of ink and there is a spillage in the device. The solution is to fix the cartridges periodically and adequately clean them to eradicate any spill that might have occurred.

It is also a common thing to have a 50.4 error message appearing in the middle of their working. The reason behind this is the use of a UPS source of power instead of a direct socket connection. It requires quite an amount of power for the heating and general operation which means that it will not be functional when connected on a UPS instead of the direct connection.

Additionally, the device may end up printing from the wrong tray. Depending on a desired outcome, one usually set the process to use a particular tray. This might go in the reverse direction and thus a loss of resources and time. Check the settings on the PC and also those that specify issues with the size on it when this occurs.

Lastly, unintended lines might be seen on the product. When there are some particles on the reader lens, they might be transferred to the document being reproduced in the form of these lines. The item becomes a waste from this nature of a default. Replace the drum and ensure that at regular intervals of time there is some cleaning of the lens to eliminate these lines causing particles.
