printing very thin paper on J75 problem

wonderings

Well-known member
I am trying to print a job on a very light weight bond stock. I do not have the exact info on the paper, its stuff we have had sitting around for a long time with no package. It is lighter then standard stock bond paper (78gsm) we carry. I have run this before on our DC260. I would sometimes have the problem I am having now, and it usually seemed to be happening when the room was very hot. Now I am trying to run this on our J75 and am getting the same issues I have had before. I have run this job before (about 2 months ago) on the J75 with no issue.

Now my question, is there anyway to adjust the fuser temperature to lower it for this paper so I can get this done rather then waiting a day and trying it first thing in the morning when the J75 is "cold"? I remember when demoing a C75 on some tough stocks we had that they boosted something in the machine to print on a thick textured stock, it was in a maintenance area.

Anyone have any ideas, or have had similar problems and found a solution?

 
not sure how helpful this would be but you could try creating custom profile and adjust image transfer....

we had to adjust image transfer for a nevertear like stock on our 770 way back....

Thats what i was looking for, I just could not remember the name of it or where to do it.

I had to run the job on our old DC260 which handles the paper fine without any changes. Now my question is on the J75, should I be decreasing the image transfer percentage or going up? I am guessing I would go down?

yeah i think you'd need to go down....
trial and error i reckon :p
 
Try to change the paper type to recycled. That might help. It is not optimized but it usually works for thin papers.
 
I will run some tests with that setting to when I get this job again. Thanks for the input and suggestions.
