Hi Guys,
I run Productolith C2S in 14pt. and 16 pt. for our postcards. I never had trouble running the 14pt on either machine ---- Canon C700 w/ POD Deck Lite & Canon C850 w/ Multi-Drawer Paper Deck. The 16pt would feed fine on the 700 but not so well on the 850. Now neither weight run on either machine. I can't get more than one sheet without a jam.
It's not really a jam -- more of a misfeed as it can't feed the sheets. The sheets stick together, tend to stay in clumps, and have quite a lot of friction. Hand fanning doesn't help. I tried hand fanning with an ionizing hair dryer and it helps *slightly*, but it's not my answer.
I don't think it's the feeders as they are both different and one is fairly new. My guess is either a paper issue or a weather / humidity issue. We are in a large 5,000 sqft. retail location and are subject to weather and humidity fluctuations. This year seems the worst.....
Would a good anti-static jogger such as the Duplo UJ-500AS help? (We run 13x19 sheets). There are other times a jogger would be nice, but so far it hasn't been absolutely necessary. If this would fix my feed issues I'd be more than happy to get one...
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Joe
