Why is my copier printing with a weird red tone?
Question by yuppiemommy: Why is my copier printing with a weird red tone?
Hello,
We have a HP7210 (an allin one but we use it for only fax & copier). It is printing in a weird reddish tone. I have done a toner check on it and when I do the toner check – all our new btw – it prints perfectly but try and get it to copy something and it turns it a weird cast of red. (the letters not the entire page). I have checked HP website but they do not address this. Thanks for any help!

Low level of blue and yellow can cause that. If that is the case red is the strongest and most visible. Another reason could be printer calibration. See in the manual if there is something mentioning printer calibration. It is a test which shows if printer heads of different cartridges are printing on top of each other mixing the ink into wanted colors. Process it self is automated.

Why is my copy machine printing off-set?
Question by : Why is my copy machine printing off-set?
Basically the copy machine at my work place just happened to end up being one of my responsibilities, great! (sarcasm). It copies and receives faxes fine for tray 2 (8.5″x11″) as well as the bypass tray (11″x17″). However tray two is yellow paper which we use for something else. Tray 1 which is used to receive our faxes and make copies (8.5″x11″) is printing out our faxes with the top left corner about 2 inches down and over to the right. So the left margin and top margin have about 2 inches or so of blank white space and the right side and bottom of our copies and faxes are cut off by about 2 inches as well. The settings on both Tray 1 and Tray 2 are exactly the same….I triple checked, even screwed up Tray 2’s settings and changed them back and it still works fine. Tray 1 however will not print out correctly not matter what setting it is set to (there are a lot of options in different menus and I have tried as many combinations as I can) This started when a co-worker was messing with it, and of course she has no clue what she changed. I restarted the machine, I read all 5 manuals front to back, I tried every setting I could find and have about 250 screwed up copies to prove it.
Ricoh Aficio 2018D…help!!!!
Don was correct about the guides in the physical tray. The paper in both trays were placed exactly the same however when tray 2 was put into tray 1’s slot everything print correctly. I changed tray 1 around and nothing really worked, paper jammed, I fit it in sideways in landscape position and now it prints everything to scale on landscape…better than nothing I guess. Thanks…! :X

First, try to eliminate the paper tray itself. Swap tray 2 for tray 1. Pull the tray out and lift it up slightly while pulling. While the trays are out of the machine, look into the machine to see if there is any paper stuck back behind the trays.
Compare the side and rear paper guides of the trays. Do they line up the same when set to the same paper size? (Sometimes the gears of the side or rear guides can skip a tooth, and the machine will not sense the paper size correctly).
If you slide tray 2 into the tray 1 position, and your faxes come out correctly, there is something wrong with the tray 1 paper tray itself.

I have two Xerox printing machines for my business. Is there any computer software or a coin machine I can use?
Question by : I have two Xerox printing machines for my business. Is there any computer software or a coin machine I can use?
I have other services at my business and I need to know how to have customers use the copier without my help so that I can spend more time working other services. Is there any cards that i can give out to customers so that they can swipe for copies?Is there a way to add a debit card to my machines?

Actually no. Neither can you trust customers to be honest. But I do know that it is tedious to do such thing, so get the cheapest manpower you can find – students/whatever, station them to handle the machine and record the sales and collect the money.
Every Xerox comes with a click charge number, so you will actually know at the end of the day whether the amount collected tallies with the copies made.
