Re: Weird noise then all lights flashing red on my 2100

2007-05-13 by djon43

Steve, it might have to do with paper weight and mechanical wear. Some
have speculated that 2200 (2100) are damaged when heavy papers are fed
through the top slot. I think I've experienced that with my 3 yr old
2200 ... it did accept without complaint for perhaps 25 sheets of
300gsm, but then stopped accepting. It works reliably with 205gsm.
