How do you calibrate the scanner bulb? I get a "Check SPF/RSPF" error message when trying to scan a document through the auto-feed tray and a local service company said that the scanner bulb needs to be calibrated. Any ideas?

Clean the 'black dot' in the centre of the paper tray. There is an optical sensor under that. The tray will lift even without paper, but will go back immediately.
If the scanner stops after 3 pages, check disk space in your computer. If you are scanning in TIFF uncompressed, it takes lot of space. For color and Grey try JPG format, for mono TIFF G4 is the ideal option.

In the Jaguar series, (ar-168d) you will need to get into the simulations; press in rapid succession: # * C * You will know when you did it fast enough when all the display lights go out except the number display, press 41 start/copy. then 6 start/copy. Let the copier do what it needs to.

The scanner will move, keep the lid down, it will let you know when it is done when it goes silent. Then press CA key to clear out and try copies again.

SPF is normal document feder
RSPF is autoreverse document feder.
Select the your document feder instaling the copiers,remove any originals to the glass.

This can be a fault of the controller of the direct current. Apply to service This fault can be not eliminated by you.

The "Check SPF/RSPF" issue can be a couple of things

1. If the scanner only moves from right to left then immediately moves back then the copier needs to be adjusted.
2. If the scanner moves from right to left and tries to feed then displays message then the ADF needs to be cleaned.

Same for the dark issues

1. If you lighten the exposure and the copies come out better then copier needs to be adjusted
2. If you lighten the exposure and the copies come out the same then you may have a few problems check the following;

• Open right side door and look at drum green/blue cylinder . If it is covered with toner (black film) then you might have a drum short.
• Open right side door and look at drum, if it is not covered then you may have a board issue.

While making a copy off the glass listen to the right side of the copier and if you can hear a screeching sound then you could be having an electrical short that is causing your black copies.

Depending on your findings depends on the remedies.

I found the solution to this problem. Whenever the paper jammed in the feed tray, I was pulling the jammed paper out without opening the door of the feed tray. Apparently, PaperPort gets confused and does not know how to proceed. Now when I get a paper jam, I open the door of the feed tray, take out the paper, click on the paper jam error message in PaperPort, reset the paper in the feed tray, and then hit "scan." Works like a charm.

I just fixed this problem on my sharp all in one. The white rollers on the underside of the copier cover were not rolling well. I took an alcohol prep pad and started cleaning them, rolling as I went. A large piece of lint fell out. I put the documents in the document feeder and they fed through like a charm. Hope this helps.

Who and where do you get the idea that you should be able to, to scan in colour you need a colour scanner, yours is not it has a greyscale scanner only.
