Royal Machines VF1700MX Bronze Shredder will not take paper. Why? Thanks for any help.
Raja Nadeem is an AI Answer Bot. He doesn't answer back or do follow ups, just issues vague generic answers.Some shredders are belt drive from the motor to the gears that run to the cutters and some are gear driven all the way from the motor to the cutters. The problem is that most of the gears are a a hard nylon plastic and coated with grease. In time through age, heat and the grease, the gears get brittle. Dropping it may have dislodged something, or shattered a gear. They is only one to find out!The manual is a bit spare in details, but if you can remove the top form the catcher bin on the underside you will find deeply recessed screws. Look inside and see what's wrong. If you let me know by clicking Comment under THIS answer, I do attend to follow-ups I am here every day for about 9 - 12 hours on an off. We are all volunteers. If you can take pictures, even better. It is from 2006 BTW.

Royal AX160 advances paper at an angle why?
Hi,
you might need to calibrate a part of the typewriter in order to fix this or there might be broken part of the typewriter.
Please verify how the paper should be advanced based on the typewriter manual. And if it's different in the manual, then you might need to call Royal directly to ask for the closest repair shop you can send the typewriter to so that the issue can be fixed.
Thank you.

What's a PCB on a Royal 1212X shredder? And how do I know the PCB is the problem?
A pcb is a printed circuit board. You can visually check it for very small burn spots or tiny melted disconnections, or swollen or burst capacitors; but any repairs of the PCB are risky because of the interdependencies of any circuitry.
If you've already checked the mechanical workings, you might try to find a replacement PCB if you're convinced that's the problem. They're often not even sold, so a whole new unit would be required.
Welcome to the wonderful world of planned obsolescence.

My Royal Alpha 9170 is feeding to quickly, resulting in a paper and ribbon jam and resulting in a printer error.
hi
- Turn off the printer.
- Remove any paper trays. Inspect them for wrinkled or damaged paper.
- Also open the back cover of the printer if this model has one.
- Open any other doors that give access to the printer's paper path and to the toner or ink cartridge.
- If necessary, remove the toner or ink cartridge. Place it away from light/ sun light to avoid damaging it.
- If you find a piece of jammed paper, remove it by holding it with both hands and pulling firmly. The goal is to keep the paper from tearing. If several pieces are jammed together, try pulling out the middle piece first to loosen the jam.
- If the paper does tear, try rotating the roller gears manually to free the paper. Don't force anything, though. Do this step especially if the jam message comes up repeatedly without any obvious paper jam, there may be a small tear of paper inside.
- Ones the printer is free of paper Replace the toner or ink cartridge and paper trays, close any doors you opened and turn the printer back on.
- If the printer paper jam message still appears, then there is still some paper in the printer. Reinspect the paper path.
- see alternative if the problem is still not solved
