Degradation of feeder performance, multiple feeds, stoppages, etc. indicate a need to change the pre-separation pad. Certain paper types such as carbonless paper or newsprint, or failure to clean regularly, and/or use of non-recommended cleaning solvents can shorten the pre- separation pad life.
For additional pre-separation pads, see the section entitled, “Supplies and Consumables” later in this chapter.
