Wondering if anyone has heard of KIP coming out with something? I'm having a crazy time with shorter length prints (21,24" etc.. ). After about 4 prints dropping down, the rest get hung up trying to slide down under the previous. Then it's just a train wreck from there. Thought I maybe had mylar strips set wrong possibly, but I even took those out and still have the problem. Seems to me that if the two stop trays were able to be extended out further, shorter length prints could drop and lay flat one on top of the other?? Am I missing something entirely?? Anyone else had this problem? Longer length stuff fits just right under the lip of the 3 exit trays in the rear preventing paper hitting each other, as long as you adjust the stop trays accordingly.

I have over 30 installs of 3000 printers here in Indiana. I have not had any complaints as you describe. I'd suggest revisting the installation manual that came with the printer and double check that you put the rear guides on in their correct position.

Speaking from experience, I've had flakey issue come up after installations that had to do with me not attaching a part on correctly.

This is one of the most major issues with this plotter, I can't believe that noe of your 30 installs has this problem, everyone here in Cali that has one of these seems to have this issue.

I would have to agree with the guest, the 3000 stacking issue is very real, there is no realistic way you could have never seen it with 30 machines in the field.

The fix I like the best is to get some self-adhesive velcro. Take the white guides (the ones that guide the paper into the bottom tray) and raise them by taking them out of their tabs and sticking them on higher up the frame with the velcro. Sounds like a Mickey Mouse fix, and it is, but it does work.

We had that on two installs. We got out the static gard, sprayed it in exit area, past the fuser.

Problem resolved
