(This differs from the paper path type of skewing.)

1. 4th/5th mirror assembly is not parallel with the 1st and 2nd scanners.
2. Mirrors are in the wrong position
3. The stubs of the 4th/5th mirror assembly are off the rails.
- Action -

assembly?

replace them.
Are the stubs of the 4th/5th mirror assembly off the rails?
No Yes
