・ The modified guide plate Type BX could cause “poor transfer on leading edge”
as a side effect. If this side effect is confirmed, switch the guide plate back to
the mass production Type AD, or replace M0776527 with Type BF: M0776522,
which was modified to prevent this side effect.
※ M0776523, M0776524, and M0776525 are components of M0776522.

[Reference]
When ordering a Guide Plate, refer to the following table for the correct
combinations. [See RTB RM077041 for details on Type AX.]
Screws are included with the Guide Plate.
Screw M0776520 (x2) must be ordered separately.
The following table describes the combinations of the Guide Plate and the
Intermediate Cover.
There are no additional screw holes in the printers manufactured before
September 2010 to install the "Cover: Intermediate Transfer: Ass'y" for the Type
BX Guide Plate. Printers manufactured after September 2010 have additional
screw holes.
When installing the Cover M0776720 at the factory, the distance between ITB
and the Guide Plate is adjusted for each unit using Mylar sheets, which differ in
their quantity and thickness according to the gap. Do not remove these Mylar
sheets when replacing Type AD Guide Plate with Type AX Guide Plate.
Do not use Type AD Cover M0776720 for Sep 2010 or later units.
Use Type BF,
which has a much higher ability to counter "poor transfer on leading edge".
