The 1629 Cambridge edition of the KJV introduced a number of changes to the 1611 edition. Many were kept in later KJV editions, but some may have been later abandoned.

The 1638 Cambridge edition of the KJV introduced some other changes to the English text of the KJV. Many of them were kept in later KJV editions, but again some were later abandoned. Here are a couple examples that are no longer followed by most present KJV editions. The change of "messenger" to "messengers" in the 1638 Cambridge edition was likely intentional and may have been intended to make the noun agree in number with the later plural pronouns that seem to refer back to it. The second one in Job is still found in some present KJV editions such as the one printed by the American Bible Society and a few others.

in dust (1769 Oxford, SRB) [1769 Cambridge, DKJB]

The 1743 Cambridge and the 1762 Cambridge editions of the KJV introduced some changes to the KJV, and all of them are not followed today.

The 1769 Oxford edition of the KJV introduced more changes to the KJV. Many of them are followed in most of today's editions, but some of them are not. There are 200-400 differences between the 1769 Oxford English text and the English text in most present KJV editions.

 

The 2002 KJV Study Bible printed by Zondervan was based on the 1873 Cambridge edition edited by F. H. A. Scrivener [The Cambridge Paragraph Bile of the Authorized English Version]. It has many differences with those present editions of the KJV based on the 1769 Oxford since Scrivener went back to many pre-1769 renderings. Zondervan and now Hendrickson Publishers printed a number of editions of the KJV that are based on the 1873 Cambridge edition with two or three spellings changes.

 

errors in 1769 Oxford KJV

Do you mean 1769? The 1769 Oxford edition is considered the one on which most present KJV editions are based, but present KJV editions have a good number of differences or changes from it. The 1769 Cambridge edition followed some changes introduced in the 1769 Oxford, but it kept some of the renderings that were in the earlier 1743/1762 Cambridge editions, and it had a few unique renderings of its own.

The 1769 Oxford is actually said to have had over 100 errors.

Concerning this 1769 edition, Christopher Anderson observed: “There had not been sufficient vigilance in superintendence, as more than a hundred errors have been detected since” (Annals of the English Bible, II, p. 560). Blackford Condit asserted that Blayney’s 1769 edition “was not entirely free from errors, which were discovered to the number of one hundred sixteen, when it was collated for Eyre and Strahan’s edition of the Bible in 1806” (History of the English Bible, p. 397). Calmet’s Dictionary of the Holy Bible confirmed: “In collating the edition of 1806 with Dr. Blayney’s, not fewer than one hundred and sixteen errors were discovered” (I, p. 312). P. W. Raidabaugh also reported that “not fewer than one hundred and sixteen errors were discovered in collating the edition of 1806 with Dr. Blayney’s” (History of the English Bible, p. 61). T. H. Darlow and H. F. Moule observed that the 1769 edition "contains many misprints, probably more than 'the commonly estimated number of 116‘" (Historical Catalogue of the Printed Editions of Holy Scriptures, I, p. 294). The Cyclopaedia of Literary and Scientific Anecdote edited by William Keddie asserted: “What is in England called the Standard Bible is that printed at Oxford, in 1769, which was superintended by Dr. Blayney; yet it has been ascertained that there are at least one hundred and sixteen errors in it” (p. 189). The Cambridge History of the Bible noted that Blayney’s edition “was indeed erroneous in many places” (Vol. 3, p. 464). David Daniell also asserted that the 1769 Oxford standard KJV edition included “many errors,” and that it repeated “most of Dr. Paris’s errors” (Bible in English, pp. 606, 620). Before a committee of Parliament, Thomson stated: “Dr. Blayney’s edition itself is very incorrect; the errors are both numerous and important” (Reports from Committees, Vol. XXII, p. 42). In an overstatement at least concerning omissions, William Loftie asserted that “Blayney’s folio of 1769” “abounds in omissions and misprints: yet this is still considered a standard edition” (Century of Bibles, p. 21). E. W. Bullinger maintained that the 1762 and 1769 editions "made many emendations of the Text; some of them very needless, and also introduced errors of their own, not always those pertaining to the printer" (Figures of Speech, p. 987). Concerning this 1769 Oxford edition, Lea Wilson asserted: “I find therein many errors of considerable importance, and unwarrantable departures from the text of the first edition” (Bibles, p. 128). John M’Clintock and James Strong wrote concerning Blayney’s edition: “But very soon his errors, one by one, came to light; some were corrected at one press, some at another; just has had been the case before; passages really correct were changed in ignorance, and the upshot of it all was, that in a very few years there was no standard again” (Cyclopaedia of Biblical, Theological, and Ecclesiastical Literature, Vol. I, p. 563).
