Thanks for all the replies, folks! I see most of you pointed to the oneways... That was my thought also, after the feed rollers were replaced, since I have seen those go bad on other brands and models.
Yes, we replaced those, still jams. I WILL take a closer look at that white gear-to-belt-to-motor area. We did replace the motor, but I didn't look real close at the gear on the other shaft that it drives.
Also, I was studying the manual some more and I noticed this section:
>>>>>>
3.11.9 SEPARATION ROLLER PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT
The position of the drive gear for the separation roller can be changed in order to
change the amount of pressure exerted by the separation roller. This adjustment
can be done:
When feeding special paper, especially thick paper.
When the customer is experiencing feed problems.
1. Remove the feed unit (
3.11.8).
2. Loosen the hex screw [A].
NOTE:
The separation roller gear [B] is positioned at the groove before
shipping.
3. To adjust for thick paper, move the separation roller gear [B] to the left to
decrease the pressure.
or-
To correct misfeeds, move the separation roller gear to the right to increase the
pressure.

Has anyone out there ever made this adjustment? Did it help?
Thanks again, everyone!
