    E Studio 256 (or 205, 255, 305, 355, 455, 356, 456) misfeeds E010

    ... accordian at the registration roller, with no image on the paper and no latent developed image on the drum.

    I've heard of these drum drive pins shearing, but only saw one for the first time today. The old piece is easy enough to press out of the shaft with vice grips. The hard part was matching the spring pin. It's 2.5mm x 15.5mm and uncommon enough that I don't have a single spare that size. But I do happen to have a #40 drill bit (0.098"), which happens to fit perfectly in the shaft and gear. My drill bit is now 15.5mm shorter.

    I shouldn't have too much difficulty finding replacement pins. =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

    Has it been a week already?

    I've found a simple way to press out the broken bit of spring pin ($4.00 material cost, + 1/2 hour at the drill press):

    First test today. It seems to work nicely. The next improvement will be to include a way to press the new pin. I've got two potential modified designs on the mental drawing board. =^..^=

    Tool version 2

    This one removes the broken pin, and presses in the replacement. You can't see it, but there is a #37 x 2.5mm hole in the opposite end of the screw to hold the pin and drive it in.

    Could you use a new roll-pin as the drift to push the broken pin out at the same time in one operation?

    I've given that some thought, and the answer is yes. =^..^=
