Re: Konica c280 Misfeed 3003

Is it happening from other paper drawers & manual feed tray?

I'm sure you checked this but are the clear plastic guides on each paper feed assembly sitting right? It is very common for the tabs on guides to break in these models, then guides don't sit right and can cause intermittent or constant jamming.

You neglected to mention........Does the machine have a sorter/finisher? What is the meter count? Is the paper stopping exiting the fixing unit or before the xfer ? Also, some jamming issues on this model were addressed by firmware updates. Install latest firmware if you have not already done it.
You were smart to replace the fuser for the PS3 jams and the reg clutch was a good idea also.
That being said............My initial guess would be an issue with the reg flag sticking or reg sensor itself.

Thanks for your reply

paper stops at the fuser entrance.

I had an issue with a Konica just kept jamming before fuser entrance. The little spring on the registration sensor needed a bit more tension and the sensor on the door in the middle next to the fuser. Give the spring another turn so the little flag snaps back faster
