    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.

      Yeah but I'm not really a technician it's just my job alongside actually using the machines to print. So i always have all the parts in one place which is nice.

        Those are pretty serious machines you have to maintain.
        It is allways a good thing to have spare parts. They will be replaced sooner or later.
        For the fact that you are not a technician, I suggest that you call one when time arrives.
        What you can do is clean dust from outside, and even from inside along paperpath. Blow out paperpath sensors and clean the rollers.
        Leave the replacement of parts to the techician; you are not paid for that since your job is print operator.

          Yeah i think that i should do that. I think installation of many parts will be possible by myself just from learning from the manual and other people here who have done it before. But some things I definitely won't bother with especially if the part is a couple hundred bucks.

            What we usually have in "high" stock in our workshop:

            Drums, Developers, DF Paper Feed Rollers, Fusing Units, Transfer Belts.

            I'd recommend getting a spare set of Drums for the machines with the highest usage
            Get some Paper Feed Rollers, havent checked but often multiple machines and series share the same type of rollers.
            Get a few Developer Dust Kits. They cost like 20$ and provide you with the developer "dust" stuff. You can often fix developer issues with this for very cheap.

            Call a few copier repairs near you if they have parts for those machines that they maybe want to get rid of.
            Many companies will just throw them out sadly but you could often use those parts partly for fixing up 5 developers from one "bad" one depending on what the issue was.
            You can get parts this way for cheap too, sometimes there will only be a small "symbolic" transaction
