BTW, the printer has 270,000 prints on it and a recently installed fuser because of the roller staining recall issues.

Check the tip of the fuser exit switch. Lots of broken ones out there.

Summary: Replace 3 paper feed pulleys and check if the spring under the paper feed assy is missing.

Thank you Kyo Fan. I can't believe it. I've been racking my brain, thinking that it had to be something simple. That link was exactly it. I checked and there is no spring.

The good thing is I've learned a ton about this printer and how it assembles. Thanks again.

There is a bulletin (2LV-0032 in Europe) about replacing some cluthes. In the part that describes how to replace the duplex clutch it is shown how remove the "cassette right guide", the lift motor is mounted in this unit.

Note
There is another bulletin (2LV-0043) that mentiones a broken shaft in this cassette right guide, perhaps you need to replace this part rather than the lift motor.

Don't you just hate it when it's something this simple...Fortunately or unfortunately we have all been there....

P.S. That missing spring can also produce paper multi-feeds..

Cheers.
