    Well "HELLO again, 1998"!

    I can't believe I'm even going down this road with you, but first, I want you to tell us what else you did?
    Surely, you didn't just replace the developer, run SP2214, and walk out the door?
    Surely, you at least cleaned the optics, Charge roller, and shield glass, and ran the VERY important auto and manual image density settings in SP mode too?
    Surely you did??!!

          Good. You see why it's important, and helpful for you to give as much information as possible in the first place.
          Then, I'm guessing that the issue is either a worn out dev roller gear or a broken Auger gear

            do sp2-207 ( Forced Toner Supply) and sp 3-001( ID Sensor Initial Setting) check sp 2-802 (drum charge roller temperature)

              Did you go back and recheck it after you started having problems. And do not just look at it, I have made that mistake before.

                You may want to check for excessive "dinosaur dust" inside this old geezer.
