    Ricoh C305 Paper Jam at Fuser Entrance (J019)

    In Ricoh C305 Paper Jams at the entrance of Fuser. I have replaced the fuser. The other fuser unit works fine. When I checked the faulty fuser I could not find anything broken or suspected. The tension springs, Arms/Lever, Fuser bearings, Pressure Roller, Sleeve all are OK and just like new but I dont know why paper is jamming at the entrance.

    Fuser is not rotating? Gears are OK. No Sc.

    Any advice?

    Thanks

    (j019) fuser input, most likely the sleeve slips on the pressure roller, and therefore does not advance correctly, the plastics could also be deformed due to the heat, but it has probably run out... I still suggest keeping the energy saving active at 1-2 minutes max. and activate the new fuser with print

        The sleeve could be too dry, and its too hard to be turn by pressure roller

          Yes. When I try to rotate it with pressure springs ON it is too hard to rotate but when I rotate the working fusing it is not that hard. I can rotate with force but the faulty one seems like jammed.

          Lubricating the heating element will work?

              Might be a stupid question but have you checked the fusing entrance guide?
              There are screws there to adjust its position, maybe that might help.
