    Did you change torque limiter with roller?

      Yes, those feed tyres are basically the same.

      Like steele said, you'll probably need to change the torque limiter.

      Could also be the feed guide which has two little plastic bits that apply pressure, I've had several where one side breaks off and causes intermittent jams.

      Also, remove the feed ass'y and play with the mechanism, when they get older the feed tyres don't return all the way back to position and can cause misfeeds. (i've only had success fixing one, most of the time it's unrepairable)

      Finally, and I don't think this is your issue, the feeler that's part of the feed unit can break it's axle when someone pulls the tray out and immediately slams it back in. This normally causes 'no paper' but if it's still in position and falling out with the vibration of the machine, it could stop the process and cause a jam.

      Hope something in this helps you...

      ...good luck.

        If you have not replace the rollers, you might want to do so. The one way bearing in the feed roller can go bad and when the shaft turns, the roller does not. The pick up roller drives off the feed roller.

          Yes I've seen a brand new feed roller that the one way bearing was bad and cause myself some problems when I replaced it.

            You can use AF03-0090, 1090 and 2090 in most of the MFP range upto the new 03s (except pickup in 01s and 03s, which are different). Also, some of the feed assemblys are the same or very similar.

              Correction, maybe 01s to 03s. Parts look similar but might not work, so far they have for me.

                Thanks but would the the whole feed assembly from a MP C2800 fit a C2500?

                  Probably just the feed clutch if the rollers are fine. Can't recall having this on a MPC2500 but sometimes the white holder (you need to remove when swapping the feed(pickup roller) can block the mechanism. You can remove it and just use clips like the previous models.

                    just realised I had a similar fault not long back and it was due to the white T shape holder that holds the pickup and feed tyres in place.
                    When I took it off, there's a rim moulded to the white T and it had uneven wear. It was causing the rollers every now and then to slip and cause an intermittent jam (usually only when doing a large print job)

                      Dear sir,

                      Would have the spare parts of the Ricoh MP C2500, I have to change the rollers on it too.
                      Is there a way to turn off the J001 signal or alarm has been set to 0 in JAM Alarm.

                      I live in Switzerland, so looking for a cheap UK / US supplier.

                      Thanks, AH
