Hi everyone,
As I was printing a couple of hundred questionnaires on the C280, there would be an intermittent J-3003 jam with the paper jamming at the 2nd transfer roller. It appears to be happening at random intervals, and it doesn't happen with short run jobs. The machine had been working continuously for 2 hours and the area around the fuser had become hot to the touch (nothing extreme though), if that matters at all. The paper would get folded in a z-fold pattern at the 2nd transfer roller. Sometimes though whatever is causing this I assume also causes some sheets would come out heavily wrinkled, and you can hear some abnormal noise when this occurs.
I've read some older threads regarding that particular jam code suggesting that the 2nd transfer roller needs to be replaced, which normally I'd agree with, but the total counter on the machine is 135k! Which means that the 2nd transfer roller is nowhere near its EOL. I am attaching a few pictures of the 2nd transfer roller, maybe you can pick out what's wrong if it's there.
TIA!
