We have had a few of these hoppers fail with various issues. Had some time this week to throw this together and I hope it can help someone in the future. Enjoy

How about waiting a bit before making snarky comments?

The main problem with these hopper/toner supply units are the photo sensors underneath where spilled toner WILL fall into! sort of causes a chain reaction of starved developer because sub hopper never askes for toner.

Make it PDF or zip that way it should work.

1 MB is the limit on our attachments to threads. We're also limited by file type. It appears that you found a workaround.

the troubleshooting info is helpful i wasnt aware of the sliding gear problem. we wear black pants at work so i generally dont like turning the hoppers upside down

The interesting part was the springs were put on backwards from the factory. Of the 4 springs, 2 were backwards.
Not a fan of the "i series" machines

Interesting. At the bottom of the attachment windows, it shows this max file size chart based on file type:
max size.JPG

Curious what this list is referring to then.

When I click on the attach paper clip there is a ? in a blue circle near the top right. Clicking on it I get a similar list except it has 2 additional columns, max width and max height.

I took a cropped screenshot, I see those columns as well slim.
