Paper jams with double-sided printing on Ricoh Aficio MF C2051

This noise you are referring to is caused by the fuser, the lubrication dries out.
You can simply replace the fuser sleeve ass'y this will stop the noise & jamming.

No, that is not for your machine.

NO! Wrong model completely. What you need is D1064002 Fusing Unit (EU) is you are going to replace the entire unit. D1064002 has been replaced by D1064006. Here is a UK source if you don't want to go directly to Ricoh-EU. Ricoh Aficio Fuser D1064006 MPC2051, MPC2551 Original

Hello!

I am using the Aficio MF C2051 copy-printer.

The problem is that the printer has recently started to jam when printing on both sides of the paper. Before the paper jam occurs, the printer makes a loud noise that sounds as if the paper sheet is no longer being transported properly by a roller in the printer and the rubber rollers on the paper are slipping. This is a scraping, creaking humming noise. The paper jam usually occurs in such a way that I have to open the rear flap and then open the inner flap in the machine with the blue lever "B". Behind it there is a sheet of paper that is printed on one side and where the toner is not yet fixed but about 3/4 of the toner has been applied.

When I remove the jammed paper, printing usually continues, but after about 20-30 sheets the problem occurs again.

I suspect it has something to do with the feed into the fuser-unit.

Does anyone have any experience with the machine or the problem? What can I do?

I'm happy about any hints

you need to look at the jam code in sp, if you have any j019, it is more convenient to replace it complete, get the price quoted by ricoh, we pay it around 140-150 euro....remove the duplex and turn it upside down, and shake it a little, so any broken pieces of plastic from the bill gates will come out

jam code in sp,

What does this mean? Where can I find it?

It's the service mode on your device, once in service mode you can access the recent jam locations and error codes, amongst other things, but there are lots of things an untrained person could do wrong in service mode and cause a lot of problems if they don't know what they're doing
