I've got a Samsung ML-1210, only a couple of years old, very little-used
(I'd be surprised if I've printed 500 pages off it), but now the gravity
paper feed is pretty much kaput. Apparently the rubber gripper doesn't:
after a couple of abortive attempts, where you can see the paper move a
fraction of an inch downward, I get the error light, and the foremost
piece of paper has a very light "scorch" mark at its base, just the size
of the rubber gripper.
I've tried rehydrating the gripper with water, but that hasn't helped.
The local Samsung repair place has never seen one of these, and for the
same reason that they won't see mine, I'm sure: it's $90 just to look at
it, and the printer isn't worth that much.
Does anyone have any further suggestions as to what steps I can take? I
can force it to take a single page at a time by judicious jiggling, but
I really don't want to be a slave to my printer.
Thanks,
Chris Jones
