Eric,

Most printer feed problems are caused by the feed rollers over time
getting paper dust imbedded in the rubber and they become very slick.
With a damp cloth clean the rollers all the way arround. If that does
not work then you can find a spray rubber restorer that will do a good
job.

Hope this helps,
Jim Killmaster
