Change the pickup roller
Normal use with good media causes wear. The use of poor media might require more frequent replacement of the pickup roller.
If the device regularly mispicks (no media feeds through), you might need to change or clean the pickup roller. See Clean the pickup roller to order a new pickup roller.
| CAUTION:
|
Failure to complete this procedure might damage the device.
