Default laser printer issue

Samsung printer ML-2240.
If I load up with say 100 sheets x A4 it will print ok around 75 pages
then it stops picking up the paper, If I top up the paper again to 100
sheets it starts picking up again and stops around the 75 sheet count.

Any thoughts on what to check on?


It normally indicates that the rubber pickup rollers are losing some
"grip". A good clean with soapy water can help. Also get rid of any
paper dust floating about in the printer.

If that does not fix it, or if the roller looks knackered, then you can
get replacements. (ebay etc will leave you change from a fiver!)

There are some youtube vids on the actual change.
