When printing using the Frontier 570, the papers jam in the head and dryer section.

 

The rollers suddenly stop spinning and make a noise, like they are forcing or something. There's no gears broken, it has been verifed over and over. Many have been changed too.

 

If the cover of the drying section is removed, the rollers of the head seem to spin more easily, but if i touch the black rollers where the paper get out, pressing them to slightly make a resistance, those rollers stop spinning and it make a loud jammed noise.

 

It seem that using sillicone spray on the plastic parts where the shaft of the rollers are supported help for a bit, but the problem come back.

 

My assumption is that something somewhere is old (the machine have 10 years) and create a resistance on the rollers. When paper have to be moved, it is simply too much for the motor whole head and dryer unit.

 

Anyone experimented the same problem, and could pin point me to a solution?

Look at the rollers, are they swollen?

 

Meter the output voltage from the motor? is it the correct voltage? output voltage is written on the motor.

 

Oh the motor might not be the fault but you have something to work with.

Check that the mounting axel of item 327C1061322A really is proper/correct mounted. When people are going to exchange that gear they try to make the "easy" way, instead of dismounting the whole dryer they unscrew the small axel that fixes 327C1061322A. When they reassemble it is very easy to miss the alignment and then  get exactly the described error.

I'm having this exact problem. For a week now dryer stops and makes grinding noise. I open it up, take it apart and find nothing wrong. Did you ever find what was causing the problem? Please help. Thank you, Chip

You need to clean all the gears and make sure there is no dirt in the teeth.
You must check that the axle supports are not oval and put a small drop of engine oil (heat resistant).
check that there is no mechanical hardness.
If the problem persists, change the m770 motor and the PDB23.
