Hello,
And thank you for the above instructions; I have the EXACT same problem with my Canon Pixma ip1500, which has not had much use. I did as was instructed, but the problem persists, in that the rollers roll, but only the right side feeds in and it continues until I stop it or the paper gets mangled and it stops on its own.
I (inappropriately) used a q tip instead of a lint-free cloth (learned that the rollers are strong, almost pulling the q tip apart) and spent much time cleaning the fuzz out of the roller area.
Still, feed grabs and almost mangles my paper.
Any more ideas?
Thank you for your time!
