HP1012 Feed Issue

Aug 11, 2014 1 Replies

I have 4 old HP1012s [rarely used by wife], the manuals and several cartridges. I'd like to keep functional. If fed a single page, they print perfectly. If a small stack of paper is present they feed a second page prematurely and jam every time. Solution should be a new separator pad but no joy. I've cleaned the pickup roller. No joy. Besides feeding only one page at a time, can anyone offer a clever solution? Thanks.


The old separator pads have always been "art gum" yellow. They are just very hard and brittle now with age. This current replacement is grey. It "feels" about the same, but different color. Ebay purchase.
