My Epson 980 will not feed paper on the first try. Is it worth fixing ($
wise) or is it ready for the dumpster?
Thanks.

I have one of those in, supposedly, perfect working order and I feel like
throwing it in the dumpster anyway!!

Well it's not one of our front line printers but it is a good (or has
been) utility printer.

Could'nt be the rollers what got shiney and not gripping the paper by
any chance?

Try cleaning them, if they'er shiney there's a chance they will slip
on the paper. I think there was a similar post some while back on a
similar printer.
