Check the pickup rollers for excessive wear, cracks or dust. You have to remember these printers are several years old which means problems like this are becoming more common. Check for dust and see if that's the issue before assuming the rollers are worn out.

Now if you find that the rollers are worn, there isn't much you can do outside of upcycle it as a scanner or replace the whole printer. The design of the print mech makes repair of this problem impractical. On these printers, you need to change the print mech as a single unit.

While there are no guides on the site to remove the jam door, it's not hard to do. Find the end with the tab that can fit a finger and pull in to remove the door.

Check the pickup rollers for excessive wear, cracks or dust. A lot of these printers are starting to wear out due to high page counts. If you find it isn't dust and it's a wear problem use the printer as a scanner or recycle it. When it comes to Inkjet printers, there is no practical way to replace worn rollers due to the low cost of a replacement printer and the design of the rollers. You have to replace the print mechanism on Inkjets since you probably won't find the roller on it's own.

There are no guides on the site on how to access the jam door and inspect the pickup rollers, but it isn't hard to access and quickly check the rollers. You just need to remove the jam clear door to do it. If the rollers look fine what I have done on my dad's 17k B210a is bent the frame where the jam door goes on both sides to improve the grip and delay replacement. 17k+ is high enough it's probably time for a new printer but he still wants to run it so I'd rather make it bearable until it gets to the point it's beyond repair.
