Recently donated our "good Brother" - it lasted 5 years !
We had same feeder problems, especially with cheap shiny paper.
Premium paper had no problems, but it would mis-feed if the bin was completely full.
Service tech suggested to replace the feed rollers that wear out.
We didn't have a back-up printer, so we continued to use good paper, for another 2 years !
Hope these new printer$ last that that long.
