Roller screeching in Laserjet 2430

[arbor]

I just replaced the fuser roller and the other roller in tray 1, and when it pulls paper through, there is a loud screeching noise--definitely sounds like rubber. Any ideas how to make it stop, other than putting the old roller back in?:cool:

Change the separation pad? You may have put roller in with slot backwards. It has a thin/thick notch.

I did change all the separation pads too. When you say a roller backwards with a thick/thin notch, exactly where is that notch located? On the "stem" of the roller?

Hi there, I took the roller out and made sure it was fitted, round holes to round holes, and oval holes to oval and it's still screeching, so if you have any other ideas???
Thank you so much!

Recheck the separation pad. Make sure that it's seated correctly.
