The ADF feed rollers are soft rubber and the grip surfaces wear smooth after a while and need replacing. One idea is to use some isopropyl alcohol and a clean cloth to clean the dirt and toner from the feed rollers to get you by. That often will clear up minor feeding issues. Call your service provider or look online for the costs for those roller parts.
Ensure that the proper paper size is being used in the ADF.
Are the paper guides on the ADF tray properly adjusted?
Inspect the ADF separator roll and ADF separator pad for wear. If they are worn,
replace them. If they are dirty or have a buildup on them, clean them with a damp
cloth.
If the ADF fails to pick check to make sure that the paper height in the ADF input
tray is beneath the height marker on the ADF paper guides.
Inspect the paper present sensor on the ADF.
• Check the flags on the sensor. Are they able to move freely? If the sensor
flags are damaged, replace the ADF assembly.
Make sure the ADF cable is securely connected to the ADF and the controller
card.
If the cable is properly connected, perform the following checks:
• Check the ADF cable for continuity.
• Check pin 1 on controller card connector J2 for +5V.
• Pin 3 should be ground.
If voltages are present, replace the ADF.
If replacing the ADF does not fix the problem, replace the controller card.
If the ADF is multi feeding, check the ADF pick roller and pad for dirt. Remove
them from the MFP, and clean them with a lint free cloth and isopropyl alcohol.
If the leading edge of the paper is damaged, instruct the user to lessen the
number of documents being copied from the ADF at one time.
If there are excessive misfeeds from the ADF, verify that the ADF paper tray and
extender are properly installed.
Skews and jams at the ADF paper present sensor might be caused by an
improperly closed ADF cover. Ensure the ADF cover is closed properly.

E8 is a Paper Jam error that could be caused by:
- paper crumpling during scan.
- paper is multi-feeding all at once instead of feeding separate.
- scanner continuously tries to feed after paper has fed through.
if the paper is crumpling during the scan, make sure the inside of the scanner is clear of any obstructions. use the paper guides in the ADF tray to keep the paper straight when feeding in.
if the paper is multifeeding while scanning, fan out the pages before inserting them into the scanner. if problem persists, try cleaning the rollers with rubbing alcohol and a lint free cloth.
if scanner tries to continually feed after the paper feeds through, the ADF tray will need to be reseated. open the scanner and remove the ADF tray at the top. line up the 4 keys at the bottom of the tray with the 4 corresponding key slots inside the scanner. push the tray back until it clicks into place.
