I had this issue with an M227fdw monochrome printer. As it turns out, the gear behind the solenoid was missing teeth, and it was not a replaceable part, alas.
@@DaemanTech I wrote right in my original that the broken part could not be replaced. Please read carefully. The whole printer had to be replaced because the gear could not.
@@LydiaRau-tm5qg tbh, if that is the only issue, then look for a cheap broken printer that is the same as yours, and use the (hopefully still intact) other gear to fix your printer. probably a lot cheaper than replacing the whole printer because of one broken gear!

the solenoid sometimes gets sticky. clean it and use an insulator then fix it
@DaemanTech If the gear can't keep a steady interval due to missing teeth, nothing done to the solenoid will help with that.
@@LydiaRau-tm5qg REPLACE IT WITH NEW ONE
