I have a lw select 300 that is having problems feeding paper.  It fails with a paper jam but the paper is just started into the secon set of feed rollers. these are the ones just before the toner assy
I think the roller are old and not griping the paper and pushing it into the second feed rollers.  I have searched for rollers without success.  what can I do to revive the rubber rollers??

Rubber rollers with heat and age tend to become hard and smooth on their surface. A temporary fix it to take them out and very lightly sand them with fine sand paper. The objective is to remove the hardened outer most surface and expose some of the softer rubber beneath.

I had started the sanding procedure But not enough of the old stuff was removed.  I could try to turn some new ones out of a bar stock, maybe?
