HP1012 Feed Issue

[John Keiser]

I have 4 old HP1012s [rarely used by wife], the manuals and several
cartridges. I'd like to keep functional. If fed a single page, they print
perfectly. If a small stack of paper is present they feed a second page
prematurely and jam every time. Solution should be a new separator pad but
no joy.
I've cleaned the pickup roller. No joy. Besides feeding only one page at a
time, can anyone offer a clever solution?
Thanks.

The old separator pads have always been "art gum" yellow. They are just
very hard and brittle now with age. This current replacement is grey. It
"feels" about the same, but different color.
Ebay purchase.
