Samsung CLX 3305W - Paper jam in tray 1

[Henk]

I have an ideal color laser printer, but I recently experienced the message "paper jam in tray 1".
* 100% sure there is no paper stuck anywhere!
Naturally, I started using Google and read that the cause often has to do with dirt/dust on the "pickup roller" with the advice to clean it. . . . so I deliberately removed the part, cleaned it, but the error message keeps repeating, pffff!
During a print job, the paper is simply no longer retracted into the printer!

Does anyone have any advice on what I could try?

Thanks for all advices . . . (none)?
In the meanrime I found out that the problem could be solved by replacing a "Main Tray Soleroid", which I bought from AliExpress yesterday.
Curious? When I have received the spare part, I will inform others my expirience.
ONLY WHEN THERE IS A REACTION AND SOMEONE IS INTERESTED.

Did you blast compressed air inside the paper tray area after you removed the tray? Sounds like debris is on a sensor somewhere. Or there's an actual paper jam deeper than where you're looking. We've seen everything from paper clips to wooden dowels get stuck in printers at times. I would look a lot closer and also blast air throughout the printer and try again. If it still shows up, factory reset it and/or upgrade firmware.

Thanks, I have tried already everything you advised and all without result.
The only (and last) thing I will try is what I saw on youtube:

For those who are interested in the "paper pick-up replacement instruction":

Disassembled the printer after watching the YouTube instructional video several times. Followed carefully, replaced the main tray soleroid (bought from AliExpress €3.39) and reinstalled the printer. Turned on the printer and . . . . pfff: Everything worked as usual again!
