Check how many pages are on the printer; this will tell you if it’s dust or age. I’ve seen it happen in both scenarios, so the page count is the best indicator to figure it out. While it is possible to replace them, you need to be careful as it may cost more to change the rollers then it will cost to replace the entire printer. On top of this issue, the rollers are often deeply embedded into inkjet printers, making it a difficult repair.

If it’s low (1-7k), you can try both and see which works. Try cleaning it first and if that doesn’t work, check the rollers. If you see any, see if the cost of repair makes sense or if you’re better off replacing the entire printer.
For printers with a high but not excessive page count (8-10k), try cleaning first. If that doesn’t help, then it’s almost certainly premature roller wear.
If it’s high (20k or more) it’s almost certainly because of roller wear. Clean it and see, but don’t be surprised if it’s worn out. These also aren’t worth trying to fix, as there are other wear items like the waste ink pad that are almost certainly near the end of their life.

If it’s low (1-7k), you can try both and see which works. Try cleaning it first and if that doesn’t work, check the rollers for wear. If you see any, check how much they cost compared to a new printer to determine if it's worth it.

If it isn’t low but also isn’t a high page count printer (8-10k), then it’s worth trying to clean it. If it doesn’t fix it, there’s a good chance it has pickup roller has premature wear.

I would say if it’s low (8-10k), then it’s worth trying to clean it. If it doesn’t fix it, there’s a good chance it has pickup roller wear that’s premature.
