I've done many many 4000/4050 machines for speed problems that ending up being a partial feed failure. If tray 1 feeds at an ok rate but tray 2 is way slow it's pretty much an indication of a bad feeding.

The 40 will try twice before giving a 13.1 feed error. It could be dirty or shiny enough that it's not catching it first try and is getting there on the second feed attempt.

Another thing that can cause this is a clutch (sits on the shaft in the tray next to that roller) or the paper feed assy behind tray 1 that takes it from the tray feed rollers up to the registration roller. By watching the mechanism from the back you can see if it takes more than one try to get the paper into the feed system. That could be worn or dirty picker feet (the half round shoes above tray 2) or worn feed rollers (one in the tray, one above the tray). Also watch the paper feed during a 10 or more page paper path test from tray 2 or use tray 1 temporarily - you may find that the paper is taking 2 cycles to get into the feed path causing the lag. My first thought would be to do a cold reset (after you print a configuration page for the page counts and serials) then go to service mode and replace the counts and serials and try that - it could very well be that some settings are messed up or configuration corrupted. I have 610's for $75 and 615's for $90 (plus shipping unless you're really close) but for a standalone machine I doubt you need the EIO card. Just make sure you arent getting a version mae for 10base2 (banyonet aka thinnet with coax) or token ring 16/4 (has what looks like a 9 pin female D connector, some people think it's serial).

615N's are ok if you get them after a certain serial number when production changed the ASIC chip used on them. This is where a 600N/610N/615N/620N EIO card would go.
