No it was the main paper transport roller.
But the loose shaft would not have been such a problem in itself, the gear  
assembly on the end serves also as a clutch to the paper feed mechanism,  
activated by the head carriage. because the mount was loose this clutch  
would not engage, and the lack of movement in the paper feeder was what  
upset the printer.
I see that becoming a problem for the PCB printing, the main paper  
transport shaft is turning backwards and forwards at all sorts of time,  
which will surely be a problem if i want to attach a flat table to it. But  
that's a problem to be solved another day.

I have refilled the black with mispro yellow, using the dry sponge  
technique from inksupply.com . currently i don't get all nozzles, but the  
instructions said that is likely and i should wait overnight. The best  
nozzle pattern i got was only missing one or two, so i expect it will  
clear up eventually.
