I have checked for any paper or broken parts inside the printer and there is nothing there. I also cleaned the rollers (with alcohol) that I could reach and blew it out with compressed air. It is still squeaking. The squeak occurs after the document has been printed and available in the output bin. It appears to be something at the end of the print process, or some clean-up action. The document printed is perfect. All of the toner modules are 50% or greater as well.
