Wanted please: help fixing a printer


mvt

Recommended Posts

Hello


I've got an Hp 4400 series multi function printer. It's a few years old now and still prints well, but has recently starting making a loud juddering noise when it starts printing.


Has anyone come across this before, or know where I can cheaply get it fixed? Seems a shame just to dispose of it as it's a nice machine.


Please PM me, thanks


Matt

It might just benefit form a clean - the rollers are probably dirty (they'll pick up ink and dust over time) and the mechanism is possibly not likely to run along it smoothly. A wipe and some WD40.


Have you googled the model number? they ususlly have a list of things to check as well as how to clean you printer and also do a reboot and clear the memory (new start, so to speak).


Taking it to a shop might just cost you the same as a new printer..... but you could try the electrical place in Herne Hill (opposite Pizza Express and the sports shop

caused by the clutch actuator being out of position

    • Hopefully their customer service has improved then, as I've had several bad experiences over the years (despite their good reputation!) including fairly recently with a fridge freezer, which after two visits in person to Oxford Street I ended up buying from AO. Their TrustPilot ratings are interesting (I just looked them up).  I know many  people tend to only post when they've received poor service, but even so .... 27% one star ratings is not good.
    • Many people have artificial trees, some people have real trees in pots which they keep from year to year, and some people don't have a tree at all, so the fact that there are fewer trees on the streets than houses doesn't necessarily mean that "the majority of people dispose of theirs responsibly"! Does the council not publicise their requirements anywhere other than on  their website? I never  have a cut tree, but if I did have, I would assume that the council collected them, particularly seeing other trees on the pavement. So I don't think it's necessarily the case that people are being selfish or unneighbourly, though as with anything, some might be. They just may not know that if they don't have a brown garden waste bin, they have to contact the council to arrange collection.
    • A sharps disposal container has been left outside  our house near goose green.   If you or a friend is missing one PM me for exact address. Presumably a contractor collects a full on and delivers replacements.  Better than a keysafe you didnt order!!
    • I would like to recommend Robert Mills, he came to sort out our central heating last week.  He is punctual, clear about what needs doing and gets on with it very efficiently.  His contact details are 07952 584171.  Thanks for giving us back a warm house Robert!
