    Is my printer throw out the window material?

    There is no point buying one for parts. The printer I currently have was made in 2005 and buying it used, which I refuse to do with a printer, cost more than a brand new printer with all the modern day bells and whistles. I bought a new printer at Costco but it's so bulky, I won't even...

    Is my printer throw out the window material?

    I can try again. I have cleaned the heck outta that clear strip (I had to look up timing strip) and now the strip doesn't look too good as it did when I first cleaned it about a month ago. I cleaned it several times over three days. It was clear before, now it looks like it has spots on it...

    Is my printer throw out the window material?

    I actually have those syringes for refilling cartridges myself and previously have gone through three remedies to fix ink not being released, which helped at the time but then I did the WD40 and messed it all up. I tried doing the cartridge over boiling water, just in case, but that didn't...

    Made the mistake of using WD 40

    I wasn't able to scan a page on the printer since HP Support Assistant no longer works. But I was able to clean the printer and everything is back to normal. Thank you so much for your help. You saved me hundred's of dollars to buy a new one and making the mistake of throwing this one away.

    Made the mistake of using WD 40

    Hello there. I made a huge mistake and sprayed inside my printer with WD 40. It makes this strange noise when it pulls up the paper so I thought, why not just oil it up a little. The sound continued. I thought, maybe it needs more so I added more. Then I tried to print. Oil everywhere. I...
