I have a HP PCS 750 printer that has done a very good job over the years and now since I had to get a new computer this printer no longer works with Windows 7.So now I am looking for a new HP Printer that has ALL in ONE future on it.

What is a very good HP Printer that can print on both sides.

Actually this printer like many other vintage HP printers works with Windows 7. Installation is very easy: Just connect the printer to the computer and turn the printer on. Windows update then finds the driver on the web and installs it. I think HP supplied many drivers to Microsoft.

Also see this: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsuppor...skId=135&prodSeriesId=295845&prodTypeId=18972 .

So if you like this solid old workhorse and it is still going strong, there is no reason to replace it yet.

I am very please that someone realizes that this printer is not done working yet.

I would like to know if I can find parts for this HP PCS 750. I have an arm which I call it and may not be the right name. Brock so when printing multi pages I have to be right there to take each page out as soon as it is printed.

Does any one know where to get parts for this printer?

The printengine in the HP PSC 750 is from a HP Deskjet of the 900 series. You find service manuals for the HP DJ 900 series printers here: http://www.eserviceinfo.com/downloadsm/24508/hp_Deskjet 9xx.html . It is one zip-archive with four files after unpacking.

I think the arm is named paper pusher, see page 10 in the 9xx_disassembly.pdf file.

As this printer is 10-20 years old, I think your best chance for finding a replacement part is to find an old and maybe defunct printer of the DJ 900 series.

A common cause of breaking the thin plastic fingers on the paper pusher is removing a jammed piece of paper backwards. A jammed piece of paper should be removed in the normal (forward) direction of paper movement.

Good luck with finding a donor printer and repairing the PSC 750.
Peter.
