officejet 6110 repair

Archived from groups: comp.sys.hp.hardware (More info?)

Hi,
Sorry I couldn't find a manual for you. I had an OfficeJet Pro 1150C with
the same problem. The scanner head (the part that moves) was sticking on the
stainless steel shaft, causing the belt to slip. I took the top cover off
(4 or 6 screws I believe - 2 were hidden under little plastic covers) and I
put some "3-in-1" oil on the shaft. It worked fine.
Sheldon.
