HP IIIP Screech Question

[Guest]

Archived from groups: comp.periphs.printers (More info?)

My HP IIIP has been working faithfully for ten years. But now it screeches
as the paper feeds up through. I have not tried a new cartridge but somehow
I do not think that is the problem. Any ideas?

The paper rollers most likely need cleaning. Mine developed that a
year or so ago.

If you want to hang on to your printer, a thorough cleaning and
reconditioning is probably in order. On the other hand, you can
probably get a new laser printer, with more features, for about the
same money.
