It’s a headache for every office worker – that moment you have a
critical printing job and the printer goes down. No matter how much you
plead, the machine just won’t work.
It’s no wonder, considering
the average office worker uses 10,000 pages of paper each year. That’s a
lot of printing. Plus, not maintaining your printers can be a serious
security risk. Not to worry, a printer maintenance kit is a one-stop
solution to printer problems. With a little foresight and the right kit,
you’ll be the office hero.PAPER PICKUP ROLLER KIT
We’ll
look at the kit’s contents and go over a few signs – a helpful
checklist – that it’s time to use the kit. With your printer maintenance
kit, you’ll be ready for any problem.Today, printers are high-tech
office machines filled with moving parts. Every piece needs to operate
perfectly to optimize performance. That’s where this efficient kit can
help.
A standard printer maintenance kit is a collection of
replacement parts. You need to regularly replace parts to keep the
printer working – typically after a certain number of pages have been
printed.Sometimes, you will find off-color areas of an image. You might
also see dim ghost images on the paper – places where it looks like the
same image was repeated. These are both signs of a problem with the
photosensitive drum on a laser printer. There could be excess toner on
the drum. There could also be dirt or damage to the drum. Cleaning may
correct the problem. If that doesn’t work, you may need to replace the
drum.
Streaks on the paper, like a black line across the page or
streaks of ink across the images or words, are common signs of printer
problems. This is typically dirt or damage to a roller. Your first step
should be a quick cleaning of the rollers. If you still see streaks, a
roller may be damaged and require replacement.
This is one of the
most common printer problems. There may be several possible causes and
you will need to do a little work to find the solution. The first step
is removing the paper jam. Next, check the status of the pickup roller
and separation pad. You may need to clean or replace both.
If
both are operating efficiently, you may need to look at the other
rollers in the printer. If you are still having problems, then the
problem may be caused by the transfer between rollers in the printer.
You may need to replace all the rollers to solve the problem.
