My printer is about 7 -10 yrs old, but is still printing fine. I run a small construction business, so the printer is not a high use printer, probably only 25-50 pages a week. However, it is starting to squeak when it is printing like some roller needs lubricating. i dont see any like that recommended in the manual. does anyone know of any parts that need to be lubricated?
Before digging too deep, try removing the toner cartridge and powering on. The printer will make a short run cycle and you can listen for the squeak. Many times it's just the toner or drum and you don't need expensive repairs, just a cartridge.

Thanks, The short run cycle is pretty short and i only get a slight squeak at the end of the cycle with the toner cartrige in, but it does seem to go away completely with the cartrige out. i will try replacing the cartridge. Thanks, again.
Thanks for your help! The short run cycle is pretty short, but i think I do hear a slight squeak at the end of the cycle when the cartridge is in the printer, and it seems to go away when i take the cartridge out. I'll try replacing the cartridge! Thanks again.
