[olug] HP laserjet 2100 printer repair

[Eric Lusk]

You'll have to check and see who carries a maintenance kit, if you don't mind doing it yourself.  I'm not even sure what those cost anymore.
Really, you've got to factor in the age of the printer, cost of the maintenance kit/toner, and compare those to the cost of a new, comparable printer.  A good laser printer isn't cheap, but they normally last quite a while.  I'd burn through lots of ink if I tried using an inkjet for most of my printing, but I still keep a photo-qualilty inkjet around for when I want to print out pics.

What would cost to fix that Laser Jet 2100 because you can get a new printer
from staples probably cheaper that is would cost to fix it. I bought a
laserJet 1020 for 170.00 it does about 3000 pages per toner.

I got my HP LJ4000 because a client didn't want to pay to have it maintained
again by their usual company.  They were going to throw it out, so I took it
home and dusted off the sensors.  10,000 pages since and it works like a
charm!

Agreed - some Googling will bring you to a self help printer repair site
that will talk you through how to diag & repair your laserjet.


If all else fails, nebraska business machines (IIRC) near 84th & L was
able to help me a while back.
