Since you are presumably going to keep this printer,
once you fix it,
or
at least use it for large jobs where wasting the first few pages isn't
a
big issue, I would suggest getting another cartridge.
You will need it, eventually.
And, it provides a simple test to support or reject the in-the-crtridge
hypoothesis.
Trying another cartridge is almost always one of the first tests.
Fred,
I am considering it but as my only source for a cartridge seems to be eBay
it may not make much of a difference either way (in terms of having to wait
for it to arrive and wondering if that's any good.. :)). I am going to order
a cartridge anyhow and in the mean time I may just recap the board for good
measure. Since this is not my usual cup of tea ordering parts is a pain. I
am ordering one offs and then paying for S&H so the total cost is a pin
compared to some guys who just have supplies in bins around...
Those are sweet printers.
Yes they are. Currently all of my main printers are rescues: a Color LJ
5500HDN, LJ 2100, LS 4Si and this one which is actually going to a family
member once I can guarantee trouble free printing...
