RE: [Digital BW] Printer Squeak...?

2002-12-21 by Roger L Sopher

I used clipper oil (for horse clippers...) and it seemed to work with my  860. A tiny drop did the trick. I'd bet any light machine oil would work.

  Subject: [Digital BW] Printer Squeak...?


  I'm making a printer work very, very hard for me right now with near 
  continuous printing couple of hours at a time.  (This is when the CIS 
  feels really good).  Have several days to go on this project and 
  would rather NOT burn out the printer in the process. 

  It's developed a 'trill' as the print head moves from right to left, 
  but not the other way.  I suspect the silver guide bar could use some 
  lube but don't know what kind?  Have some sewing machine oil that I 
  could apply minimially but hesitating for some comment here.

  Suggestions welcome & thanks in advance.
