Early Signs That You Need to Call for Printer Repair Services

The sooner you notice that you have a problem with your office printer, the faster you can get it fixed so you can get back to work. Catching problems early also often means they are quicker and less expensive to fix. Here’s a look at some early warning signs that you have a problem with your office printer and need printer repair services. 

Blurry Lines or Blots of Ink

If your printer is printing blurry, interrupted, or wavy lines, there’s a problem! Your printer should always print clear text and images. Blots of ink are also a warning sign that there’s a problem with your printheads, roller, thermal ribbons, or elsewhere. 

Strange Noises From the Printer

You probably know the normal sounds that your printer makes pretty well, but if you start to hear strange new noises, it is probably a sign of a problem. If your printer is rattling, grumbling, groaning, thumping, or shaking, it’s time to call a printer repair service. 

Frequent Paper Jams

Paper jams are not only annoying, but they might also indicate a bigger problem with your printer. If a part of the printer’s inner mechanism is broken, it could be catching on the paper and causing an issue. If you keep clearing paper jams and they keep recurring over and over, you should schedule printer repair services. 

Error Codes

Error codes on your printer’s screen, or on your computer when you try to print, indicate a printer issue. Try turning the printer off and on again. If that doesn’t work and the error keeps showing up, call your printer repair company.
