Check and replace the moving belt on carret

ok first try restarting your printer, then try uninstalling the driver for your printer off your computer, restart your computer and printer and then reinstall your drive for the printer, see if you get a replacement for your printer or a refund

Hi Harden,
Thats an issue with the fuser assembly,try to check the teflon condition/ teeth gear might have worn out.

The Grinding Noise has something to do with the scanner not the Printing Part, I think the scanner could have something stuck on the moving tray....!!!!!!

sounds like the rubber band in side the printer has jumped a tooth which is why it is grinding bud have it repaired or get another

Hi There,
It's quite possible that you both are experiencing the same or similarly related problem for which I just posted some advice. Please take a look at the entry linked below and see if this won't be of help to you. You're also welcome to email me for further outline or assistance in resolving your issue; I have 6 of these machines and do a lot of work helping others with them. Here's the post:

Mine makes a grinding noise when scanning or making copies. As long as everything is working, I just tolerate the noise in which the rest of the staff find amusing at first and then ignore it as I do.

One of the drum cartridges is stuck. Test by removing them one at a time with the printer off, then turning on.

Grinding noise is most likely caused by the carriage lock getting stuck and holding the print head at the home position. The noise is caused by the toothed belt that pulls the head back and forth, skipping over the splines on the motor drive wheel. If you have been able to print since the problem occurred, chances are that it has freed itself up and will be fine. Regarding the loss of cyan & magenta output, follow the solution given in my previous posts to complete a manual under-head cleaning cycle. This should get you going.
