This might not be the issue but I had a similar problem when I first got the printer. Open the top-( where the ink is loaded), look at the back on the right there is a small bus cable ( flat wire usually white) make sure it is pulled in all the way into the top. Be carefull as the prongs can break. This took care of my clicking clacking when the machine came on.
Good luck
SOURCE: printer 948 false paper jam
Tonight, I fixed my neighbor's Dell 948 printer with false paper jam.
After you lift open the top, look below the shiny bar that the Print Head slides left/right on. You'll see a row of 8 tiny rollers. In between the middle two rollers (rollers #4 and #5 from the left), look for a small plastic tab sticking up between them. Touch this tab with the tip of a ball-point pen to see if it pushes down. If it does, then push the "checkmark" button on the control panel.
That's what I did to fix my neighbor's printer.
Sincerely,
John
SOURCE: Dell 948 printer- won't print in black and white
I had this problem. It's actually very easy to fix:
- Click Print -> Properties
- Go to "Advanced" tab
- "More options"
- Deselect "Use color cartridge for all black printing"
- Select "Use black cartridge to print black and white"
- Click "Ok"
You should be able to select the "Print in black and white" option now and stop all the frustration!
