HP Printer

[Dick]

does anyone know what part I need to replace to make this printer work ?
The Make: HP
The Model PSC 1610
Age : About two years

The Problem: Keeps taking paper in ,it goes in to far and reports a paper
jam.
If you push the OK button,it spits the paper out and takes in a new sheet of
paper.
It does this without being hooked up to the computer.

Thanks,
Dick

Look up the model number on the back and buy one of those. Unplug
all the cables and throw out the big box in the middle. Replace it with
the part you just purchased.

There is a rubber tire reconditioner used for record players (the cheap kind
with a rubber tire). Don't know what's in it though.

The stuff I`ve had for donkey's years contains xylene - very nasty
stuff - works a treat tho.
