Fixing printers can be tricky, and even experienced technicians fall into common traps. This video from TTOParts breaks down two of the most frequent mistakes we see—ones that lead to frustrating errors and unnecessary headaches.
The Two Biggest Mistakes in Printer Repair
In this video, we dive into two easy-to-make errors that can derail a printer repair job:
Missing Platen Pad/Roller: Ever get a mysterious "printhead carriage position error?" It's often caused by testing the printer without the platen pad or roller installed. We'll show you why this simple part is so crucial for proper functionality and how to avoid this common oversight.
Testing the Screen Alone: Trying to power up a screen without plugging it into the printer? It won't work! The printer's power supply is essential for the screen to turn on. We'll explain why and show you the proper way to test your screen components without wasting time.
