I got this Lexmark E232 laser printer (also sold as a Dell) for free because it wasn't pulling paper from the tray anymore. The problem was worn out feed rollers, and replacing them was cheap and easy.

  • under what model does Dell sell this?

  • @Dell0304 I'm sure Google could find the answer. ;-)

  • Nice job. Even though it's very cheap and easy to fix, most people would just buy a new printer. What a waste of money and a printer.

    Also, is it true that if a printer isn't used for more than a few weeks, the ink jet things clog up and it can't be repaired? A guy at the computer store told my mom that.

    Haha that's a cool outtro too. The exploding pizza!

  • @wilkes85 I have an HP color inkjet printer, but I don't use it anymore because of that ink clogging problem. But thankfully laser printers don't have that problem. You can let them sit for months or even years and they'll still print perfectly.

  • I found with these printers you can get a short amount of extra life out of the old tires by turning them inside out. Should last long enough to order new ones.

  • @toyota1992h No.

  • @Dell0304 Dell 1710/1710n

  • You can rebuild the drum

    Just need to empty the waste toner in the back and clean the parts

  • I have the DELL variant

    They used the E240/E240n

  • @Dell0304 E240n

  • It is easier to just remove the tires off the new hubs and place them on the old hubs

  • it is a Dell 1700/1710
