It is convenient to have printing machines at home.But sometimes with it there are various troubles, because of which the device ceases to perform its functions. One of the most common problems is that the printer does not grab paper. What to do in this case and how to find out what the problem is without contacting the service center?
If the Epson printer does not grab the paper (equal toas well as the device of any other firm), first of all it is necessary to find out whether the rollers responsible for this action are rotating. It is possible that the problem is precisely this. For verification, it is enough to send any document to print and listen to the sounds that the device is emitting. After the clatter of the carriage moving the cartridge, the roar of the rotating axis should be heard.
You can also see that the platform begins"Submit" the sheets. If this happened - everything is fine, there was no software malfunction, the mechanical parts are intact, the contacts are working. If not, then all further actions are likely to be meaningless. Regardless of why the printer does not grab paper, Samsung, Canon and other manufacturers advise to contact the service center, because many modern models can independently only remove foreign objects.
One of the most frequent reasons for refusing work -getting into the receiving tray of various small and not very objects. This reason why the printer does not capture paper is typical for devices with vertical loading. Especially often near the rollers you can find office supplies. Not only a pen or lipstick, but even such a small object, like a clip or staple, forgotten on a sheet, can prevent the capture of paper. Therefore, you need to carefully examine the feed tray. It is likely that the cause of the malfunction is hidden there.
If a foreign body is found, it is necessarytry to extract it. There are two options for action. The first - using a long tweezers, gently picking up the edge. The second is to turn over the equipment and gently shake it. Only do this carefully and not for long, because the object may fall even further or the printer can not stand such treatment.
Office equipment is a tender thing, it is sensitive tovarious contaminants: dust, toner and ink deposits, etc. It is possible that this is why the printer does not grab paper. Xerox, HP and other manufacturers warn that in the event of self-repair, the warranty is no longer valid. If its time has passed, and the design of the printer allows you to reach the rollers, you can clean them yourself. If not - then it is better to take the device to a specialized service center.
The cleaning procedure is simple.You will need a soft cloth and cleaning fluid. The latter is sometimes replaced with gasoline for lighters. The rags are desirable to take light, so it will be easier to control the cleaning process. She should not leave a lint behind her, otherwise the whole procedure will lose its meaning. The cloth is wetted with liquid and the rollers are rubbed until the last traces of dirt, dust and color disappear. Rags can also be replaced with special napkins. They do not leave a pile and remove dirt well.
The printer does not pick up paper if the rollersnot sufficiently soft. They are made of rubber, and it's no secret that over time it becomes tough. In this case, you need to act like the previous point, only instead of the cleaning liquid you need to use the restoring. For some time this will bring the printer back to life, but sooner or later you will still have to change the videos. By the way, there are tools that combine two functions: cleaning and recovery.
Perhaps this is the most difficult case, since.here there is only one 100% effective tool - replacing old parts. If, for this reason, the printer does not grab paper, it is better to immediately turn in the equipment for repair. However, if for any reason it is not possible to take the device to a service center and wait until it is repaired, you can try to return it to the working state. There are two options:
Both of these methods are not always possible to apply.And even less often they are effective. In addition, over time, the videos will still have to be changed. The printer, maybe, will grab the paper, but once or unevenly. And after a few months will still fail. Therefore, it is better to replace worn parts immediately.
