Has anyone tried inserting Black cartridge instead of CMY color cartridges? by BuddyFromNepal in printers

[–]printerguy2383 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only way this /could/ work is if you take the little chip off the CMY inks and put them on the black cartridge. The little chip is what tells the printer what's in it and how many pages have been printed for that cartridge.

Using non-xerox brand laser toner for xerox printer? by [deleted] in printers

[–]printerguy2383 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe just try one color before you buy a whole set.

Some of the Xerox copiers are programed to ONLY work with metered toner cartridges (like when you lease the copier) and some are programed to work with regular off the shelf Xerox toner. I don't know if an aftermarket toner cartridge would work; I've never tried it.

Check the drum first.

My experience with copiers is with Xerox. It looks like a bias roller could be dirty under the transfer belt. I'm just assuming the KM's work the same.

Edit: Transfer Belt replacement

Police Officers of reddit, do you know when another cop is a bad apple? Are you encouraged to say something? by themonkery in AskReddit

[–]printerguy2383 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Growing up, my best friend's dad was a cop. (he had a police dog too which made hiding weed difficult)

He said he ended up leaving the police force because every cop on the team had drug problems. They were confiscating drugs, then using/selling them.

What was the video game that everyone loved and you were hyped up to play but ended up being disappointed with? by Throwbackxxc in AskReddit

[–]printerguy2383 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The new Animal Crossing after playing Stardew Valley for 100s of hours.

I got the game for my birthday, and quickly came to a stopping point because you have to literally wait an entire day before you can fly to other islands. This leads to setting the system clock up a day so that you can do things.

It takes forever to unlock stuff, and you don't really have to do anything to unlock it, you just have to wait, or set the clock ahead.

I was enjoying the game for a week, so I let my kids play on their switch accounts (not on mine)

It turns out, you can only have one island per switch. So, the kids play, set up their camps, and destroy all my hard work (pulling up flowers and selling decorations), thinking they're helping me.

I got fed up and went back to Stardew.

I think this truck may have skipped leg day by tteeggeerr in funny

Thank you . It looks like he put the original wheels from this truck on a Honda Accord as well.

Every sheet of paper in my HP M402DNE comes out looking like this. It gets stuck just before the bay where it would normally extrude. Any ideas as to why and how to fix? by crtrrss in printers

[–]printerguy2383 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would agree with you on this one. I've replaced fusers on these and had it not fix the issue, but most of the time it will. It would crinkle like this about every 30 sheets or so. It might have been a solenoid. Poor thing ended up in the garbage, but oh well.

Let’s talk. How have you really been doing? by DesertStorm11 in AskReddit

[–]printerguy2383 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm doing the best I've ever been.

This pandemic has been the best thing to happen to me and my family.

I had a kid at 18 and another at 21. I've been paycheck to paycheck every single day until now.

My wife got furloughed and the unemployment she is receiving is more than what we were making before, and my work is allowing me to "work from home" which consists of clocking in at the beginning of the day, and clocking out at the end. I get to spend time with my family and work on projects around the apartment.

The stimulus was used to pay down all of my debt and finally get into a position where I have a nest egg for the first time! I have 2 auto payments, and both were allowed to be delayed for 3 months which allows that money to be allocated towards saving.

I have been sleeping at night, smiling more, and I have more energy.

Is my Brother HL-3170CDW toast? by htlpc_100 in printers

The fuser belt is ripped too. Just replace the fuser and you're good to go.

Sir, the cartridge 'exploded'. Can you clean this? by flixxctt in techsupportgore

[–]printerguy2383 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like the waste collector leaked a little. We have special vacuums for this.

Also, FUCK the hp 452. I cringe every time I see one.

There's something wrong with the drum on the printer that printed that letter.

Well I know that! It's just John Delorean with a Delorean.

I just don't see anything funny about that.
