Cleaning rollers, servicing an HP Deskjet 952c

[Ron Marraccini]

Folks,

Where would I get information on cleaning the rollers, ink depository,
and general servicing for an HP Deskjet 952c?

It's been a great printer and I would like to get some more miles out of it.

Thank you.

Does anyone have a good answser for Ron?
I'd like the same information about my HP 940c.

I'm clear about how to clean my rollers. What I don't know is:
- How to get at the rollers.
- What commands to issue and how in order to get those rollers turning
safely so I can clean them.

Anyone?

Richard

I do not believe there are service manuals available for the 900 series
Deskjets. They are not too hard to dismantle however, usually two screws under
the top cover and two clips that you release with your fingers inside the rear
turnaround station (remove the turnaround cover or duplexer to see them at
either side) then using a screwdriver release two plastic spring clips inside
the front at either side (best to have the carriage in the middle to do this).
Lift the cover and carefully unplug the control panel cable.
Once the top cover is off you can clean the rollers at the front by turning
them using the gear at the left and the rollers at the back by turing the
rollers by hand.
While you have the covers off, clean out the service station if there is a
column of ink in it (right centre).
