done! fault code gone away? or has it.
In fact
the problem was only the icing on the cake.
The reason
the mirror motor had failed was due to a worn out exhaust fan. The
fuser unit rollers were due for replacement and the developer had worn
out. The true cost to fix / return the machine to good working condition
would have been close to £1000.00 over the next 6 months.
Of course
once you start the repairs you end up having all the extra jobs done
because you have just spent £400 on the initial repair.
Our
customer choose to replace the machine with a three year old
refurbished
"digital" machine capable of printing, copying and network scanning at a
cost of £1500 + vat, he then decided to take out a maintenance agreement
at 0.75p per copy, to cover all future repairs.
