For service technicians and advanced-level hobbyists, this book gives information on troubleshooting and repair of all types of computer printers in use - impact, ink-jet and thermal - down to mechanical, electromechanical and electronic component level. With the help of photographs and illustrations, the author discusses each component, how it works, how it interacts with other system components, and how to pinpoint and solve many of its common problems. The trouble shooting section looks at malfunctions that result from hardware and software incompatibility rather than electrical or mechanical failure. Preventive maintenance is discussed, and the book includes a chapter on printer/computer communication - another potential source of problems.
