Personal LaserWriter NT Printer

  #1  
Oct 13th, 2006
Hello,

I have a lightly used Personal LaserWriter NT Laser Printer that has been incredibly trouble free and reliable for many years.

It recently produced a "Printer Needs Service" message.

Is it possible to still obtain service and/or parts for this model?

Is there anything I could possibly do myself to try to fix, i.e. swap out the drum or something?

Thanks much for any input.

Amy M.

I'm afraid I don't have any idea what is wrong. For a short time previously, it had been printing sometimes, then not printing. After 2 or 3 times, it prompted with the message.

Thanks.

Amy

Thanks anyway. There is an Apple store not too far from me. I may take it in there and see what they have to say.

Have a great weekend.
