How do I get tissue paper out of the fuser of my 1600w printer? I guess that's where it's stuck _can't find it anywhere else.

It's a printer, not a toilet; why put tissue paper in it? Well, I think the paper will be flushed out eventually.

I had one very serious jam and I made sure that the shredder was turned off and unplugged from the surge protector and then used several pliers in different lengths and pulled the paper from it. After I cleared the jam I put some performance oil on a single sheet of paper and ran it through and it worked okay.

Sorry, I have not had an issue changing toner cartridges, so I'm not sure how to fix it. Did you pull all of the protective plastic tabs off of the cartridges? Try tipping the cartridge back and forth a few times to loosen the toner. One time my printer kept saying the paper was out when it wasn't. I turned off both the printer and the computer and rebooted them. That seemed to fix my problem. Sorry I can't be of more help.

If you contact Brother, they can help. Their CSR Rep was able to help me Purge the print head and now I'm back in business. I got a back-up printer just in case.

No I have not found a way to do that. I just had the same problem and luckily had a new cartridge handy. I get the best service and prices from inkjetsuperstore.com. Also fast delivery. I always order 2 of what I need. So when I put in the second one, I order more so I won't be in a bind. Older printers would let you take out the cartridge and shake it and put it back in but not this one. This printer is not the easiest to operate. It has a mind of its own.

Not much help for your particular problem but seriously consider dumping the printer. I had one and found endless problems with it. It is undoubtedly the worst printer I have ever purchased. Eventually I replaced it. Sorry about your problem but I can only advise based on my experience.

I wish I could help you. It is not a good printer, I have other problems. I wish I had returned it.

Hi, Marie. I believe I have seen confirmation pages out of this printer, but I'm not sure exactly how to get them. Good luck getting this information more concretely! At this point, I'm curious about what the manual says!

I had the same problem. It just wouldn't feed. I inpected the paper and found that the top corner was slightly curled. I replaced it with brand new paper from a ream, still it wouldn't feed. I tried it over and over. I used a flashlight to see if there is any paper left inside the printer. I found none. So frustrated after wrestling with this problem for an hour, I shut off the printer and turn it back on. The problem went away. Who knows what really went wrong and what fixed it.

I too thought it would be as simple as plugging it in. After trying on my own without success, I called a neighbor who was able to get the new printer working in no time. He said to click on the computer control panel and where it says devices or printers right click on printer change to "default printer." I hope this works for you. Good Luck.

Do you have an online manual? All the answers can be found in it. I believe you can press and hold the STOP button to clear it. Check your paper and ink, too.

I don't understand. Anyway, we replaced the fuser and only got a few more months of use on the printer. If you have the funds, replace the machine --the newer features make it worth it.

The fuser is the part of the printer that heats your plastic powder to make the imprint. This is an integral part failure and you should return the printer.

For labels, set the paper type to Heavy Paper in the print driver properties settings. This will make the printer heat the fuser longer and the toner will not flake of as easy.

Sounds like you have a bad fuser unit. The maint. kit may fix this, however the one I ordered lasted less than a year. I just tossed out our old 8150N and replaced it with an HP M603. We love the new printer! I wish we did this sooner.

Not certain what is missing but I would recommend contacting Lexmark directly - if it is the power cord part it might be brand specific - if it is the computer cable to printer cord you might find one that is a generic that would work on amazon but, I would first go to the Lexmark customer service site and check there. My personal suggestion based on my experience with this printer would be to check out other printers - had mine about 4 months it is was such a pain that I replaced it with a cannon. Of course, it could just be that mine was a lemon.

reboot your printer then it should release and re adjust itself. same for paper jam open back and remove paper incase.
