Dell P1500 Printer
My Dell p1500 laser printer which I got as a package when I ordered a Dell computer in 2003 no longer works. When I send something to the printer all lights start blinking and nothing prints. I unhooked it and rehooked it and the computer saw it as a new device and put in the information for it and said it was ready to print. I have opened it up to make sure there are no paper jams. I pulled the ink cartridge and made sure that was clear. Is it time for a new printer? If I wanted new one to print, fax and scan what would be a good inexpensive one to get? Where is the best place to get one? Thank you in advance.
