Lubricating HP Deskjet Guide Rail
I've got 3 different deskjets which were all prelubricated with some white
stuff on the printcartridge track. On the cheapest machine the lubrication is no longer evident and the printer although working, now squeaks. Is the white stuff that HP uses for lubrication available to the general public at low cost ,or could I try a drop of light machine oil on the track ? Thanks. Martin |

It miht be an emulsion... not sre. But any oil is better thn nothing. On the cheapest machine the lubrication is no longer evident and the printer although working, now squeaks. A drop of lightweight oil should do.

I have seen it in many electromechanical mechanisms over the years. It's prettier, I think. Angelo Campanella |
