It never occurred to me to read in a separate order as originally I read as they were all published inc. novellas.

After about six rebuilds of my Laserwriter 4/600 I&#39;ve fixed both the print quality (well nearly!) and the misfeed. Apparently a common misfeed issue is two solenoids that have pads that become sticky. So cleaning these off and reassembling fixes the misfeed. But what is not that commonly known is that leaving bare metal can cause a pause in the release as the solenoid magnetises the lever. By adding some insulation tape it stops this and feeds perfectly!<br/> <img src="https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/114/111/524/940/327/209/original/a3a63759f44b04d8.jpeg"> <br/> 2025-03-05T19:41:32Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsqcksvme59q77qhpq66w8ynduc56wn3w5p5zuvwpec6n5keccwh5czyqyv46c2z6xud9z5v7zsc77h0nfc7pyuupmz9d8pvc36fgjlkh8zws0vgaa In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsz9h8n3lgj0fdlnudsu8py7c5yfezy3tzsn00s259n0f8729765agd2x6na'>nevent1q…x6na</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Any recommendations for the trace repair pen, or are they all about the same. 2025-03-02T15:17:36Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqswcfs3lt7cz7v50pzv5fwj8t5x2jfcce342pejjjhs8mtkzzlypaczyqyv46c2z6xud9z5v7zsc77h0nfc7pyuupmz9d8pvc36fgjlkh8zwhpgq2f In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsp95pssn57awg5ydzrdncxe57qzah7svdvr9f7rvg6ev4yfzw9uvgyed5qa'>nevent1q…d5qa</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Thanks for the vote of confidence!
