Can you remove the front cover, access the rear of the button, clean, use silicon spray/ repair. Sometimes the plastic retainer/spring will break and not return the button to the out position.

Pc keeps randomly powering off & then back on. Won't stop until I unplug it.Holding down power button won't shut it off. On occasion it will stay on - is able to boot & be used normally while it...

Power supplies usually are culprits in random shut downs, but random start ups is a bit more complicated. You say that when you hold the power button, the computer won't power down. Perhaps you have a faulty switch? Make sure your PW switch cable is securely attached to the motherboard. But I'm leaning more toward a faulty switch or a short in the wires. Seems like a good place to start.

Not working

This maybe down to a faulty cartridge replace cartridges and then retry. You can try the following to obtain a test sheet.

  • Turn on printer
  • Hold power button down (While printer is on)
  • Press the paper feed button once
  • Release both buttons
This will printout a test sheet but I really do think that it is a faulty cartridge problem.

Hope I could help
Thanks J
