Open front front panel and just check there is no "PAPER JAM". If so carefully remove all including any torn pieces.

Printer error

First confirm if the printer is recognized by your system,and check the printing history to see if there is a queue. If there is, delete them and restart your system. This time, make sure it\'s recognized, then resend your instruction to print.

Canon Imageclass D661 printer is making a squeeky noise when printing. Sounds like whatever is turning is squeaking. Any suggestions?

How old or how much use does this machine get? The older/more use it gets, the more likely it is to start making random noises and squeaks. It could be a lose belt or just need some lubrication, but it's hard telling where exactly it would need the maintenance. As long as it's printing and copying fine, I wouldn't worry too much about it since it doesn't sound detrimental.

Hope this helps!

Error code P03. It won't print, it doesn't make any noise when I turn it on, and I don't see any traces of paper.


Error code PO3 is caused by Timing Disk dirty / damaged.
Please use this methods
1. Check the timing disk sensor located to the left of the printer
2. Check and clean the board.
And start to print... thanks

When my truck gets hot it doesn't want to start. Sometimes if you wiggle the key it will start, but when it doesn't start, it makes a clicking noise.

the clicking noise is most likely coming from the solenoid on the starter motor, the solenoid is like a big switch with contacts inside of it,when you turn the key to start the engine these contacts come together to transfer the power to the starter motor,if the solenoid can't be taken apart & the contacts cleaned or replaced it will have to be replaced.......hope this helps....cheers

My loyale starts and runs ok, but makes a terrible noise, coming from the engine area. It sounds like a very loud knocking, clicking, sort of sound. It doesn't seem to affect the running of the...

hi a loud noise like the one you described can really only be a few things, either the main engine bearing is getting worn and is on its way out or you have a damaged or dirty lifter. The main difference between the two is the bearing will sound like a knock or grinding noise and the lifter will be more like a loud tick from either the left or right head on the motor you may just have to listen carefully to tell but it is possible and they will both speed up with the engine rpm. A bearing will usually cause problems running/starting/idling etc so maybe lean towards a lifter if it is damaged it will need an expensive replacement but try an oil change first as this can also free up dirt etc and solve the prob

Dryer doesn;t spin

Sounds like the belt has broken. The terrible noise was probably the belt slipping until it gained traction.
