I've got someone here who mends our broken kit - we get most of our parts from Express Terminals, but I beleive they do servicing as well. With the possible exception of feeder rollers (and even then they're only worth replacing a couple of times) they are not really worth repairing... LJII's are very solid but painfully slow, LJ4's and the small desktop LJ5's and 6's will be broken again in no time. The larger LJ5s are resonably good, but try to replace rather than mend dodgy cassette mechanisms. Keep an eye on your TCO - with our print volumes we saved a fortune by cutting back on repairing individual HP desktop printers and replaced them with network/workgroup Kyocera's. Even if you can't claim depreciation there's a cost saving if its practical, and everybody loved the improvement in speed.
