3. Another duplexer for
Radio Shack makes a simple cleaning fluid that works pretty well. It
is work a try.

You need to order a maintenance kit. For the larger printers, such as
the 5Si, you need to periodically replace some of the key components

Thanks, Jonathan. My jams are exactly those you described. Actually, there is no real paper jam: the paper just doesn't get fed into the mechanism and folds up accordion-wise. What kind of "alcohol based cleaner" do you use? I'm also going to try heavier paper than the 80g. OT: Where are you

I just got one of these printers from a used printer warehouse in Indianapolis.
I've gotten it to work flawlessly with Finale in terms of two-sided printing
and booklet printing, but I do have a few questions. Since I note that several
of you use this printer, I thought I'd ask
