WD-40 works the best, as most parts would not be damaged by it. Try to figure out by looking at it when it is printing what parts are rotating (this may or may not require some disassembly). If you decide to spray something that rotates (like the hubs of the little rubber wheels that move the paper), be careful to use it sparingly and don't spray it all over everything. A spray of 1/100 of a second or less will usually do the job. Good luck.

Hi,
As you mentioned that the printer makes loud grinding noise or squeaking when page comes out than i feel this is the noise coming out due to faulty fuser.
I want to be sure so please open the rear bin and try to print if still noise comes than i m sure it is fuser.
If there are smudges on the printed page or if some film coating is coming out with printed page than fuser roller are physically damage.
However in this case i assume fuser is faulty.
If there opening the rear bin noise goes off than top output rollers are faulty.

Hello there
There may still be some thing there jamming it so try this.

This may work for you, it has worked for many here I given this advice so gave it a try it could work for you.
Generally when this happens, something has fallen into the printer, or a piece of paper has been jammed in there.

First step, remove the ink cartridge, and turn the printer upside down and gently shake it, see if anything comes out.

If nothing goes, or you can't hear anything rattling around, get a piece of cardstock paper (60lb or heavier) and gently push this through the printer, to see if it will help push out what might be stuck in there.And gave the rode that the ink slides on a good clean and maybe a bit oil on cloth and wipe the rod with it.Please come back and just gave a vote, it will gave me some satisfaction to know am helping some one so I will keep on helping.

Hi,The nozzle may be blocked. So take out the colour cartridge and place its nozzle in a bit of water for about 10 mins. Bring it out and dab the nozzle with folded paper. If the tissue is blotted with the three colour it means you have unblocked the nozzle. Try now to print after returning the colour cartridge. You may need to repeat to get good results..Thank you!!

The next step it to test each sensor, both mechanically and electrically. Get really good light on the sensors, sometimes little hairs cause a false read. Verify that each sensor opens and closes electrically when actuated.

test it with 2 pages of text, one page with an "A" on it, then the 2nd page with a "B" on it. once they print out, flip them over and run them thru again to see which side of the paper is being printed on during a pass thru the printer.

Hello, Your printer makes a "grinding sound". This is usually due to two things:
1. A dirty printhead rail. It is either ink residue or dry. Try gently cleaning it with some water.
2. Paper pick up roller(s) not picking up. Clean them with a damp terry cloth towel or a multi-purpose cleaner.
