Does anyone out in netland know how to repair the power supply in a
Toshiba P321SL printer ? The power supply emits a high pitched screech
that occurs on and off. The Toshiba repair people will sell me a new
power supply for $75 which is more than I would like to pay. (note this
does not include installation)

Also, does anyone know of a way to prevent the P321SL from jamming on
tractor feed paper? I have been told by two friends of mine in the
computer consulting business (that do not know each other) who claim that
the P321SL is notorious for jamming on its paper but a > 50% loss of paper
do to jamming is getting out of hand. I have tried different brands of
paper, different tension on the paper by changing the horizontal spacing
on the tractor feed mechanisms, checking to make sure that the friction
feed is disabled and other things.

Please email me if you have any suggestions on fixing any of the above
problems. Thanks in advance
