Would anyone have an idea? Do you think we can get spare parts? I may try to glue the gear on the axis, but my experience with this is not very good as the rotation is 'brutal': it starts and stops violently, so the glue can only last a short time. The axis turns fine, but it does not get the gear to rotate as soon as there is a slight resistance (which is the case when it has to push paper). If I put my hand under the feeder to stop it from going down and then push the paper manually, the second set of gears catches the sheet and the printer works fine.ДЄfter inspection, I found out the culprit: all the gears within the feeder are working fine, but the first one, attached to the rotating axis, must be to old and it is not stuck onto the axis anymore. It makes some noise, but the wheels barely rotate and do not push paper through to the second set of wheels. Hello, I have the same problem with mine (HP 7510). I was able to salvage some internals for future project use at least (the WiFi module and card reader) to prevent a bit of e-waste but the majority is plastic crap not worth saving. Printer manufacturers can build these printers at a loss with the cheapest components possible and make all their money back by selling ink at hugely inflated prices. As someone mentioned in another fork it's the Gillette model. It's so wasteful to have to throw away printers that can't seem to last beyond a few years without something breaking due to their extremely cheap plastic internals. I absolutely hate how disposable these inkjet printers are. My last HP laser was basically indestructible and I'm hoping that this one will be more durable in the long run as laser printers are more 'professional'. As I needed a working printer I just decided to purchase an HP AIO laser printer as a replacement. Unfortunately I got very sick and was unable to spend any time to investigate this further. Long term, HP is not the tech firm it used to be and buyers need to move on. I am pledged that next time - too soon, I am sure - I'll will not buy HP and I will buy printer with parts designed to last and made available for vendor or at home repair. Can we shame them into growing up and making sense? I doubt it. It's deliberate and the choice is for the consumer. The proliferation of models by HP which basically are unchanged in function is part of that marketing plan. There does not seem to be consumer panels/survey on longevity but there certainly is evidence that low-price ink jet printers (or lasers) are 'given' away (low/no gross margin) to drive ink sales. The issue become one of total cost per printed impression over 'life time' of machine, not user. They agreed and hence the deal on a new generation machine which will likely have similar problems soon enough. Even worse, inventory of ink I just bought was now useless. Furthermore, I would have to buy new machine. I complained that a $150-200 purchase was negated by poor quality plastic roller the size of a grape. I spoke with senior tech people at HP and they confirm this printer - and many others - are disposable.
