I don't have such a suspicion with my HP Colour Laserjet cp1515n, but it is good to know that it can happen. My trouble with it is that the rollers can no longer grab heavyweight paper (120 grams/square meter vs 80). I have a bottle of a product that may rejuvenate the rubber, difficult to find, but I have not applied it yet. It is old: cer@minas-tirith:~> lpstat -a cp1510n_ps accepting requests since 2015-04-01T20:17:57 CEST cp1515n_hpijs accepting requests since 2010-03-09T21:32:13 CET cp1515n_pcl3 accepting requests since 2010-03-09T21:43:17 CET Oh, I just found the invoice, October 2008. > Stayed with the Lexmark since toner cartridges for more recent > printers had tripled in price since my Lexmark was built.
