M601: Manufacturing of Laserjet M601 clicking noise when printing

I have a laserjet M601, which has just started to make a rattling noise when it prints.  Looks like it is close to the top right corner before somewhere under the screen.  It snaps when a page is caught to start printing.  I hear a 3-5 clicks when the paper is caught, then it stops for the rest of the page.  If multiple pages print, click before the beginning of each page to be printed.  All other prints are normal.  The print job ends very well and all is well.  I only hear it clicking now and it seems to be deteriorating.  Thoughts?  Thank you.

Hello

I have some further thoughts on this. Are you sure that the manual tray loading produces noise? They use different pickup assemblies. If we have confirmed both tray 2 and Tray 1 (manual feed tray) produce the same noise that we have to look at what they have in common. Toner, transfer roller, editing of the main landing gear, & fuser.

What type of toner cartridge do you use? If possible can you exchange with others and print a test page? If the problem persists, what is the number of pages on the printer? Have you recently replaced a maintanece kit?

  • Alienware M17 making clicking noises when the Windows 8.1

    Morning

    Recently I install my Windows 7 Alienware to Windows 8.1 Professional with a clean upgrade, then driver download directly from the Support page for the Dell driver using my Service tag code.

    But something weird happening began to point 8.1 of Windows, random fan on hand left tackle beginning to click at random intervals. I ran all the possible diagnoses that nothing is picking up errors. I checked with another friend who also has 8.1 Windows Pro and it has the same problem. After doing a little research there have been others complain about this clicking noise but I can't seem to find a solution to this.

    This could cause clicking sounds and why didn't do on Windows 7?

    Thank you

    I think that the noise could come from the HARD drive or optical drive.

    Try to disable the optical drive from Device Manager and check if the problem persists. Go to make readers of CD-ROM/DVD-ROM, right click on the disk drive and select disable.

  • How can I remove annoying clicking noise when opening new tab?

    I have goggled it and it says something of non-script (I'm not running) and nothing else that sounded remotely close to my problem. Basically, every time I open a new tab (which I do tons of) I hear the most odious type click hard and he's pushing me to the top of the walls. I simply cut the whole browser then many media players and the game as the audio directly instead of adobe flash or other browser. I just learned that he also plays more noise in the world when I use the spell check feature...

    Any help on deleting this file its terrible of Firefox would be greatly appreciated... I'd hate to start using chrome comes out of this sound.

    Only the Add-ons I use are Adblock Plus 2.6.3 Advanced SystemCare surf Protection 1.0 (I guess it installed itself with the CSA program) and Leechblock 0.6.6.

    All my plugins are disabled by default, unless I manually turn their add-on Manager window when I start firefox and the front sound pieces I never turn them on.

    Hmm...

    What exactly is the sound? To see if it is a built-in Windows sound, could you review the sounds assigned to different actions in the control panel and see if the noise you hear is one of these:

    Start menu > Control Panel > hardware and sound category > change system sounds > (in the dialog box) sounds tab

    Also, use the parameter which indicates each tab as his own overview in the Windows task bar? If so, could test showing you the real only windows on the bar?

    "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > tabs

    clear the check box "Show glimpses of tab in the Windows task bar.

  • Loud noise clicking noise when you try to play a DVD

    HP Pavilion d4995t desktop PC with High Definition Realteck Audio Ultimate.  Vista Premium o/s.  I play my sound through my HDMI cable to the speakers in my monitor. When I try to play a DVD in the DVD player, I get a loud clicking with no sound from the DVD.   This only happens to the DVD.  CDs play sounds without problem.  If I copy the same files to DVD on the hard drive, I can play from the hard drive and the sound works.  If I connect speakers to the audio output and disable the HDMI output, I can play the DVD in the DVD player and games sound through the speakers without noise.  I ran his tool from Microsoft without success.  Updated all the audio drivers.  I reloaded Vista, which corrected the problem.  But as time passed the problem comes back.  I suspect that the problem was caused by a Microsoft Update. Someone at - it suggestions?

    Yes, sometimes after installing the Service Pack for Vista through Windows Update.

  • Super screen sensitive like I can't turn off the laptop and hear a clicking noise when the lid is closed

    I am running Windows 7 on a computer Tablet laptop of Dell Latitude (it has a touch screen that is not removable, but it turns). My problem is that I can not shut down this computer and carry it from one place to the other without losing all my battery power: you can hear 'ping' when the lid is lowered. If I have to carry that I have to turn off completely, otherwise it will just keep producing this ping and use my battery. Everyone knows this?

    This ping me makes me believe that a key is pressed, perhaps due to a letter from the keyboard that is stuck or is bad, or possibly a defect of the product.

  • Tecra M10 - 12M - clicking noise and slight stutter

    I have a problem of sound strange but serious with my Tecra M10 - 12 M in December 2008.
    It started to happen a month or two ago and behaves like this:

    After the reboot of Vista business, the sound is perfect.
    I use my computer throughout the day, then put it in mode "sleep" during the night. The problem begins with the sounds of rattling occasional and slight stutter, then gradually worsens. After 3 to 4 days, the PC becomes impossible to listen to or to use with Skype.

    I am a competent computer scientist and have tried to close systematically of all the applications, services, and processes to see if I could find an offender who caused the problem. I did not and I also checked that I have the latest drivers for the Realtek High Definition Audio (with EC). I also tried to disable all the improvements in the sound properties.

    The only thing that helps is restarted. The sound is so perfect even once immediately and for several days.

    A good example of this phenomenon can be found at http://www.netwv.net/Sound.mp3. Although the example originates from Skype, note that is not a problem associated Skype. But Skype is an important tool for me and this problem really completely disables my PC when it comes to use Skype and listen to the sounds.

    Any suggestions to solve this problem will be greatly appreciated!

    Willy

    > The only thing that helps is restarted. The sound is so perfect even once immediately and for several days.

    HM strange s it seems that not a sound driver of the questions that you updated the audio driver as well.
    I'm not quite sure what could cause this clicking noise when using the Skype
    Maybe you should to reinstall Skype too.

    If this will not help, then you should clean the BONES using the CCLeaner. This tool is free and cleans the registry and operating system.

    But if you still notice the right question then you should check if the new OS install help.
    To do this, you must use the Toshiba recovery disc!

  • Problems of Smartphones Blackberry Storm 1 blackBerry with camera and clicking noise

    Hi, I'm really bad with technology if I appreciate all the comments! I want to see if my problem is a simple before I send mine to fix. My blackberry storm has recently made a low clicking noise when it is not hit. Also the camera does not work. I can see the image that I am about to take, but when I take a picture all I see is a black screen with random colors forming a line on the left side of the screen so no picture don't can be taken. What can I do? Thank you!

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    Each time a random strange behavior or slow creeps, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the hood back and remove the battery. Wait a minute, then replace the battery and cover. Power on and wait patiently through the long reboot - about 5 minutes. See if things return to functioning. Like all computing devices, BB suffers from memory leaks and others... with a hard reboot is the best remedy.

    Best!

  • Equium - hard drive makes clicking noises

    Hello, can someone please help?

    I think my laptop is in trouble, the hard disk (or I think it's the hard drive) is do a lot of clicking noises and my battery life is running down when the adapter is connected. It seems that run down when the drive made those rattling. When the power mode is energy-saving sometimes stops clicking and the battery life fills up again, but recently its been doing even in power saving mode.

    I'm moving all my files on an external hard drive, even though I have a lot of stuff on my lap top. I can't afford a new laptop

    Can someone help me please?

    Thank you

    Hey Buddy,

    How to help you without knowing your model mobile exact?

    Generally if the HARD drive makes clicking noises it s time to replace. Backup to an external drive has been a very good idea.

    And how you can lose the life of the battery if the AC adapter is plugged? I put t understand it.

  • Satellite C850 - clicking noise and freezes at startup

    When I start my computer, I get a clicking sound as the morse code and my computer freezes until the noise stops. Initially, I had 8 Windows on the computer and had the problem then.

    I hated Windows 8 anyway so I removed and installed Windows 7 Home Premium, thinking this would eliminate the problem but it did not. When I had Windows installed 8 noise would start at random times, but in Windows 7, it seems to happen at the beginning upward.

    Clicks can go for 5 minutes to 20 minutes and it doesn't make a difference if I restart the computer. The mouse can still be moved, but there is no response when I click on something.

    Some have suggested it's from the hard disk, but it is deffinately by speakers.
    When I'm able to change the volume, the volume by clicking changes also.

    It's driving me crazy!
    Anyone have any ideas as to what is causing this problem?

    > Some have suggested it's from the hard disk, but it is certainly by the speakers.

    I thought that you intervene on the rattling from the HARD drive noise

    Start Notepad, press F2 and access the BIOS.
    The clicking noise is noticeable now?

    What happens when the headphones are plugged?

  • Equium A100-147 - clicking noise from the HARD drive

    For awhile, I had clicking noise from the HARD drive and when the laptop could not, I assumed the reader was packed but trying a replacement nothing happens. I get a blue light for battery and a blue light (low) for the supply of direct current, but nothing for power or disc. However, when I plugged in an external drive yesterday it starts fine and when I unplugged the laptop continued to work the internal drive. But even once this morning he died and will not start. I read that the BIOS can stop recognizing the drive or maybe that the settings are not being saved when it is off. Could it be the motherboard battery?

    > reading the BIOS can stop recognizing the drive or maybe that the settings are not being saved when it is off

    Enter the Bios (press f2 at startup) and check if it recognizes the hard disk. You can see on the home page or the boot option in the Bios.
