Xerox WorkCentre M940 System Error F900

"Xerox WorkCentre M940 System Error F900"

It is a three in one Printer/Scanner/Copier, which, very dissapointingly, is no longer supported by Xerox. (And this just one year after purchase!)

You would think that they could have done a swap for an equivalent HP 3in1 at the Dealership where you purchased it from.

Great pity because it not only matched the Computer Hardware color and styling, but really is/was a great printer!

Anyone know what this error message means and how to fix it?

I have re-installed the driver only from the Xerox CD-ROM several times without success now.

Another strange thing is that there WAS a driver available in the list of drivers from the install printer menu in Windows ME, but now this has disappeared too!

Is there some sort of a conspiracy going on?

Where can anyone go these days to get professional help for this model Xerox printer?

Any help would be VERY MUCH appreciated.

Thank you Meese. Tried that one some time ago. It sems as if there is a module which has blown inside the printer.

Problem is identifying it and getting a repair done.

Any Xerox technicians out there?

Help!

Looks like you are getting screwed on this one .

I have been searching for about 15 minutes and all I have found is that this is not an uncommon problem. Might be why Xerox kicked it to the curb .

Thank you Aaron.

I'll try the Xerox SOHO (Small Office Home Office) Department on Monday, and see if I get any joy there.

Thanks for trying.
