    High frequency noise from the printer
    « on: December 19, 2011, 01:44:45 AM »
    Dear Tech Experts,
                              As soon as I on my printer, a loud high-pitched noise comes from the printer that never used to
    come earlier. After this noise ends, the printer switches off. The model is HP Stylus T11.

      Check if the belt, which houses the cartridge, moves inside the printer or not. It might be the motor that is causing the screeching sound, during the initialization phase of the printer on turning it ON.

      Don't know if this related experience will help.  Their only real relation is they are both HP printers.

      I have seen this quite a few things. Could well be a jammed or stuck print head. The fact that the printer switches off points to this.
