Hi there,

I recently purchased a used HP LaserJet IIP printer and I am
having one small problem.  Whenever the gears turn (i.e., you see
the front feeders rotating), the printer makes an annoying
sqeaking sound.  HP says it may be the toner cartridge or the
printer itself.  Any ideas on how to find out and/or remedy the
problem (and no, I don't happen to have a spare toner cartridge to
test in the printer)?  It is rather annoying -- the squeak makes
more noise than the printer itself.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
