[comp.sys.mac.hardware] Laserwriter IINT behaving weird

mikec@wheaties.ai.mit.edu (Mike E. Ciholas) (06/07/90)

I have a laserwriter II NT that displays the following problems:

1. Randomly throughout the day, the printer will reset itself on about an
average of 2 hours.

2. While printing a document, it will somtimes reset in the middle of the job.
This occurs more frequently than number 1.

I have disassembled the printed and checked all connections, wires cables, etc.
and have found no intermittent problems.  I don't have any hardware to
swap in to localize the problem to either the engine or the controller card.

Any ideas?

I am about to reheat all the solder connection on the controller card figuring
one of them must be out.
