Maybole Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 My 5 year old Brother printer will not print yellow properly. Local computer repair shop (which is not a printer specialist) did a complete clean without result and suggests a repair will cost 3 to 4 k baht which is more than I paid for it. Can any member suggest a reliable printer repair specialist in the Chiang mai area who may be able to fix it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brommers Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Brother Service Centre is inside the moat near the corner where Mahidol joins at the 3 elephant statues. Google it for details. They open at 08:30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SammyJ Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 If it is too much, the simple choice is to buy a new printer--HP DeskJet 2300 All-in-One prints, scans, copies, as most do these days--must say, i looked at Siam TV and they wanted over 3000 baht for this printer--got it at IT city for 1700. As most already know, printers are cheap--they get you on replacement ink cartridges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most printers I've seen being sold here in Chiang Mai have either internal or external bulk tanks. I print every day, only add new ink once or twice a year from bulk bottles that cost relatively nothing, even when compared with a single cartridge.

I have exactly that Canon printer but do not print every day only 1/2 times per month. The problem is the ink/ink tubes clog up and their nozzle cleaning/deep cleaning does NOT clear the blockage. Time for me to buy a Laser jet printer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beau thai Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Just had our canon done on Panthip plaza. turn right off 1st escalator. Bon DD. Ours had also dried up and we bought a used but look new Canon copier scanner printer from Bon for 1500 baht. Less than the repair cost of the old one as the heads had gone -750 each to replace. Very pleased with the new achine. And I must remember to do an all colour print once a week to stop it drying out! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, my experience also, so that is why i stayed away from them--I don't print all that often, so am not replacing cartridges frequently--but, if printed regularly, might look for something like the laser jet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
