Problems with HP 2840 printer

[rossilinni]

I have just got a HP 2840 multi-function centre.

The unit seems OK but I am conisistently getting an problem. It will say "fan error 57 turn off then on " in multifunction centre display. You do that problem seems rectified for a while - but then it comes back.

Does anyone have any experience with this or suggestions.

Thanks

I bought the damm thing on Ebay - although it was new and in a box etc etc - I will contact the person I bought it from and see if I can resolve.

Sounds like maybe I should have just paid full price at a retailer :ugh:
