    Anyone know some decent places to get my poor Canon BJS 900 printer fixed? It has a serious power issue (it aint powering up).

    The only one that i know of is Bryan S Ryan in Tallaght who will charge €80 to have a gander at it then whatever price the parts will be on top.

    If I was you, I would start there. I have used them in the past and they are excellent. A forum for diagnosing your problem, and a list of printer repair kits that can be ordered (by CC from California) with instructional video (on cd) included.

    I have used this service more than once and was impressed. Heck, the delivery time from them was generally quicker than from companies in the UK!

    Im in Inchicore at the mo'. Probably a bit too far of a run for you Tonky.

    I would be fairly comfortable replacing parts myself but with a complete no power situation it could be a number of faulty parts and i dont fancy forking out on a process of elimination plus i dont really have the time to start breaking/fixing it :)

    Its a Bubblejet Canon BJS900

    Toss it. inkjets are a waste of time. Two ink cartridges cost about the same as one cheap printer. Thats why when they sell them new they come with a half-filled cartridge to "get you started".

    buy a second hand laser and youlll be laughing all the way to the bank for years.

    If you're tossing that printer, I'll take it off your hands for spares, will collect...

    If it was a cheap inkjet i would, but its actually a reasonably expensive photo quality printer.
