LaserJet CM1415fn Making Noise Every 5 Minutes

‎08-16-2011 05:35 PM

After 3 months of perfect operation my CM1415fn has all of a sudden started making a strange noise every 5 minutes, like it's about to start printing.  I hear things move around like the scanner is moving, and then it settles down again.

 

Then 5 minutes later it does the same thing again.  This just started happening for no apparent reason.  It sounds like some sort of maintenance noise.

 

i've tried turning it off and back on, in fact I have to turn it off overnight as the noise wakes me up.

 

Why has this just started happening?  How can I stop this from happening?

FYI

 

I found the issue.   The printer was resetting. The cause is related to the Boxee Box that I just added to my network.  It is sending network packets that the Printer doesn't seem to like.

 

Information can be found at the link below on how to configure the printer to ignore these packets.
