Product: HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M281fdw
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

My Laser Jet Pro MFP M281fdw printer recently started squeaking at the end of a print job. It typically doesn't squeak during the printing until the last page and then only when that page is almost done. It does not appear to be connected to printer cartridge squeaking as has been reported in other posts.

 

Is the squeak when the print head resets to the ready position or something else? Can it be fixed (lubricated?) in the office or must it be taken to a service center? Thanks for your help.
