My LaserJet Pro M254DW has developed an annoying low pitched squeaking sound prior to and after printing. Is this a known issue? Will it get worse? And can it be resolved?
Doesn't appear to be have impact on printing speed or quality.
Many thanks,
Nick

Hello @npearson ,

These noises come from defective toner cartridges!
Print a supplies status page, scan the page at 200dpi and upload the file here.
Hope this helps! Keep me posted.

The supplies looks good.
But, I recognize 3 toners (Not from HP).
I suspect that one / all 3 toners are causing this noise.
Remove these 3 toners and print one page, black only (no color).
Are the noises still present?
Regards
Andreas

The printer won't print with any of the cartridges removed. Oddly when I replaced the cartridges the noise has gone. If it comes back I will try swapping out cartridges with genuine HP ones.
Thank you for your suggestion.

Do not wait too long, these cartridges can destroy the DC motor.
