Office Jet 3830 printer
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

My Office Jet 3830 printer is missing its paper width guide.  I cannot find anywhere to buy a replacement or even find a part number listed anywhere to google it.  Does anyone know the part number or have any suggestions on how to jerryrig my own paper guide?  My paper is feeding through skewed without it.

Small printers like this have no available parts beyond sometimes paper trays and power supplies. Your best bet is to check Ebay. I do not know what the guides look like so I cannot advise on any kind of jury-rig for it.
