Printer makes annoying "horn like' noise; loud and lengthy

On this printer the noise is probably coming from one of the toner cartridges. If you have any spares or empty ones, just remove one at a time and replace even with empty one just to see if the noise goes away. It could also be one of the motors or fans but not being at the printer it is hard to tell. If you can put your ear to the printer and pinpoint the location of the noise and describe here we may be able to help.

Thanks; I'll give the cartridges a try plus an "ear to the p[rinter inards"...GP
