While preparing an ink cartridge I dropped one of the plastic pull-off strips into the open printer.  It tore my transfer belt.  I'm having a hell of a time figuring out how to get it repaired, and even whether it's worth it.  Anybody experienced this?

What printer do you have. Typically you would need to replace the torn belt and that may or may not be worth it. Check Ebay.

It's an HP Color Laser Jet M252dw.  Will replacing the transfer belt set me back as much as a new printer?  Thanks for your help.

300 for an OEM on Ebay. Not worth it at that price unless you have lots of spare cartridges.
