The paper feeding mechanism is broken and noisy. The papers are not drawn by it and it keeps clicking with a strange sound of ''tick tick"
I cannot contact the warranty while the printer is just 4 months old!
Frustrated!

Step 2: Make sure the ink cartridge carriage moves freely

Hi
Thanks for your reply.
I do not know why I cannot contact the support? The feeding mechanism is broken after only 3 months of buying the product and no need to beat around the bushes and ask me to do the silly troubleshooting which I didany times. Why I cannot send a maintenance request from the HP portal? Intuitively, I expect to click a maintenance request without asking me to call you by phone. This is an outdated practice!!!!
Please fix or replace this product!!! It is a quality issue, sir!!!!
I am now stuck and need to print my work papers!! I don't know how can a printer be broken after three months?? Is it made of cardboard???
