Spare parts for a HP printer
      Sun Dec 16 2007 09:48 AM

I have a Hewlett Packard Deskjet 5550 printer. Unfortunately, a small, easily accessible and replaceable plastic component has broken rendering the printer unuseable. Does anyone have any information about where I could obtain a replacement part?

The component in question is the tiny, spring-mounted piece of black plastic which pushes against a lug on the colour ink cartridge when the blue locking arm is pushed down and clicked into place.

I built it up with Araldite some time ago, but that has now failed.

It would be so easy to remove one of these silly little pieces of plastic from a "dead" printer and use it to repair mine.

HELP! Anybody????
