Ouch my head

Ever hear one of those really high pitched grinding noises? You know the kind that just screams “Metal rubbing against metal” and makes you want to run as far away as possible so the noise will stop making your brain vibrate? It’s really not good when a printer makes that sound, is it?

I don’t see much of a point in trying to have a printer tech come and replace those moving parts, do you?
