Strange printer question!<br />
Just kidding, but did you turn the CD-ROM up to get something to fall out?<br />
What is the type and model number of your CD-ROM?<br />

Hi rmarotta,<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; No my disk problem isn't resolved yet. &nbsp;I've been told is is less expensive to just purchase a new CDrom instead of paying to get it fixed. &nbsp;By the way my computer is a Packard Bell Force 448CDT. <br />

CD ROM and a silver disk

A printer is a peripheral which makes a persistent human readable representation of graphics or text on paper or similar physical media. Traditional printers are being used more for special purposes, like printing photographs or artwork, and are no longer a must-have peripheral; 3D printing has become an area of intense interest, allowing the creation of physical objects. An image scanner is a device that optically scans images, printed text, handwriting, or an object, and converts it to a digital image. Hand-held scanners, where the device is moved by hand, have evolved from text scanning "wands" to 3D scanners used for industrial design, reverse engineering, test and measurement, orthotics, gaming and other applications.
