Panasonic FP-7718 worth saving?

[tcrain]

I am a small business owner, and one of the guys brought in a Panasonic FP-7718 and it is flashing E-3, 11. we are wondering is it worth having someone come out and fix it? Thanks for any ideas. Tim

FP-7718

not a bad machine ,basic but ok.one of the last decent panasonics.
now to your error code it is either the charge or transfer corona arcing out or broken .the ends of the coronas get toner on them and short out .they either need cleaning or replacing usually just a clean with a vac and brush.
hope this helps

Its old and obsolete, its probably going to cost you about $150.00 to fix, if you like the machine and it suits your needs then...
