Our Comprehensive Printer Repair and Maintenance Services

At Vandeberg Imaging Supplies, we offer more than just basic repairs. We provide a full suite of services designed to keep your printer running efficiently and extend its lifespan.

In-Depth Diagnostics & Troubleshooting: Our repair process begins with a thorough diagnostic assessment. Using advanced tools and our technicians' extensive knowledge, we accurately identify the root cause of the problem, ensuring that the repair addresses the underlying issue, not just the symptoms. This includes:

• Running comprehensive print tests to evaluate print quality and identify specific defects.

• Utilizing specialized software to read error codes and access internal printer logs.

• Performing hardware inspections to check for worn or damaged components.

• Testing connectivity and network communication to diagnose online/offline issues.

Hardware Repairs & Part Replacements: Our technicians are skilled in performing a wide range of hardware repairs, from replacing worn-out rollers and separation pads that cause paper jams to more complex procedures like replacing fuser units, formatter boards, and power supply units. We understand the importance of using quality components, and we exclusively use genuine or high-quality compatible parts to ensure the reliability and longevity of your repaired printer.

WIC Reset and Waste Ink Pad Reset Services (Epson): A common issue with many Epson inkjet printers is the "service required" error caused by a full waste ink pad counter. Our specialized WIC (Waste Ink Counter) reset service correctly resets this counter, and we can also replace the saturated waste ink pads to prevent ink overflow and potential damage to the printer.

Firmware & Software Updates: Outdated printer firmware or software can lead to compatibility issues, performance problems, and security vulnerabilities. Our services include updating your printer's firmware to the latest version and ensuring that the necessary drivers and software are correctly installed and configured on your connected devices.

Printhead Cleaning and Replacement: Clogged or damaged printheads are a frequent cause of poor print quality in inkjet printers. We offer professional printhead cleaning services to clear blockages and restore print quality. In cases where the printhead is irreparable, we can replace it with a genuine or high-quality replacement part.

Paper Path and Feeding Mechanism Repair: Issues with paper feeding are among the most common printer problems. Our technicians are experts in identifying and repairing faults in the paper path, including worn rollers, damaged paper guides, and malfunctioning sensors, to ensure smooth and consistent paper handling.

Connectivity Troubleshooting (Wired and Wireless): In today's connected environments, printer network issues are increasingly common. We diagnose and resolve problems with Ethernet and Wi-Fi connectivity, ensuring your printer can communicate effectively with computers, mobile devices, and cloud printing services.

Scheduled Maintenance Packages: Prevention is often better – and more cost-effective – than cure. We offer customized preventive maintenance packages for businesses and organizations that rely heavily on their printers. These packages include regular cleaning, inspections, and proactive replacement of wear-and-tear parts to minimize the risk of unexpected breakdowns and extend the life of your equipment.

Common Printer Issues We Fix Daily

Our team encounters and resolves a wide variety of printer problems on a daily basis. Here are some of the most common issues that bring clients to our Nairobi repair center:

• Printer Not Printing: This seemingly simple issue can have multiple causes, from connectivity problems and outdated drivers to clogged printheads or empty cartridges. We systematically diagnose the reason and provide the appropriate fix.

• Paper Jams: Frequent or persistent paper jams are a sign of underlying issues with the paper path or feeding mechanism. We identify the cause, clear the jam safely, and repair or replace the faulty components.

• Poor Print Quality: Faded text, streaks, lines, blurry images, or incorrect colors are common print quality issues. We diagnose whether the problem is related to ink/toner levels, printhead condition, fuser unit, or software settings and rectify it.

• Printer Offline/Connectivity Problems: When your computer or device can't communicate with the printer, it can be incredibly frustrating. We troubleshoot wired and wireless network connections, driver issues, and printer configuration problems to get you back online.

• Error Codes: Printers often display cryptic error codes when something is wrong. Our technicians can interpret these codes for all major brands and know the specific steps required to resolve the underlying issue.

• Slow Printing: A printer that is significantly slower than usual can impact productivity. We investigate potential causes, including incorrect print settings, network congestion, or internal processing issues.

• Noisy Printer: Unusual grinding, clicking, or squealing noises can indicate mechanical problems, such as worn gears or misaligned parts. We diagnose the source of the noise and perform the necessary repairs.

• Blank Pages: If your printer is feeding paper but producing blank output, it could be due to empty cartridges, clogged printheads, or issues with the print driver or software. We identify the cause and restore proper printing.

• Duplex Printing Issues: Problems with automatic double-sided printing, such as paper jams or misalignment during the duplex process.

• Scanner or Copier Malfunctions (in All-in-One Printers): While our primary focus is printing, we also address issues with the scanning and copying functions of multifunction printers.

Beyond Printers: Diagnostics Device Repair

Our technical expertise at Vandeberg Imaging Supplies extends beyond just printers. We also possess capabilities in the repair of certain types of diagnostic devices, particularly those used in medical and laboratory settings.

Medical, Imaging & Lab Equipment Diagnostics and Repair: We understand the critical nature of diagnostic equipment in healthcare and research environments. While our specialization is focused, we can provide repair and maintenance services for select diagnostic devices that share similar electronic or mechanical components with printers or fall within our technical capabilities. This can include:

• Repair of imaging devices with printing capabilities or integrated scanners.

• Troubleshooting and repair of connectivity or printing functions on certain lab analysis equipment.

• Addressing power supply or control board issues in specific diagnostic units.

We encourage clients with diagnostic equipment repair needs to contact us to discuss their specific requirements and determine if their device falls within our service expertise.

2. Where is Vandeberg Imaging Supplies located in Nairobi? We are located in the Nairobi CBD at Odeon Cinema, Taveta Road, Iqbal Building, 1st Floor, Room 2.

3. Do you offer same-day printer repair services? We strive to provide same-day diagnostics and repair for many common printer issues, especially for clients who bring their printers to our Nairobi CBD center early in the day. More complex repairs or those requiring specific parts may take 24-48 hours or longer if parts need to be ordered. We will provide an estimated turnaround time after diagnosing the problem.

4. How can I get my printer repaired if I am outside of Nairobi? We serve clients across all counties in Kenya. You can securely package your printer and send it to our Nairobi CBD location via a reputable courier service. We will perform the repair and ship it back to you once completed. Contact us to arrange this process.

5. Are your printer repair technicians certified? Yes, our technicians are experienced, trained, and certified to repair various printer brands and models. As an Authorized Epson Repair Centre, our technicians meet Epson's specific training requirements.

6. Do you sell genuine printer parts and accessories? Yes, we stock and sell genuine and high-quality compatible printer parts and consumables, including ink and toner cartridges, drums, fusers, rollers, and more, for a wide range of brands.

7. Can I get a quote before the printer repair is done? Absolutely. We always conduct a diagnostic assessment first and then provide you with a clear, transparent quote for the repair cost before any work begins.

8. Do you repair diagnostic devices? Yes, we have expertise in repairing certain types of diagnostic devices, particularly those used in medical and lab settings, often focusing on issues related to printing, scanning, connectivity, or power. Contact us to inquire about your specific diagnostic equipment repair needs.

9. What are your operating hours? Our repair center is open from Monday to Saturday, 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM. We are closed on Sundays and public holidays.

10. How should I package my printer if I'm sending it for repair from outside Nairobi? To ensure your printer arrives safely, package it securely in its original box if possible. If not, use a sturdy cardboard box with adequate padding (like bubble wrap or foam) to prevent movement and damage during transit. Remove any ink or toner cartridges if recommended by the manufacturer, or ensure they are properly secured. Clearly label the box with our address and your contact information.

11. Do you offer maintenance contracts for businesses? Yes, we offer customized preventive maintenance contracts for businesses, schools, NGOs, and other organizations to ensure their printers remain in optimal working condition and minimize unexpected downtime.

12. What is a WIC reset, and why is it necessary for some Epson printers? WIC stands for Waste Ink Counter. Epson inkjet printers collect waste ink from cleaning cycles in an absorbent pad. The printer has a counter that estimates when this pad is full. When the counter reaches a certain limit, the printer stops working and displays a "service required" message to prevent ink overflow. A WIC reset is a procedure performed by technicians to reset this counter. It is often recommended to also replace the physical waste ink pad when performing a WIC reset to prevent actual ink overflow.
