Hi everyone wondered if anyone could shed any light on my pogo printer problem please.
I bought a secondhand pogo printer from ebay am lead to belive it only been used once.
Problem is the pictures are stripey I have looked on line and this seams to be a common problem. Ive tryed turning it on and leaving it to warm up, buying new paper and re-inserting the blue card several times these are all sugestions I have found on line but still the pictures are stripey.
I dont know what else I can do anybody got any more ideas or do you think Ive bought a dud one? should I try buying a new one?

I get this every now and again but if I run the blue card through it stops it.

Hi, I have had this problem a few times. Found a suggestion somewhere... can't remember where??? It said to run a piece of the photo printer paper through UPSIDE down. Success:clapping: So far this has worked on two seperate occassions.
Give it a try.
