Pergo HP LaserJet 2100M Single Sheet Feed Door Latch

thingiverse

I had a HP Laser Jet 2100M with a broken single sheet feed door mechanism completely malfunctioning.\r\nYou couldn't close the door and keep it shut because there was a crucial plastic piece missing that held the door in place. This tiny little component was supposed to secure the door, but with it broken, the door would constantly come open again.\r\n\r\nIn that area is a cavity where this custom-designed piece fits snugly into place using a pressure fit, effectively replacing the original retainer clip.\r\nI'm guessing that this might be a widespread problem, so I shared my fix for it online. My post has received many "Collects" and adds to the "to be printed" list, which suggests that many others have faced this issue too!\r\n\r\nI 3D printed in ABS because it offers more give than other materials, but it's not flexible. However, I see no reason why PLA or nylon wouldn't be an ideal match as well.
