As a printer technician, your primary duties are to install new printers and provide maintenance on current printers. You troubleshoot and repair issues related to hardware and equipment. Replacing new ink cartridges, completing printer setup, ensuring the paper is loaded correctly, assisting with copying and faxing, reconnecting network configurations, and providing support in person and over the phone are regular responsibilities of the job. You also acquire parts and supplies, fix malfunctions, and make software updates. A printer technician may travel to various locations to service printers or work in a large, corporate office and assist with only their printers.
