Printer & Devices

Michigan · Remote & On-Site

A printer that won't connect, a scanner that stopped working, or a new phone or tablet you need set up — FixlyDesk techs handle the everyday devices that somehow always break at the worst time.

What This Covers

  • Printer won't print
  • Wireless printer setup
  • Scanner not working
  • Ink or toner issues
  • New phone or tablet setup
  • Data transfer to a new device
  • Smart TV & streaming device setup
  • Smart home camera & doorbell setup
  • Smart speaker & voice assistant setup
...and more. Don't see your exact issue? Post it anyway — techs cover far more than what's listed here.

What Affects the Cost

Techs quote device work themselves and you approve the price before anyone starts, so what you pay reflects the job actually in front of them. Most of it comes down to how many devices have to end up talking to each other, and whether someone needs to be standing next to the hardware to make that happen.

One device or several
A single printer that lost its Wi-Fi is usually the cheapest thing on this list, while a new phone, a smart doorbell, and every laptop in the house that has to print again is a much longer job.
Remote or on-site
Driver problems, phone setup, and most data transfers can often be handled remotely, but a jammed feed roller, a camera that needs mounting, or a printer that won't join the network at all usually needs a tech standing next to the hardware.
Parts, ink and mounting hardware
Toner, a replacement cable, a wall bracket, or a chime adapter for a doorbell are separate from the tech's time, and a tech will tell you what's needed before anything gets bought.
How old the device is
A current printer with drivers the manufacturer still publishes takes far less chasing than a discontinued model, and a tech may tell you plainly that a replacement costs less than the time it would take to keep the old one limping along.
What's on the old phone
Moving contacts and photos between two working phones on the same platform is quick, while crossing from Android to iPhone, pulling data off a device that no longer turns on, or untangling old accounts and two-factor logins takes considerably longer.
Where smart devices get installed
A speaker on a shelf is quick, but cameras and doorbells that involve ladder work, existing wiring, or a dead Wi-Fi spot at the far end of the house add time to the visit.

Costs vary. FixlyDesk doesn’t set prices — the tech who takes your request quotes the job, and you see and approve that quote before any work begins. Posting a request is free, and you’re under no obligation to accept an offer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you fix a printer that won't connect to Wi-Fi?

Yes — wireless printer setup and connectivity issues are one of the most common requests techs handle.

Do you help transfer data to a new phone?

Yes — setting up a new phone or tablet and transferring your contacts, photos, and apps from an old device is covered.

What if my printer is old or the drivers are outdated?

Techs can troubleshoot driver issues, or give you an honest read if a device is past the point of being worth fixing.

Do I need to be there when the tech sets up my printer?

For on-site work, someone should be there to let the tech in and to sign in to whatever accounts the device needs — your Wi-Fi, your Apple or Google account, the printer maker's app. You don't have to hover once that part is done. Remote sessions are different: you'll need to be at the computer to start the connection and to see what the tech is doing.

What should I have ready before a tech shows up?

Have the device's model number, your Wi-Fi password, and the logins for any accounts tied to it. If you're moving to a new phone or tablet, charge the old device and make sure you can still unlock it — a locked-out old phone turns a straightforward transfer into a much slower one. If ink or toner is part of the problem, mention in your request whether you already have replacements on hand.

How long does it take to set up a new phone or tablet?

A move between two working phones on the same platform is often a single session. It stretches when you're crossing from Android to iPhone, when there are years of photos and messages to carry over, or when old accounts send two-factor codes to a number you no longer use. Describe what you're moving from and to in your request so a tech can size it up before quoting.

What if my printer can't be fixed — can a tech help me pick a new one?

Many techs will, and it's worth asking for it in your request. A tech can point you toward something that fits how you actually use it — a printer that takes cheaper ink, a tablet that works with the accounts you already have — then set the new one up and move your data across. That part is quoted separately, and you approve it before it happens.
