lexmark x83 scanner("color copier" and injet printer also in same box).

Belt says
pioneer rubber belt 397 MXL

Lexmark says "it is cheaper to replace [their equipment] than to repair
it" so they don't stock parts any more.

Since you can't buy it from Lexmark, you google around (lexmark
replacemnt part) and find that independent parts houses are taking up the
slack. For example:

I had tried google but got no hits that were useful. Perhaps too specific
or not specific enough.

Not sure if sparepartswarehouse can help either, but have submitted an
enquiry to them. The part that shows at the above link may or may not be
what I need but since it seems to be a laser printer belt, I have some
doubts, but we will see what they say.

Thanks for the help.
