Homework - Part 5 Propose a solution (Complaining)

Hello! My name is Barbara Pridgen and I bought a printer from your dealer last
month. The model is SCO-1220. It had many features that were useful and I also
liked its performance. However, since last week, it has been making a strange
sound when the power is on even though it’s not printing anything. I guess it
needs some expert’s help. Could you tell me what I should do to have a technician
look at this printer? You can reach me at 6120-3345. Thanks. 


Read the telephone message above and leave the message with a suggestion.
(Write down your answer in a comment box please!)
