I tend to follow the mantra, don't replace anything, unless it's broke. The things that have been well documented on the Z3100 as needing replacement are as follows--
1. Drive belt, when there are consistent signs of black flecks on your prints.
2. Parking station--This is probably what might need attention on your machine, since you don't use it much. Also replace the felt "Spitoon stations" or clean them if they have ink build up on them.
3. Power supply fan--Instead of just replacing the fan, repair people replace the whole power supply. If the fan has failed, chances are you might have damaged the power supply also!
4. Formatter board--This has a hard drive on it, which is usually the source of the failure--expensive proposition.
This pretty much covers the failures that I have seen posted about this machine. If anyone else has experienced anything else, please chime in.
