4-2 Maintenance and Adjustments.
Cleaning the Printer and Accessories To maintain the print quality and paper performance, thor oughly clean the printer and the paper handling accessories: • Every time you change the toner cartridge. • After printing approximately 15,000 images. • Whenever print quality problems occur.
Cleaning the Printer 1 Before you begin these steps , turn the printer OFF and unplug all cords. 2 Open the top cover of the printer and remove the toner cartridge. WARNING! Avoid touching the adjacent fusing area. It may be HOT. Caution Do not touch the transfer roller (A).
Cleaning Spilled T oner Defective toner cartridges can develop leaks. Also, after a paper jam has occurred, there may be some toner remaining on the rollers and guides inside the printer. The pages that print immediately after the jam may pick up this toner.
Preventative Maintenance The user-conducted preventive maintenance cycle for this printer is every 350,000 images. The part numbers for the preventive maintenance kits are C3971A for the 100V printers, and C3972A for the 220V printers.
T ray 2 and 3 Adjustment Procedure The paper trays are mechanically aligned to the printer chassis at the factory. Perform this procedur e ONLY if a paper tray has been replaced with a tray other than the original factory installed unit, or if the top margin of the image area is off-center more than 0.
Note Refer to Figure 4-2. Each adjustment notch changes the physical position of the tray by 0.5 mm (0.02 in). Moving the lever counter-clockwise moves the tray inward and increases distanc e A. Moving the lever clockwise moves the tray outward and decreas es distance A.
T ray 4 Adjustment Procedure In some cases, the registration from Tray 4 (HCI) causes pr int to start too close to the edge of the paper. This situation is not a typical occurrenc e. In most cases the Tray 4 offset is fine. Although this may or may not be within specification, it is unacceptable to some users.
10 Tighten both screws. 11 Reassemble the vertical transfer unit. 12 Make sure all the cables (vertical transfer unit and paper deck drive assembly) are reconnected. 13 Reinstall left, right, and rear covers to the HCI. Note The locating pin position at the middle could still be unacceptable for some customer’s applications.

Basic Printer Functionality This chapter presents a functional overview of the pr inter and the printing processes. The following topics, functions, and systems are discussed: • Basic Printer Functi.
Printer Functional Block Diagram Figure 5-1 is a functional block diagram of the printer showing the basic paths for signal, control, and media. F unctionalBlockDiagram { { { MediaPath Signal.
Power Distribution System The AC and DC power supply circuits are contained in the Low Voltage Power Supply (LVPS). The high voltages required for image formation ar e generated by the High Voltage Power Supply (HVPS). The Low Voltage Power Supply and Distribution System is illustrated in Figure 5-2.
AC Power Distribution The AC power circuitry supplies AC voltage whenever the power cord is connected, and the power switch is ON. A toner cartridge must be installed and the top access door must be closed before AC voltage is supplied to the DC power circuits or the Fusing Assembly.
High V oltage Power Distribution The High Voltage Power Supply (HVPS, see Figure 5-4) applies a DC biased AC voltage to the primary charging roller and the developing roller, and a programmed DC voltage (depending upon the phase of the printing proc ess) to the Transfer Roller.
Formatter System The Formatter PCA is responsible for the following: • Controlling the PowerSave mode. • Receiving and processing pr int data from the various printer inter faces. • Monitoring Control Panel inputs and relaying printer status information (through the Control Panel and the Bi-Directional I/O).
Note Printer error messages overr ide the PowerSave message. The printer will enter PowerSave mode at the appropriate time, but the error message will continue to be displayed.
DC Controller System The following systems and functions are controlled by the DC Controller PCA: • DC Power Distribution (+5V DC, +12V DC, +24V DC) • Laser and Scanner Drive • Paper Motion Moni.
Engine T est Microswitch The Engine Test Microswitch, located on the DC Controller PCA, is activated manually through the square access hole at the right rear of the printer (see Figure 6-4).
Image Formation System Laser printing requires the interaction of several different technologies (such as electronics, optics, and electrophotographics) to provide a printed page. Each process functions independently and must be coordinated with the other printer processes.
T oner Cartridge The toner cartridge is the “heart” of the Image Formation System. It houses the cleaning, conditioning, and developing steps of the process. The toner cartridge contains the photosensitive drum, primar y charging roller, developing station, toner cavity, and cleaning station.
Drum Cleaning The cleaning blade inside the toner cartridge is in contact with the surface of the drum at all times. As the drum rotates during printing, excess toner is removed from the drum surface and stored in the waste toner receptacle inside the toner cartridge.
Drum Conditioning After the drum is physically cleaned, it is conditioned by applying a uniform negative charge across the surface of the drum with the pr imary charging roller, located in the toner cartridge.
Image W riting During the writing process, a modulated laser diode projects a beam onto a rotating six-sided scanning mirror. As the scanning mirr or rotates, the beam is directed through a set of focusing lenses to a dir ection changing mirror which reflects it through a slot on the top of the toner cartridge, and onto the photosensitive drum.
Image Developing The developing process changes the latent electrostatic image into a visible image by depositing negatively charged toner particles on the exposed areas of the drum. The developing station is located inside the toner cartridge and consists of a metallic cylinder that rotates around a fixed magnetic core.
Image T ransferring and Media Separation During the image transferring process, the toner image on the drum surface is transferred to the media. A positive char ge applied to the back of the media by the transfer roller, causes the negatively char ged toner particles on the drum surface to be attracted to the media.
Image Fusing The Fusing Assembly bonds the toner particles into the media with a heated fusing roller and a soft pressure roller. There ar e two levers on the Fusing Assembly which adjust roller pressure for single sheets (down position), or envelopes (up position).
Paper Paths and Components Printer, Duplex Unit, and Envelope Feeder The components of the printer paper path are illustrated in Figur e 5-14. Figure 5-15 and Table 5-1 illustrate and describe all of the printer sensors, solenoids, clutches, motors, and fans.

Printer Input Sources Paper Size Switches The paper guides in Trays 2 and 3 operate four levers at the back of the trays which activate the size sensing switches (SW1601 through SW1604) mounted in the printer chassis. Table 5-8 compares paper sizes to switch conditions.
Printing from T ray 1 The presence of paper in Tray 1 is detected by the Tray 1 Paper Present Sensor (PS1301). The lifting plate pressurization solenoid (SL2) is then activated, releasing the plate which applies upward pressure on the paper, causing it to contact the Tray 1 pickup roller.
Paper Jam Detection The PIU Sensor (PS2), the Registration Sensor (PS1), the Fuser Delivery Sensor (PS1403), and the Face-Down Delivery Sensor (PS1402) detect when paper is moving through the printer (see Figure 5-15 for sens or locations). If a paper jam is detected, the DC Controller immediately stops the printing process and causes a 13.

Power -On Overview It is important to have the printer’s Control Panel functional as soon as possible in the troubleshooting process so that the printer’s diagnostics can assist in locating printer err ors. Problem Action 1. Is AC power avai lable at the printer ’ s power receptacle? V erify .
Fan Location and Airflow Note When the printer is in PowerSave mode, the fans are off. Fan Number Fan Name Fan Location 1 Laser/Scanner fan Exhaust air fl ows from the back of the printer , on the left-hand side of the fus ing assembly . 2 Low-voltage Power Supply Lower right-hand c orner of the printer .
Engine T est The engine test verifies that the print engine is functioning correctly. The Formatter PCA is completely bypassed during an engine test. This test is very useful for isolating printer problems.
Display Overview Use the printer’s Control Panel to access the error log to troubleshoot the printer. With the printer’s test menu, you can access the printer’s error log to display more information about the current error. The er ror log retains the printer’s last 50 error messages.
Configuration Use the configuration pages to verify the proper installation of accessories, options, and personalities. When you print the configuration pages, the printer checks its internal controller and I/O interface, then pr ints two pages. One shows the overall printer configuration, and the other one shows the current menu settings.
Device Action if installed and not detected Duplex Unit Power-off, reseat, veri fy connector is not broken, then replace duplex cabl e and/or duplex unit and power-on.
Configuration Page Illustration and Key Configuration Page Example The default S/N is AAXXYY99999. To set the correct S/N, refer to the SERVICE MODE procedure in Chapter 3 of this manual. The three most recent error log messages display here. All the paper handling devices that are physically present should be lis ted in this section.

Communications Link (C-Link) Cables Communications Link (C-Link)Cables, Supported Daisy Chain Connections All C-Link cables have a single dot molded into the device output connector cable end, and two dots molded into the device input connector cable end.
Image Quality When you are working with customers, obtain a print sample before you begin troubleshooting their printer. Ask the customer to explain the quality they expect from the printer. The print sample will also help clarify the customer’s explanation.
Check the T oner Cartridge Image formation defects are often the result of toner cartridge problems. If there is any doubt, always replace the toner cartridge before troubleshooting image defects. Use the following check list to ensure that the toner cartridge is still operable.
Error Log Use the error log to diagnose and tr oubleshoot printer err ors and intermittent failures. Also, you can use "Show Error Log" under "Display and Evaluate the Error Log" discussed earlier in this chapter. Print and Evaluate the Error Log The printer’s internal error log stores the last 50 errors and can be printed.
Whenever a 13.xx appears on the Control Panel, a good practice is to clear all the paper from the printer, take the printer offline, and print the er ror log. If you cannot print the error log, you can still display it on the display panel. Write the error next to the last error logged.
Communication Ask the customer to run a print job from the host system. If the print job is successful, proceed to the following step, “Ver ification.” V erify Communication Print the PCL configuration page and study the HP MIO block. The MIO block will appear on the bottom portion of the configuration page.
• The "Novell Status" block should state the Novell printer server name to which the printer is connected. If the node name reads "NPIxxxxxx" (xxxxxx=last six digits of the MIO’s LAN address), the MIO card has not been configured for a Novell server.
V erification Paper Path T est Using the error trend information from Step 5 (Er ror Log), you may verify a specific printer paper path with the paper path test. You must first set the desired paper destination in the configuration menu and then select the paper path test.
Paper Path Test Source and Output Selection Customer Print Job Ask the customer to send a print job from the problem sour ce(s) to the problem destination(s). Try to recreate the paper jam err ors by having the customer do typical print jobs and the type of print job that has been causing the paper jams.
Reference Control Panel Messages and Errors Printer messages displayed on the control panel provide five categor ies of information. Each message category is assigned a priority. If more than one condition occurs at the same time, the highest priority message is displayed.

Print Voids on pages after coming out of POWER SAVE mode. Turn POWER SAVE off (POWER SAVE is an item under the CONFIGURATION MENU) and retry. Jams when printing envelopes, transparencies, or labels to MultiBin Mailbox or Stapler . MultiBin Mailbox does not support these media.
Wrinkling Envelopes 1 Place Fusing Levers in UP position and retr y envelopes. 2 Try new media. Verify Envelopes are within specifications. See LaserJet Family Paper Specifications Guide . Poor Fusing 1 Verify Fusing Levers are in the down position for cut sheet paper.
If the paper path test works, it may be a software or user related issue. Perform the following steps: 1 Define the media types which are loaded in each paper tray. This can be done from either JetAdmin or the front contr ol panel of the printer. From JetAdmin • Select the Trays tab.
Caution Do not make changes to the driver unless the application does not provide this option. Print job settings selected through your application always override settings made through theprinter driver. Printer settings made in the application or print driver always override the cor responding setting made on the printer Control Panel.

B I/O Information IEEE 1284 Parallel Cable Information The IEEE 1284 parallel interface is compatible with Centronics parallel interfaces. To take advantage of its enhanced capabilities such as bi-dir.
Parallel Cable Pin Configuration For best results, use the C2951A cable, or equivalent. Caution Ensure that all power and interface cables on the printer and host c omputer are properly gr ounded in compliance with local codes.
Connecting to LocalT alk Networks The printer does not come with a LocalTalk network cable. Use a standard LocalTalk network cable and connector kit, such as the HP LocalTalk Network Cable Kit, part number 92215N. You will need one connector kit for each printer on the network, and another for each Mac intosh computer on the network.
Connecting to the MIDDLE of a LocalT alk Network Connecting to the MIDDLE of a LocalTalk Network (1 of 2) 1 Disconnect the printer from its power sourc e. Insert the new connector box cable into the LocalTalk port of the printer. 2 Insert one end of the new cable into the connector box.
Connecting to a Network. The printer supports up to four different cables: IEEE 1284 parallel, (Figure B-5, callout 1), BNC (ThinLAN) (Figure B-5, callout 2), 10Base-T (RJ-45) (Figure B-5, callout 3), and DIN-8 (LocalTalk) (F igure B-5, callout 4).
DIN-8 (LocalTalk) Interface Plug the end of the DIN-8 cable into the LocalTalk port on the HP JetDirect card. Note If you are using only the LocalTalk port, 18 MIO NOT READY will appear every time you turn on the printer. This message will automatically disappear after 5 minutes.
Configuring Novell NetWare Frame Type Parameters. Normally selecting a NetWare frame type is not required. The HP JetDirect card automatically selects a NetWare frame type, and only when this selection is incorrect do you have to set the NetWare fram e type through the HP LaserJet 5Si MX c ontrol panel.
Configuring TCP/IP Parameters The HP JetAdmin utility for UNIX (sold separately) may be used to configure TCP/IP parameters. If you do not have the HP JetAdmin utility for UNIX, or you are using a UNI.
Configuring Apple EtherTalk Phase Parameter To configure EtherTalk parameters: 1 If you do not want to configure the phase parameter, Press [On Line] . 2 Press [Item] . CFG ETALK=NO * appears. 3 Press [+] . CFG ETALK=YES appears. 4 Press [Select] . CFG ETALK=YES * appears.
Disable Network Protocols (Optional). 1 Press [On Line] to take the printer offline. 2 Press [Menu] repeatedly until MIO MENU appears. 3 Press [Item] . CFG NETWORK=NO * appears. 4 Press [+] . CFG NETWORK=YES * appears. 5 Press [Select] . CFG NETWORK YES * appears.
