What to do.


Additional comments.


13.XX PAPER JAM [LOCATION]


Media is jammed at the specified location
(and possibly at other locations). If the message persists after all jams
have been cleared, a sensor or sensor lever might be stuck or broken.


For all jam messages, do the following: 1.
Remove jammed print media from the specified location. Check the entire paper
path for other pieces of media in the path. 2. Open and close the top cover
to clear the message. 3. Check sensors and flags in the paper path for proper
operation.


 


3.0 PAPER JAM [LOCATION]


A non-specific paper jam occurred.


1. Remove jammed media from the specified
location. 2. Verify the paper tray is fully closed. 3. Inspect and/or replace
the feed and separation rollers. 4. Ensure there is no obstruction in the
path, such as a torn piece of paper. 5. Open and close the top cover to clear
the message. 6. Check sensors and flags for proper operation.


 


13.1 PAPER JAM OPEN INPUT TRAYS


Paper-delay jam at paperfeed
area.


1. Ensure that paper trays are loaded and
adjusted properly so media can feed from the tray. It might be necessary to
reduce the stack height of media in the tray. 2. Check the input area for
obstructions such as media in the path. Also check to see if the registration
assembly damaged or unseated. 3. Replace any defective sensors or flags. 4.
Verify the media meets the specifications. 5. Check the pickup feed and
separation rollers for unusual wear. Replace as needed. 6. Rotate the media
in the input tray by 180° and/or turn it over


On NX engines this is most likely the fuser
flag or the ACPM. The ACPM has a photosensor
hard-wired to the back of it.


13.10 PAPER JAM CHECK DUPLEXER


Jam at duplexer.


1. Check the duplexer and the rear area of
the printer for obstructions or damage. 2. Check the duplexer for proper
operation. Replace the duplexer if a sensor is defective.


On a 5si, 8000, or 8100 series laserjet a Duplex Jam can be caused by a tray 2 and 3
feed assembly failure.


13.14


For Laserjet 5si.
This error is caused by a defective paper control PCA


Replace paper control PCA.


 


13.2 PAPER JAM OPEN INPUT TRAYS


Paper-stopped jam at paper-feed area.


1. Check the input area for obstructions
such as paper in the path. Also check to see if the registration assembly is
damaged or if the transfer roller is out of place. 2. Replace any defective
sensors or flags. 3. Ensure the media does not exceed the maximum length. 4.
If multiple sheets are feeding, it might be necessary to fan the media and
reduce the stack height. Also, replace separation pad. 5. Verify that the
fuser is properly installed.


On NX engines this is an input jam.


13.20 PAPER JAM CHECK REAR DOOR


Media stopped in the paper path during
power on or when the top door was closed.


1. Remove all media in the paper path, and
then open and close the top cover. 2. If the message persists after all media
is removed: Check if media is jammed in the prefeed
area. Replace any defective sensors or flags


 


13.21 DOOR OPEN JAM


The top cover was open while printing.


1. Clear the jam and close the top door. 2.
If the message persists, check the top door switch for proper operation.


 


13.5 PAPER JAM CHECK REAR DOOR


Paper-delay jam at fuser.


1. Check the transfer roller and small
media belt to ensure they are operating and can feed print media. 2. Check
the paper path for obstructions at the transfer roller, toner cartridge,
paper feed assembly, and fuser. 3. Replace any defective sensors or flags. 4.
Turn the media stack over and/ or rotate it by 180° in the input tray.


If still persists - replace fuser, then DC
controller.

You might have tried to transfer too many
macros, soft fonts, or complex graphics. Press GO to print the transferred
data (some data might be lost). Advise the customer to simplify the print job
or install additional memory


 


21 PAGE TOO COMPLEX


The data (dense text, rules, raster or
vector graphics) sent to the printer is too complex


Press GO to print the transferred data.
(Some data might be lost.) Advise the customer to simplify the print job.


More memory might help.

The connection has been broken between the
printer and the EIO card in the specified slot. (Data loss might occur in
this situation.)


1. Press GO to clear the error message and
continue printing. 2. Reseat the EIO card in slot [X].


 


41.3 UNEXPECTED PAPER SIZE


The printer detected a media size different
from what it was expecting. This is typically caused if two or more sheets
stick together in the printer or if the tray is not properly adjusted.


1. Reload the tray with the correct print
media size. 2. Ensure that media in the tray is loaded under the front and
back tabs. 3. If you are printing from tray 1, verify that the correct paper
size is selected in the control panel. 4. If you are printing from tray 2, 3,
or 4, verify that the three paper-size adjustments (length guide, width
guide, size-selector switch) on the paper tray have been made correctly. Make
sure the media is under the corner tabs. 5. After performing the actions
above, press GO. The page containing the error will automatically be
reprinted if jam recovery is enabled. (Or, you might want to press CANCEL JOB
to clear the job from the printer’s memory.)


For the 4000, 4050, and 4100 series the
paper feed assembly could be bad. Also the paper feed/registration sensors
could be knocked out of place. On EX engine printers this error is caused by
a bad PIU (paper input unit).


41.5 PRINTER ERROR


The media reached the PS102 or PS103 sensor
too early.


1. This error usually occurs with smooth
media, such as transparencies or labels. If the problem persists when using
tray 1, load media one sheet at a time. If the problem persists when using
trays 3 and 4, replace the feed and separation rollers. 2. Check sensors
PS102 and PS103 for proper operation


For the 4000, 4050, and 4100 series the
paper feed assembly could be bad. Also the paper feed/registration sensors
could be knocked out of place. On EX engine printers this error is caused by

The page containing the error will
automatically be reprinted. If the error persists: 1. Reseat the connections
to the laser scanner and then to the engine controller board. 2. Replace the
laser scanner. 3. Replace the engine controller board


 


49.XX PRINTER ERROR


A firmware error occurred


1. Press CANCEL JOB to clear the print job
from the printer memory. 2. Turn the printer off, and then turn the printer
on. 3. Try printing a job from a different software application. If the job
prints, go back to the first application and try printing a different file.
(If the message only appears with a certain software application or print
job, contact the software vendor for assistance.) 4. If the message persists
with different software applications and print jobs, disconnect all cables to
the printer that connect it to the network or printer. 5. Turn the printer
off. 6. Remove all memory DIMMs or third-party DIMMs from the printer. (Do
not remove the firmware DIMM in the lowest DIMM slot.) 7. Remove all EIO
devices from the printer. 8. Turn the printer on. 9. If the error no longer
exists, install each DIMM and EIO device one at a time, making sure to turn
the printer off and back on as you install each device. 10. Replace a DIMM or
EIO device if you determine that it causes the error. 11. Remember to
reconnect all cables that connect the printer to the network or computer. 12.
If the error persists, replace the firmware DIMM. 13. Replace the formatter.

Note The printer maintenance kit is a consumable item and is not covered
under warranty


 


PROCESSING CLEANING PAGE


The printer is conducting the manual
cleaning-page process.


Wait for the job to finish. This can take
up to 2.5 minutes.


 


PROCESSING JOB


The printer is processing a job.


Wait for the job to finish. This can take
several minutes for a complex print job.


If the printer "hangs up" on
processing a job then it could be a bad formatter board.


RAM DISK DEVICE FAILURE


The RAM disk had a critical or fatal
failure.


1. Reseat the RAM disk. 2. Replace the RAM
disk.


 


RAM DISK FILE OPERATION FAILED


The requested operation could not be

software utility. See the software online help for more information.) 2. If
the message persists, increase the size of the RAM disk. Change the RAM disk
size from the configuration menu on the printer control panel. HP Resource
Manager can also be used to increase or decrease the RAM disk size.


 


HP Laserjet Error
Codes S-Z


Message on printer Display Panel


What it means.


What to do.


Additional comments.


SHORTAGE PAGE SIMPLIFIED


The printer had to compress the job to fit
it in available memory. Some data loss might have occurred.


1. Press GO to continue. (The print quality
of these pages might not be acceptable.) Add more memory to the printer or to
simplify the print job


 


RAM DISK IS WRITE PROTECTED


RAM disk is protected, and no new files can
be written to it.


Disable the write protection through HP JetAdmin.


 


TONER LOW


The message first appears when about 15
percent of the toner is remaining in the toner cartridge (about 1,500 pages
remaining for the 10,000-page cartridge and about 900 pages remaining for the
6,000- page cartridge at five percent coverage). Depending on how the printer
has been configured in the configuration menu, it will either continue to
print or stop.


If the printer has stopped, you can resume
printing by pressing GO for each job.


The high voltage power supply could also
cause this error.


TONER OUT


The toner cartridge has run out of toner.
Depending on how the printer has been configured, it will either continue to
print or stop. Due to the resolution of the toner level sensor, it is
possible that a small amount of toner (less than one percent) might still be
present in the cartridge.


If the printer has stopped, you can resume
printing by pressing GO for each job. Replace toner cartridge.


The high voltage power supply could also
cause this error.


TRAY [X] EMPTY [TYPE] [SIZE]


The specified tray is empty, but the
current job does not need this tray in order to print correctly. If this
message appears and the tray contains print media, a sensor could be damaged.


1. Load the empty tray (x) to clear the
message. If you do not load the specified tray, the printer will continue
printing from the next available tray, and the message remains. 2. If the
message remains after the specified tray is loaded, check sensor arm flags
for damage and be sure they move freely. 4. Replace defective paper out sensors.


 


TRAY [x] LOAD [TYPE] [SIZE] where x is tray
2, 3, or 4


This message occurs for the following
reasons: Tray 2, 3, or 4 was requested, but the tray is empty. Tray 2, 3, or
4 was requested, but the adjustments are not set for the requested type or
size.


1. Make sure that all three paper size
adjustments have been made. Also make sure that the type has been set at the
control panel. 2. Load the requested media into an indicated tray. Ensure the
tray is fully seated.


Make sure the paper tray is set for the
proper size.


Also you might need to replace the cassette
size PCA.


TRAY 1 LOAD [TYPE] [SIZE]


The print job has requested a size and/or
type of media that is not loaded.


Load the requested print media into tray 1
(or any other desired tray). - Ensure that the trays are correctly adjusted
for size. - The tray type settings (and size for tray 1) must be set from the
paper-handling menu. If this message appears and the correct media is loaded:
- Ensure that all paper size adjustments have been properly performed (see
page 220). - Ensure the tray type setting is correct in the paper-handling
menu. - Check the size tabs on the right side of the tray. - Check the size
switches and paper sensors. - Ensure the tray is fully seated.


 


TRAY 1 SIZE = [xxxx]


The printer is asking what size of media
has been loaded in tray 1.


In response, you can take either of the
following actions: 1. Press SELECT to accept the paper size. 2. Press -VALUE+
to change the size and then press SELECT to accept the new size. The printer
will first display the TRAY 1 TYPE = XXXX message (see the description of
that message). If you do not press any buttons in the time-out period (about
one minute), it displays this TRAY 1 SIZE = XXXX message. Changing the size
here changes the default for tray 1 paper size in the paper-handling menu.


 


TRAY 1 TYPE = [xxxx]


The printer has received a job under the
three following conditions: - The media type requested by the job is not
available in the printer. - Tray 1 has been set for CASSETTE. - Media has
been placed in tray 1 (thus triggering tray 1’s paper sensor). If you do not
press any buttons, the message disappears in about one minute).


You can take either of the following
actions: 1. Press SELECT to accept the paper type. 2. Press -VALUE+ to change
the type and then press SELECT to select the new type. Note Changing the type
here changes the default for tray 1 media type in the paper-handling menu. If
you do not do anything during the time-out period (about one minute), the
printer will print on the media in tray 1.


 


UNABLE TO MOPY JOB


Memory or file system failures would not
allow a mopy job to occur. Only one copy will be
produced.


1. Reseat RAM DIMMs and/or the EIO hard
disk. 2. Install additional memory or an EIO hard disk.


 


UNABLE TO STORE JOB


Memory or file system failures would not
allow the print to store the job.


1. Reseat RAM DIMMs and/or the EIO hard
disk. 2. Install additional memory or an EIO hard disk.


 


UNSUPPORTED SIZE IN TRAY [yy]


An external paper-handling device detected
an unsupported media size. The printer will go offline until the condition is
corrected.


Verify the media meets the supported size
specifications


 


USE [TYPE] [SIZE] INSTEAD?


If the requested media size or type is not
loaded, the printer asks if it should use another size or type instead.


1. Press -VALUE+ to scroll through the
available types and sizes. 2. Press SELECT to accept the alternate type or
