Tips for copy and scan success (MFP models only)


Follow these tips for successful copying and scanning.

Use the following tips to copy and scan successfully.

● Keep the glass and the back of the lid clean. The scanner interprets anything it detects on the glass as part
of the image.

● Load your original, print-side down, in the back-left corner of the glass.

● To make a large copy of a small original, scan the original into the computer, resize the image in the scanning
software, and then print a copy of the enlarged image.

● If you want to adjust scan size, output type, scan resolution, or file type, and so on, start scan from the
printer software.

● To avoid incorrect or missing scanned text, make sure the brightness is set appropriately in the software.

● If you want to scan a document with several pages into one file instead of multiple files, start the scan with
the printer software instead of selecting Scan from the printer display.

4 Theory of operation

This module provides an overview of the operation of major hardware components.

The information given here is at a high level. For more detailed information, see the product Service Manual,
or review the information in the HP LaserJet Theory and Troubleshooting Fundamentals - Service and Support
training course, Course ID: 0001091928.

Student performance objectives

By the completion of this module, students should be able to:

● Understand the basic theory of operation.

● Identify the printer's major hardware systems and components.

Basic operation
The printer routes all high-level processes through the formatter, which stores font information, processes the
print image, and communicates with the host computer.

The basic printer operation comprises the following systems:

● The engine-control system, which includes the high-voltage and low-voltage power supplies (HVPS and
LVPS), fuser control circuits, and the DC controller printed circuit assembly (PCA)

● The laser/scanner system, which forms the latent image on the photosensitive drum

● The image-formation system, which transfers a toner image onto the paper

● The pickup, feed and delivery system, which uses a system of rollers and belts to transport the paper
through the printer

● Accessory (optional paper feeders)

86 Chapter 4  Theory of operation


Figure 4-1 Relationship between the main printer systems

Formatter-control system
Learn about how the formatter operates.

The formatter performs the following functions:

● Controls the sleep delay function

● Receives and processes print data from the various printer inputs

● Monitors control panel functions and relaying printer status information through the control panel and the
network or bi-directional interface

● Develops and coordinates data placement and timing with the DC controller PCA

● Stores customer configuration settings and paper types.

● Stores font information

● Communicates with the host computer through the network or the bidirectional interface

The Printer job language (PJL) and Printer management language (PML) are also integral parts of the formatter
control system. For more information about these features, see the product Service Manual, or review the
information in the HP LaserJet Theory and Troubleshooting Fundamentals - Service and Support training course,
Course ID: 0001091928.

Engine-control system
The engine-control system receives commands from the formatter and interacts with the other main systems to
coordinate all printer functions.

Formatter-control system 87
Figure 4-2 Engine-control system

For detailed information about each of the components of the engine control system, see the product Service
Manual, or review the information in the HP LaserJet Theory and Troubleshooting Fundamentals - Service and
Support training course, Course ID: 0001091928.

Engine laser/scanner system


The laser/scanner system forms the latent electrostatic image on the photosensitive drum(s) inside the toner
cartridge(s).

The DC controller controls the laser scanner system according to commands from the formatter. The DC
controller controls the internal components in the laser scanner system to form the latent electrostatic image
on the photosensitive drum according to the VIDEO signals. The following are the main components of the laser
scanner system:

● Laser assembly

● Scanner motor assembly

● Beam detect (BD) sensor

● Scanner mirror

For detailed information about each of the components of the laser scanner system, see the product Service
Manual, or review the information in the HP LaserJet Theory and Troubleshooting Fundamentals - Service and
Support training course, Course ID: 0001091928.

Image-formation system
The image-formation system consists of the toner cartridge, the transfer charging roller, and the fuser.

When the formatter sends a print command, the image formation system completes the following process.

1. The main motor rotates the photosensitive drum, the primary charging roller, the developing cylinder, the
transfer charging roller, and the pressure roller.

88 Chapter 4  Theory of operation


2. The primary charging roller applies a uniform negative charge to the photosensitive drum surface.

3. The laser beams, modulated by signals from the formatter, focus on the photosensitive drum surface to
form a latent image.

4. Toner on the developing cylinder converts the latent image into a visible image, which is transferred onto
paper by the transfer charging roller.

5. The fuser applies heat and pressure to the toner image on the paper to make the image permanent.

6. The cleaning blade scrapes residual toner from the photosensitive drum.

7. The primary charging roller applies a new charge to the photosensitive drum for the next image.

For detailed information about the image-formation system, see the product Service Manual, or review the
information in the HP LaserJet Theory and Troubleshooting Fundamentals - Service and Support training course,
Course ID: 0001091928.

Document feeder / scanner (MFP models only)


The standard operation of the document feeder consists of the standby (paper loading) mode, pick, feed, and lift
steps.

When the printer duplex scans from the document feeder, the paper moves through one time, because the
document feeder has a contact image sensor (CIS) scanner for side two which is scanned simultaneously with
side one.

For more detailed information about the document feeder and scanner theory, see the product Service Manual,
or review the information in the HP LaserJet Theory and Troubleshooting Fundamentals - Service and Support
training course, Course ID: 0001091928.

Troubleshooting power-on or blank control panel problems


If the printer is not powering on correctly, use the following steps to begin troubleshooting the problem.

1. Verify that power is available to the printer. If the printer is plugged into a surge protector or uninterruptible
power supply (UPS), remove it. Plug the printer directly into a known operating wall receptacle (make sure
that the wall receptacle provides the correct voltage and current for the printer).

NOTE: Unplug any other devices on the same circuit that the printer is using.

2. Try another known operating wall receptacle and a different power cord.

3. To eliminate a thermal switch issue, unplug the power cord and leave it unplugged for over 20 minutes.
Re-attach the power cord, and then turn the power on again.

4. During normal operation, a cooling fan or fans begin to spin briefly after the printer power is turned on.
Place a hand over the cover vent or vents to feel air passing out of the printer. Lean close to the printer to
hear the fan or fans operating. Look for illuminated lights on the control panel and formatter LEDs.

NOTE: Operational fans, motors, and control-panel lights indicate the following:

● AC power is present at the printer.

● The power supply is providing either or both 24 Vdc and 5 Vdc voltages.

● The DC controller microprocessor is functioning.

96 Chapter 5  Solve problems


5. If the printer powers on, but the control panel is blank, make sure that the control-panel display wire
harness or harnesses and flat flexible cable or cables (FFCs) are connected.

NOTE: The following conditions indicate that the printer has frozen while in Sleep mode or Sleep delay.
Opening a door or pressing a control-panel button should cause the printer to wake up from Sleep mode or
Sleep delay.

● The control panel home button LED is illuminated

● The power-switch LED flashes once every three to five seconds

If the control panel is not responding, or if it appears black or blank, try the following:

a. Turn the printer power off, and then on again.

b. Verify that the system is correctly functioning by printing a test page. Does the test page print
correctly?

Is the printer HP Embedded Web Server (EWS) accessible?

c. Verify that the control panel is correctly functioning. If it is not, turn the printer off and reseat the
control-panel assembly cable connections at the control-panel assembly and the formatter.

d. Try upgrading the firmware. If the firmware upgrade fails to resolve the problem, and the printer still
freezes while in Sleep mode or Sleep delay, elevate the case.

e. If the error persists and the EWS functions correctly, replace the control-panel assembly.

6. If normal start-up noises are not heard, turn the printer off, and then remove any installed accessories (for
example, envelope feeders, paper feeders, or output accessories).

7. Turn the printer on, and then listen for start-up noises. If normal start-up noises are heard, the problem
might be with an accessory.

8. Perform an engine test. The engine test procedure varies by printer, so refer to the printer Service Manual to
get instructions.

9. If the engine test page prints, the print engine is operating normally. Replace the formatter.

CAUTION: Under NO circumstances should a formatter from a different printer be installed during the
repair or troubleshooting processes. The formatter stores important data specific to the model of printer it
is installed in and is not designed to be swapped or repurposed in any way. Return a used formatter to HP.

Issues that can occur from swapping a formatter include:

● Serial number, product number, product name, page count, and supported cartridges information
change and might make a product unusable

● 33.02.01 Used board/Disk installed errors

If a used formatter is installed and causes this issue, the partner must cover the costs of the repair in the
form of a product replacement. There is no method in the field to recover a printer where a used formatter
is installed.

For more information, see the following topic (c06360930):

● HP internal link: 33.02.01 error or printer name and/or product number changes after replacing the
formatter

Troubleshooting power-on or blank control panel problems 97


● HP external partner link: 33.02.01 error or printer name and/or product number changes after
replacing the formatter

To access the HP partner link, you must first log in to the HP Partner First Portal and then connect to WISE.

NOTE: If the engine test page does not print, turn the printer off, reconnect the formatter power
connector, remove the embedded MultiMedia Card (eMMC), and then try the engine test again. If the page
prints, the problem might be the eMMC.

10. If after replacing the formatter or eMMC normal start-up noises are still not heard, replace the DC controller.

11. If the print engine appears to be correctly operating (the engine test page successfully printed) and the
control panel is still blank, replace the power supply.

Troubleshooting an unresponsive printer


If the printer powers up normally and the control panel displays correctly, but the printer appears unresponsive to
print jobs, use the following steps to troubleshoot the issue.

1. The control panel should indicate a Ready, Paused, Sleep mode on or Sleep delay on status. If an error
message displays, resolve the error. Resolve any supply issues.

2. For network connection errors, verify that the network port is active and that the cables are securely
seated.

a. Check the network cable connections between the printer and the computer or network port. Make
sure that the connections are secure.

b. Make sure that the cables are not faulty by trying different cables, if possible.

3. Check the network LEDs (callout 1) to see if they indicate any issues.

NOTE: The figure below is representational only. Network LED location varies by printer.

98 Chapter 5  Solve problems

Troubleshooting an unresponsive printer 99


LED diagnostics
The LED lights on the formatter indicate if the product is functioning correctly. Learn more about where the LEDs
are located and how to interpret them.

NOTE: This section applies to the HP LaserJet Enterprise and Managed printers in this training.

Understand LEDs on the formatter


The LEDS on the formatter indicate basic product functionality and may be used for troubleshooting.

Heartbeat LED

The heartbeat LED provides information about product operation. If a product error occurs, the formatter
displays a message on the control-panel display. However, error situations can occur causing the formatter to
control panel communication to be interrupted.

A solid red heartbeat LED light typically indicates a failure that requires replacement of the formatter.

NOTE: HP recommends fully troubleshooting the formatter and control panel before replacing either
assembly. Use the heartbeat LED to troubleshoot formatter and control panel errors to avoid unnecessarily
replacing these assemblies.

The heartbeat LED operates according to the product state. For a detailed table about the operation of the
heartbeat LED, refer to the printer's Service Troubleshooting Manual.

Connectivity LED

If the connectivity LED is solid green, it indicates that the formatter assembly is correctly plugged in and powered
up.

NOTE: If the connectivity LED is illuminated, the formatter is fully seated and the power is on. The pins for the
LED circuit in the formatter connector are recessed so that this LED will not illuminate unless the formatter is
fully seated.

HP Jetdirect LEDs

The embedded HP Jetdirect print server has two LEDs. The yellow LED indicates network activity, and the green
LED indicates the link status. A blinking yellow LED indicates network traffic. If the green LED is off, a link has
failed.

For link failures, check all the network cable connections. In addition, you can try to manually configure the link
settings on the embedded print server by using the product control-panel menus. For more information, refer to
the Service Troubleshooting Manual.

Image-quality troubleshooting
Various printer hardware problems can cause image-quality defects.

Image-quality problems are defined as:

● Print-quality (PQ) problems: PQ problems are associated with the print engine (printer base) of an MFP
printer (single function non MFP image-quality problems are always PQ defects). PQ defects appear on
pages that are printed by the print engine and not feed through an integrated scanner assembly (ISA).

● Copy-quality (CQ) problems: CQ problems are associated with the integrated-scanner assembly (ISA) portion
of an MFP printer. CQ defects appear on pages that are copied using the document feeder or flatbed glass.

For detailed information about troubleshooting specific PQ and CQ defects, see the product Service Manual or the
following topic (c06450141):

● HP internal link: Image Quality Troubleshooting Guide

● HP external partner link: Image Quality Troubleshooting Guide

NOTE: To access the HP partner link, you must first log in to the HP Partner First Portal and then connect to
WISE.

110 Chapter 5  Solve problems


For information about supported print media, see the HP LaserJet Printers - Print Media Guide.

When troubleshooting the source of some print image defects, one solution is to identify if it is a repetitive defect
(does the print quality defect appear multiple times on the printed page?). If this is the case, you can use a
ruler to measure occurrences of repetitive image defects to help solve image-quality problems. You can find a
printer-specific repetitive defects table and more information in the printer Service Manual.
