4 Theory of operation
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.
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 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
Formatter-control system
Learn about how the formatter operates.
● 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
● 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.
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 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.
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.
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.

Error codes
Error codes and control-panel messages display on the printer control panel to indicate the current printer status
or situations that might require action. Error codes are numerical, or alphanumerical, and have a set structure
with six characters (example: 13.WX.YZ).
● The first two characters are numeric and represent the system component that is causing the error. For
example, in error code 10.22.15, 10 = Supplies for HP LaserJets.
● The remaining four characters (W, X, Y, and Z values) further define the error.
HP LaserJet and HP PageWide error codes are documented in the control panel message document (CPMD) for
each printer.
The CPMD is a comprehensive list of error codes, diagnostic and troubleshooting steps to clear or resolve the
error, and other helpful information such as service mode pins and part numbers.
The CPMD is continually updated and republished with the latest information for the following error codes.
41.WX.YZ Fuser, Laser scanner, or Paper path Miscellaneous error including general and
misprint or mismatch errors typically
involving (but not limited to) the fuser, the
laser scanner, or the paper path.
61.WX.YZ Engine (PageWide) Print engine error with the 8–bit data
package.
81.WX.YZ Near Field Communication (NFC) Wireless, Bluetooth or internal EIO error.

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:
● The power supply is providing either or both 24 Vdc and 5 Vdc voltages.
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.
If the control panel is not responding, or if it appears black or blank, try the following:
b. Verify that the system is correctly functioning by printing a test page. Does the test page print
correctly?
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.
● Serial number, product number, product name, page count, and supported cartridges information
change and might make a product unusable
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.
● HP internal 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.
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.
4. Use one of the following options to print a configuration page. If the printer is connected to a network, an
HP Jetdirect page also prints.

5. Check to see if there is a newer version of the firmware available. If there is, update the firmware.
6. Verify that the correct print driver for this printer is installed. Check the program to make sure that the print
driver for this printer is used. The print driver can be downloaded from support.hp.com.
7. Print a short document from a different program that has worked in the past. If this solution works, the
problem is with the program. If this solution does not work (the document does not print), complete these
steps:
a. Try printing the job from another computer that has the printer software installed.
b. If the printer is connected to the network, connect the printer directly to a host computer with a USB
cable. Redirect the printer to the correct port, or reinstall the software (make sure to select the new
connection type).
NOTE: The host USB port may disabled from the factory. If so, this port needs to be activated first
before connecting the printer to the USB port.
For more information about troubleshooting an unresponsive printer and about troubleshooting connectivity
issues, see the "Performance and connectivity troubleshooting" section of the Service manual.
NOTE: This section applies to the HP LaserJet Enterprise and Managed printers in this training.
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.

2. Use a paper clip or very small screwdriver to press the engine test-page button.
● The test page prints from the last tray that the product used to print, unless the product has been
turned off and then turned on again since the most recent print job.
● If the product has been turned off and then on again since the most recent print job, then the page will
print from Tray 2.
● The product continuously prints test pages as long as the test-page switch is depressed.
NOTE: A damaged formatter might interfere with the engine test. If the engine test page does not print,
try removing the formatter, and then perform the engine test again. If the engine test is then successful, the
problem is in the formatter, the control panel, or the cable that connects them together.

Image-quality troubleshooting
Various printer hardware problems can cause image-quality defects.
● 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):
NOTE: To access the HP partner link, you must first log in to the HP Partner First Portal and then connect to
WISE.
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.
Software troubleshooting
Learn about the printer drivers and resources for software troubleshooting.
● Make sure the printer is using the correct type of driver. Go to How to Select the Correct Printer Driver.

Electrostatic discharge
Learn how to protect sensitive parts against damage from electrostatic discharge.
CAUTION: Some parts are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Look for the ESD reminder when
removing printer parts. Always perform service work at an ESD-protected workstation or mat. If an ESD
workstation or mat is not available, touch the sheet-metal chassis to provide a static ground before touching an
ESD-sensitive assembly.
Protect the ESD-sensitive assemblies by placing them in ESD pouches when they are out of the printer.
Required tools
The following are the tools required to remove and replace parts on the printer.
● #2 Phillips screwdriver with a magnetic tip and a 152 mm (6 in) shaft length
Service 113
● Socket screwdriver with 5.5 mm (.216 in) shaft length
● Needle-nose pliers
TIP: If an ESD mat or strap is not available, always touch the sheet metal chassis to create a ground
before touching PCAs or other ESD sensitive assemblies.
● Penlight
WARNING! Make sure that assemblies are replaced with the correct screw type. Using the incorrect screw (for
example, substituting a long screw for the correct shorter screw) can cause damage to the printer or interfere
with printer operation. Do not intermix screws that are removed from one assembly with the screws that are
removed from another assembly.
NOTE: To install a self-tapping screw, first turn it counterclockwise to align it with the existing thread pattern,
and then carefully turn it clockwise to tighten. Do not overtighten. If a self-tapping screw hole becomes
stripped, repair the screw hole or replace the affected assembly.
Always take note of the length, diameter, color, type, and location of each removed screw. Make sure that
screws are installed in the original location they were removed from during reinstallation.
Service approach
Follow these steps before and after performing service on the printer to prevent damage to the printer and
ensure that the repair was successful.
WARNING! Turn the printer off, wait five seconds, and then remove the power cord before attempting to
service the printer. If this warning is not followed, severe injury can result as well as damage to the printer. The
power must be on for certain functional checks during troubleshooting. However, the power cord must be
disconnected during parts removal. AC voltage is still present inside the printer when the power switch is in the
off position. The power cord must be disconnected before servicing the printer.
● Place the product on an ESD workstation or mat, or use an ESD strap (if one is available). If an ESD
workstation, mat or strap is not available, ground yourself by touching the sheet-metal chassis before
touching an ESD-sensitive part.
● Remove the supplies (optional). If the cartridges are removed, install the cartridge cap.
Post-service test
Perform the following tests to verify that the repair or replacement was successful, and to ensure that the print
quality is acceptable after performing printer repairs.
