Configure trays
Tray configuration is essential for making the best use of the product.
Use the following guidelines:
For each tray, load only the supported media sizes and types. Loading unsupported
media can cause paper jams and other issues.
When loading media, close the paper guides so that they are flush against the
media stack. The paper guides help the product to identify the media size
correctly.
On the product control panel, verify that the tray configurations are correct. Make
sure that the media size and type selected for each tray match the size and type
of media actually loaded in the trays.
Tray configuration on the control panel typically occurs during initial setup, but you
might want to verify that the configuration settings are correct if printing issues
occur.
When you print, remember to select the correct tray settings for the intended print
job in the printer software. For example, select the correct media type for the tray
you are printing to.
Configure trays using the EWS
You can also use the HP Embedded Web Server (EWS) to manage tray settings for the
printer. In addition to managing the paper size and type settings for specific trays, you can
also manage general tray settings for features such as Alternative Letterhead Mode,
duplexing, and prompts.
For more information, see HP LaserJet Enterprise, HP PageWide Enterprise - Configure
the Manage Trays settings.
Ordering
Contact the managed service representative. Make sure to have the product model
number, which appears on the product label on the back of the printer.

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

Laser Scanning Unit (LSU) overview for the color E78625, E78630, E78635
products
The Laser Scanning Unit (LSU) constructs a latent image by removing electric charges
by a laser on the surface of the drum.
The LSU temperature sensor detects the inside temperature of the LSU. In case of
detecting temperature change inside the LSU, Color Plain Registration (CPR) will be
performed. The LSU Laser Diode (LD) power makes a laser, driving the LSU motor to
expose the laser on the drum as a line. The LSU skew adjustment motor operates when
the CPR is activated and enables cyan, magenta, and yellow color parallelly aligned by
black color. The LSU cover is closed to protect the LSU window from toner
contamination, and when the printing job starts, the LSU shutter motor operates to open
the LSU cover. The LSU shutter sensor checks the operation of the LSU cover.
NOTE:
When the LSU is replaced or re-installed, CPR reference adjustment in
ServiceTools is recommended.

Developer and drum unit overview for the color E78625, E78630,
E78635 products
The developer unit receives toner from the reservoir unit and creates images using the
toner with the drum unit.
The toner concentration sensor determines whether the toner in the developer unit is
insufficient. In this case, the developer unit receives the toner from the reservoir unit. The
newly supplied toner is evenly mixed with the existing toner by the mixing auger. At this
time, the developer unit's roller and auger are driven by the developer motor. The end of
the developer unit is connected to the waste toner duct, the wasted toner after developing
process are thrown away to the waste toner duct.
The drum unit receives toner from the developer unit and develops the image. Most of the
developed toner is moved to the transfer unit to combine the yellow, magenta, cyan, and
black colors and prints out on a paper. Remaining toners that are not relocated to the
transfer unit are separated from the drum by the cleaning blade and moved to the waste
toner duct.
The drum unit is driven by the drum motor, and the black drum motor drives not only the
black drum unit but also the ITB at the same time. As for the rotation of the drum motor, the
drum home sensor checks whether the drum motor rotates.
NOTE:
When replacing drum or drum motor, running “Full Auto Color Registration” in
Service Tools is recommended.

Image Transfer Belt (ITB) overview for the color E78625, E78630, E78635
products
The Image Transfer Belt(ITB) combines the four-color toners to transfer the toner onto the
paper.
Each color toner image on the four drums is transferred to the ITB by the first transfer roller
inside the ITB unit.
The image overlapped by four colors is transferred to the paper by the transfer 2 roller. The
remaining toners are removed by the cleaning blade and transferred to the toner collection
unit. This process is completed with one rotation of the ITB.
The ITB engage motor attaches and detaches the yellow, magenta, cyan and black transfer
rollers from drum unit. At the same time, the ITB engage sensor detects whether the ITB is
engaged. This movement will save color toner and color drum lifespan. The ITB engage
sensor checks the position of the color transfer rollers.

Color Plane Registration (CPR) unit overview for the color E78625, E78630,
E78635 products
The Color Plane Registration (CPR) unit is the part that superposes four colors such as
cyan, magenta, yellow and black to express images correctly, and also keeps image
density at a proper level.
The CPR unit is located below the ITB and reads yellow, magenta, cyan and black toner
level. There is a shutter to prevent foreign debris from contaminating the CPR sensor.
When operating the CPR feature, the CPR shutter opens with the CPR shutter sensor and
the CPR shutter motor. Three CPR sensors are installed at the left, center, and the right
side of the CPR unit which detects the registration condition to adjust printing positions
correctly.
NOTE:
Color Plane Registration (CPR) is interchangeably used with Auto Color
Registration (ACR). These are synonymous for related parts or terms.
In case of poor color plane registration, “White gap” or “Fuzzy or blurred image” prints out.

much the shift motor is operating. After the tray shifting process, the shift
tray moves back to the original position and the shift gate solenoid turns
back to the initial location.

Document feeder / scanner
The standard operation of the document feeder consists of the standby (paper loading)
mode, pick, feed, and lift steps.
The following document feeders/scanner units are available for the printers covered in this
course:
dn bundles: 200-sheet ADF with a scan speed (simplex/duplex) of 90/180
ipm
z bundles: 200-sheet ADF with a scan speed (simplex/duplex) of 120/240
ipm
NOTE:
There is also a 120 ipm 100-sheet DADF scanner (5QK34-67001) available for
the flex-build models.
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

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:
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.
o The control panel home button LED is illuminated
o 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:
c. Turn the printer power off, and then on again.
d. 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?
e. 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.
f. 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.
g. 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:
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.
NOTE:

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:
NOTE:
To avoid jams, make sure the guides in the document-feeder input tray are
adjusted against the document, without bending the document. To copy narrow
documents, use the flatbed scanner. Remove all staples and paper clips from
original documents.
NOTE:
Original documents that are printed on heavy, glossy paper can jam more
frequently than originals that are printed on plain paper.
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.
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.
