The hp laserjet p1505 printer does not print. The magnetic shaft is badly worn

I came from vacation to work, I go into our cozy office, I see there are two boxes of printers (“HP LaserJet P1505 ″ flaunts on the boxes). The printers themselves were already plugged in and were spitting out pages with might and main.

Those who have typed say that the printer “does not like it”, it is slow, it takes a long time to swing before the next task ...

And such a thing happened here: you send it to it - it does not print, you press the "green" button - the statistics page comes out. After that, he flatly refuses to print either through Windows (windows xp is installed), or through a button. Reinstalling the driver from the native disk gave nothing.

Well, I think, tomorrow we'll take it under warranty ... Tomorrow came the second printer of the same type with the same symptoms. There was nothing to postpone, besides, there were not many “living” printers left.

And then, as they say - SUDDENLY, from reliable sources I find out how the test page is now printed in the latest HP models, specifically in this one - P1505: you need open and close the lid six times(it's like climbing behind a cartridge). I wonder why not 10 times?

If your printer is configured to print over the network, and on the computer to which it is connected, Windows is not installed on the server version, and with all this there are problems with printing, then I strongly recommend that you read the article:

After tricky movements of the cover, a test page and a driver ( be sure not to forget to update the driver, the new version fixes serious bugs) got up like a native, printing became available from everywhere (locally and over the network).

Such water is nonsense with a lid and pushed me to the post. Perhaps I don’t understand something, I didn’t read manuals on the printer, because I thought what was so complicated and abstruse there. But it turned out to be the opposite. So it goes.

Outcome:

  • If you were interested in a question about a test page: it is printed after you have opened and closed the printer cover SIX times.
  • If there are problems with printing: First things first !!! Update the driver (the version is currently dated September 2009).
  • If there are problems with printing over the network: I recommend reading the Limited number of concurrent sessions in Windows.

Reinsert into the device.

Clearing jams

The printer sometimes experiences media jams during printing. If a jam occurs, the corresponding lights on the control panel light up.

When loading new media, remove any old media from the tray and straighten the stack. Doing so will prevent the product from picking up more than one sheet at a time and will reduce the likelihood of jams.

Using inappropriate media.

The device may need to be cleaned to remove paper dust and other particles from the paper path.

After a jam, there may be toner residues in the product. Typically, toner marks disappear after printing a few pages.

Typical Media Jam Locations

Feeding tray. If a sheet is jammed in the input tray, you can try to remove it carefully. However, try not to tear the sheet. If you feel resistance when trying to remove a sheet, see Removing a jammed sheet.

Output path. If a sheet is jammed in the output bin, see Removing the jammed sheet.

After a jam, there may be toner residues in the product. Typically, toner marks disappear after printing a few sheets.

Removing a jammed sheet

Media jams can result in loose toner on the pages. If toner gets on your clothing, wash it off with cold water. Hot water will set the toner stains on the fabric.

Clearing a jam

1. Open the access door and remove it from the device.


To avoid damage, try to keep it less exposed to light.

2. With both hands, grasp the side of the media that is most visible (or the middle), and gently pull it out of the device.

3. Replace and close the access door.


When loading new media, remove any old media from the input tray and straighten the stack.

Improving print quality

Light or faded print

The service life is nearing the end.

If the print density is too light, or EconoMode is enabled, the entire page is printed too lightly. Adjust the print intensity and turn off EconoMode in the printer driver.

Particles of toner

The media might not meet Hewlett-Packard specifications (for example, the media is too moist or too rough).

The device may need to be cleaned.

Unprinted areas

Defects in individual sheets may be the cause. Try to print the job again.

Uneven moisture content or damp spots on the surface of the media. Try printing your document on new media.

Defective paper batch. Certain manufacturing techniques may interfere with toner from adhering to certain areas of the sheet. Try a different type or brand of media.

There may be a defect.

Vertical lines

The photosensitive drum may be scratched.

Gray background

Make sure the Tray 1 Cover is in place.

Decrease the print density setting using the Embedded Web Server. Reducing the print density helps eliminate gray backgrounds.

Change the media to a lighter weight one.

Check the microclimate in the place where the device is installed. The gray background can be caused by very low air humidity.

Toner smear

If toner smudges at the leading edge of the media sheet, the media guides may be dirty. Wipe the guides with a dry, lint-free cloth.

Try installing a new one.

The defect can be caused by too low temperature of the thermocouple.

Loose toner

Clean the inside of the device.

Check the type and quality of the substrate.

Make sure that is selected in the printer driver. suitable type print media.

Plug the power cord of the product directly into an electrical outlet, not through a surge protector.

Vertical repetitive defects.

If defects are repeated in the same place on the page, install a new cartridge.

This may be due to toner contamination of the inside of the printer. Defects appearing on back side the pages will most likely disappear by themselves after printing a few pages.

Make sure the correct media type is selected in the printer driver.

Distortion of the shape of characters

If character distortion also results in gaps in the image, the surface of the media may be too smooth. Try using a different print media.

If a wavy effect occurs when the shape is distorted, the product may need service. Print a configuration page. If the characters are garbled, contact an authorized dealer or company service representative.

Skewed image on the page

Check that the media is loaded correctly in the tray, and check the guides so that they are not tightly gripping the media or installed without excessive clearance.

The skew may be caused by loading too much media into the input tray.

Check the type and quality of the substrate.

Twisting or waves

Check the type and quality of the substrate. Curling can be caused by both high temperature and high humidity.

The media has been in the tray for too long without moving. Turn the stack over in the tray. You can also try rotating the media 180 ° in the input tray.

The defect may be caused by too high fuser temperature. Make sure the correct media type is selected in the printer driver. If the problem persists, you should select a media type that uses a lower fuser temperature, such as transparencies or lighter weight media.

Creases or wrinkles

Check that the media is loaded correctly in the tray.

Check the type and quality of the substrate.

Turn over the stack of media in the tray. You can also try rotating the media 180 ° in the input tray.

When printing on envelopes, this may be due to trapped air inside the envelope. Remove the envelope, flatten it, and try printing again.

Toner marks around outlines

The presence of a large number of toner particles around the outer edge of the letters indicates that the toner does not adhere well to the substrate. However, small amounts of toner particles are normal when printing with laser printers. Try a different type of media.

Turn over the stack of media in the tray.

Use media designed for laser printers.

Resolving media problems

The problems below can cause poor print quality, media jams, or damage to the product.

Poor print quality or insufficient toner adhesion.

The paper is too moist, rough, thick, smooth, embossed, or defective.

Printouts are missing, wrinkled, or curled.

The paper was not stored correctly.

Store paper on a flat, horizontal surface in a moisture-proof wrap.

The sides of the paper are different from each other.

Flip the paper over.

Excessive twisting.

The moisture content of the paper is too high, the grain is not oriented properly, or the structure is short.

The sides of the paper are different.

Flip the paper over.

Major malfunctions of laser printers

The HP LaserJet P1505n laser printers have a variety of settings that control the printing process. Often they get confused and you just need to correct them so that the printer continues to work in the same mode. However, there are other failures, which can generally be divided into two groups: cartridge failure (70%) and printer failure (30%).

The image drum is damaged

You can talk about this malfunction if you see thin lines or large gray spots at regular intervals on the printed sheet. Repair will not help in this case. You will have to replace the drum unit (or the entire cartridge).

The mining bin is full

If large spots or streaks appear on the sheet from time to time, you can try to clean the processing hopper, because Overfilling causes the toner to spill unevenly onto the paper.

HP LaserJet P1505n printer jams paper

Usually caused by problems with the feed roll, due to a malfunction or excessive dirt, as well as damage to the bar that guides the sheets or the entire roller unit. When sheets are jammed when leaving the device, we can talk about breakage or skewing of the rollers located in the paper delivery unit, as well as the bar that guides the sheets when they are dispensed by the printer.

Some of the toner (ink) remains on the fingers

The image does not adhere well to the paper. The factor provoking the malfunction is a malfunction of the thermoelement. Also, the reason may be incorrectly selected thermal film for the device (not suitable thickness).

HP LaserJet P1505n printer does not turn on

The main reasons are damaged input circuits of the printer or there is no voltage in the network. Sometimes a zero response is caused by a faulty board, which is responsible for the formation of impulse currents inside the device and their subsequent distribution among the driving mechanisms. Then the solution will be to replace the board.

Clogged squeegee (cleaning blade)

Result - a gray line appears along the printed sheet. To fix the breakage, the squeegee must be cleaned or replaced if there is no positive result.

HP LaserJet P1505n printer does not print

This may be due to breakdowns of internal mechanisms, as well as possible errors in the software. laser printer HP LaserJet P1505n. If the internal trouble indicator does not indicate possible problem, then most likely there was a failure in the driver system or the board responsible for forming a good image.

The magnetic shaft is badly worn

As a result, spots of white or dark shades appear on the sheets and print failure (pronounced irregularity of the text). This malfunction can be eliminated only by replacing the shaft.

HP LaserJet P1505n printer does not pick up paper

The main reason is that the paper tray is damaged in some way. A crack in the reversing gear housing breaks the contact between the paper feed mechanism and the spring. An option for removing the breakage can be a complete replacement of the tray or the elimination of the crack. The paper feed rollers could also be worn out. Their cleaning with a special restoring liquid will help.

The pre-charge shaft is out of order

There are two possible reasons:
  1. Charge wear if, when printing on a sheet, a gray background with large gray spots randomly located on it is visible. Only shaft replacement will help.
  2. Contamination of the shaft, if the information is duplicated on the sheet or not all of its part is printed. In this case, the shaft cover can be cleaned. If this does not help, you will have to replace the part.

Paper stops inside the laser printer

The main reason is that the paper exit sensor is faulty, which is caused by its typical clogging or curtain failure. You need to clean the sensor and adjust the shutter.
