How to Identify and Fix Common Problems ?

A 52 error code is related to a failure of the laser scanner, the device writes the image to the drum unit in the printer before the toner is transferred to the drum.
This error indicates a RAM failure. The specific memory is internal memory not one of the dimm slots.
58.3 means you have a fan motor failure in the printer the 3 tells you it`s the fan motor number 3.
a 52 Scanner error indicates the laser/scanner which writes the image to the drum has malfunctioned. This is a hardware error and most times the actual laser/scanner assembly needs to be replaced.
If you see this error code 50.5 on an HP LaserJet 4200, 4240, 4250, 4300, or 4350 series printer, the fuser installed in the printer is registering as an incorrect fuser for that model printer.
The 51.01 and 51.1 errors are fairly common error codes on the HP LaserJet 4100, 4100N, 4100TN, and 4100DTN series printers. This error indicates a failure with the laser scanner assembly, which is a high-failure part on these models.
The error may occur when there is a communication issue between the formatter and the scanner. Turn the printer off and then back on to clear the error message. note: Performing this action will remove all custom configurations, settings, and files.
Laser printer fusers adhere toner powder to a page using a combination of heat and pressure. Error 50.5 occurs when the fuser fitted physically but the printer has specifically identified it as wrong.
THE ERROR CODE PROBLEM OF MOTOR POWER SUPPLY BOARD (SMALL DAUGHTER BOARD TOP OF THE SCANNER UNIT), Transistor no of 905,903 like .. before you change check motor is short ….or good..then fix that, it will work..
Error 0x0000011B is a common issue on Windows systems and can have various causes. Here are the most common causes and how to resolve them: Driver conflict: This happens when two drivers access the same resources at the same time. To resolve this issue, check for any conflicting drivers and update or disable them.
Recommended action. Turn the printer off, wait 15 seconds and turn the printer back on (using the power switch located on the back of the printer). The error code should not appear again.
Check for obstructions in the carriage path
Open the cartridge access door to get to the carriage inside the printer. Make sure the carriage is not obstructed by gently sliding the carriage side to side. Look for and remove any obstructions in the carriage path, such as crumpled paper or dislodged labels.
1. Paper Jams. Paper jams are a common problem for printers, resulting in time-consuming and frustrating delays. It can occur when loose sheets of paper get stuck in the rollers or feeding mechanism of the printer.
52.00 is laser error, there is nothing end user can do, the printer needs to be professionally serviced. The possible solutions are: Turn the device off, and then turn the device on. Reseat the connectors between the laser/scanner and the DCC, (DC controller), (J801 and J321).
Replace the dc controller. In most Laserjets, a 52 error means the scanner motor is rotating at the wrong speed or not at all. In the case of the 5000 and 5100, it can also mean the scanner shutter failed to open because a lever in the printer was not actuated due to a missing toner cartridge fin.
The flag located right of the pick-up roller has a fixed position. If the flag becomes stuck or broken, it will produce a 60.02 tray lift error or a “LOAD PAPER” message. If this flag is broken or if the sensor has failed, the RM2-6368 paper feed guide will need to be replaced.
If you are seeing the 41.3 error on a LaserJet 4, 4Plus, or 5 series printer, and you find a blank sheet of paper in the path, your printer is probably having a failure with the solenoid on the paper feed assembly. This is becoming a common issue as these printers get older.
This is a main motor startup error. In other words when the motor is supposed to turn it can not and gives the error. I have seen this with other printers and sometimes it is not the motor that is the issue.
If your printer`s status displays “Printer in error state,” there may be a problem with the printer itself. Make sure the printer is turned on and connected to your PC by Wi-Fi or cable. Check it for low paper or ink, and be sure the cover isn`t open and the paper isn`t jammed.
57.02 Fan Error The product has experienced a problem with its internal fan.
The 59.05 errors are related to main motor and toner cartridge. In many cases the drum unit in the cartridge does not rotate and replacing the defective cartridge will resolve the error.
Description: This error is primarily caused by a transfer alienation failure in which the ITB is stuck and unable to rotate, the SR9 sensor (the primary transfer roller disengagement sensor) has gone bad or the fuser drive assembly has failed.
59.70 is a black developer motor failure. If unit is still under warranty contact tech support and get it repaired. If unit is out of warranty you will need a developer motor RM2–7344–000CN.
23 or 30.03. 45 Scanner Errors. The resolution for either error is to, if preferred to send a firmware update, then replace the flatbed scanner assembly. It has been found that it is in most cases the internal lamp that has failed, but is not available through HP as a replaceable part.

HP Laserjet 4100 Error (13.1)
ANSWER : I am pretty late to the party for this discussion but I am incredibly thankful to the person that posted this “fix” that I can barely imagine it. My 4100 had developed the dreaded paper jam described above and I had no idea what was causing it. I replaced a number of rollers only to have the same problem re-occur with no solution in sight.

Error Code 51.1 says Printer Error No Kidding.lol
ANSWER : Sometimes turning off and on will allow you to print a few pages. The error is a beam detect error. The only real fix is to replace the laser scanner unit. Could be a loose connector on the scanner or DC controller from the scanner. That’s unlikely. You could try the only other free fix which is to open the scanner assy. and clean all the mirrors inside. The dust could obstruct the laser beam enough to cause the detect error.

Error Message 4F on MFC 210C
ANSWER : Basically this kind of error caused by loss of voltage on print head. If this is the case then I suggest to buy a new printer rather than replace print head. Print head might be too costly.

Error Code 52.1M
ANSWER : Magenta laser error. The spinning motor bearings cause the squeal and that slows it down causing the error. You could try opening it and lubricating the motor shift with a drop of synthetic lubricant. Do not use more than a drop.
