1st. Make sure the printer is plugged directly into the outlet not a surge protector. Try a different outlet. To me, this looks like a Firmware/Formatter issue. Make sure you update the firmware. Then I would try a formatter if the other doesn't fix your problem.

It is plugged directly in the outlet. It's in a production environment, and they do have power issues at times. It's a DVD production and packing facility with lots of automated equipment. In fact, one of the production engineers was telling me how some of his equipment was doing crazy things. It's a very small office and I'll see if there is another outlet in there. Is there a way to flash the firmware or is that something I need to order. I know with our copiers I can go to our site and download our firmware. I don't have a service manual for this machine so if you have part numbers for both I would appreciate it. Thanks again and I'll keep you informed on what I find out.

The newer HP printers are very power sensitive, so this could definitely have something to do with it.

Yes, you can go to HP® - Laptops, Desktops, Printers, Servers and more and download the firmware upgrade. Make sure you get the right one, and read the read me file and follow it exactly or you'll have problems. I think firmware is embedded on that machine, but I could be wrong. CC399-67901 is the part number for the formatter.

Thanks again and I'll post what I find.

I had an HP color, differe3nt model doing something similar. They told me to replace the HV also to no avail. It ended up being the txfer belt assy. Don't know why, but that took care of it.

Interesting. I'll give that a closer look.

Well I updated the firmware and also replaced the formatter and that seemed to take care of the problem. I went ahead and got a transfer belt just in case. So far so good! Thanks again guys!
