Also one thing to note on the fusers that have a film and grease that have issues with smears or bad stripes down them even after a new sleeve - heating element. Some like the 4200 series have a dual...

Well here's an example of my in-field film/sleeve replacements...I replaced one in a 4100 today, edges worn through the grey layer into the beige. Crap film? Nope it has 325k pages since I rebuilt it...

Until part is wrong. Oh well that one is gone and we both have the new one.

Well here's a weird twist - I just got the new manual that includes the 3200's and it seems the original manual I had was wrong in having me look at the media motor. I got the unit today, it's now...

Well the owner decided since if we found a media drive motor it would be expensive and they have a lot of use on the machine they decided to replace it, this time with an Epson due to the way HP is...

Still in the factory cardboard with foam wrapping, I ordered the wrong lamp and it wasn't returnable. I paid $60 for it, Precision Roller sells it retail at $139. I imagine PR is way out of pricing...

For two printers I bought in a surplus lot, I'd like to get one of them repaired for the other aspects of the business. I've seen pay sites with the manual in PDF so there should be one out there. I...

Need a Q5669-60704 media advance drive assy (drives the feed platen and take up roller under the starwheel/bail) as HP decided they don't want to sell it anymore and we have a Z2100 44" that won't...

Been hitting here on and off a few years, no time to be regular on it (yet).

Here's someone that actually knows what a PITA this problem is and that firmware on a lockup just won't do it - he was the one that I was able to send a spare ISS to for reload with the proper model...

If the buyer needs an ISS with the correct model loaded I have one.

Really? How long have you been doing these (not that long if you still use the term dude- just kidding). You do realize that some machines are burned on chip right? Have you come across a hung/locked...

You must be talking to becandcall - no way firmware was getting updated on mine without the model being properly set and until EEROM was cleared the machine was locked up in the startup. Only way to...

I've now had 4 of these with the run on problem, all have been firmware only. Had one come back with a 50.9, replaced the heater strip and it's working fine. All others have been happy since the FW...

Since the resale value of the plotter and scanner combo is so high and there is a chance of the EEROM being screwed up it might just be easier and more reliable to get a new one. Besides you can...

Yep 73 was the tornados that started near my parent's place near Hardinsburg and rolled along the Ohio through Brandenburg, Louisville, etc all the way up to Zenia Oh. I helped clean up a lot of...

I have yet to see one with those. Yep it screws with your head. Remember the manual covers both 500 and 800 model plotters so there may be some differences. You can clean the service station and try...

I'm further west in KY about 40 west of Ft Knox. I assumed you were servicing plotters and were familiar with the nomenclature. The ISS or ink supply station, is in the right side cover and the ink...

Clearing eerom is where my problem ended with initializing, then started by not being able to set the model. I guess if it gets corrupt it hangs and will sit for days initializing and never change....

SOLVED thanks to Fred, aka Duct Tape and Glue. He gladly allowed me to send him an ISS and got me back a loaded one that I installed tonight. When the EEROM error message came up asking which was...

Not looking for ink cartridges, I do my own refills and have refillable auto reset ones for the DSJ 800PS ready to be ordered. Mainly looking for supplies like papers. I service my own and other...

Looking in advance for good sources people out there are using or have used for supplies for Designjet (and other brand) plotters. I should have a working 42" Designjet 800PS soon and while I know of...

Loaded ISS is on it's way back to me from Conn, should be here middle of next week so I'm crossing my fingers that this does the trick. I will post the end result.

Partsmart and Liberty Parts Team are my two main sources of rebuild products, although the fuser grease from Partsmart leaves a lot to be desired, seems like a cheap knock off of the Uniflor that is...

Why would you need to do this in shop? I've been rebuilding fuser assemblies for going on 7 or 8 yrs now (for my own customers only) and many are done onsite unless the printer is dropped off (or I...
