LIGHT PRINTING LJ 3015

[Techconnect]

Tried new print cartridge, half page test was not transfer process ...
looking at the laser to clean the laser path but cant find it in the machine!
The SM is not a lot of help in that area...

very light printing of internal sheets,... printing docs seams to be a little darker..

This machine is the fax Not the printer LJP 3015...

Have you checked the default contrast setting? See pg 26:

If I understand correctly, the image fault only occurs with the fax function. That would indicate that the problem is primarily with the machine sending the faxes to the machine you are working on, although that machine's formatter might be causing that too.
Grr, stupid 1980's tech. Why won't it die?

If I read the initial post correctly you had light print and replacing the toner has the same results. You tried a half page test and the toner was not transferring properly. If you are printing on a plain 20 lb paper I would replace the transfer roller Mfr Part #: HP RM1-6321-000CN

in that case, I have never had to get to the laser/scanner on this unit but the limited information in the service manual gives me a part number (RM1-0171-000CN) but no R&R information. From what I can tell the LS is under the cover for the output tray. Good luck

Re: LIGHT PRINTING LJ 3015

*** UPDATE**** My parts guy ordered the engine board and the laser and of course it was for the "P" 3015 printer
