HP 4050 52.0 error code

[Frank]

I get an intermittant 52.0 error on my hp4050 other then that it works fine, nice CQ, runs clean. I cleaned some contact and blew out some switches. Does anyone have info on this code?

I don\'t see a 52.0 in the book, only a 52.1 and a 52.2? Check your code again but it sounds like a laser issue. Here\'s what the book says.

52.X PRINTER ERROR The Laser Scanner speed is incorrect.
X Description: 1 = Scanner startup error, 2 = Scanner rotation error

1. Press [Go]. The page
containing the error will
automatically be
reprinted.

2. Turn the printer off and
then on.

3. Reseat cables. See the
wiring diagrams at the
back of this manual.

4. Replace the Laser
Scanner.

Thanks, it was a 52.2, do you have a manual for this thing? is it worth replacing the laser?

Replace scanner

The 4050 is a great printer. A new scanner costs about $160.00. You can buy a color laser for less than $300. Tough choice.

I'd replace the scanner if I don't have a need for color.

You can buy a whole machine for a hundred bucks IM me.
