When tray 1 is empty, the printer prints fine. If paper is added to tray 1, the printer jams and states the jam is in tray 2.
Tray 1 feed solenoid does not actuate nor does tray 2 feed solenoid when it jams.
Troubleshoot Tray 1 input sensor;
a.) Loaded paper in tray 1.
b.) Jams in Tray2.
My thought; If tray 1 input sensor was bad it would feed fine from tray 2 because it would not be recognizing it.
Troubleshoot Tray 1 feed solenoid;
Using 2ndry Service menu to show solenoid does actuate and yes it does…
HP had me change tray1 feed solenoid and of course that did not repair problem.
Open the 2ndry Service menu by pressing the Left Arrow button and the Cancel button
simultaneously.
b. Use the arrow buttons to select Pick roller, and then press the OK button.
Press the OK button again to confirm that you want the roller to rotate.
c. Listen for the roller to rotate. When the roller is done rotating, unplug the power cord, and
then place the power button in the off position.
It took me a better part of a day to change the Solenoid because you have to remove the power supply…Guess what? Removal instructions are not in Service guide.
Hp told me this is an unknown issue. One week later I had another completely different printer do the same thing. Fine their sending me a replacement, I would like to know what the issue is. I have a good idea but wanted to bounce this of you guys first. Any help is appreciated.
