    What to use for service station lube?

    I'm reassembling a T1100 service station. What do you guys use for grease on the slides and gears? Any recommendations? Does HP have a special lube that's available? Or can I just use a white...

    Re: Designjet 4500 HD Scanner

    If that's the one you linked to earlier, I think I'll go ahead and buy one. The one I bought is too long but I made it work ok. I had to relocate the exhaust fan that's mounted on the back of the...

    Re: Designjet 4500 HD Scanner

    Was the 180W enough to handle the power needs? The original calls for a 250w.

    Thanks for that link. The one I bought is too long but I got it to work and it told me what the problem was. But...

    Re: Designjet 4500 HD Scanner

    Put in the new power supply and that solved it. Booted right up to the HP Invent splash screen, then went on to the scanner program layout. I guess the Geek Squad wasn't correct on this one.

    Re: Designjet 4500 HD Scanner

    As said in first post, I removed the HD and hooked it up to my laptop w/an ESATA cable and it spun up fine and was able to open the files so I don't think the HD is an issue. I have the original DVD...

    Re: Designjet 4500 HD Scanner

    Thanks Kiran. I'll give that a try next. I have some new ram coming so if reseating doesn't do it I'll try that next.

    I also replaced the CMOS battery, just to be sure that wasn't a problem. ...

    Re: Hp DesignJet 5500 cautionary tale

    I know this is four years too late for the OP but the trick I use to replace those plenums is to use a hair dryer to soften the tube material. Slips right off. Then repeat to slip the tubes back...
  11. Re: Z5400 bad vertical lines--broken and offset

    Got it solved.

    Part of the error message when testing the line sensor (which failed) said something about "the flag not reset" but I don't know what that meant. So I started over with the...
  12. Z5400 bad vertical lines--broken and offset

    I've just run into this problem with lines being offset on my Z5400 that I'm trying to repair.

    I recently oiled the rear carriage rod and thought maybe I got some oil on the encoder strip. Cleaned...

    Ok, this one really had me stumped but I guess I finally figured it out. Sometimes it's the simplest answer.

    Yes, I suspected the same thing. I took off the sensor and wiped the lense off. It was pretty clean already. No change. I did the line sensor test by manually loading paper onto the platen so the...

    New formatter and HD solved it. So I'm going to swap in the original PCA interconnect board and make sure that works ok.

    Now that I have the display back I can see what else needs to be done. ...
