General cautions during removal and replacement
This chapter describes the removal and replacement of field-replaceable units (FRUs) only.
Replacing FRUs is generally the reverse of removal. Occasionally, notes and tips are included to
provide directions for difficult or critical replacement procedures.
not
HP does
WARNING! Turn the product off, wait 5 seconds, and then remove the power cable before
attempting to service the product. If this warning is not followed, severe injury can result, in addition to
damage to the product. The power must be on for certain functional checks during troubleshooting.
However, disconnect the power supply during parts removal.
Never operate or service the product with the protective cover removed from the laser scanner
assembly. The reflected beam, although invisible, can damage your eyes.
The sheet-metal parts can have sharp edges. Be careful when handling sheet-metal parts.
CAUTION: Do not bend or fold the flat flexible cables (FFCs) during removal or installation. Also, do
not straighten prefolds in the FFCs. You
an FFC into a connector can cause a short circuit in a PCA.

must
fully seat all FFCs in their connectors. Failure to fully seat
Incorrectly routed or loose wire harnesses can interfere with other internal components and can become
damaged or broken. Frayed or pinched harness wires can be difficult to find. When replacing wire
harnesses, always use the provided wire loops, lance points, or wire-harness guides and retainers.
NOTE: To install a self-tapping screw, first turn it counterclockwise to align it with the thread pattern,
and then carefully turn it clockwise to tighten. Do not overtighten. If a self-tapping screw-hole becomes
stripped, repair the screw-hole or replace the affected assembly.
Note the length, diameter, color, type, and location of each screw. Be sure to return each screw to its
original location during reassembly.
TIP: For clarity, some photos in this chapter might show components removed that would not be
removed to service the product. If necessary, remove the components listed at the beginning of a
procedure before proceeding to service the product.
Electrostatic discharge
CAUTION: Some parts are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Look for the ESD reminder
when removing product parts. Always perform service work at an ESD-protected workstation or mat, or
use an ESD strap. If an ESD workstation, mat, or strap is not available, ground yourself by touching the
sheet-metal chassis
Protect the ESD-sensitive parts by placing them in ESD pouches when they are out of the product.

Service approach
Product repair normally begins by using the product internal diagnostics and the following two-step
process:
1. Isolate the problem to the major system (for example, the network or server, or the product).
2. Troubleshoot the problem by using the procedures in the solve problems chapter.
After you find a faulty part, the product can usually be repaired at the assembly level by replacing fieldreplaceable units (FRUs). Some mechanical assemblies might need to be repaired at the subassembly
level.
Before performing service
Remove all paper from the product.
●
Turn off the power using the power switch.
●
Disconnect the power cable and interface cable or cables.
●
Place the product on an ESD workstation or mat, or use an ESD strap (if one is available). If an
●
ESD workstation, mat, or strap is not available, ground yourself by touching the sheet-metal
before

Remove the tray or trays. See
●
After performing service
Connect the power cable.
●
Reinstall the toner cartridges.
●
Reinstall the tray or trays.
●
If an optional paper feeder was installed, place the product on the feeder.
●
Post-service test
Perform the following test to verify that the repair or replacement was successful.
Print-quality test
1. Verify that you have completed the necessary reassembly steps.
2. Make sure that the tray contains clean, unmarked paper.

3. Attach the power cable and interface cable or interface cables, and then turn on the product.
4. Verify that the expected start-up sounds occur. The fans start.

5. Print a configuration page, and then verify that the expected printing sounds occur. The fans start
and the rollers turn.
6. Print a demo page, and then verify that the print quality is as expected.
7. Send a print job from the host computer, and then verify that the output meets expectations.
8. If necessary, restore any customer-specified settings.
9. Clean the outside of the product with a damp cloth.
