REMANUFACTURING THE HP LASERJET P2035 • 2055 TONER CARTRIDGE

By Mike Josiah

Figures above show the different physical sizes of the two cartridges. The cartridges are similar in design to the 1160/1320 car­tridges, but are not interchangeable.

The drum drive gear is a completely new system. The actual
drive gear is a floating type that uses a ball and socket config­uration (as shown here).

There are also no screws used at all to hold the cartridge
together. All the end caps and bushings are held in place by
plastic welds. This sounds worse than it is though, it’s a little
harder to take apart than a 1320, but not that bad.

The pin system holding the two halves of the cartridge togeth­er is similar to the HP-1160/1320. You will need to cut two
small holes cut in the top to get access to the pins. The pin
access-hole location on these cartridges is almost identical
and the same methods you use for the 1320 should work
here.

The printers released in this series so far are as follows:
P2035
P2035n
P2055d
P2055dn
P2055x

Cartridge troubleshooting as well as running test pages, clean­ing pages and some simple printer troubleshooting will be cov­ered at the end of this article.

First introduced in November 2008, the HP-P2035/2055 series of laser printers is based on 30-35ppm, 1200dpi Canon engine
that comes standard with 16Mb Memory in the 2030 and 64Mb on the 2050 series. Two different cartridges are available for
this series, the CE505A rated at 2,300 pages, and the CE505X rated for 6,500 pages. For the P2030 series, only the CE505A
cartridge will fit.

SUPPLIES REQUIRED

110g HP-P2035 toner for the CE505A cartridge (2,300 pages)
290g HP-P2035 toner for the CE505X cartridge (6,500 pages)
Replacement Chip

New Drum (Optional) Uninet #13372 - HP P 2035, 2055 Unidrum™ gearless recommended.

Wiper Blade (Optional)
Dr. Blade (Optional)
Magnetic roller (Optional)
Sealing Strip (Optional)

REQUIRED SUPPLIES

Jeweler’s screwdriver
Phillips head screw driver
Small Common screw driver
X-Acto knife with square chisel type blade (# 17)
Flush Cutting wire cutters

3/32 drill bit
Small #4 ¼” long self tapping screws

The pins in these cartridges are very similar to the HP-1160/1320 cartridges. The best way to remove them without damaging
the cartridge is to cut two small holes. Other than the location, basically the same procedure as the 1160/1320 is used.

3. Push the pins out with a jeweler’s screwdriver. With the hole
in this location by just pushing the screwdriver in, the pins will
be pushed out. Remove the pins.

4. Separate the two halves.

5. With a flat head screwdriver, press the drum axle pin out from the inside of the cartridge wall as shown. There is a small shoul­der visible that the screwdriver should be pressed against. Make sure not to bend or damage the plastic wall and the plastic is
thin and easily damaged. Remove the Axle pin from the outside with flush cutting wire cutters.
