2840 AIO: aio HP 2840 print white or yellow, fax and copy is in color

The printer prints white or yellow. Fax and copy is without any problem and in color. What can be the François for this dysfunction between fax/copying and printing.

I try to imagine the proper name for it, but this point that does not is the solenoid that engages the carousel in position.

This solenoid holds the stationary carousel while you print to any given color and then frees him then the carousel can turn a quarter turn it is necessary to get to the next color.

What happens is that when the carousel does not lock out of position toner cartridge derivatives and none of the toner transferred to the intermediate transfer belt. Sometimes you get yellow is the first color of the 4 it sets for an image.

What actually happens is the piece of foam rubber that is located between the arms of the solenoid and the solenoid deteriorates and becomes sticky and arm sticks to him instead of the carousel of locking in position.

To fix this you will need to disassemble the machine where you can remove the solenoid and remove the arm from the solenoid, it's pretty simple when you look at it. Then clean the tarry residue and replace it with a very thin pen, you can get them at a dollar store, if you buy the high quality pads they are way too thick and the solenoid valve will not work. You have to have something between the metal arm and the metal Center of the solenoid or the residual magnetism that has developed in the metal causes the two parts together.

You can find the service manual for this machine to: feedroller.com

  • why I can not install my canon PIXMA410 printer, fax and copyer scanner. It has been installed. now, he tells me that this is not something drivers

    After putting the new ink in there it will not respond or print

    This should be included in the Canon support forum, because it seems to be a hardware problem with the printer and is not a software problem or driver.

If this is the case, what program are you a victim of problems when printing?  If the 'Send of Fax' window is popping up under all programs that you print from your computer, it is likely that the wrong printer is selected as the default printer in the printers and devices window. Can I please you follow the steps below to fix this problem.

    Set the default printer:

    1. Click on the Start menu
    2. Select the devices and printers or Printers (you may need to access it via Control Panel)
    3. Under the Printers folder, locate your HP Officejet 5742 e-all-in-one. This printer should display a green check mark above to indicate that it is the default printer.
    4. If your Fax-HP Officejet 5742 e-all-in-one shows like check mark on this subject, please right click on HP Officejet 5742 e-all-in-one (printer) and left click on "default".

    Once the correct printer has been confirmed as the default printer please test print to confirm that the 'Fax' problem is solved.

    Once solve us the problem of Fax, we will be able to adjust your print settings to confirm that your printer is configured to print on the correct paper and with appropriate support tray.

    How to check the paper tray settings:

    3. Under the Printers folder, locate your HP Officejet 5742 e-all-in-one
    4. Right click on the HP Officejet
    5. Left click on Printing Preferences
    6. On the paper/quality tab, make sure that the Paper Source is set to main tray
    7. Also, ensure that the media is set on plain white paper (if that's what you print on)
    8. Click apply and OK
    9. Close the Printers folder
    10. Try to print a document to confirm that your HP Officejet prints from the correct tray.

    Please reply to this message with the result of your troubleshooting. I can't wait to hear strings attached good luck!

  • HP color laserjet 2840 printing and copy blank page

    Hi all

    I have hp color laserjet 2840, printing and copy empty, I change the toner and drum but nothing! any idea?

    Sorry for my bed English

    Thank you

    Try this test.

    Printed page in after you get the blank page open the access door and see if you can move the carrousel by hand.

    If the carousel will rotate the carousel latch is stuck.

    The lock can be fixed by disassembly of the valve and clean some foam sticky residue deteriorated and its replacement by a thin piece of material. I use stickers very thin markers of a dollar store.

  • Windows Server 2008 R2, driver HP 7410 AIO, TCP Port printing

    I just finished a new installation of Windows Server 2008 R2 64 bit on my computer that was previously using Windows Server 2008 64 bit and can't set up access to the network at my AIO 7410 printer. I would use the most recent driver Windows 7 64 bit (AIO_CDB_FSW_Full_Win_WW_130_141.exe), but the installation of the driver complains "this type of product does not have the list of the types of supported products. My first question is a driver Windows 2008 R2 64-bit will be available soon since none are currently provided?

    The way, I have Vista (AIO_CDB_Full_Network_enu_NB.exe) that does not detect the printer (192.168.1.100) of the computer (192.168.1.2) if I get the installation to complete using the USB option then try the last driver. Once done, I try to change the properties of the printer to change the used "USB001" port - virtual printer to USB port to a TCP port. However, when I click on the "add a Port" and choose "Standard TCP/IP Port" I get a dialog with a title "Add Printer Ports" and the error message "cannot add port specified. Access is denied. »

    Has anyone solved what is the root cause of this error? I am an administrator on the PC and have never seen this before curve ball.

    I should add that a test page print correctly via the USB cable and another Vista PC on the network continues to access the printer through the network so that the printer works fine.

    Thanks in advance!

    Google is my friend! Found this thread: http://forums.techguy.org/windows-vista/541278-solved-access-denied-network-printers.html that helped.

    The main steps are to create a new local printer, select the TCP port and provide the IP address of the printer. Windows query the printer and will automatically detect the HP 7410 driver is already installed and ask if it should use this driver I have answered Yes to. You should see a second printer now available in the control panel which is probably selected as the default printer. I unplugged the USB cable, print a test page using the new TCP profile and it works beautifully.

    I wish it was not so difficult to switch from a USB port to a TCP port, but I'm happy to have found a work around.

    I hope that this avoids some of the pain of losing a darker night of their lives thanks to the peculiarities of Windows!

  • Dell aio 966 photo printer

    Hello

    • Version of the seller: G16 - EN
    • Version of Dell: A02

    Try to install a Dell 966 AIO printer on a windows system 7.  Downloaded the driver from the website of dell (G16 - FR, A02)... seems to install properly, the computer sees the device under "devices and printers".  When I print to it, failure, error says start bidirectional printing.   When I go to the properties of the printer in the "port" tab and try to click "enable bi-directional support", I can check it out, but when I leave and check back to disabled.   I've uninstalled and reinstalled twice with the same result.   Takes a long time to uninstall, if that means something

    The type of connection is USB and it worked perfectly on my old windows xp system.  Yes, all course windows updates, at least until July 2013 have been installed.  Thought it might have something to do with my anti-virus (AVG), but disable AVG installation has not made a difference.

    • Version of the seller: G16 - EN
    • Version of Dell: A02

    The system is a new hp desktop computer that has been started for the first time last week, there was no reason for me to install or reinstall the operating system, so that the answer to your question is no, I didn't install or reinstall the operating system.  I uninstalled windows 7 software downloaded from the site of dell printer driver and ran your commercial printer to cleaning which did not find anything for cleaning.  Uninstall AVG and then reinstall the printer software has nothing else that cause me to lose an hour of reinstalling the printer software, could still not print, then reinstall AVG.  Once more, I deleted the windows printer driver 7 this time tried installing the driver in compatibility mode vista.   When the driver software finished installing, I noticed the bidirectional support box was already checked on the ports tab in the printer properties and of course, I can now print.

  • HP LaserJet 400 M401dn: M401dn not print white text on a black background

    Hello

    We do not print white text on a blackground on a M401dn. I am trying to print a Word document. Prints fine on other printers we have - Brother HL-2240dn, Ricoh Aficio C4501.

    When the work is submitted the HP printer prints a black block. There is no white text.

    Can someone help me solve this problem please?

    Thank you.

    After reviewing your samples in detail a bit more, I suspect that the problem may be associated with the size of the font you are selection (so it would affect black text on white background) rather than being something to do with the colors of text and background.

    With a number of recent models LaserJet Mnnn , a firmware issue has prevented use of the font with a size of 72 points or more.

    These appear to have been fixed with a new version of the firmware - see http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-All-in-One-Software-Drivers/M401dn-Firmware-Printing-issues/m-p/5008912

  • OfficeJet L7680 - thick horizontal white lines when printing faxes and fed through copies

    Fine prints from the computer.

    Print fine, but now when you print a fax or copy a fed, I'm thick horizontal white lines making it impossible to read some of the impression.

    It was suggested to me to uninstall and then reinstall as a power surge may have corrupted a file create this problem. Cannot figure out how unintall it. It does not appear in my program announcements. to remedy this, I downloaded an updated driver. Did not help.

    Hello sz6,.

    Looks like you may need to clean the lid of the scanner printer and it's other components.

    See this troubleshooting article for step by step instructions.

    Vertical stripes, lines or streaks on Copies, faxes or scan

    This article can also help to solve your problem.

    Received faxes are empty or have vertical lines

    Articles specifically mention the vertical lines, but given that printing works very well and it has only the faxes or scans I think that information is still valid.

  • Ability to print white

    I have a HP Officejet J4540.  Anyone know if I can print it in white by changing the color settings?  I would like to print white letters on dark purple paper.

    Thanks, DonnaCD

    The printer uses a subtractive method, it cannot print white on a dark background.  (The color lighter, it can be printed is no ink, which would be the color of the background.)  You need a printer with white ink.  I know not all printers currently available with this feature, I think that there was once an Alps printer that would print white.

    Another option would be to print upside down, the purple background of printing on white paper.  Would we much ink and may not yield the results you want...
