HP LASERJET III 50-Service

[craigey]

Hi,

I've got a HP LASERJET III. The problem with it is that it wont print anything. When you turn it on the LCD says 50-service. I've evenn cleaned the inside of the printer. I have been to HP's website and it says to do a cold reset, Which I have. I've also e-mailed them, but haven't had any response. That was 3 weeks ago.

Any help will be apreciated

Thanks

run a google search on "hp printer error codes". Think this is a motor speed problem but the memory is beginning to fail. Ed Fair

I have ran into this problem with our 4si and 5si and I have replaced the memory and all works great.

Hey,

This is most likely a power supply problem for the LaserJet III. Search "laserjet III error code 50 service" or something very similar on Google.com and you'll get a wealth of information. It seems to be a fairly expensive problem to fix.

Good Luck!

LASERJET III ERROR 50 Refers to a bad fuser and possibly, but not always an A/C power module.

first thing to do is to replace the fusing assembly. This is the item that bonds the toner to you paper. This part can be purchased at

Its a very easy thing to do.. four screws and your done.
The part # is RG1-0939.

Get the refurbished part, its around 50 to 75 bucks...
This will fix your problem..

it is 90 percent of the time a bad fuser.... like the man said... js error; 67 on line; 36 of signature.class

Well, some of you are "righter" than others! Check this website out. They give you diagnostics on how to prove whether it is the fuser or the power supply AND the parts and instructional videos on how to do it!

And for a couple of more screws and carful handling the bulb can be replaced for about $15.00. Ed Fair
