update!!

As per advice on the laser box screw, I turned my printer upside down and took the screw out from its position in the right hole under the shiny pinchable metal flap and moved it to the left hole.

And guess what? My prints come out PERFECT now! no fading! cool!

In reference to the comment about the single screw and fading at the side of a page… Yes, I will try moving mine because I happen to notice I have fading on the right side of every printed page.

I have a theory about the single screw at the bottom. Alignment of the laser box is critical – those things have to fire precisely through a very narrow slot in the back of each toner cartridge – but the thing is made of and mounted on bent metal sheeting which is slightly flexible. I think that they put the laser box in position and check the alignment then tighten a screw on one side or the other to take out any small inaccuracies in the metal-bending and internal assembly, and just tighten until the alignment is right. People who find fading at one side or the other after reassembly could well solve the problem by putting this screw in the other side or adjusting the tightness of it.

Well I gotta tell ya… I sat on these instructions for what seemed forever but finally took the plunge this weekend on the first of two identical printers. The first one took just about 1.5hrs and yeah, there really isn’t much dust on the mirrors at all! I reassembled and forgot one wire so I took off the back and was able to put it in. The printer worked great! Colors were like new. So then I did the other one and in half the time! Same thing– Worked perfectly!

While the ink for these costs a lot of money, we have just basically saved having to buy new printers. I was wondering, though–when you go to take off the pinch shy metal plates on the bottom… on BOTH printers I found only one screw. I wonder why they did that? I didn’t have any longer ones so I left it as is upon reassembly but still I was curious. And I also want to say that for me, I simply used small white masking tape and wrote my labels, and then wrapped them around one purple wire of whatever set I was on. I do wonder why HP didn’t just label the sets though. I guess I wonder how and why they did many things here, but now it works and I don’t need new ones. Thank you!
