HP LaserJet Error Codes, What They Mean & How to Fix Those Error

Codes

The HP LaserJet has certainly made life easier with its power packed features. However, at the end of the
day it is a machine and like all machines is bound to give errors. Here is a list of common error codes along
with troubleshooting tips for each HP LaserJet printer right from model number 2 till 9500.

Error code 02: Warm up issues

This error code means it is taking over 3 minutes for your HP LaserJet printer to switch on. Make sure to
check the I/O cable for loose connection. There may also be a communication issue between the printer and
cable. It could indicate a faulty D.C. power outlet or formatter PCA.

Error code 11: Out of paper

This means that your HP LaserJet is most likely short of paper. Check to see if the sensor arm of the paper
tray is damaged or caught somewhere. Check if the tray is empty of paper. It could also be that the paper
cassette is missing or the PS2 flag is damaged. Check if the seating of the paper cassette is proper.

Error code 14: Absence of toner cart

Error code 14 indicates that the printer toner cartridge is either not properly seated or installed. It could also
mean the sensitivity tabs are missing or that the toner cartridge itself is of bad quality. Make sure to check
on the right hand tabs of the toner cartridge and that the switch actuator is not bent.

Error code 22: Configuration error

These error codes are typically associated with improper configuration for the computer or the printer. Make
sure the I/O cable isn’t damaged. Check if the I/O port on the printer is damaged or not. Also check the EIO
card inside slot X of your HP LaserJet printer. Check to see if it has overflowed.

Error code 30: PS error

PS errors refer to a postscript firmware problem. For this you will need to get a new firmware chip for your
HP LaserJet to function normally again.

Error code 40: Transfer error

This usually means that there is a disconnection between data transferring from your PC to your HP LaserJet
printer. However, it can be rectified if you check on the MIO card. It should have no defects. Make sure the
serial configuration on both the PC and printer are the same. Make sure that connection between cables and
EIO ports is established.

Error code 52: Improper scanner speed

This error code implies that the HP LaserJet scanner is having faulty speeds. Check if the scanner motor is
damaged and also check if the cable assembly is faulty or not. Sometimes this could be temporary as the
scanner maybe facing startup issues. The problem could also lie with the scanner cable as it could be
damaged.

Error codes 70 and 71: damaged MIO card

This indicates that the MIO card also called SIMMS is faulty or damaged. Either the SIMM slot or the SIMM
itself is not compatible with your HP LaserJet printer. That means you will need to get a new SIMM which is
compatible.
