Error Message 54.1
error when I power the unit on. It displays the message remove toner tape in toner cartridge which I have done. I purchased another cartridge,same result. I installed the toner cartridge in another printer and it works fine. If anyone has had this problem on this printer and know s what I need to do to fix this it would be very much appreciated ! Respond to this 1 Moe,What happens if you pull off the chip and install the cartridge?ST by Stephen on Jan 25, 2007 at 3:32pm Add comment Please sign in to comment 0 http://www.fixyourownprinter.com/forums/printer/42998#1 by Anonymous on Jan 19, 2007 at 3:35pm Add comment Please sign in to comment 0 dekuda did the right thing by starting a new thread, pointing him back to a the 4200 thread he posted in earlier just confuses the issue. We avoid mixing different models in the same thread as this leads to people reading advice for one model and then trying to apply it to a different model, and while some advice will apply to more that one machine, it doesn't always work.As to the error message.Check that the contact springs that connect the toner cartridge to the printer are all in the proper position.Make sure that the transfer roller is seated fully.Does it look like the cartridge is going all the way in to it's proper position? If it is not fully seated it might not be making contact with one of the connections.The service manual just says remove the tape, and does not say how the machine detects the error.Dekuda, if you figure this out please post the fix, it looks like you were fortunate enough to be the first poster who had this problem on a 4100,

She was getting a dark background on leading 3 inches of prints. It looked like a thousand defective cartridges I've seen, so I told her to replace the cartridge. It was OEM, by the way. She ordered a reconditioned one and it gave her an error 54.1, which means to pull the tape, but it's been pulled. So she ordered another of the same cartridge and it did the same thing. So she ordered an OEM cartridge, and the same thing. However, if she puts the original cartridge back in, it will work, but still with the background. Any ideas? Thank you.
