The four laser / toner motors spin OK and the disengagement bar seems to be moving it's full range (up and down). This seems to be one of those occasional flukes that will drive a http://printertechsforum.com/forum/showthread.php?3569-51-2K-error-on-HP-4600-stumped tech nuts. Any advice....please.

The K means black laser scanner on the 4600. Are you sure the wires are OK? Did they get chaffed on the metal chassis somewhere? The .2 is a laser error but there is no emphasis on what kind of laser error. If you are 100% certain the laser is a known good one, and the DC controller is tested, then you have wires, and the formatter left. Lastly, the black registration is FIXED, and not detected by the color registration unit, so thats out...........

I didn't think of the formatter - didn't think it would affect the
the scanner, and ran calibrate now, things didn't look quite right afterwards.The bar of black printed across the bottom of the config page was not parallel http://www.fixyourownprinter.com/posts/44617 to the bars of color. The top edge of the black bar overlaps the magenta on the left, and the cyan on the right, (you can see white between the cyan and the black http://www.fixya.com/support/t6758851-service_hp on the left, and white between the magenta and black on the left)Also the top and bottom of the black bar that is parallel to the cyan bar on the left side of printer error the page are usually about even, on this machine the black bar is obviously higher on the page than the cyan bar.The puzzling thing was that when I folded the paper in half and looked at the black frame printed around the config page and folded the page in half vertically the black frame looked like it was not skewed.I swapped the scanner I had installed in the 51.2k printer error top slot, (black), with the scanner in the bottom slot, (cyan), and the problem stayed with the black.HP Tech support suggested running calibrate now about 3-5 times, I ran it 3 times, but I don't think it can fix a skewed scannerI did not try a different toner, I didn't think of that till a few minutes ago...Any suggestions? Respond to this 0 Stephen, I've seen 2 of these with alignment issues recently.Funny enough,my fix was to replace the black laser both times.As near as I can tell,this machine uses black to key off of when doing calibration.In your situation I would first try a new black toner(or swap toners with cyan).Then I would try a transfer unit followed by the color registration detection assembly,then the DC controller.ALso,there is a CPR reset you could try before swapping parts; with the printer in a ready state,open the front cover,then press and hold the engine test button for three seconds,then power cycle the printer.A calibration should be tried after the CPR reset. I hope some of this helps, Mark by Anonymous on Jan 30, 2007 at 11:10am Add comment Please sign in to comment 0 I had the end user try a different car
