to the white plastic piece being out of position?-m by unknown on Jul 26, 2007 at 9:28pm Add comment Please sign in to comment 0 When you open the door, there is a interlock switch in the lower http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Inkjet-Printing/HP-Color-Laser-Jet-2840-AIO-Printer-54-2-error/td-p/5085514 right corner. Stick something in it and the carousel will release. Spin it around one revolution to see if any of the cartridges are binding its movement. by moe on Jun 24, 2004 at 9:40am Add comment Please sign in to comment 0 A couple of things come to mind. First i would open the toner door and remove all the toner carridges with the power off. I would release the carousel brake to move to http://www.fixyourownprinter.com/posts/20135 each cartridge. After all are out I would turn on the printer and reinstall one at a time to see f that stops the error. If not, the other item will require the removal of the left side cover. When the cover is remove, by the carousel area you will see a sensor assembly with wires runnig to it held by one screw. Remove the screws and remove the sensor assembly and clean the oposite site which is probably has a large build up of magenta toner. Reinstall and see what happens. by dmzcompute on Jun 24, 2004 at 9:47am Add comment Please sign in to comment 0 I have a Color Laserjet 4500 in the shop doing exactly the same thing. I've tried all the suggestions posted above as well as followed all the steps outlined in the link at the bottom of this message. The message comes up even with *all* the toner carts removed as well as the drum unit. With all this removed, when powering on the printer and after it says "Initializing", I see a message something like "..insert drum.." for a split second, then the 54.2 message shows up. Same thing happens with all the carts back in and just the drum left out or any combination I've tried so far. Anybody got any other suggestions? Thanks in advanc
to call HP tech support...yeah right.In the document support for HP, this one says "grinding noises when installing toner." Well, I haven't heard any grinding noises, but I followed http://fixyourownprinter.com/posts/48680 their steps (taking out all the toner cartridges, one by one), and every time I turn the printer back on, the same error message appears, even when all the cartridges have been removed from the printer.Any advice ?Thanks in advance. :) Respond to this 0 Maybe you have a lot of dust in the caroussel postition sensors, so these sensors do not operate correctly anymore. Now the printer thinks the printer error caroussel does not reach the right position within the specified time => The printer thinks there is an obstruction for the caroussel. Clean the sensors with a brush. And now you are busy, maybe it is the opportunity to clean out the whole printer with compressed air....goodluckmarco by unknown on Jun 28, 2007 at 8:01am Add comment Please sign in to comment 0 thanks, marco - i'll give this a try. 54.2 printer error by Emeric7 on Jun 28, 2007 at 9:24am Add comment Please sign in to comment 0 If you are going to blow it out with compressed air, there are 2 things you want to make sure you do first. Carry the printer outside because it can get messy. Slide out the waste tray from above the fuser assembly. That will get messy if you hit it with air. You'll look like a multi-colored Smurf. by moe on Jun 28, 2007 at 9:50am Add comment Please sign in to comment 0 and if you want to blow it out, remove all the toners, the drum, the transfer, the fuser, the transfer drawer, the paper tray(s). Best to remove all the covers too. Blow it out with compressed air from all sides untill no more toner comes out.. by unknown on Jun 30, 2007 at 6:17am Add comment Please sign in to comment 0 Okay, I tried all this. Took out every tray, blew compressed air all over the printer, inside and out. No success, still saying error 54.2. I really do thank you all for your advice--I managed to come out not too Smurfy--but wondering if there might be another solution ? The toner cartridges all enter correctly, they're all ne
