Cartridge Policy: This feature protects the printer from counterfeit toner cartridges by allowing
only genuine HP cartridges to be used with the printer. Using genuine HP cartridges ensures the
best possible print quality. When someone installs a cartridge that is not a genuine HP cartridge,
the printer control panel displays a message that the cartridge is unauthorized and it provides
information explaining how to proceed.
Supply Protection: This feature permanently associates toner cartridges with a specific printer,
or fleet of printers, so they cannot be used in other printers. Protecting cartridges protects your
investment. When this feature is enabled, if someone attempts to transfer a protected cartridge
from the original printer into an unauthorized printer, that printer will not print with the protected
cartridge. The printer control panel displays a message that the cartridge is protected, and it
provides information explaining how to proceed.
CAUTION: After enabling supply protection for the printer, all subsequent toner cartridges
installed in the printer are automatically and
permanently
protected. To avoid protecting a new
cartridge, disable the feature
before
installing the new cartridge.
Turning the feature off does not turn off protection for cartridges that are currently installed.

Protection.
The Supply Protection feature allows an
administrator to restrict cartridges to work in only
one printer or fleet of printers. The cartridge must be
replaced to continue printing.

Replace the toner cartridge
To ensure optimal print quality, replace the toner cartridge when the printer alerts you that the toner is
low or empty.
Toner cartridge information
Review details about ordering replacement toner cartridges.
The printer indicates when the toner-cartridge level is low and very low. The actual toner cartridge life
remaining can vary. Consider having a replacement cartridge available to install when print quality is no
longer acceptable.
Continue printing with the current cartridge until redistributing the toner no longer yields acceptable
print quality. To redistribute the toner, remove the toner cartridge from the printer and gently rock
the cartridge back and forth end to end. For graphical representation, see the cartridge replacement
instructions. Reinsert the toner cartridge into the printer, and then close the cover.

Chapter 6 Solve problems
background
1. Open the printer and remove any jammed sheets of paper. Verify that no torn remnants of paper
remain inside the printer.
2. Load the tray with the correct size of paper for the job.
3. Make sure the paper size and type are set correctly on the printer control panel.
4. Make sure the paper guides in the tray are adjusted correctly for the size of paper. Adjust the guides
to the appropriate indentation in the tray. The arrow on the tray guide should line up exactly with the
marking on the tray.
NOTE: Do not adjust the paper guides tightly against the paper stack. Adjust them to the
indentations or markings in the tray.
The following images show examples of the paper-size indentations in the trays for various printers.
Most HP printers have markings similar to these.

87
background
In high-humidity environments, paper at the top of the stack in the tray can absorb moisture, and it
might have a wavy or uneven appearance. If this happens, remove the top 5 to 10 sheets of paper
from the stack.
In low-humidity environments, excess static electricity can cause sheets of paper to stick together.
If this happens, remove the paper from the tray, and flex the stack by holding it at each end and
bringing the ends up to form a U shape. Then, rotate the ends down to reverse the U shape. Next,
hold each side of the stack of paper and repeat this process. This process releases individual
sheets without introducing static electricity. Straighten the paper stack against a table before
returning it to the tray.

6. Check the printer control panel to see if it is displaying a prompt to feed the paper manually. Load
paper, and continue.
7. The rollers above the tray might be contaminated. Clean the rollers with a lint-free cloth dampened
with warm water. Use distilled water, if it is available.
CAUTION: Do not spray water directly onto the printer. Instead, spray water on the cloth or dab
the cloth in water and wring it out before cleaning the rollers.
The following image shows examples of the roller location for various printers.

The printer picks up multiple sheets of paper
If the printer picks up multiple sheets of paper from the tray, try these solutions:
1. Remove the stack of paper from the tray and flex it, rotate it 180 degrees, and flip it over.
Do not fan
the paper.
Return the stack of paper to the tray.
NOTE: Fanning the paper introduces static electricity. Instead of fanning the paper, flex the stack
by holding it at each end and bringing the ends up to form a U shape. Then, rotate the ends down to
reverse the U shape. Next, hold each side of the stack of paper and repeat this process. This
process releases individual sheets without introducing static electricity. Straighten the paper
stack against a table before returning it to the tray.

paper dry.
In high-humidity environments, paper at the top of the stack in the tray can absorb moisture, and it
might have a wavy or uneven appearance. If this happens, remove the top 5 to 10 sheets of paper
from the stack.
In low-humidity environments, excess static electricity can cause sheets of paper to stick together. If
this happens, remove the paper from the tray and flex the stack as described above.
4. Use paper that is not wrinkled, folded, or damaged. If necessary, use paper from a different
package.
5. Make sure the tray is not overfilled by checking the stack-height markings inside the tray. If it is
overfilled, remove the entire stack of paper from the tray, straighten the stack, and then return some
of the paper to the tray.
The following examples show the stack-height markings in the trays for various printers. Most HP
printers have markings similar to these. Also make sure that all sheets of paper are below the tabs
near the stack-height marks. These tabs help hold the paper in the correct position as it enters the
printer.

Check toner-cartridge status
Follow these steps to check the estimated life remaining in the toner cartridges and if applicable, the
status of other replaceable maintenance parts.
Step one: Print the Supplies Status Page
The supplies status page indicates the cartridge status.
1. From the Home screen on the printer control panel, select the Reports menu.
2. Select the Configuration/Status Pages menu.
3. Select Supplies Status Page, and then select Print to print the page.
Step two: Check supplies status
Check the supplies status report as follows.
1. Look at the supplies status report to check the percent of life remaining for the toner cartridges
and, if applicable, the status of other replaceable maintenance parts.
Print quality problems can occur when using a toner cartridge that is at its estimated end of life.
The supplies status page indicates when a supply level is very low. After an HP supply has reached
the very low threshold, HP’s premium protection warranty on that supply has ended.
The toner cartridge does not need to be replaced now unless the print quality is no longer
acceptable. Consider having a replacement available to install when print quality is no longer
acceptable.
If you determine that you need to replace a toner cartridge or other replaceable maintenance
parts, the supplies status page lists the genuine HP part numbers.
2. Check to see if you are using a genuine HP cartridge.
A genuine HP toner cartridge has the word “HP” on it, or has the HP logo on it. For more information
on identifying HP cartridges go to www.hp.com/go/learnaboutsupplies.
Print a cleaning page
During the printing process paper, toner, and dust particles can accumulate inside the printer and can
cause print-quality issues such as toner specks or spatter, smears, streaks, lines, or repeating marks.
Follow these steps to clean the printer paper path:
1. From the Home screen on the printer control panel, select the Support Tools menu.
2. Select the following menus:
a. Maintenance
b. Calibration/Cleaning
c. Cleaning Page
3. Select Print to print the page.
A Cleaning... message displays on the printer control panel. The cleaning process takes a few
minutes to complete. Do not turn the printer off until the cleaning process has finished. When it is
finished, discard the printed page.
Check toner-cartridge status
123
background
Visually inspect the toner cartridge or cartridges
Follow these steps to inspect each toner cartridge:
1. Remove the toner cartridge from the printer, and verify that the sealing tape has been removed.
2. Check the memory chip for damage.
3. Examine the surface of the green imaging drum.
CAUTION: Do not touch the imaging drum. Fingerprints on the imaging drum can cause print-
quality problems.
4. If you see any scratches, fingerprints, or other damage on the imaging drum, replace the toner
cartridge.
5. Reinstall the toner cartridge and print a few pages to see if the problem has resolved.
Check paper and the printing environment
Use the following information to check the paper selection and the printing environment.
Step one: Use paper that meets HP specifications
Some print-quality problems arise from using paper that does not meet HP specifications.
Always use a paper type and weight that this printer supports.
Use paper that is of good quality and free of cuts, nicks, tears, spots, loose particles, dust, wrinkles,
voids, staples, and curled or bent edges.
Use paper that has not been previously printed on.
Use paper that does not contain metallic material, such as glitter.
Use paper that is designed for use in laser printers. Do not use paper that is designed only for use in
Inkjet printers.
Use paper that is not too rough. Using smoother paper generally results in better print quality.
Step two: Check the environment
The environment can directly affect print quality and is a common cause of print-quality or paper-
feeding issues. Try the following solutions:
Move the printer away from drafty locations, such as open windows or doors, or air-conditioning
vents.
Make sure the printer is not exposed to temperatures or humidity outside of printer specifications.
Do not place the printer in a confined space, such as a cabinet.
Place the printer on a sturdy, level surface.
Remove anything that is blocking the vents on the printer. The printer requires good air flow on all
sides, including the top.
Protect the printer from airborne debris, dust, steam, grease, or other elements that can leave
residue inside the printer.

unexpected lines in graphics, missing text, missing graphics, incorrect formatting, or substituted fonts.
Download a different print driver from the HP support Web site: www.hp.com/support/lj8501.
Check the EconoMode settings
HP does not recommend the full-time use of EconoMode. If EconoMode is used full-time, the toner
supply might outlast the mechanical parts in the toner cartridge. If print quality begins to degrade and is
no longer acceptable, consider replacing the toner cartridge.
NOTE: This feature is available with the PCL 6 print driver for Windows. If you are not using that driver,
you can enable the feature by using the HP Embedded Web Server.
Follow these steps if the entire page is too dark or too light.
1. From the software program, select the Print option.

Appendix A Service and support
background
Le consommateur dispose d’un délai de deux ans à compter de la délivrance du bien pour obtenir la mise en oeuvre de la
garantie légale de conformité en cas d’apparition d’un défaut de conformité. Durant ce délai, le consommateur n’est tenu
d’établir que l’existence du défaut de conformité et non la date d’apparition de celui-ci.
Lorsque le contrat de vente du bien prévoit la fourniture d’un contenu numérique ou d’un service numérique de manière
continue pendant une durée supérieure à deux ans, la garantie légale est applicable à ce contenu numérique ou ce service
numérique tout au long de la période de fourniture prévue. Durant ce délai, le consommateur n’est tenu d’établir que l’existence
du défaut de conformité affectant le contenu numérique ou le service numérique et non la date d’apparition de celui-ci.
La garantie légale de conformité emporte obligation pour le professionnel, le cas échéant, de fournir toutes les mises à jour
nécessaires au maintien de la conformité du bien.
La garantie légale de conformité donne au consommateur droit à la réparation ou au remplacement du bien dans un délai de
trente jours suivant sa demande, sans frais et sans inconvénient majeur pour lui.
Si le bien est réparé dans le cadre de la garantie légale de conformité, le consommateur bénéficie d’une extension de six mois
de la garantie initiale. Si le consommateur demande la réparation du bien, mais que le vendeur impose le remplacement, la
garantie légale de conformité est renouvelée pour une période de deux ans à compter de la date de remplacement du bien.
Le consommateur peut obtenir une réduction du prix d’achat en conservant le bien ou mettre fin au contrat en se faisant
rembourser intégralement contre restitution du bien, si:
1° Le professionnel refuse de réparer ou de remplacer le bien;
2° La réparation ou le remplacement du bien intervient après un délai de trente jours;
3° La réparation ou le remplacement du bien occasionne un inconvénient majeur pour le consommateur, notamment lorsque
le consommateur supporte définitivement les frais de reprise ou d’enlèvement du bien non conforme, ou s’il supporte les frais
d’installation du bien réparé ou de remplacement;
4° La non-conformité du bien persiste en dépit de la tentative de mise en conformité du vendeur restée infructueuse.
Le consommateur a également droit à une réduction du prix du bien ou à la résolution du contrat lorsque le défaut de
conformité est si grave qu’il justifie que la réduction du prix ou la résolution du contrat soit immédiate. Le consommateur n’est
alors pas tenu de demander la réparation ou le remplacement du bien au préalable.
Le consommateur n’a pas droit à la résolution de la vente si le défaut de conformité est mineur.
Toute période d’immobilisation du bien en vue de sa réparation ou de son remplacement suspend la garantie qui restait à courir
jusqu’à la délivrance du bien remis en état.
Les droits mentionnés ci-dessus résultent de l’application des articles L. 217-1 à L. 217-32 du code de la consommation.
Le vendeur qui fait obstacle de mauvaise foi à la mise en oeuvre de la garantie légale de conformité encourt une amende civile
d’un montant maximal de 300 000 euros, qui peut être porté jusqu’à 10 % du chiffre d’affaires moyen annuel (article L. 241-5 du
code de la consommation).
Le consommateur bénéficie également de la garantie légale des vices cachés en application des articles 1641 à 1649 du code
civil, pendant une durée de deux ans à compter de la découverte du défaut. Cette garantie donne droit à une réduction de prix si
le bien est conservé ou à un remboursement intégral contre restitution du bien.

HP anticounterfeit Web site
Go to www.hp.com/go/anticounterfeit when you install an HP cartridge and the control-panel message
indicates the cartridge is non-HP. HP will help determine if the cartridge is genuine and take steps to
resolve the problem.
Your cartridge might not be a genuine HP cartridge if you notice the following:
The supplies status page indicates that a non-HP supply is installed.
You are experiencing a high number of problems with the cartridge.
The cartridge does not look like it usually does (for example, the packaging differs from
HP packaging).
Data stored on the toner cartridge
The HP toner cartridges used with this product contain a memory chip that assists in the operation of
the product.
In addition, this memory chip collects a limited set of information about the usage of the product, which
might include the following: the date when the toner cartridge was first installed, the date when the toner
cartridge was last used, the number of pages printed using the toner cartridge, the page coverage,
the printing modes used, any printing errors that might have occurred, and the product model. This
information helps HP design future products to meet our customers' printing needs.
The data collected from the toner cartridge memory chip does not contain information that can be used
to identify a customer or user of the toner cartridge or their product.
HP collects a sampling of the memory chips from toner cartridges returned to HP's free return and
recycling program (HP Planet Partners: www.hp.com/hprecycle). The memory chips from this sampling
are read and studied in order to improve future HP products. HP partners who assist in recycling this
toner cartridge might have access to this data, as well.
Any third party possessing the toner cartridge might have access to the anonymous information on the
memory chip.

THE SOFTWARE WILL FUNCTION WITH NON-HP SUPPLIES OR ACCESSORIES; AND (v), OF LACK OF

the entire liability of HP and any of its suppliers under any provision of this EULA and your exclusive
remedy for all of the foregoing shall be limited to the greater of the amount actually paid by you

ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES AND EVEN IF THE REMEDY FAILS OF ITS

notice that if HP repairs your Software, that repair may result in the loss of that data. To the
full extent permitted by law, the limitations and exclusions of HP’s liability in this EULA apply in

If you are a consumer within the meaning of the Australia Consumer Law and you are purchasing
the Software or warranty and support services for the Software which are not of a kind ordinarily
acquired for personal, domestic or household use or consumption, then despite any other provision
of this EULA, HP limits its liability for failure to comply with a consumer guarantee as follows:
a. provision of warranty or support services for the Software: to any one or more of the following:
re-supply of the services or payment of the costs of having the services re-supplied;
b. provision of the Software: to any one or more of the following: replacement of the Software or
the supply of equivalent software; repair of the Software; payment of the costs of replacing the
Software or of acquiring equivalent software; or payment of the costs of having the Software
repaired; and
c. otherwise, to the maximum extent permitted by law.
New Zealand Consumers: In New Zealand, the Software comes with guarantees that cannot be
excluded under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993. In New Zealand, Consumer Transaction means
a transaction involving a person who is purchasing goods for personal, domestic or household
use or consumption and not for the purpose of a business. New Zealand consumers who are
purchasing goods for personal, domestic or household use or consumption and not for the purpose
of a business ("New Zealand Consumers") are entitled to repair, replacement or refund for a failure
and compensation for other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. A New Zealand Consumer (as
defined above) may recover the costs of returning the product to the place of purchase if there
is a breach of the New Zealand consumer law; furthermore, if it will be of significant cost to the
New Zealand Consumer to return the goods to HP then HP will collect such goods at its own cost.
Where any supply of products or services is for business purposes, you agree that the Consumer
Guarantees Act 1993 does not apply and that given the nature and value of the transaction, this is
fair and reasonable.

Customer self-repair warranty service
HP products are designed with many Customer Self Repair (CSR) parts to minimize repair time and
allow for greater flexibility in performing defective parts replacement. If during the diagnosis period, HP
identifies that the repair can be accomplished by the use of a CSR part, HP will ship that part directly
to you for replacement. There are two categories of CSR parts: 1) Parts for which customer self repair is
mandatory. If you request HP to replace these parts, you will be charged for the travel and labor costs
of this service. 2) Parts for which customer self repair is optional. These parts are also designed for
Customer Self Repair. If, however, you require that HP replace them for you, this may be done at no
additional charge under the type of warranty service designated for your product.
Based on availability and where geography permits, CSR parts will be shipped for next business day
delivery. Same-day or four-hour delivery may be offered at an additional charge where geography
permits. If assistance is required, you can call the HP Technical Support Center and a technician will
help you over the phone. HP specifies in the materials shipped with a replacement CSR part whether a
defective part must be returned to HP. In cases where it is required to return the defective part to HP,
you must ship the defective part back to HP within a defined period of time, normally five (5) business
days. The defective part must be returned with the associated documentation in the provided shipping
material. Failure to return the defective part may result in HP billing you for the replacement. With a
customer self repair, HP will pay all shipping and part return costs and determine the courier/carrier to
be used.
