  1. HP L28500 Question...

    Ok, can confirm power is running through fuses and terminates correctly when switched. Question - when I try to put the printer into Diagnostic Mode as above I'm having issues. When I do the sequence the icons flash and disappear. Following this the printer does its normal boot so it gets to...
  2. HP L28500 Question...

    Thanks for all the help StephenOrange I will have a play around with the Diagnostics mode today. Im 100% they switches are armed and on but probably worth putting a volt checker on them to make sure power is passing through. Will do this morning and report back.
  3. HP L28500 Question...

    Ok, thanks! I'll give that a go. I'm familiar with the 260 etc so should be right to work it out. Any pointers on what I should be testing/trying in the Diagnostic mode in this situation? Presuming I can test PSU and PrintMech in there...
  4. HP L28500 Question...

    How do I do that StephenOrange? I know how to the other machines with physical buttons that you hold....
  5. HP L28500 Question...

    Also - the only other thing the service manual notes is the possible issue with the Print Mech board. if there any way to test if there is any issues with it or just a case of replacing? The service manual doesn't really talk about testing beyond if the blue light stays on the Print Mech may...
  6. HP L28500 Question...

    Thanks dale911. Ok, so if I manage to work out how to check power is going out to each unit (heaters etc) were does that leave me? Im only really working off the service manual which says 03:10 is replace PSU and shows the procedure which is the main unit were the black lead/switch is plugged...
  7. HP L28500 Question...

    Thanks JBurton. I agree with you and the service manual points to replacing the PSU. Ive already ordered one so we shall see I guess. Would love to know anyones input on how/if I can test that the PSU under the load at the 32% is failing. Presuming that at that point its dealing with he...
  8. HP L28500 Question...

    Thanks everyone for the help. Yes I have a copy of the service manual. if I check the code as above it points to the PSU no matter what way I look at it. I have tried to power with certain things removed as well to try and isolate. Would it make sense a PSU is broken if its fan still runs on...
  9. HP L28500 Question...

    Hi All, Very difficult to find information about the larger of the HP machines as I guess not as many use them. I have a L28500 that was being used and hadn't for a few months after an error. Would like to see if we can get some use out of it before throwing it out as it seems a waste. Ok...
  10. HP L260 - Error 86:01 Substrate Jam

    Thanks ikarasu! Appreciate the help To add to the original post and notes we just did a run through to test what you said. It seems to me that when we run the scan access test and it fails (or on start up) the cart moves manually but until powered off there is bit of resistance. Not sure if...
  11. HP L260 - Error 86:01 Substrate Jam

    Hi all, I did a quick search and couldn't really find much on this one. Ok, on of HPl260 is having this issue around substrate jam even with no material. Summary: - Wont complete start up - Jams about 1 minute in just to the left of home (look at the printer) and we can see the cart in the...

    Im hoping someone can confirm this for me. Put the printer into diagnostic mode Repair a bag which starts the process. No ink short Bag broken recovery ERROR 26.3:10 Broken Bag on 3 (CYAN) When we press any key it says magenta and black require purging. What im confused with is I never get to...
  13. HP L260 Error Code

    Thank you for the response! I think the confusion is coming from my lack of knowledge on this ones! When we go to do the broken bag procedure this is when the error comes and won't let us go any further...so im confused as to how to clear it? Should we replace the cart prior to do this or...
  14. HP L260 Error Code

    Thanks for the info! I also tried to start the printer with no ink carts at all. My thinking was that is should load and request inks/show X? it does the same thing which is error 24:10. Does this help anyone add some information? Im pretty new on the Hp's...
