How to Fix HP LBP 3150 LaserJet P1002 P1003 P1004 Erorr code "1"
Symptoms: Out of all the repairs I’ve done in the last 5 years, this one has been the number one failure. As mentioned earlier in this article, gravity fed laser printers (not just limited to Hewett Packard) experience a failure of grabbing the paper and feeding more than one sheet through at a time. Most of the time, the printing area is off, jams occur, and the end user is forced to feed a sheet of paper at a time for all print jobs.
Solution: The real problem with these printers is the material in the separation pad. It just doesn’t hold up past 10-15,000 pages. I’m not sure how these printers made it through quality assurance, but truly fixing them involves replacing not only the separation pad, but the feed roller, and two guiding pads. It’s not an easy or fun fix, but many tutorials are available online and there are plenty of third-party HP part resellers that know exactly what to include in the “sep-pad-kit”. Don’t fall for HP’s “fix” that involved sticking a cardboard square into the paper input and gluing an additional separation pad to the existing pad. It only lasts for a thousand pages and wears out the feed roller prematurely.
