2 Printing Software Overview Introduction This chapter introduces the software you received with your printer and briefly describes its features. It also lists additional software you can obtain for your printer by contacting HP Distribution or your authorized HP dealer. Your printer is packaged with the software you need to take full advantage of your printer’s features in MS Windows, some DOS environments, and to connect your printer to a wide variety of networks.
Software for MS Windows Your printer comes with the HP LaserJet 5/5M Printing System for Microsoft Windows. If you have set up your printer correctly, you have already used the auto-installation setup program to load the following: • • • • MS Windows Printer Drivers Status Utilities Fonts Network Management Utilities MS Windows Printer Drivers The printer drivers enable your MS Windows applications to communicate with your printer and use all of your printer’s features.
HP LaserJet 5/5M - Enhanced This is a new, enhanced driver which provides better printing performance with complex graphics in MS Windows, as well as better WYSIWYG (what-you-see-is-what-you-get) performance. This may provide output which is slightly different than earlier drivers which were not WYSIWYG. This driver can be selected from the MS Windows Printer Control Panel. PostScript Level 2 Status utilities display the printer’s status, job status and error messages on the computer screen.
HP JetPrint The HP JetPrint utility for networks reports printer activities similar to the Status Window. It also allows users to see all accessible print queues and allows users to manage their print jobs. The Job Details button on the HP JetPrint screen provides more detailed information on a print job. HP JetPrint is represented by an icon in the lower left hand corner in the MS Windows 3.1 Networked Environment.
TrueType Screen Fonts Screen fonts allow you to see a close representation on the computer screen of what the printed page will look like. This is known as WYSIWYG, short for “what-you-see-is-what-you-get.” The TrueType fonts match the printer’s internal fonts. These fonts are automatically loaded and configured when you install the HP LaserJet 5/5M Printing System for Microsoft Windows.
Software for DOS Your printer comes with two DOS application printer drivers and two DOS-environment software utilities. DOS Printer Drivers Printer drivers are program files that allow your software to use the printer’s features, including the internal fonts. Printer drivers for the following DOS applications are included on the DOS Application Utilities and Drivers diskette: • WordPerfect 5.1 and 6.0 • Lotus 1-2-3 versions 2.3, 2.4, 3.1, 3.4, 4.
Status Monitor The Status Monitor, a terminate-and-stay-resident (TSR) program, reports printer messages and error conditions directly to your computer screen. It is especially useful if you can’t see the printer while you work. When a printer condition arises, the Status Monitor displays a message on your screen without affecting your work in progress. You can set up your computer to run the Status Monitor automatically when you turn on your computer, or you can load it at any time.
Software for Macintosh The HP LaserJet 5M printer comes with an installer program that automatically installs the following on your hard disk: • Macintosh printer drivers • Bitmapped screen fonts • HP LaserJet Utility Macintosh Printer Drivers HP LaserJet The “HP LaserJet” is an Adobe PostScript Level 2 printer driver. Once you install this driver, most of your printer’s features are available from the Print and Page Setup dialog boxes.
HP LaserJet Utility The HP LaserJet Utility allows you to control most printer features from your computer screen. You can display or customize the current control panel message. You can name the printer, assign it to a zone on your network, download files and fonts, and change most of the printer default settings using this utility. You can set the printer’s password and even lock out the control panel without leaving your computer.
Optional Networking Software Available You can order optional networking software from HP Distribution or your nearest authorized HP Dealer (see the HP Support pages at the front of this manual).
3 Using the Printer Control Panel Introduction You can perform most routine printing tasks from your computer, through your software application. Software is usually the most convenient way to control your printer. Many of the functions described in this chapter can also be performed using the software that comes with your printer. Refer to Chapter 2, “Printing Software Overview” or the online help files associated with the software for more information.
Control Panel Layout The printer control panel consists of a 16-character display panel and six keys, three of which have forward and backward scrolling functions. Figure 3-1 Control Panel Layout Note In the right side of the display panel a square icon blinks when receiving data or processing a print job. Control Panel Keys The table on the following page explains how the printer control panel keys work.
Table 3-1 Control Panel Keys Key Explanation [Go] The [Go] key replaces the On Line, Form Feed and Continue keys from previous HP LaserJet printers. The [Go] key performs six main functions: • Switches the state of communication between computer and printer either on (on line) or off (off line). • Prints any data remaining in printer’s buffer. Does not send a blank sheet of paper through the printer. • Allows the printer to resume printing after a printer message has placed it off line.
Control Panel Menus Pressing [Menu] gives you access to menus, one after another. Each menu is described in a separate table in this section. When options (such as the PostScript language or duplex printing) are installed in the printer, new menus or menu items are automatically added to the control panel menus. To print a menu map of the control panel menus: 1 Press [Menu] until PRINTING MENU appears. 2 Press [Item] until PRINT MENU MAP appears. 3 Press [Select] to print the menu map.

Table 3-5 Job Menu Items Item Options Explanation RESOLUTION 300 600* At 600-dpi (dots per inch), the printer might need as much as four times more memory to format a page than it needs at 300-dpi. For most purposes, 600-dpi is recommended.
Configuration Menu Configuration Menu items can be selected only from the printer control panel. You cannot temporarily change them in your software application. See Figure 3-2, item E for the location of the Configuration Menu on the Menu Map. Table 3-6 Configuration Menu Items Options Explanation TRAY 1 FIRST* When set to FIRST Tray 1 is configured as the default tray and will be used first during printing. TRAY 1=FIRST is not recommended for networked (shared) environments.
Table 3-8 Configuration Menu Items (continued) Item Options Explanation CLR WARN ON* JOB CLR WARN stands for “clearable warnings.” This setting determines how long a clearable warning will be displayed on the printer control panel. When set to ON, the warning is displayed until the [Go] key is pushed. If set to JOB, the warning will be displayed until the end of the print job in which it was generated.
Memory Configuration Menu This menu contains the items for personality Resource Saving and I/O Buffering. Depending on how your printer’s memory is configured, any combination of menu items and possible values can appear. See Chapter 5 for additional PostScript information. When you change an item in this menu, the printer automatically resets, and all fonts, macros and downloaded data in the printer are lost. Memory Configuration Menu items can be selected only from the printer control panel.

4 Printing Introduction This chapter explains your printing options and gives common printing tasks: • Preparing for Printing • Selecting Paper and Other Print Media • Media Input Options • Loading Tray 2 • Loading Tray 1 • Printing Tasks • Stopping a Print Job • Manually Feeding Pages • Reserving or Locking-out Trays • Printing on Special Media • Printing Letterhead and Preprinted Forms • Printing Envelopes • Printing Labels and Transparencies • Printing with Optional Accessories • Printing from the 500-s
Preparing for Printing Selecting Paper and Other Print Media HP LaserJet printers produce documents of excellent print quality. You can print on a variety of print media, such as paper (including recycled paper), envelopes, labels, overhead transparencies and custom sized media. Properties such as weight, grain, and moisture content are important factors affecting printer performance and output quality. Note To achieve the best possible print quality use only high quality, copier-grade paper.
Note All media sizes should be inserted lengthwise (vertically) into the printer. If you want to print horizontally (in landscape mode), make this selection through your software. Inserting paper horizontally may cause a paper jam. Printing on Standard Sizes of Paper The printer can print on standard sizes and types of media.
Media Input Options The printer comes with two standard paper trays. By default, the printer draws first from Tray 1. If Tray 1 is empty, the printer draws from Tray 2. (If the optional 500-Sheet Tray 3 is attached to the printer the print order will change. See “Printing from the 500-sheet Tray 3.”) Tray 1 Tray 1 (A) serves as a multipurpose input tray. • Tray 1 can hold up to 100 sheets of 20 lb. (75 g/m2) paper or up to 10 envelopes. • Tray 1 adjusts to hold a variety of both paper and envelope sizes.
A gauge on the front left of Tray 2 shows the media level in the tray. When the gauge is at the top, the tray is full. Figure 4-3 Optional Media Inputs You can also purchase other media inputs for the printer: A Optional 500-sheet Tray 3 Assembly: • Includes base unit and a universal paper tray (adjusts to legal, letter, A4, and executive paper sizes).
Loading Tray 2 Tray 2 holds about 250 sheets of 20 lb. (75 g/m2) paper. To load Tray 2: 1 Pull Tray 2 straight out of the printer. 2 Slide a stack of paper into the tray until the paper is in solid contact with the rear of the tray. Do not fill above the arrows on the left rear of the tray. Note See the sections on letterhead and duplex printing later in this chapter for proper media orientation for specific jobs.
Loading Tray 1 Tray 1 allows you to automatically feed up to 100 sheets of paper or manually feed one sheet at a time. Tray 1 can be used for standard and odd-sized papers, envelopes, labels, and transparencies. To load Tray 1: 1 Open Tray 1 by pulling down on the top center of the door. 2 Pull out the tray extension until it clicks into place. 3 Slide the paper width guide to the far right side of the tray. 4 Place paper in the tray.
Printing Tasks Stopping a Print Job A print job can be stopped from the [Job Cancel] button or from a software application. In either case, the printer prints the pages it received before you stopped the print job, then cancels the remainder of the job. Note Do not stop a print job from both the printer and the computer. Cancel the job from only one location. If the printer experiences an error, such as a paper jam, the error must be cleared before a print job can be canceled.
Manually Feeding Pages Occasionally (such as when printing transparencies), you may want the printer to pause between printing each page. The Manual Feed feature allows you to feed paper into the printer by hand rather than automatically being fed from one of the trays. Manual Feed should normally be set through a software application. If your software does not have this option, set Manual Feed through the printer control panel.
Reserving or Locking-out Trays You can reserve a tray to hold a designated size or type of media. For instance Tray 1 can be reserved to hold letterhead while Tray 2 holds regular paper. Another example would be to designate Tray 1 to hold envelopes, while Tray 2 is reserved for letterhead. Once the tray is reserved it will be locked-out of the automatic selection during printing. The printer will not draw from a reserved tray unless specifically requested to do so.
To reserve and lock out Trays: This procedure does the following: • Changes the configuration of Tray 1 from the primary printing source (TRAY 1=FIRST) to a reserved printing source (TRAY 1=CASSETTE), and specifies a media size. • Selects a size for Tray 1 from the control panel. Locking Tray 1 1 Press [Menu] until CONFIG MENU appears. 2 Press [Item] until TRAY 1=setting appears. 3 Press [- Value +] until TRAY 1=CASSETTE appears, then press [Select]. 4 Press [Item] until LOCK TRAY=NONE appears.
To print a document from a reserved tray: 1 In your software application select Print or Print Setup. 2 In the Source option select the reserved tray (for example, “Tray 1”). 3 Print the document. To print a multiple-page document from two trays: 1 In your software application find the Source option setting. This may be found under Page Setup, Print or Print Setup. Some software applications may not give the option of pre-selecting more than one source for the media.
Printing on Special Media Printing Letterhead and Preprinted Forms If letterhead and forms will be printed regularly, it may be useful to reserve and lock-out a tray for these special papers. If letterhead and form printing is only occasional, Tray 1 can be used to easily print these special papers. Regular Printing on Special Paper The HP LaserJet 5/5M printer can be set to recognize a paper source (such as Tray 1) as being reserved for letterhead, preprinted forms, or other type of special paper.
Occasional Printing on Special Paper Tray 1, by default, will be printed from first. This feature can be useful when printing an occasional multi-page job on more than one type of media. The following example demonstrates how to print the first page of a letter on letterhead (from Tray 1) and the following pages on regular paper (from Tray 2). 1 Place a sheet of preprinted letterhead in Tray 1, print-side-up, top edge in, (see “Letterhead Orientation” on the following page).
Tray 1 Letterhead Orientation Figure 4-5 Tray 1 letterhead orientation: print-side up, top edge forward. Tray 2 Letterhead Orientation 4 Tray 2 letterhead orientation: print-side down, bottom edge forward. Note Letterhead orientation is different when printing with a Duplex Unit. See “Printing with the Duplex Unit,” later in this chapter.
Printing Envelopes You can print envelopes from Tray 1 or from the optional Envelope Feeder. This section explains how to print envelopes from Tray 1 using your software application or the printer control panel. If you purchased the optional Envelope Feeder, see “Printing with the Envelope Feeder” later in this chapter (see the Envelope Feeder User’s Guide for detailed instructions).
To Load Envelopes into Tray 1: 1 Open Tray 1 by pulling down on the top center of the door. 2 Pull out the tray extension until it snaps into place. 3 Place up to 10 envelopes against the left side of the tray, print-side up, with the postage-end in (see illustration for orientation). Slide the stack of envelopes into the printer as far as it will go without forcing it. If the stack of envelopes jams while feeding into the printer try reducing the amount of envelopes in the tray.
Printing Labels and Transparencies Print labels and transparencies from Tray 1, rather than from Tray 2 or optional trays. Tray 1 has a straighter paper path, resulting in fewer paper jams. Note If labels and transparencies jam or multiple pages are fed at one time during printing try the following: • Fan the stack of labels or transparencies, allowing space between each sheet. • If problems persist, print one sheet at a time through Tray 1.
To Print Transparencies or Labels: 1 Open Tray 1 by pulling down on the top center of the door. 2 Pull out the tray extension until it clicks into place. 3 Place up to 8 mm of labels or transparencies print-side-up in Tray 1. Caution Do not load transparencies up to the arrow on the paper guide tabs. The stack of transparencies shouldn’t reach higher than 2 mm below the arrow. 4 In your software’s print setup, specify paper size and Tray 1 for the paper source.
Printing with Optional Accessories Printing from the 500-sheet Tray 3 An optional 500-Sheet Lower Assembly is available for your printer. It consists of a base and a 500-sheet paper tray. Your printer rests on top of the Tray 3 base. Note See the Set-up Guide included with the 500-Sheet Lower Assembly for installation and setup instructions. Figure 4-7 Tray 3 adjusts for letter, legal, A4, and executive paper and holds about 500 sheets of 20 lb. (75 g/m2) paper.
When an optional Tray 3 Assembly is installed, it replaces Tray 2 as the second default source in the printing order. As long as Tray 1 settings have not been changed the printer will now print on media in the following order: Media Source Default Printing Priority Tray 1 1 (first) Tray 3 2 (second) Tray 2 3 (third) For example, assuming all paper sizes are the same, if you send a job to the printer and Tray 1 is empty, the printer prints the job from Tray 3 unless you specify otherwise.
To Load Paper into the Optional Tray 3: 1 Pull the tray straight out of the printer. 2 Adjust the tray length guide for the desired paper size. 3 Slide up to 500 sheets of paper into the tray until the front end of the stack fits against the adjustable paper length bracket in the back of the tray. Do not fill above the arrows in the middle of the paper length bracket. Note For best results, always fill the tray completely when loading paper.
Note Step 6 is only necessary if you are changing the size of the paper or the weight of the paper in Tray 3. Tray 3 comes preajusted for 20 lb. (75 g/m2) letter sized paper. If you are not changing paper size or weight, skip to Step 7. 6 Lightly push on the stack of paper to make sure it moves freely up and down. Release the tray width guide if necessary. Adjust the tray spring tension by turning the tension knob until the adjustable arrow lines up with the stationary arrow.
Printing with the Duplex Unit (2-Sided Printing) With an optional duplex unit, a print job can be printed on both sides of a sheet of paper (this is known as duplexing). See “Accessories and Options” in Chapter 1 for part numbers and ordering information. Specifying a Duplex Setup To use the Duplex Unit a 2-sided setup must be selected in the HP Printer Driver. The drivers, can be reached from the Print dialog box in any MS Windows application.
Paper orientation options for duplex (2-sided) printing The four paper orientation options are shown and explained on this page. Figure 4-10 A Long-edge landscape orientation This kind of layout is often used in accounting, data processing, and spreadsheet applications. With this setup, every other printed image is oriented upside-down so that pages can be flipped through, as for a calendar. B Long-edge portrait orientation This is the conventional layout used.
Tray 1 Letterhead Orientation for 2-Sided Printing Figure 4-11 Tray 1 orientation for 2-sided printing: print-side down, bottom edge forward. Tray 2 Letterhead Orientation for 2-Sided Printing Figure 4-12 4-26 Printing Tray 2 orientation for 2-sided printing: print-side up, top edge forward.
Printing with the Envelope Feeder An optional Envelope Feeder is available for the printer. It holds up to 75 envelopes and prints up to nine envelopes per minute. See “Accessories and Options” in Chapter 1 for ordering information. Note See the “Envelope Feeder User’s Guide” included with the Envelope Feeder for complete installation and setup instructions.
Inserting the Envelope Feeder 1 Turn the printer off Caution Always turn the printer off before inserting or removing the envelope feeder 2 Open Tray 1 3 Remove the black, envelope feeder access cover. Grasp the top handle (A), pull it firmly downward (B), and gently pull it toward you (C). 4 Insert the envelope feeder into the printer as far as it will go. Select the desired envelope size using the following steps: A Turn the printer on. B Press [Menu] until CONFIG MENU appears.
Loading Envelopes in the Envelope Feeder Note Only print on approved envelopes. See “Printing Envelopes” earlier in this chapter and “Envelopes” in Appendix A. 1 Lift up the pressure plate (A). It will stay in a vertical position. Pull the extension tray out (B). 2 Squeeze the release lever against the envelope side guide (A) and slide the side guide all the way to the right (B). 3 Load envelopes into the Envelope Feeder with the print-side up, the sealing flap down, and the postage end in.
Printing with the Infrared Serial Port An optional HP infrared (IR) adapter is available for the HP LaserJet 5/5M printer. This adapter is compliant with the specifications determined by the Infrared Data Association (IrDA). The HP IR adapter works by transmitting data similarly to a serial interface but without the cable. Data transmission occurs at speeds up to 115 k bits per second.
To print using the HP Infrared Adapter: 1 Make sure that the printer is in READY mode. 2 Align your laptop computer (or other portable equipment) that is equipped with an IrDA-compliant IR window within 2 to 3 feet (1 m) of the HP IR adapter on the printer and at an angle of +/- 15 degrees to ensure an adequate connection for printing.
3 Send the print job. The status light above the IR adapter should turn on. If not, realign the adapter with the IR port on the sending device, resend the print job, and keep the equipment within the range of operation during printing. 4 If you have to move the equipment, for example, to add paper, make sure it remains within the range of operation to maintain the connection. If the connection is interrupted before your print job is complete, the IR adapter status light will turn off.
5 PostScript Printing Introduction The PostScript language is available as an option for the HP LaserJet 5 printer and comes standard with the HP LaserJet 5M printer. Chapter 3 focused on using the printer in the PCL mode. Some tasks are performed differently when printing in the PostScript mode.
Preparing for PostScript Printing This chapter assumes a PostScript language SIMM is installed in your printer (see Appendix D, “Printer Memory.”). Your PostScript language SIMM contains genuine PostScript Level 2 software from Adobe. It is backward-compatible with earlier versions of PostScript software. Additional requirements for PostScript printing: • A PostScript printer driver. • Sufficient printer memory (printing 600-dpi and duplex printing requires more memory in PostScript than in PCL).
Printer Memory and PostScript Printing The HP LaserJet 5M printer comes with Adobe PostScript Level 2 and 6 MBytes of installed memory. Table 5-1 shows the total memory required to print a letter/A4 or legal size page and to use the I/O Buffering and Resource Saving features. (For an explanation of I/O Buffering and Resource Saving, see “How Your Printer Uses Memory” in Appendix D.
Printing a Legal Page in PostScript Most legal-size pages will print at 600 dpi. To print a legal page at 300 dpi, your printer must have at least 6 MBytes of installed memory. (The HP LaserJet 5M comes with 6 MB.) Printing 600 dpi legal-size pages requires at least 6 MBytes of installed memory. To check how much memory you have print a PS Config Page (see later in this chapter).
Switching Printer Languages (Personalities) The HP LaserJet 5 printer comes with the PCL 6 printer personality or operating language, which gives you 45 built-in scalable fonts. You can also add a PostScript SIMM (Single In-Line Memory Module) which gives you Adobe’s 35 Type 1 fonts. If more than one printer language is installed, your printer is set by default to switch automatically between languages as it receives printing jobs.
Control Panel Differences with PostScript As explained in Chapter 3, “Using the Printer Control Panel,” pressing [Menu] provides access to menus, one after another. Most menus and items apply to all installed personalities. Only those that specifically apply to PostScript are described in this chapter. The Menu Map in Chapter 3 lists the placement of the PostScript options in the control panel system of menus (see the shaded entries).
PostScript Menu When PostScript is installed, a PostScript language menu is added to the control panel system of menus. Table 5-2 PostScript Menu Items Item Options Explanation PS FONTS LIST None A printed list of PostScript fonts is available by pressing [Select] when this item is displayed. PRT PS ERRS OFF* ON When this option is set to ON, the printer prints a page that describes errors the PostScript interpreter encounters. No PostScript error messages display on the control panel.
PostScript Fonts List The PostScript Fonts List has samples of the 35 built-in PostScript language fonts (see Figure 5-1 on the following page). The PostScript Fonts List displays only the 35 PostScript language fonts, with print samples for each font. The list will not display the printer’s internal or downloaded PCL fonts or any PostScript language downloaded fonts. The characters shown on the PostScript Fonts List are printed in only one size.
Figure 5-1 PostScript Fonts List 5 PostScript Printing EN PostScript Printing 5-9
Menu Items Affected by PostScript Most PostScript menu items are similar to those for the PCL mode. Those that are different are listed in the following tables. For menu items common to PostScript and PCL, see Chapter 3, “Using the Printer Control Panel.” Table 5-3 Printing Menu Differences Item Options Explanation PAPER None These settings are ignored because of the way PostScript formats pages.
Table 5-5 Configuration Menu Differences Item Options Explanation AUTO CONT n/a PostScript language errors will not appear on the control panel display. Table 5-6 Memory Configuration Menu Differences Item Options Explanation IO BUFFER n/a With 6 MBytes of memory (12 MBytes for duplex), the I/O buffering option appears. RESRCSAVE n/a With 7 MBytes of memory (13 MBytes for duplex), Resource Saving appears.
PostScript Configuration Page The PostScript configuration page (the PS CONFIG PAGE item in the Test Menu) is shown in Figure 5-2 on the following page. Table 5-7 PostScript Configuration Page Printout Items A Settings: Current printer control panel default settings and product-specific information such as Printer Name and PostScript version. PostScript-specific settings include (but are not limited to): HalftoneType: The current halftone type.

6 Adjusting Print Quality Introduction This chapter explains special tasks to be performed occasionally, in order to adjust print quality using the control panel. These include: • Choosing print resolution • Fine-tuning print quality • EconoMode printing Many of these functions can also be performed using the software that came with your printer. Refer to Chapter 2, “Printing Software Overview” or the online help files associated with the software for more information.
Choosing Print Resolution The default resolution setting for the printer is 600 dpi (dots per inch). This setting offers the best print quality. The resolution setting can be adjusted to 300 dpi from the RESOLUTION item in the Job Menu (see Chapter 3). To take best advantage of 600 dpi printing, use the internal fonts (or accessory scalable fonts) and the software printer drivers designed for the printer. Note If possible, set print resolution from your software application.
6 Fine-Tuning Print Quality Adjusting Print Density Print density is a measure of the darkness of print on the page. Print density settings range from 1 to 5, with 1 producing the lightest print, and 5 the darkest. By default, print density is set to 3. Note Print density is affected by the Resolution Enhancement setting. To adjust print density from the control panel: 1 Press [Menu] until CONFIG MENU appears. 2 Press [Item] until DENSITY=setting appears.
Enhancing Resolution Resolution Enhancement technology (REt) refines the print quality of characters and graphics by smoothing the fine gradations along the angles and curves of the printed image. Figure 6-1 shows two magnified images: the left one shows Resolution Enhancement set to OFF; the right one shows it set to MEDIUM, the default. You can also select LIGHT or DARK. Figure 6-1 Note The REt setting should normally be set through a software application.
Checking the Effect of a REt Setting Figure 6-2 Harmonizing Print Density and REt Settings It is suggested that both print density and REt settings be adjusted at the same time since they affect each other. To harmonize print density and REt settings: 1 Make sure printer resolution is set to 600 dpi. 2 Select a print density setting. (A default setting of 3 usually produces a uniform gray REt block on the self test printout.) 3 Print a self test and examine the Resolution Enhancement block.
EconoMode Printing Saving Toner with EconoMode EconoMode lowers printing costs by reducing the amount of toner on the printed page. EconoMode also substantially reduces print quality. The result is similar to the draft mode found on some dot matrix printers. When set to ON, the printed image is lighter (like A), but still readable. EconoMode is a good choice for printing rough drafts. (B represents the default OFF setting for high quality regular printing.
7 Solving Printer Problems Introduction This chapter helps you troubleshoot printer problems in the following areas: • • • • • • Clearing Paper Jams Resetting the Printer Testing the Printer Improving Print Quality Understanding Printer Messages Troubleshooting Checklist Calling for Help If you try all the suggestions given in this manual and still need assistance, call the authorized Hewlett-Packard dealer where you purchased your printer.
Clearing Paper Jams If a REMOVE PAPER JAM or REMOVE DUPLEX JAM message appears in the display panel, look for jammed paper in any of the locations indicated in Figure 7-1. (This message may also be displayed if the rear door is not closed correctly.) If paper jams are a recurring problem, see “Repeated Paper Jams” at the end of this section. Paper jams occur most often when: • Paper trays are not correctly loaded (see Chapter 4). • Your print media does not meet the specifications listed in Appendix A.

Do not touch the fusing area, it gets hot! 2 Open the rear door of the fusing assembly, if necessary. 3 Pull the jammed paper from the fusing assembly. 4 If necessary, pull the paper out of the output bin from the top edge.
Optional Tray 3 Paper Jam 1 Partially remove Tray 3. 2 Carefully remove jammed paper and any pages in the tray that are damaged. and remove jammed paper. (You should not need to open or remove the optional duplex unit, if one is installed.) Note If there are frequent paper jams or multi-feed problems in the Tray 3 area, see “Printing from the 500-Sheet Tray 3” in Chapter 4 and “Repeated Paper Jams” at the end of this section.
Optional Duplex Unit Paper Jams 1 Remove Tray 2. 2 Open the front access cover of the duplex unit and remove any paper. Also, remove any paper protruding from the rear of the duplex unit. 3 Open the rear duplex door and remove any paper. Close rear duplex door (it should latch when completely closed). Close the duplex unit’s front access cover and replace Tray 2.
Repeated Paper Jams Situation Solution General repeated paper jam problems. 1. 2. 3. If jams persist after you have cleaned the printer, check the media specifications and verify that you are loading the tray correctly (see Chapter 4). You may need to replace the Tray 1 Pickup Roller as described in Chapter 8. Tray 2 has repeated jams. If jams persist after you have cleaned the printer, check the media specifications and verify that you are loading the tray correctly (see Chapter 4).
Resetting the Printer Reset the printer with caution. You can lose buffered page data or printer configuration data when you reset. Only use it in the following circumstances: • You want to restore the default printer settings. • Communication between the printer and computer is interrupted. • You are using both the serial and parallel I/O ports, and one of the ports is having problems. Four different resets are available through the RESETS MENU on the control panel.
Testing the Printer Self Tests Self tests can be printed to determine the current printer settings, options, and print quality. (If PostScript is installed, you can also print PostScript tests. See Chapter 5 for more information.) 1 Press [Menu] until TEST MENU appears. 2 Press [Item] until PRINT SELF TEST is displayed. 3 Press [Select] to print the test. Note EN If you select CONT SELF TEST, the printer prints self test pages continuously until you press [Job Cancel].

Improving Print Quality General print quality problems can be solved by following the checklist below. Following the checklist are specific samples of common print quality problems. If the listed solutions do not work, see the “HP Support” pages at the front of this manual for additional sources of assistance. Print Quality Checklist • • • • • Redistribute the toner in the toner cartridge (see Chapter 8). Clean the inside of the printer (see Chapter 8). Adjust the print density (see Chapter 6).
Vertical Lines If sharp black vertical streaks appear on the page, the photosensitive drum inside the toner cartridge has probably been scratched. Replace the toner cartridge. If smeared black vertical streaks appear, the fuser may be bad. Inspect the rollers for scratches and excessive wear and, if necessary, replace the fusing assembly as described in “User-Replaceable Parts” in Chapter 8. 7 Toner Smear If toner on the paper is loose or can be wiped off easily, your fuser may be damaged.
Vertical Repetitive Defects If marks repeatedly appear on the printed side of the page: • The toner cartridge is damaged. The circumference of the toner cartridge drum is 3 3/4 inches (95 mm). If a repetitive mark occurs every 3 3/4 inches (95 mm) on the page, replace the toner cartridge. • The developer roller is defective. If a repetitive mark occurs every 2 inches (51 mm) on the page, replace the toner cartridge. • The charger roller in the toner cartridge is defective.
Understanding Printer Messages The following tables list printer messages, their meanings, and recommended actions. Printer messages are divided into four categories: • • • • Status messages Warning messages Error messages Service messages 7 Status messages are displayed when the printer is ready and does not have any error or warning messages. The table lists the messages in alphabetical order. Message Description Recommended Action CLEARING MEMORY This message is displayed during a memory reset.

Press Job Cancel to stop the test. PRINTING DEMO PAGE Printing a Demonstration Page. No action required. PRINTING FLASH PAGE This message is displayed while the flash directory page is being formatted and printed. No action required.
Warning Messages Warning messages indicate that something has gone wrong with the printer. The problem is not serious enough to prevent printing. The table lists the messages in alphabetical order. INSUFFICIENT MEMORY, JOB CLEARED This warning means that the requested Press [Go] to return to READY. language for the print job did not have sufficient printer memory. The job will not print and will be cleared from memory.
Error Messages Error messages communicate errors that prevent printing. All errors in this category (with the exception of 41.3 UNEXPECTED PAPER SIZE) are affected by the AUTO CONTINUE setting. If set to ON when an error occurs, the error message will display and the printer will go offline for ten seconds before returning to an on line state. If AUTO CONTINUE is set to OFF, the error message will remain on the display until the Go key is pushed.
Message Description 41.3 UNEXPECTED This error most commonly occurs during one of PAPER SIZE the following situations: 1. When the paper size knob on a 250- or 500-sheet universal tray does not match the installed paper size, 2. If the tension adjustment knob on the optional Tray 3 has not been set, 3. If the printer picks two sheets of paper at once. Recommended Action 1. Ensure that the paper size knob is set for the installed paper size.
Service Messages Service messages communicate a failure condition with the printer. Most instances can be cleared by following the Recommended Action column (usually resetting the printer, or turning the printer off and back on). If a service message continues, contact your dealer or HP service representative. Message Description 50 FUSER ERROR, The printer identified an internal service error.
Recommended Action 62.[x] SERVICE X=0 - 4 The printer identified a problem while checking its memory. “X” refers to the device the printer was checking when it encountered the error. 0: Internal Memory 1–4: SIMM Slot If the printer contains a SIMM memory board, switch the printer off.

8 Maintaining and Adjusting the Printer Introduction Your printer requires minimum routine maintenance.
Managing the Toner Cartridge Toner Cartridge Life The life of your toner cartridge depends on the amount of toner your print jobs require. When you print text, a toner cartridge lasts an average of 6,800 pages, printed at 5% coverage (a typical full-page business letter is about 5% coverage). This assumes that the print density setting is in the middle range (set to 3 - see “Adjusting Print Density” in Chapter 6).
Clearing the TONER LOW Message When the level in the toner cartridge gets low, a TONER LOW message appears in the printer control panel display. You can either rotate the cartridge back and forth to redistribute the toner (see “Extending Toner Cartridge Life” on the following page) or replace the cartridge. If you continue to use the cartridge, the print will become lighter and white streaks will appear.
Extending Toner Cartridge Life You can extend the life of your toner cartridge and temporarily re-establish print quality by redistributing the toner: 1 Open the printer’s top cover and remove the toner cartridge. 2 Rotate the toner cartridge back and forth as shown to redistribute toner. 3 Reinsert the toner cartridge and close the top cover. The TONER LOW message may still appear, but the print quality should improve.
Cleaning the Printer To maintain print quality, thoroughly clean your printer: • Every time you change the toner cartridge. • Whenever print quality problems occur. Clean the outside of the printer with a lightly water-dampened cloth. Clean the inside with only a dry, lint-free cloth. Observe the warnings and cautions that follow the cleaning tasks on the following page. Caution To avoid permanent damage to the toner cartridge, do not use ammoniabased cleaners on or around your printer.
Printer Cleaning Tasks Before you begin these steps, turn the printer off and unplug the power cord. 1 Open the printer top cover and remove the toner cartridge. 2 With a dry lint-free cloth, wipe any residue off the paper access cover (it has a green handle) and the adjacent silver metal strip. Caution Do not touch the transfer roller (black sponge-rubber roller shown in Figure 8-1) with your fingers. Skin oils on the roller can cause print quality problems.
Saving Power with the PowerSave Feature To reduce the amount of power it consumes, your printer has a PowerSave feature. PowerSave shuts down the fuser after the printer has been idle for a specified amount of time. The PowerSave feature is both adjustable and optional. You can set PowerSave to start after the printer has been idle 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, or 3 hours, or you can turn PowerSave OFF. By default, PowerSave is ON and the amount of idle time is set to 30 minutes.
To change the PowerSave setting: You can change this setting using the software that came with your printer (see software and online helps) or through the printer control panel by following these steps: 1 Press [Menu] until PRINTING MENU appears. 2 Press [Item] until PWRSAVE=setting appears. 3 Press - Value +] until the setting you want appears. The options are Off, 15 min., 30 min., 1 hr., 2 hrs., or 3 hrs. 4 Press [Select] to save your selection. An asterisk (*) appears next to your selection.
User-Replaceable Parts During the printer warranty period, Hewlett-Packard recommends that only HP-authorized service technicians service your printer. After the warranty period, some worn parts can be replaced by the owner. See Chapter 7, “Solving Printer Problems,” to troubleshoot problems that may be related to worn user-replaceable parts. WARNING! Switch the printer off and unplug before replacing parts. Failure to do so may result in personal injury or damage to the printer.

Use two people to lift it. 2 Lift the the printer from the Tray 3 Assembly. 3 Pinch the retaining clip on the right end of the roller with your right hand while sliding the roller off the shaft with your left hand (discard the used roller). 4 Slip the new roller onto the shaft and rotate it until properly aligned.
A Media Specifications Introduction You can use a variety of paper and other print media successfully with the HP LaserJet 5/5M printer using the guidelines in this appendix. Media that does not meet these guidelines may increase the incidence of paper jams, cause premature wear to the printer, and contribute to repair costs.
Paper and Preprinted Forms For best results, use conventional 20 lb (75 g/m2) xerographic paper. Make sure the paper is of good quality and free of cuts, nicks, tears, spots, loose particles, dust, wrinkles, voids, and curled or bent edges. Heavy Paper Stock See the specific requirements given in Chapter 4 for each paper tray.

Adhesive Labels Use only labels recommended for use in laser printers. To purchase labels, consult your HP authorized dealer or see the HP Support pages at the front of this manual for more information. Label Construction When selecting labels, consider the quality of each component: • Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at the 392° F (200° C) temperatures encountered in the printer’s fusing process. None of the adhesive should be exposed between the labels.
Overhead Transparencies Overhead transparencies used in HP LaserJet 5 and 5M printers must be able to withstand the 392° F (200° C) temperature encountered in the printer’s fusing process. Caution Use only overhead transparencies recommended for use in laser printers, such as HP or 3M overhead transparency film. Ordering Transparencies To purchase transparency film, consult your HP authorized dealer or see the HP Support pages at the front of this manual for more ordering information.
Envelopes You can print many types of envelopes with your printer. Some envelope styles perform better than others because their construction is better suited to laser printing. Envelope Construction Envelope construction is very critical. Envelope fold lines can very considerably, not only between manufacturers but also within a box from the same manufacturer. Successful printing on envelopes is very dependent upon the quality of the media.
Caution Never use envelopes with clasps, snaps, windows, coated linings, self-stick adhesives, or other synthetic materials. These items can severely damage your printer. Never try to print on both sides of an envelope. Jamming and printer damage can result. Before you load envelopes in Tray 1, check to make sure they are regular in shape and undamaged. Also, check to see that the envelopes are not stuck together.

C-10 Specifications & Regulatory Information EN
D Printer Memory Determining Needed Printer Memory The amount of printer memory you need depends on what you are printing and the printer language you are using. For example, PCL is compact and efficient, so you can print most text and graphics at 600 dpi without adding memory to your printer. You might want to add memory to your printer if you commonly print complex graphics, use many downloaded typefaces, or print complex documents in PostScript.
How Your Printer Uses Memory Your printer uses memory in several ways: • Stores the printer’s personality or operating language software (such as PCL and PostScript). • Receives, holds, and processes data from incoming print jobs. • Manages downloaded resources (such as symbol sets, macros, and patterns or PostScript fonts, forms, and patterns when PostScript is installed). Optional Flash SIMM The Optional Flash SIMM can be used to permanently store downloaded fonts and forms in the printer.
Keeping Downloaded Resources in Memory When only the PCL personality is installed, the printer uses all available memory to maintain downloaded resources. When two or more personalities are installed, the printer reserves a portion of memory for each personality’s resources. The printer deletes downloaded resources from its memory when you change personalities or resolutions.
To determine how much memory to allocate to a personality You are most likely to want to change the amount of memory if you download an unusually large number of fonts, or if your printer is in a shared environment. The minimum amount of memory you can allocate to Resource Saving is 400 KBytes each for PCL and PostScript. (The minimum amount may be different for other printer personalities.) This needs to be configured only if PostScript or another personality is installed.
8 Press [Item] until either PS MEM=400K or PCL MEM=400K appears, then press [- Value +] until the number you determined in Step 6 appears. Press [Select] to save your selection. An asterisk (*) appears next to your selection in the display. 9 Press [Go] to exit menus. 10 Repeat Step 5. Note The printer’s I/O Buffer holds a print job in progress, freeing up computer memory. This allows the user to continue operating the computer without waiting for the print job to finish.
SIMM Board Installation The HP LaserJet 5 printer has four SIMM (Single In-line Memory Module) slots. The HP LaserJet 5M printer has three available SIMM slots (the fourth is used for the PostScript SIMM). Use the SIMM slots to install additional printer memory and printer languages (such as the Adobe PostScript language). For the HP LaserJet 5 printer, you can add up to 64 MBytes of memory (4 MBytes are standard). For the HP LaserJet 5M, you can add up to 40 MBytes of memory (6 MBytes are standard).
Installing SIMMs printer off and unplug the power cord. 2 Rotate the printer so that you have easy access to the right and back sides of the printer. 3 Loosen the captive screw in the upper left corner of the back panel with a Phillips #2 screwdriver. The screw does not need to be completely removed from the printer. 4 Slide the right side panel towards the back of the printer (approximately an inch (25 mm)). 5 The panel should now easily open, exposing the SIMM door.
6 Loosen the captive screw holding the SIMM door with a Phillips #2 screwdriver. Open the SIMM door. 7 Note the four SIMM slots (a PostScript SIMM will already be installed in a slot in the HP LaserJet 5M). For easiest installation, fill the slots from right to left, starting with slot 1 (see inset). 8 Remove the SIMM board from the antistatic package. Hold the board with your forefingers on the side edges and your thumbs against the back edge.
Caution It is important to correctly align the right side panel and tighten the screw on the back panel before attempting to move the printer. Testing a SIMM Board Use the procedures below to print a self test to verify SIMM board installation. Procedures are given for both memory and PostScript SIMMs. 2 After warm up, READY should appear in the control panel display. If a printer message appears, see “Troubleshooting a SIMM Board” on the following page.
PostScript SIMM Use these instructions to verify your PostScript SIMM installation: 1 Plug in the power cord and turn the printer on. 2 After warm up READY should appear in the control panel display. If a printer message appears, see “Troubleshooting a SIMM Board” next in this appendix. 3 Press [Menu] until PS MENU appears in the display. If this message appears, your printer recognizes that the PostScript language is installed. If PS MENU does not appear, check the SIMM installation.
Checking Procedure To check memory for the 62.x ERROR message, follow the procedure below: 1 Switch the printer off, then back on (data will be lost). 2 If the error message appears again, switch your printer off and verify that the SIMM board is installed correctly, then switch your printer on. 3 If the error message appears again, switch printer off, remove the If the error message does not appear, the problem is in SIMM memory. Call your HP service representative.

E Serial Pin-out and Cabling Configuration Serial Communication Serial communication is simply the transmission of data one bit at a time. With just one bit to transmit at a time, data can be transferred with a simple electrical circuit consisting of only two wires. In this fashion an eight bit byte is transmitted one bit at a time and the individual bits are reassembled into the original byte on the receiving end. Bit transmission occurs from the least significant bit to the most significant bit.
Hewlett-Packard offers the following serial cables and adapter for use with the HP 5/5M Printers: HP Part Number Description C2932A 9 to 9-pin M/F RS-232 Serial Cable, 3m C2933A 9 to 25-pin M/F RS-232 Serial Cable, 3m C2809A 9 to 25-pin M/F Serial Cable Adapter With the C2809A serial cable adapter installed on the printer you can connect a 25-pin cable connector to the printer.
