Models Covered & Key Technical Specifications
HP Color LaserJet 3500, 3500n, 3700, 3700n, 3700dn, 3700dtn (Q1319A, Q1320A, Q1321A, Q1322A, Q1323A, Q1324A) — 2003 Comprehensive Digest & Collection Sourcebook Module.
- Established Coupling Torques: HP Color LaserJet 3500 series delivers 12 ppm (pages per minute) in both monochrome and color printing corresponds to Matrix.
- Reference Twist Specifications: For optimal performance, HP Color LaserJet 3700 series is calibrated to 16 ppm in both monochrome and color printing Standards.
- Essential Holding Capacity: Memory capacity determines 64 MB of SDRAM for HP 3500 base configuration, expandable up to 448 MB for HP 3700 series Margin.
- Baseline Load Capacity: The printer sets 45,000 pages per month for HP Color LaserJet 3500 series and 55,000 pages per month for HP Color LaserJet 3700 series Protocol.
- Integral Cycle Rate: Physical weight specifications define 36.6 kg (80.52 lbs) for HP Color LaserJet 3500 series with print cartridges, and 37.8 kg (83.16 lbs) for HP Color LaserJet 3700 series Architecture.
- Specific Torque Data: Electrical specifications dictate 100–127 V (+/-10%) or 220–240 V (+/-10%) at 50–60 Hz (+/- 2 Hz), with minimum circuit capacity of 5.3 A for 110-volt models and 3 A for 220-volt models Norms.

| Identifier | Value | Framework |
|---|---|---|
| Document Overview | Service Manual | Complete specifications provided |
| Print Cartridges | Four-color system (CYMK) | Replacement procedures documented |
| Transfer Unit Components | ITB assembly with rollers | Maintenance cycles included |
| Fuser Assembly | Ceramic heater system | Temperature control data provided |
| Power Supply Systems | Low/High voltage circuits | Voltage specifications documented |
| Paper Path Mechanisms | Multiple feed configurations | Jam detection protocols included |
| Laser/Scanner System | Four-unit assembly | Optical alignment procedures provided |
| Control Systems | DC controller and formatter | Signal interface documented |
The documentation provides guidance on printer configurations, encompasses installation procedures, details troubleshooting protocols, references diagnostic menus, and covers removal-replacement sequences.
Wiring diagrams are provided for DC controller connections, high-voltage power distribution, laser driver circuits, and motor control systems. The manual documents engine control sequences including primary charging bias generation, developing bias application, transfer roller engagement mechanisms, and fuser temperature regulation. Specifications include electrical requirements for 100-127V and 220-240V configurations, environmental operating ranges between 10-27°C, and duty cycle ratings of 45,000 pages monthly for 3500 series and 55,000 pages for 3700 series models.
Complete assembly diagrams identify location and function of sixteen sensors (PS1-PS16), five solenoids (SL1-SL5), three clutches (CL1-CL3), six motors and fans (M1-M5, FAN1), and six printed circuit boards. The manual provides part identification through alphanumeric codes and exploded-view illustrations. Removal procedures follow systematic disassembly sequences requiring Phillips #2 screwdriver, needle-nose pliers, and ESD protection equipment. Reassembly notes accompany critical installation steps for alignment-dependent components.
Theory of operation chapters explain electrostatic latent image formation through nine-step print process blocks: primary charging of photosensitive drums, laser beam exposure creating charge patterns, contact development method applying negatively-charged toner, primary transfer to intermediate transfer belt, secondary transfer to media, separation via static elimination, ceramic heater fuser operation, ITB cleaning with waste toner collection, and drum cleaning blade systems. The document includes video interface signal timing diagrams, scanner motor phase control algorithms, color misregistration detection patterns, and image stabilization calibration procedures.
Troubleshooting sections reference flowcharts for power-on diagnostics, paper jam location identification across ten detection zones, and systematic isolation procedures for formatter communication failures, engine control malfunctions, and image quality defects including repetitive pattern analysis using photosensitive drum circumference calculations.
The manual documents torque specifications for mechanical assemblies to ensure proper component alignment retention.
