Factory-Level Diagnostic Manual: HP Color LaserJet 5500 / 5500n / 5500dn / 5500dtn / 5500hdn Service Manual (416 Pages) Service-Catalog

Diagnostic-Area: HP Color LaserJet 5500 Series (C9656A/C7131A/C9657A/C9658A/C9659A) covering 2004-2008 production models // Design-Core: Color laser printer / Electrophotographic transfer logic // Diagnostic-Area: Complete specifications provided across seven technical chapters.

Documentation Section Coverage Areas Technical Reference
Printer Description Model identification, regulatory compliance, environmental specifications Complete specifications provided
Installation Procedures Power requirements, network configuration, driver installation Documented across Chapter 3
Operational Theory Engine control systems, laser/scanner operation, image formation processes See Chapter 5 specifications
Component Removal Field-replaceable assemblies, service procedures, torque requirements Complete removal sequences documented
Diagnostic Protocols Error code interpretation, sensor testing, calibration procedures Comprehensive troubleshooting documented

Reference chapters include printer description, examining service approach protocols, installation and configuration procedures, maintenance schedules, theory of operation analysis, and removal and replacement techniques, documenting troubleshooting methodologies.

The document provides systematic operation data for HP Color LaserJet 5500 series printers across 416 pages. Technical notes are provided for electrostatic transfer/transport belt maintenance including 120,000-page service intervals and developing cylinder disengaging mechanisms. Adjustment procedures are detailed for color plane registration calibration using the integrated detection unit and horizontal registration sensor assembly. The manual documents torque specifications for the drum drive assembly to ensure proper cyclic stress resistance.

Quality checks are addressed for image stabilization control through density calibration protocols measuring halftone output across cyan, yellow, magenta, and black cartridge assemblies. Timing procedures are documented for fuser temperature regulation between 152°C and 185°C depending on media type, with induction heating coil specifications and thermistor monitoring systems. The fuser power supply section documents amperage control signals and temperature detection voltage thresholds for main and sub thermistor assemblies.

Cataloging major assemblies into pickup/feed systems, the documentation establishes paper path sensors including PS6 output bin detection, PS7 fuser delivery monitoring, PS8 inlet detection, and horizontal registration/transparency sensor arrays. The formatter section documents 400 MHz RISC processor architecture with DIMM expansion capabilities supporting 96 MB to 416 MB memory configurations, PJL command interpretation, and bidirectional IEEE-1284 parallel interface protocols operating at high-speed data transfer rates.
