I get an error when powers up Page too complex.

I can clear the error but the printer will not communicate with any pc. I think I have a firmware issue but cannot get the update to apply to the printer. I have tried to hard reset and that doesn't help either. HELP! The printer initializes and then calibrates immediately prior to displaying the page too complex message

SOURCE: Error Message "Page too Complex"

Hi Sccfire, This apparently is a fairly common problem with the 2800 series printer and associated with connection to a PC using USB. It can only be overcome by manually configuring the printer?s USB port to work in standard mode rather than at high-speed USB2.0 mode which probably won?t be to much of a problem. Here is a link from a support page on HP?s site that should walk you through the process: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?objectID=c00506095 Let us know how it goes and please don?t forget to rate the posting.

SOURCE: HP LaserJet 2840: Page 'Too Complex'

Description
The device could not print the current page because of its complexity.

Recommended action
Press ENTER to clear the message.
Allow the device to finish the job, or press CANCEL to cancel the job.
Lower the USB speed on the product by turning off "High Speed USB". Following are instructions on how to do this from the Secondary Service Menu:
To access the Secondary Service Menu press the Menu button.
Now press the #2 button and use the < arrow to navigate to the High Speed USB selection.
Press Enter and then use the arrow key to go to Off and press Enter again.
Press the Cancel button twice to exit the Secondary Service Menu.

h. Turn the unit off and then on by using the power button on the control panel, continue with the installation/setup of the unit.

1. If the error is still there, then perform the power cycle.

Try this steps only once if it works then it is good, if not get the printer replaced through HP if it is warranty it would be replaced free, if not you may opt for Out Of Warranty upgrade options where you may get a good discount.

SOURCE: Printer message- Page too complex

Other than the memory issue, this could also happen due to absence of post script drivers which are not a part of the software that you may have installed.
You can download the post script driver for this printer at the link below. Just select the Operating system that you are using and download and install the Post Script driver.

Error Code 49:4C02

this is a communication error, often caused by a `corrupt' print job, or printing things off the internet with complex non-standard languages.
If you unplug the USB or network cable and power cycle the printer, and the error goes away, that is usually the problem.
You can usually isolate it to a specific job, like printing an email.
The problem can also be the network card (if installed).

79 error

79:xx Error- general firmware error- look at this fault the same way you look at windows blue screen of death - theres usually noting wrong apart from corrupt data in a print job- disconnect the printer from all network sources cycle the power with no network connection to clear fault then clear all print queues from the workstation (PC) before reconnecting network. also you might want to try a config page print test before reconnecting network..
if unfortunately the printer will not come to ready when the network has been removed, then the formatter is likely to be the cause .

Error 79;04 comes up saying the power is off. We have tried turning the power off for several minutes but when we put it back on have the same problem.

Unplug any USB or network cables from the printer and try to power cycle. This error indicates a problem with the firmware on the printer and if it restarts without any cables attached there is a chance that you will be able to download the newest firmware to the printer. If it restarts, clear any print jobs from the queue and then reconnect the communication cable. Then down load the current firmware from HP and install it. This should solve the problem.

How do i download firmware for a 900 firmware error - lexmark 540n

Before you download firmware, the 900 error usually indicates a software or communications problem. Please try to do the following.

  • Clear all jobs in print queue then turn on the printer and see if the error returns
  • If the error does not return, try to print a test page from the Test Menu
  • If the test page prints correctly, the printer's hardware is most likely working correctly. The source of the problem is probably outside the base printer.
