HP Color LaserJet 3500, 3550, and 3700 Series Printers - 59.99.00 Error Displayed on the Control Panel Issue

When faced with a 59.99 error, we have found additional ways to solve the issue since the service manual was written.
Error: 59.99.00 Description: An error occurred in the secondary transfer engaging mechanism. Solution

Follow the troubleshooting steps below:

1. Fuser seated improperly. Reseat the fuser.
   NOTE: You may hear grinding sounds from the right, rear of the printer associated with this specific failure also.

2. Faulty secondary transfer engagement sensor. Replace the secondary transfer engagement sensor. (PS16, part of paper pickup/feed assembly)
   

3. Faulty secondary transfer engaging solenoid. Replace the secondary transfer engaging solenoid. (SL4, part of paper pickup/feed assembly)
   

4. Faulty feed motor. Replace the feed motor. (M1)
   

5. Faulty DC controller PCB. Replace the DC controller PCB.
   

6. If the 59.99 error only occurred after removing and reinstalling the paper pickup/feed assembly, what may have happened is that the secondary transfer engaging solenoid SL4 may have become dislocated. See figure below. Verify position of tab on top of solenoid.

Print cartridges might be improperly installed. Remove the print cartridge for the color that is printing inconsistently and reinstall it. im sure you tried this already, but thats from the manual. also check your settings in the computer verify greyscale is not selected. also. Re-calibrate anyway To calibrate the printer from the HP Color LaserJet 2500 Toolbox 1 Open the HP Color LaserJet 2500 Toolbox in one of these ways: • On the desktop, double-click the HP Color LaserJet 2500 Toolbox icon. • On the Start menu, point to Programs, point to HP Color LaserJet 2500, and choose the HP Color LaserJet 2500 Toolbox. 2 On the Troubleshooting tab, click Diagnostic Tools (on the left side of the screen). 3 Click Color Calibration. Then try a test page. if all else fails Try this The NVRAM reset is done by powering off the machine. Press and hold the Go button. Turn the printer on and continue to hold the Go button. After the Go, Ready, and Attention LED's tuirn on, continue holding for at least 20 seconds. During this process, the Attention, Ready and Go LED's will each turn off. Release the Go button. The device LEDs will begin cycling from front to back. The NVRAM init process runs unitl the printer is in the Ready state.

Double check EVERYTHING you disturbed when you replaced the Transfer Belt.

Probably 2 things not connected properly - fan obviously, and a sensor.

Is the transfer unit installed correctly?Check and refit the transfer unit.

Hi,
The error stands for:

59.XY PRINTER ERROR

X is in your case 3 : FUSER MOTOR STARTUP ERROR.
Y is in your case 0 : NO COLOR

The service manual says:

1. Reconnect the connectors for the fuser motor and on the DC controller PCB. Replace any damged parts.
2. Replace the fuser drive assembly.
3. Replace the DC controller PCB. Calibrate the printer after replacing the DC controller.

This is usually the Transfer kit, but if the image drum or one of the power supplies goes bad, that can also give blank pages. The Drum problem for no print is usually a grounding/connection problem. Power Supplies are a complicated repair, but these printers aren't too bad to work on. You can buy good used one's fairly cheap on ebay, though. Should consider going to a later model CLJ if you replace with a used, though.

Need to order a replacement FUSER it's located in the rear of the printer. If you live in the USA you need 110V if you're in Euro 220V see below for the part number you need to order.

RG5-7602-000
RG5-7603-000
Fuser ***'y, 110V, CLJ 2820/2840
Fuser ***'y, 220V, CLJ 2820/2840
CLJ 2820/2840

Put a maintence kit in your machine, easy install, everything just clicks in, Every 200 000 prints it should be done, it includes the fuser, all feed rollers, sep pad and transfer roller.

These are great printing machine, they only ever need the MK and on this model a fuser drive gear wears and get noisy, but once that has been done once, it is ok from then on.
KIts seem expensive but they are meant to last 200 000 prints and usally do. These are one of the best most reliable printers in the market.
