First, power the printer off, wait for about 30secs and power on. If problem persist replace the scanner.

How should I solve the problem of hp laser jet M2727nf when shows error message "Scanner error 5 and turn off then on?

The "Scanner error 5" is a notorious problem on the HP LaserJet M2727mfp series printers. ... The "Scanner error 5" usually triggers when the scanner's drive motor fails. Fortunately, replacing the scanner assembly (which includes the motor) is not considered difficult.

Scanner error 52 turn off and turn on

Sir/Madam

Unfortunately there's no troubleshoot with a 52 error. As it implies it's usually the scanner bad. It sits up top- under the top cover. It connects to the Formatted Board on the left side. and there's 2 connector s at the scanner itself.

So if Your HP Printer is Under warranty ( 12 Months ) Then I Suggest You Go To Official authorized HP shop for your HP Printer Problem and Troubleshoot or Go To Official HP Printer Website To Update HP Printer Software and Driver,Or You Update It From Official Below URL Link:

I cannot print or copy with my HP LASERJET MFP M2727 NFS because the control panne show this error: SCANNER INITIALIZING ERROR 5. The only thing that is suggested is to turn on the device. When I turn on...

Hello,


This sounds like a Scanner/Flatbed Problem. This series of printers have a known problem with this component. The scanner is failing to initialize itself. The scanner does need to be changed by an Authorized HP Warranty Repair Facility. It is possible that it may be covered under an HP Extended Warranty program. See repair information VIA posted Link.

HP m2727nf scanner error 5

Hi Anataloi,

This is due to a hardware failure, the scanner assembly and the formatter board will need to be replaced.

Try doing a hard or reset or nvram:
1. Turn the printer off
2. Hold down the right arrow and the cancel button
3. Reboot the printer while holding the buttons and hold until permanent storage is displayed. Let go of the buttons and wait for the ready message on the display.

if this does not work contact hp 1800-334-5144 , if within 2 years from the purchase date ask for a case number to have the printer serviced under a service note.

I am getting a message that says Scanner Error 5 turn off then on and when I turn off then on it will print one document and the message comes back up. Please help if you can thanks, KT

Try cleaning the scanner glass real good with alcohol. If that doesn't help, you may have to get a tecchnician to disassemble it to clean the underside of the glass and the scanner.

Eva, This is a common problem with this machine and more than likely the scanner will need to be replaced. You should try calling HP and see if they will cover it since it is a common problem.
