HP 200/300 and similar models GPM (printer assembly) failure: When the inkjet carriage is homed on the right side of the unit, the spring pointing toward the rear of the unit passes under 2 "actuators" that appear to be identical (mounted vertically, L-shaped). Under heavy usage, the lower end of these actuators is worn away. To remove the actuators for inspection, carefully rotate the paper pickup feed wheels while pulling upward on the L-shaped actuator (compare the 2 actuators, or compare them with actuators from a comparable machine that is in working order).
Many HP and Panasonic inkjet models are comparable and parts can be ordered from Matsushita.
If there is an encoder strip (scale) in inkjet models, clean it to correct a wide variety of problems (HP 900, OfficeJet, Panafax UF321). The encoder strip resembles a narrow piece of cellophane tape, and can be found behind and above the silver bar on which the printhead rides. Easily broken ... use caution when cleaning with a cotton swab dampened with water or rubbing alcohol. When dirty from overspray, the strip can cause all types of problems.
In the Maintenance Mode of HP and Panasonic machines there is a wealth of information. For example, print out the function parameter list to get the lifetime TX/RX/PRINT counts (usually option 3 instead of option 6 in the following example for the HP 200).
HP 200 ram clear
Press # dial dial dial dial * 6 start
Exit the maintenance mode by pressing 9 9 9 start
[Note: to print function parameter list substitute 3 for 6 in the line above]
[Note: to execute a self-test substitute 0 for 6]
[Note: to set parameters 000-999, substitute 1 for 6]
[Note: to test modem/tones, substitute 4, 5, or 7 for 6]
[The TX/RX/COPY counter is item 061 on function parameter list]
HP 300/310 ram clear
Press function 7 dial dial dial dial * 6 start
HP 700 ram clear
Press and hold stop and menu for a few seconds
Press 7 0 0

Bad line card: replace 2 transistors, 1 diode, and 1 chip. Transistors BS170 (NTE490) @ Q1; 2N3906 @Q3. Diode 1N4148 ar CR2 (next to 2N3906). Chip 74LS14 (74HC14) at U5 (near BS170).

Press up-arrow key until the display reads shipment set then press start
The display will read reset counter
Select yes or no then press start
HP 900 disassembly tips (proceed with caution and at your own risk). To remove the operation panel cover: face the rear of the unit, place your thumbs in the outside edges of the document feed path, lift up on the thin edge of the cover while pulling the cover toward you. This should release "snaps" located at the outer edges of the document feed path. Facing the front of the machine, lift the cover up and toward you, then disconnect a cable attached to a board on the rear of the operation panel. To access the document feed mechanism, remove a white plastic retainer in the upper right hand corner of the ADF cover, disconnect the ground strap on the right side of the cover, and slide the cover slightly to the right until it is unhinged. The cover housing the scanner glass can be lifted off after removing several screws, popping two "snaps" at the rear corners, and then carefully popping two more snaps at the front corners of the cover. At this point you would be able to clean one scanner mirror and the ADF sensors & rollers. If you need to remove the line card, you'll have to remove the remaining covers, one screw located at the front of the power supply, four screws that hold the printer assembly in place, one screw at the right rear corner of the scanner assembly, pop two snaps at the front corners of the scanner assembly (remove a long white plastic retainer at the left front corner of the scanner assembly). After gently lifting the scanner assembly upward, the printer assembly can be removed to reveal the line card. During reassembly, be sure to check the positioning of the print paper detect sensor (the spring comes off the sensor and you get an out-of-paper error). Another observation we've made is that on some (but not all) HP 900's, there is a metal retaining clip on the left end of the paper pickup roller's shaft. Apparently the plastic lever (retainer or lock) on the left end of the axle doesn't always hold the mechanism in place in the event of a multi-feed that jams the machine, and at some point in production of the machines a metal clip was added to hold the plastil retainer firmly in place.
HP 900 set number of rings to answer (default is 2)
Press menu 7 dial dial dial dial * 1 start
Press 4 5 start clear
Enter the number of rings desired then press start stop stop
HP Office Jet / LX
For a full ram clear, press and hold * and 1 while turning the power on.
Hold the keys down for a few seconds after the display reads self test please wait then release the keys
For a partial ram clear, press * and 4 while turning the power on.
For the Diagnostics Mode hold * and 7 while turning the power on. Afterwards, new menu items will be found on the display including diagnostics. Turn the unit off afterwards to dump the diagnostic menu selection.
The original Office Jet/LX will print a scanner calibration chart/instructions.
If the modem fails, remove it. Reinstall and test.
Clear Paper Jam: Remove RX tray, press load/eject and paper should load part way; press load/eject a second time and the page should be ejected. If the page ejects ok, then it's not necessarily a mechanical problem, in which case you should clean the encoder strip and sensor. If the page does not load properly, it is probably a mechanical failure. Laserjet paper is slick on one side and may not load properly. Recycled cartridges spray excess ink on the encoder strip

SOURCE: scanner failure

This is a serious hardware issue where you will not be able to copy or scan from the printer. However, printing is still possible. The only possible steps for this issue are Connecting it to a wall outlet directly, and performing a semi full reset..

Disconnect the power cord from the product.
Press and hold # and 6 while reconnecting the power cord to the product, and then release both buttons.

After performing this step, try making a copy. If the issue does not resolve, replacing is the only option available.

SOURCE: scanner failure-no longer prints

Hi, I'll give your situation a "stab in the dark" solution. It sounds like you are in the final stages of "scanner system failure". The beginning stages usually limits the all-n-1 to print only i.e., no scan and no fax but you may have such a severe scanner bulb situation that is preventing the print function and may be causing hazardous conditions within your printer and it will do nothing to prevent further harm or damage. Can you describe your situation a bit more detailed?

SOURCE: printer scanner failure

The motor that pushes the scanner for faxes and scanner has finally given up (or a gear broke)... Most only have a 2 year lifecycle. HP has designed it that way. I used to work for HP All in One.. whenever someone would call in for that issues, the document we used ALWAYS (for all units) said "replace" :(

Try to print--scanner failure appears

I think your printer has been, for some time now, trying to tell you something and the scanner failure message
is the last in a series of messages.

First, the copier and the printer and the scanner worked fine, "for years",
Then, the copier stopped accepting scans, while printing from data sent by your computer.
Then, you received a scanner failure message again, and will not accept data from your computer, and
"won't print at all"

Your printer/scanner/copier/fax has needed service for some time after years of continuous service.

Evaluate now, based on its initial cost and the lesser cost of All In Ones whether you have already
obtained sufficient service to amortize the cost over time, and you may conclude that service is eitherr
cost effective or ineffective at this time.

Scanner Failure

The only thing I can surgest is that you check installed programs I found that the 750 is very fussy about being the only kid on the block. Maybe worth trying a commercial program that says it will remove "junk" from your hard drive

It could be the bulb. Sometimes disassembling the scanner and thoroughly cleaning the glass and mirror will help.
