Hi ,
You may need to have the DesignJet looked at. It's a problem
with the cutter and it needs to be replaced. Here is a link to find a
support number in your area.
The cutter on the 450C should be replaced by a certified
service engineer.

If this answers your question please rate this as fixed.

Hi, please try this:
1. Remove
all media from the output tray.
2. Check
the duplexer.
a. Push the button on either side of the duplexer, and then remove the panel or unit.
b.
Locate any jammed media inside the device, grasp it with both hands and then pull
it towards you.
c.
If the jam is not there, push the latch on the top of the duplexer and lower
its cover. If the jam is inside, carefully remove it. Close the cover.
d.
Reinsert the duplexer into the device.
3. Open
the top cover and remove any debris.
4. If
you have not found the jam and have Tray 2 installed, pull out the tray and remove
the jammed media, if possible. If not, do the following:
a.
Ensure the device is turned off and disconnect the power cord.
b.
Lift the device off Tray 2.
c.
Remove the jammed media from the bottom of the device or from Tray 2.
d.
Reposition the device on top of Tray 2.
5. Open
the print carriage access door. If there is paper remaining inside the device, ensure
the carriage has moved to the right of the device, free any paper scraps or wrinkled
media, and pull the media towards you through the top of the device.
6. After clearing the jam, close all covers, turn on the device (if you turned it off) and resend the print job.

I had the machine looked at 9 months ago when the drive belt failed and HP's representative replaced it. I told the technician that the cutter occasionally failed and the media jammed, but he told me it just needed lubrication. This is an old plotter, but excellent in most other respects. Can I change the cutter myself, and if so, where can I get one?
(Previous experience of HP indicates they will not ship parts they say they should replace).
Can you understand all that gibberish on HP's site?
This is a simple problem, and I don't really want to chuck £300 at HP, when the machine is 10 years old, and likely to fail somewhere else some time soon. It may well be better tp buy a new plotter.
Last time out HP charged £300 to change a drive belt. The cost of the belt was probably less than £20.
I have already downloaded HP's various manuals and guides.
Incidentally, your last email refers to a Laser Jet 4500 Printer. This machine is a Design Jet 450C A0 plotter.
