Thanks for the confirmation of my intuitive analysis.

It's a simple fix -- but who knows what it will cost?


You want my 2 cents worth?
It's convenient how HP was able to print an exact fault that would
point to a component that's not intended for the basic user to correct
and local supplier to have..

This only tells me that some where along the line the flaw was found
and the instruction manual updated until the end of production of that
version..

Simply solution. Buy a new Laser printer of a different model.
