Thanks for the confirmation of my intuitive analysis.

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



Well, what i would do is see if you get lucky. Take the unit apart. take
the toner cart out of it. take the boards out and blow them off outside
or carefully vacuum them inside. (you don't want toner dust all over).

THen carefully check connectors on the boards and check for cold solder
joints. I had a LJ2 that got funky and started working when i cleaned it
out and resoldered connections.
