HP 3150 manual Paper curl, Checking the high-voltage connector assembly

Checking the high-voltage connector assembly

The assembly uses three spring-loaded pins to contact the toner cartridge: charging (callout 1), drum ground (callout 2), and developing roller (callout 3). Verify that the pins are not dirty or corroded and that the spring-loading action is functional. If the pins are dirty, clean them using alcohol only. If they are damaged, replace the high voltage connector assembly.

Paper curl

Paper curl is inherent to the laser printing processes, and occurs when paper is subjected to heat. Paper curl tends to relax as the paper cools while resting on a flat surface. The specification for maximum paper curl when the paper is lying flat before print is 0.2 inches (5 mm).
