HP Printer Error Code 16

Error 16 Toner Low

1. Toner cartridge is empty or toner in cartridge is not distributed evenly. Gently shake the toner cartridge both from side to side and from front to back. This can generally get you 100 or so more pages.
2. Bad or dirty cartridge contacts. Look for the conductive contacts on the cartridge and the corresponding contacts in the printer and make sure they are clean and free of contaminants.
3. Defective High Voltage power supply or on the LJ II/III the DC controller to High Voltage power supply can be defective. Check for opens on the cable.
4. IIISi/4Si check the door open sensor flag, PS1. Also check the toner level sensor and the toner cartridge itself for damage. It can also be caused by a defective DC controller. You can verify this by substituting a known good DC controller if possible.

HP Printer Error Code 12

Error 12 Printer Open

1. Paper path door (IIP/IIIP) or top cover open. On the IIP/IIIP this can be caused by a defective toner cartridge, defective cooling fan, PS4 or PS5 sensors. Also caused by the density adjusting PCA located behind the density adjusting slide switch. This board takes the input from the two sensors and provides info to the DC controller. If the board becomes defective, you will receive an error 12. Easily replaced after removing the top cover and three wiring harness connectors. If you want to attempt board level repair try the electrolytic capacitor, C702, 10 uF 50 VDC. On the 4P/5P printers, the top cover is open or no toner cartridge is installed. This error can also be caused by a defective interlock switch assembly.

2. On the Laserjet 4/4+ an error 12 can indicate the top cover open or a broken tab on the cover assembly. On rare occasions a defective paper control assembly or actuator can cause this problem. Verify the tab on the cover is not broken.

Windows 3.x Printer Troubleshooting

Issue:

Windows 3.x printer troubleshooting.

Cause:

It may be required to do basic troubleshooting in Windows 3.x to get your printer to work properly.

Solution:

Windows 3.0 Users -Unfortunately, Windows 3.0 had several printing limitations and it is recommend that you upgrade to at least Windows 3.1.

Windows 3.1 and 3.11 - Incorrect or out of date video drivers may cause issues with printing in Windows 3.1 and Windows 3.11. Attempt to change your video card to "Standard VGA" by going to MS-DOS prompt and type cd\windows and then type setup; this can also be done through Windows.

If this resolves your issue, update your video card drivers.

If this does not work, attempt to reinstall the printer.
