|
|
| Step
1 |
Remove
all Cables and the (2) Paper Guides from
your (hp)
LaserJet 1100 Printer. Unplug (Power Cord &
Computer Cables), Remove Toner Cartridge. Work
in a well lit area with plenty of work space. |
|
|
| Step
2 |
While
facing the rear of your (hp)
LaserJet 1100 Printer, Remove the (3) Three
Screws as indicated in picture.
NOTE: Remove
any Optional Memory at this time in order to remove
the Rear Cover. The Memory chips obstruct this repair,
so they need to be removed to be out of the way. |
|
|
| Step
3 |
While
facing the front of your (hp)
LaserJet 1100 Printer, with the Toner Cartridge
removed, Identify and Remove the Pick-Up Roller
Assembly. You will need to remove the Left &
Right Screws, then slide the Pick-Up Roller Assembly
off to the Right, try to hold the whole Assembly
as you slide it out, this will make it easier.
NOTE:
Pull Outward
and to the Right to remove. |
|
|
| Step
4 |
Flip
your (hp)
LaserJet 1100 Printer Upside Down and remove the
Left & Right Pod Feet. The Pod Feet need to
be removed in order to remove the Exterior Shell.
This can be accomplished with a pair of Needle Nose
Pliers opened up to release the (2) clips
on each Pod Foot. (hp)
does make a Jig for this procedure
but we have found that a pair of Needle Nose Pliers
will work just fine for this procedure remember
each Pod Foot is different and will need to go back
in its original position. |
|
|
| Step
5 |
Flip
your (hp)
LaserJet 1100 Printer back to the Upright Position
with the rear of the Printer facing you. Now you
must remove the Rear Cover. This will allow access
to the Seperation Pad. The Shell will split from
the front part and will hinge back and upwards.
You may have to negotiate the Paper Guides a little
for the Rear Shell to come off properly this is
normal. |
|
|
| Step
6 |
At
this time you will need to remove the plastic Paper
Guide. The Paper Guide will lift straight upwards
out of its place, remember our goal here is to get
access to the Separation Pad.
NOTE: Be Careful
not to damage the Paper Guide |
|
|
| Step
7 |
Now
you must remove the Kick Plate by removing the single
Screw that locks to the Kick Plate Shaft, we find
using a Small #2 Bit with a pair of Pliers works
fine for removal of this Screw, we have to remove
the Kick Plate in order to get to the Separation
Pad. |
|
|
| Step
8 |
WARNING:
USE EXTREME CARE DURING THIS STEP!!!
At
this time, Carefully, and I mean Carefully, pry
the Kick Plate Shaft out of its Socket using a Flat
Blade Screw Driver and twisting at an angle. The
shaft will slide out of its Socket. You must remove
the Shaft out of the Plastic Holder in order to
remove the Kick Plate from its Shaft. We have to
get the Shaft out of the Socket in order to free
up room to replace the Separation Pad.
NOTE:
Don't over apply pressure when removing the Kick
Plate Shaft. |
|
|
| Step
9 |
Once
the Kick Plate Shaft has been removed, slide the
Kick Plate to the Left and off the shaft. This will
require you to bend the Plastic Lock Plate Upwards.
The Kick Plate has a Spring on the backside which
you must bend a little during removal. This is OK.
As you bend the Kick Plate Lock upwards
slide the whole Plastic Kick Plate
off the Shaft to the Left. |
|
|
| Step
10 |
Now
you need to remove the Separation Pad. To do this,
Identifying and Removing the White Seperation Pad
Holding Clip and then remove the Seperation Pad.
The Separation Pad will have a Spring on the back
of it. Don't loose it you will need to put it on
your 
Separation Pad. The Separation Pad is the cause
of Multi-Page Pulling Problems and Paper Jams!!!
NOTE: The
Separation Pad has hinges and will need to be lifted
upwards and back to be removed. |
|
|
| Step
11 |
Remove
the Spring from the old Seperation Pad and Install
it on the
Separation Pad. There will be a Small Nipple on
the back of the
Separation Pad where the spring fits on. Now Reinstall
the
Separation Pad and make sure the Separation Pad
is locked in place correctly. You will know this
by the way the Separation Pad hinges nicely with
a small amount of spring action. Now Reinstall the
White Separation Pad Holding Clip, when Installing
your White Clip keep the hook downwards it needs
to support the Separation Pad you can see this a
little better in Step 12 picture.
NOTE:
Make sure the Separation Pad is correctly
seated in it's Socket, press
your finger on the pad it should have a nice spring
effect. |
|
|
| Step
12 |
Reinstall
the Kick Plate at this time. The Kick Plate will
require a little negotiating because of the Kick
Plate Spring that must go between the Separation
Pad and the Kick Plate. Reinstall the Kick Plate,
slide it all the way to the Right and make sure
it locks in place. The metal from the Shaft should
protrude a little from the Left Side of the plastic
Kick Plate this is good.
NOTE:
Notice how the Kick Plate Spring is between the
Separation Pad. |
|
|
| Step
13 |
WARNING:
USE EXTREME CARE DURING THIS STEP
Now Reinstall the Kick Plate Shaft. You will have
to apply a small amount of Reverse Pressure to lock
the Kick Plate Shaft back in its socket. Be gentle,
it will go in. Don’t force the Shaft, make
sure that the Right side of the metal Shaft is in
its Socket all the way otherwise you will never
have enough room to lock the Left side of the Shaft
back in its Socket, once the Kick Plate Shaft is
back in its Socket then Reinstall the Kick Plate
Screw. |
|
|
| Step
14 |
Install
your
Pick-Up Roller at this time. The Pick-Up Roller
can be removed with a Small Flat Blade Screw Driver.
The Pick-Up Roller will hinge out of its Socket.
We have included a breakdown photo of the Pick-Up
Roller in case your parts get mixed up, the Left
and Right Brackets are the same and the 2 Idler
Wheels. |
|
|
| Step
15 |
While
facing the front of your (hp)
LaserJet 1100 Printer, Install your Pick-Up Roller
Assembly. Do this by Identifying the Shaft on the
Left side of the Pick-Up Roller and lining it up
with the Shaft in your (hp)
LaserJet 1100 Printer. Note the Round or Half Moon
on the Pick-Up Roller should be facing you, not
the backside of the Pick-Up Roller. This will help
with alignment, also the Spline on the Roller Shaft
has to match the Spline on the Printer Shaft, one
side of the Roller Shaft has a slight indifference. |
|
|
| Step
16 |
When
the Pick-Up Roller is in, look in the back of your
(hp)
LaserJet 1100 Printer and you should see the (2)
Plastic Pins of the Feedroller brackets protruding
from the metal, this is good. Now Install the (2)
Screws for the Pick-Up Roller. Make sure not to
damage or obstruct the Feed Sensor under the White
Left Feedroller Bracket. you can see this Sensor
better in the Step 15 picture. You can take a Flat
Blade Screw Driver and toggle it to make sure it
swings freely. |
|
|
| Step
17 |
Now
Reinstall your Paper Guide. Make sure to not damage
the Black Film that guides the paper. As you Install
the Paper Guide, simply look down and watch the
Black Film making sure it does not hang up on anything.
If this is not correct, then this is a sure way
to get a Paper Jam when finished. The Paper Guide
will snap into place when pushed down all the way
it can only go in one way so dont force it. |
|
|
| Step
18 |
Install
the Rear Cover. Do this by aligning the top (2)
Hinge Arms into place and slowly lower the Shell.
While doing this you may have to bend the Paper
Guides to work the Rear Cover back to its normal
position this may take a little negotiating to accomplish,
take your time. |
|
|
| Step
19 |
Once
the Rear Cover is back to a lowered position you
must clip the Front cover to the Back Cover. Make
sure that there is a good seam between the front
and Rear Covers you can see the seem in Step 20
picture. Now you can Reinstall the (3)
Screws on the Back Cover. |
|
|
| Step
20 |
Flip
yout (hp)
LaserJet 1100 Printer Upside Down and Reinstall
the Left & Right Pod Feet. There is a Left &
Right Foot. They will need to go in their correct
location. |
|
| |
| Step
21 |
You’re all done; now
is the time to Reinstall your Optional Memory
if you have not done so, and run a Test Copy.
Plug your (hp)
LaserJet 1100 Printer in and let it cycle before
adding paper.
