HP Maintenance Kit PMK2 for HP DesignJet Z9 44in - Part numbers?

[StevenKeirstead]

Does any body know what part #s correspond to the "HP Maintenance Kit PMK2 for HP DesignJet Z9 44in" ? My HP Z9+ 44" is telling me I need this soon. Online vendors including the HP Store do not list a product or products by this name. A British website says the Preventive Maintenance Kit 2 includes

• Service Station Assembly
• Line Sensor
• Left Spittoon

I assume that is the same in the USA (I live in Maine).

The above table is from the service manual.

Thanks. Can I install these myself or must an HP certified technician do it? My printer is 3.5 years old and not in warranty or covered by service agreements anymore.

If you are good with tools probably yes, a free service manual is available, just follow the manual

Finally got all the parts and I am stuck trying to get the HP Z9+ 44" left cover off. I removed all the screws indicated by the HP service manual, but the rear section of the cover is stuck on something, so the cover won't come off. It's almost as if there's a screw in the middle of that section that HP forgot to tell you must be removed.

Did  you get the screws on the backside of the panel that you say is sticking. There is one or two screws that are accessed from the cavity where the printer paper goes.

Hi Repairtrooper, I unscrewed the top two screws of the left panel from the roll paper area, which are shown on page 361 of the manual (step 7). Are there others that should also be removed? The rear left section of the end cover (panel section) seems to stick in the middle, but there is nothing in the manual that shows removing screws in that specific area.

I do not remember the number of screws, but it is easy to remove the wrong one, some hold the outer panel in place, some hold the inner panel in place. Try to loosen other screws to see if the panel starts to loosen. Remove as appropriate. When all screws are removed, this panel slides off very easily. I have never had it hang on anything.
