Error : 49 service error
Problem Description: communication error
The possible cause could be: if firmware is not update or documents stuck on queue
Corrective Action:
1>Check in standalone mode without usb or network cable .
2>If printer is turning on and came to ready mode check printing config report from printer
through setup > reports >config report
option on printer.
3>FW should be upto date if not go to hp site and check
https://support.hp.com/in-en/drivers/selfservice/swdetails/hp-color-laserjet-pro-mfp-m477-series/732... . You can install FW
and then connect the usb cable with PC and when running the setup file in PC
the printer should be selected and when we send firmware printer should get restart
if printer restarted the FW will be updated.
4>check with different IP address if connected on Lan.
5> If This error comes while printing any pdf document
just check these options
pcl 6 drivers (devices and printers > right click on printer icon >
printer preference option > advance >

a)send true type as bitmap: Enabled
b)Alternative letterhead mode: OFF
c)Raster compression : Automatic
