HP Color LaserJet CP3525dn Error Message 59.F0

[Allegra]

I would like to know if it is usefull to upgrade the firmware if the printer has the error code 59.F0.

Not really since the error is hardware error and most times it is the transfer belt that has an issue. First thing would be to remove the transfer belt and then reinstall and see what happens.

Thank you for the reply. Yes i had done several time, i removed the transert belt and the fuser and i replaced it. The error returned again. I did again and now the printer works, but i don't know if the problem is solved, maybe it works temporarily.

I read somewhere that, sometimes, an update of the firmware can prevent also hardware errors. But i don't know if this one is a case like this.

I have not seen that error addressed on your printer with a firmware upgrade. I have seen it on the CP4025. I would think your transfer belt is what is causing the issue and if it happens frequently you may need to replace it. You can upgrade the firmware if you wish as there it should not effect anything else

Thank you

It was said this issue could be fixed with a small piece of duck tape. But it was not explained, where to place it. You have to remove the roof of your printer first. Follow this video on youtube until 5 min 50 sec: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kE1YhZXxLp0

I fixed the 59.F0 of my CP3525dn by placing a small piece of paper between the solenoid and the moving part. It is usual printer paper, cut to about 20 mm x 4 mm. So I skipped a lot of work shown in the video. Research and documentation took longer than the real repair.
