HP LaserJet 4200 printer—torn fuser film service note
To determine if the fuser film is torn, lift the fuser
tray guide and examine the film. Film in good
condition appears as a solid gray roller, film in
poor condition exhibits the film sleeve shifting to
the left and shredded film pieces. If the film is
torn, replace the fuser. When this issue occurs
before the end of the fuser’s 200,000-page life,
customers are not charged for the fuser
replacement.
Some users of the HP LaserJet 4200 series
printer have experienced printing problems
caused by delaminated or torn film on the
product’s fuser and occurring before the end of
the fuser’s 200,000-page life. The cause of the
tearing film is a flange component set at an
excessively angled position on some units. This
issue has been corrected, and all fusers
produced subsequently will have a proper
flange component in place.
For more information
Below is an example of print quality problems
associated with the torn film. Other indications
that the film is torn include pieces of the film
coming out with the printed output or the fuser
area of the product.
