HP LaserJet CM4540 50.1 Fuser Error Tips

 

Repair Aids for the  HP LaserJet CM4540 50.1 Fuser Error

The CM4540 50.1 Fuser Error is related to a low temperature reading in the fusing assembly. This error is probably one of the errors I see the most. If the fuser doesn’t heat up quick enough when it goes to print you get this error, sometimes when you get a brown out or low power situation on the circuit you get this error. Other times this can happen as the heating elements age. My theory is that if it happens once or twice a year then that’s OK. If it happens twice in a month or two then it’s time to replace. Below find out what the service manual has to say about this error and at the bottom on the article you will find a link to an article to show you how to replace the fusing assembly if needed.
