My Diagnostic Aids for the HP CP4025 and CP4525 50.2 Fuser Error

  1. Turn the machine off then back. Sometimes these errors can happen for  no apparent reason. Examples : Lightening Storms, Windy Days, and Electrical Work near by. If the machine experiences a sudden loss of power and doesn’t quite turn off it can generate this error.
  2. Turn the machine off and reseat the fuser. Unplug from the wall outlet and let it sit 15 to 20 minutes.
  3. If the machine was brought in from a cold environment let it sit for an hour or two to adjust to room temperature.
  4. Make sure cold air like an air conditioner or fan is not blowing directly on it. I’ve even seen canned air cause similar issues.
  5. Remove the fuser and check the connectors going into the heating element. I’ve never seen this on OEM units but I have seen poorly seated connectors on reman or third party units.
  6. Check the power source. Make sure the machine is plugged staight into a wall outlet and not on a powerstrip or battery backup device. I just worked on a machine the other day that was plugged into a power strip that was plugged into another power strip.
  7. If everything so far has failed then it is probably time to replace the fusing unit.
