Problem for HP Color LaserJet 2600n Printer
HP 2600n crackling noise at top feed - paper creased
My 2600n has worked fine for a couple of years. Recently it has started to make a crunchy/crackling noise at the output rolles. My paper also has a 1/4" roller/crease at right after printing (and slight crinkling at left) - yes, it is regular letter size paper. The input feed is fine from manual or tray one. No strange print stock was used - no cartridges changed.
I would like to know how to open the top to look at the output rollers if nothing else.
Thanks.

- I think you might have nailed it. In the fuser area, I can see a whitish roller. Instead of being centered, it is getting ground up on one side.I could not find a diagram for 2600n on Printer Works (though they seem to have everything else). Let me know if you see it.
Thanks for your help!

- Possibly the same issue here ... except that the printer is only 3 months old. There is a "crackling" noise -- but specifically from the paper as it flows out of the printer. The paper is creased from the middle of the page down both the left and right sides. The ink does not smear off the page -- but is distorted along the creases. - kleonardJan 11, 2008
- I have the same problem with my 16 months old printer after only 3500 pages.Dissassembled the printer according to the instructions an found the same problem. The fuser sleeve is shifted to the right side of the printer and came loose there. Also the rubber roller at this side has some crinkles now.
Strange for a printer that could print 35000 pages a month according to the specs I' ve seen. With this kind of volume you should probably change the fuser every 3 days......- GerritW

Can you wipe the toner off the page or smear it? Most likely the fuser has had the fixing film fail. Thus the crackling noise. You have two solutions, 1. replace the fuser with a ne or rebuilt one or 2. find a fixing film and replace it yourself. Both jobs require removing the fuser which means disassembling the printer. Check Printer Works for a diagram and Google for the best price on a fuser. Hope this helps.

If you are good at mathematics, maybe you' ll see its better to buy a new, exactly the same printer. Take the price of four new cartridges and add the price of a new fuser. Now see if this price is lower than the price of a completely new printer with new cartridges and a new fuser (and all the other new parts). You' ll be suprised! (At least I was)
Yes
No
