Dell 3000cn Color Laser Printer Questions & Answers
Error code says invalid pdl file
Uncheck the "Enable advanced printing features" checkbox under the Advanced tab in the printer's Properties page. I've observed this causes the print job to fail when I've attempted to print via USB cable. Also, any advice you read that suggests printing directly to printer isn't sound advice. You need to spool your job, or otherwise a large job that does not fit the printer's available memory (buffer) DOES NOT fail gracefully.
How to disassemble dell 3000cn
My printer is giving blurred colour images I have changed the photoconductor and the same happens so it is definatly the printer any help
I have a dell 3000cn. the printed page comes out
This problem should be easily isolated to the imaging drum unit. My bet is that there is debris in the laser writer path blocking the beam's path and ability to form the image. Try removing the drum unit and blowing the machine out with some canned air. If this doesn't work I would have it serviced.
How do i load paper in the MPF
The front of you printer should open so you can access the MPF (Manual Paper Feed) tray. The MPF is usually tray No. 1 on most laser printers.
Dell 3000cn color printer - black/grey line down
Sounds like the black drum. You can't get the part from anyone but Dell so be prepared for the cost. It also requires some disassembly to install on my Dell 5110cn so yours most likely will also.
Unable to connect Dell 3000cn to wireless network
The printer driver needs to be installed and the printer port changed from LPT1 or USB to a TCP/IP port.
Please refer to my tip on Setting up HP network printer. the principles are the same for setting up network printers with a print server.

Dell 3000cn has vertical white lines on
Copied from the Dell community forums:
This is from a previous
post and may help with your problem. I have printed 1000's since I came
up with this fix with no recurrence of any streaking. Let me know how
this works for you.
I have come up with the cause
and a fix for the above problem. This also fixes the problem of lines
running the direction of paper travel on color prints. Black and white
prints are OK. If you have a warranty on your printer or drum unit then
you can have the drum unit replaced and hope you get a good replacement
drum unit. To fix your drum unit do the following:
1. Remove the drum unit from your 3100cn.
2.
Set the drum unit on a clean level surface and avoid touching the drum
or the transfer belt (the decal with 4 arrows points to the transfer
belt).
3. Remove the 6 screws from the top cover (the cover
has the blue handle attached). Two screws are on top at both ends of
the blue handle. The next 2 screws are on the sides and line up with
the decal with 4 arrows. The last 2 screws are also on the sides and at
the lower corners of the big decal that shows how to remove the drum
unit from the 3100cn.
4. Carefully lift the cover from the
drum unit and cover the drum unit with clean paper to protect the
transfer belt from bright light. You can
carefully reinstall the drum unit without the top cover and run some
color prints. If the lines are gone then continue with step 5.
5.
Look at the ribbed side of the top cover. Some may show some toner
build-up. Some of the rib intersections are too high and are dragging
in the toner that is applied to the transfer belt. The ribs are there
to add stiffness to the cover and to keep it from bowing.
6. Place the cover handle side down on a clean towel.
7.
Using a palm sander with 320 grit sandpaper and light pressure (the
weight of the palm sander) sand until the ribs going both directions are
showing signs of being sanded. You will be able to see the difference
as unsanded areas will be glossy and sanded areas will have a dull
finish.
8. Switch to 600 grit paper and do a light sanding.
9. Wash the cover under cool water. Don't use hot water since that could cause the cover to bend.
10. Dry completely. I used compressed air.
11. Reinstall the cover to the drum unit. Tighten the 4 side screws first and then the 2 top screws last.
12. Put the drum unit back into the 3100cn and try a color print.
13. Please post if you have any questions about the procedure.
14. If your next drum unit has the same problem you can swap top covers.

I am wondering how to print on an envelope. Can
Both of the leader programs, Word and WordPerfect provide for envelope in their code.
But you must make sure you select the correct size envelope in both the "Page Setup" from the application as well as from the printer driver.

Dellcn3000 close front door error
This is an outcome of and corrupted driver. Disconnect the printer or completely turn off it. Then re-install the driver. I mean its software program. You can do it using the software CD which came with the Dell Printer. This will fix any software fault in the driver of the printer. Thank you Sir, Have a nice day !
Vertical lines printed on right side of every page
Would be helpful to know the brand and model of the printer. Sometimes this is caused by not returning the slide used to clean the primary corona wire to its original position (usually to the extreme left side of the toner cartridge) after cleaning the corona wire. If you haven't cleaned the corona wire, you should follow instructions and do that first.
