I have a HP 2550 Laser Printer and using the front loader and not trays. My Amber light is blinking. There is paper and I looked and there is no paper jam. I uninstalled the printer and installed it again and this time I got an error Paper Jam. I checked again in the front, under the drum in the back and took the back panel off and there is no paper. I plugged the printer back up and turned it on and still saying paper jam. Is there a way to clear the error memory (hard Reboot)???

After changing the drum, toner and running around town for days trying to find a reliable place to get this printer repaired, I realized I was spending a lot more money than what the printer actually costs. the drum was over $100, toner was $80, and the printer is $250. I bought a new one, and I can now use the old one for parts.

SOURCE: Paper Jam Error on HP 2015

For whatever reason the printer internal programming became corrupt showing that there is a paper jam. After checking the paper path and a quick can of air sprayed into the tracks, I proceeded to attempt a Cold Reset.

1) Remove the paper tray.
2) Remove toner cartridge.
3) Unplug USB.
3) While plugged in to power, turn off the printer, hold down the 'GO' button and power it back on. Continue to hold for more than 5 seconds but less than 15.
4) Reinstall the tray (be sure to check the paper level indicator is operating when you add paper to the tray. The lever should move up as it fills with paper)

Reconnect the USB cable (make sure you are using a thick USB cable and not a cheap thin one, very important. Make sure the printer is not plugged into a backup batter either) Never plug a printer into backup power.

I noticed that the computer did not recognize the device when connected which prompted me to contact HP support.

HP Support is shipping out Item # CE517AB - Font/DIMM Program for me to install in the printer to most likely reinstall the firmware.

I will post back if this works to flash the firmware or just waste some time.

Hp 2015dn paper jam light on solid,won;t print

This is a widely known problem with this printer and means the formatter board needs to be replaced. Save yourself the cost and headache of repairing and move on. The problem initially began as a random situation where I would have to turn the printer off and back on to get it to print.This eventually progressed to the problem you all are reporting which is the amber toner and jam lights on. I replaced the formatter board on mine and after one month the problem returned with the new formatter board needing replaced as well.

Of course, HP acts as if they've never heard of the problem. This company's integrity and quality has gone from number 1 to dead last.
