Thank you so much! This brought our HP LaserJet Pro 400 color MFP M475 back to life. I also had the error 59.C0 and repeated calibration. This printer has a scanner on top, but one can access the respective solenoid like this: Open the side cover, 3 screws, one back, two on side bottom / Slide cover backward, pull off (without force). / remove all connectors from the mainboard (with the ethernet socket) and, if installed, fax module. Then unscrew the metal plate below the mainboard; there are about 10 screws, one of which on the backside. One can move a black plastic part a bit to turn the lowest screw on the back. / The cogwheel and solenoid with the metal lever are visible just a few centimeters behind the position of the mainboard. I then applied the sticker (I used electrical insulation PVC tape). After re-assembling, I made many printouts (on used paper, of course) non of which failed! Congrats for this fantastic fix.

Bought LaserJet CP1525n color 10 years ago and never used it after it's first toner. Got a need for a printer and found it switching on so I bought toner and tried few copies, all test pages were printed ok, but after few prints I realize the printer took a lot longer to print any document, then yesterday I got the error code 59.c0. Look up online and this is the first place I found a solution. Thank you so much, when I get time I'll try to do this quick fix.

Great! Just repaired my HP 2025N following your great video !!! Aloha and Mahalo!

Fix also works for CM2320, just inserted a little sticker as shown. Perfect solution, saving me a lot of money. Opening of the CM2320 is almost the same, see other videos on the net, then proceed like shown in this one. THANK YOU, whom ever you are. As semiconductors are badly available currently, a new printer would have cost a lot and I like mine and still have lots of toner. Again thank you.

Thank you sir, I just changed the pick roller thinking that might fix my issue and came across your video

OMG, you just got me out of a hole with this. In my case i didn't use the sticky method, i just cleaned the sticky off with isopropanol. Thank you so much!

Thank you very much! You kept a printer out of the landfill and it was a fun project to take it apart.

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! A simple (relatively) fix saved a $700 laser printer when every other site (including HP's own community forum) said the 50.20 error meant the unit had to be replaced. None even offered the solution to replace the solenoid... which I probably couldn't do. A 1/2" piece of and address label and the problem was solved. FOOTNOTE: I didn't take as much of the printer apart as you did. I only removed the screws on the back; the two screws holding the top then unsnapped the top and had all the access I needed. Didn't remove the sides or the toner tray. Plus I only used a one-sided label as opposed to folding it in half and sliding it in between. I didn't have as much room on mine as was showing on yours, but the tweezers slid it into place and it stuck and the solenoid opens and closed cleanly. I could tell by the sound it made when it started up it was going to work. Got into the menu; printed a test sheet and it worked like it did since day one.... And day one was several years ago. Thanks again.

You are the boss!! Thank your very much. This just saved me a ton of a money and saved the earth from throwing this on the landfill.!

Thank you very much because your method helped me repair my Laser Jet Pro 400 Color M451dn printer successfully and now it no longer runs forever without printing anything.

Fantastic, this works great on millions of HP laser printers. Almost no solenoid ever needs to be replaced, just get the gooy, sticky pad to be covered with that folded in half sticker or label.

I have 12 year old CM2320nf and since I start use it for 12 years I never had any issues. But recently all of sudden, my printer does not feed paper from any tray and continuously running prints or copy operation without paper feeding. To stop this malfunctioning, I need to unplug the AC cord. And I didn't have the error code "59.C0" with the latest firmware. I have the latest firmware so, there was no firmware updates necessary at HP support site. So, this video was very help to fix my printer. in my case when I fix the solenoid the problem was not resolved. So I changed the Pick-up roller and the Separation roller together. And then my printer starts work again as brand new printer!.(Lots of videos in you tube for the roller changes). Thank you so much to providing this video!

Holy guacamole!! Thank you so much for making this video!! I have an M375 that was having this problem. I stuck a screwdriver in there covered with a dry wipe dipped in acohol and dcrubbed all the glue off and it work well too!! This 375 is much harder to take apart because of the scanner unit, so I figured I'd go for a more permanent fix. Thank so very much for making this video you just saved me hundreds of dollars.

THANK YOU! With this time consuming yet inexpensive (aka "FREE") fix, I am hopeful that I can get another 10 years out of my favorite printer. Btw, just using a strip of paper (1 cm x 4 cm) folded into a V shape worked perfectly for me!

Thank you very much. It worked also for my CP2025. There is not so nice acces after same disassembly and I didn't want to take whole printer apart. So I just needed to cut 5 by 5 cm of inner upper plastic cover in order to comfortly apply sticker. Now it works as new.

Worked great! Thank you for saving my HP printer.

Thank you!!!. It's so simple, I can't believe it worked. I also used alcohol with small piece of paper towel wrapped around a toothpick and tape on one end. Just wipped the tip around the area to clean it.

Thank you for posting! Followed your directions and I was able to fix the error!

Worked for HP Laserjet 400. Thank you sir

Thank you 😊, I could repair my printer. God bless you for providing this video!

Wow life saver. Thank you bro.

Brilliant ! So clearly explained. Many thanks...... All the way from London.

Thank you very much for sharing this. A little piece of black pvc electrical tape (like you suggested) sorted the problem. Much appreciated.

You are the best.Thank you Sir🙏🙏🙏

Thanks for this video. My CM2320 stopped feeding paper after changing a toner cart; I thought I broke the printer. Some Web search on continuous cycling led to "sticky solenoid" and then your video. The paper fix is the same one I learned for the HP LaserJet II decades ago. Why do printers still have glued rubber deadeners?

Wow its really work, tnx bro

Thnx mate! Helped me solved the problem!! Would have never known without you. Just don't understand why there are more screws on my desk instead of in the printer.. Have to sort that One out..

It's working... Thanks a lot!

thank you! These m451 are workhorses.. nothing hp makes now compares to the old stuff.

Thanks, very helpful video. I read in some comments that it would work as well to just clean the metal. I tried this, but it did not work. So you really need some kind of label or felt to cover the metal from the solenoid. Maybe this helps someone, too.

I have an HP LaserJet 500 m551 printer, and I have the error code 59.00.CO as well, It is hard to reach as a non-professional, I was just trying by watching these videos and following instructions which I did base on the nearest model printer that matches mine, I can't take it out based on the location, I was watching a video until he stops there and use a method and took out the entire bracket that holds the gears and solenoid, so I didn't see the last part how he did it, so I came up with my own method to get rid of the sticky padded piece, " but It wasn't sticking at all, but I use a long needle to scrapped it off, it moves free, been doing so before i assume it was sticking, base on the test i gave it to check if it was really sticking, I close back up the machine which was the hardest part, as I couldn't remember the step I took, I put in the screws in the holes that I saw empty and so far, it holds together, yet I still have about 6 screws leave back, After I manage to do so, I turn on the printer to now see fuser error, but it hardly comes back, but the error code 59.00.CO returns, yet my solenoid has nothing to stick on to cause a delay...what can I now do to solve this issue.

Thank you so much, ❤

Very helpful and solved my problem. Thanks.

How did you clean the plates before applying the label? Other people said to to use a cotton swab with alcohol or similar, but I can't manage to fit a swab in there-the space is too tight.

thanks sir 🙏😊

Interesting shortcut !

Any idea where it’s located on the HP M251nw I’ve got all 3 covers off but in that area you are in I don’t see solenoid 😡 is it in different location on the m251?

Is it the same on a CP1515N? Would a fix be superglueing a piece of bicycle innertube in the foam's place to prevent the piece and main body sticking? Also I have a demagnitizer for my tape, and should I use it on the plate?

Thanks you much you are amazing Bro

Bueno, a probar
