Charles,

Will have to check how to do a firmware reset.  I have done this on some
LJ4x ¨laser printers, usually to reset the Jet Direct card.

Its only got the 1 meg thats built in.

I have pulled my hair out twice with 2 different LJ-4SI printers.  They
both ¨were low mileage (not even 100k pages) and were jamming on the 2nd
page.  One ¨page prints were ok.  I put in the maintenance kits in (every
roller in the ¨printer), fuser, toner, and even changed the input assembly
in the first one.  ¨Turned out to be the main board in both.  HP said it
was a timing problem in ¨them.
I dont think this printer is worth the $$$ for repair.

Thanks
