50.9 Fuser Error on the Color LaserJet 3000, 3600, 3800, CP3505 series printers

Fuser error codes for the Color LaserJet 3000, 3600, 3800, 2700, CP3505 series printers.

A 50.9 fuser error is one of the most common errors. If you get a 50.9 error (or any 50.x error)  you can try turning the power off, reseating the fuser, and powering the printer back on for more printing; sometimes this will temporarily reset the fuser and let it print a few more pages, but in almost all cases the error will return shortly and you will need to replace the fuser.

Fortunately, the fuser on this model is VERY easy to replace.  Check out our instructions below, and purchasing options for replacing the fuser.
