Remove the feed roller circled below by pinching the tab at the center of the roller and pulling it off the shaft. Replace it with a new roller.

Now replace the pickup rollers. Remove them by pressing on the locking tab circled below, rotate the shaft, and pull the roller straight off. Install the new rollers.

Reset the maintenance count on an HP Laserjet 4000, 4050, 4100, 5000
"The Short Cut Method"
1. Turn the printer off.
2. Hold down the [Item-] and [Value-] keys.
3. Turn the printer on.
4. Wait for RESET MAINTENANCE COUNT to be displayed and then release both keys.

NOTE: Some versions of the 4000, 4050, 4100, and 5000 will NOT have their maintenance count reset by following the preceding "short cut" method. This is do to the many different formatter board revisions. If the short cut method doesn't reset the maintenance count then you will need to go into service mode to manually reset the maintenance count to zero.
