HP produce the CB506-67905 to fix paper feed problems from Tray one of P4014, P4015, P4515 printers and the related M4555 multifunction machine. The same kit is also used for the LaserJet Enterprise 600 M601, M602 and M603 machines which are strongly related and use many of the same parts.

Tray 1 is the multipurpose tray (MP tray). It folds down on the front of the printer, making it look somewhat less compact, However if you want to feed card the MP tray is essential and if you only want to handle envelopes or letterhead it saves buying the CB518A extra sheet feeder and tray.

A new page on the CB506-67905 kit is here.

It is normal to replace all three rollers at the same time. This isn't strictly necessary, the separation and feed rollers are likely to wear somewhat more than the pickup roller. Paper feed problems are often a bit erratic, however, and analysing which roller is the cause of a problem can take some time. Given the price of a kit compared with the cost of analysis most people will replace all the rollers.

There is more on paper-feed problems here .

The counterpart for Tray 2 - the cassette tray built in under the printer and any additional trays is CB506-67904 . For most users the cassette rollers are more likely to go than the MP tray rollers because they get heavier use. Some printer users rarely or never use Tray 1 so they will never need the CB506-67905 kit.

The CB506-67905 Tray 1 kit contains 3 rollers:

  • 1 x RL1-1641 MP Tray 1 Pickup Roller
  • 1 x RL1-1654 MP Tray 1 Separation Roller
  • 1 x RL1-1663 MP Tray 1 Feed Roller

It is rather unusual to have roller-separation for tray 1. HP possibly envisaged that some users would want to make heavy use of all the available trays.
