Remanufacturing The HP-2600 Black and Color Toner Cartridges
First released in May of 2005, the HP-2600 series of color laser printers are based on a 8 ppm 600 DPI engine. (2400 DPI with
RET). The 2600 cartridges consist of the toner supply, drum, and waste chamber. Like the CLJ-4600 these machines use an in-
line, or single pass system. All four cartridges are stacked on top of one another and each color develops its own image which is
transferred to the paper by the transfer belt. This type of system is faster, and allows for a higher quality print.
This is one of the first cartridges where HP/Canon really seems to have gone out of their way to make a toner cartridge very dif-
ficult to remanufacture. The waste chamber which consists of the waste chamber, OPC drum, PCR, wiper and recovery blades is
plastic welded/glued together. The drum axle/bushings are permanently attached to the waste chamber. The only way to get into
the waste chamber is to either physically break or cut the cartridge apart or to cut the drum drive gear with a hack saw. New
drums are available with special gears, and new replacement waste chambers are now also available that include the waste
chamber, new removable drum axles/bushings, foam seals, electrical contacts, and PCR holders. The kit will also contain the
screws, springs, and plastic pins that will be needed to re-assemble the cartridge.
If you want to re-use the waste chamber, you will have to cut the OEM drum apart. This is explained in a later step. The waste
chamber for these cartridges is very small. The aftermarket toner has to be very efficient to prevent leakage due to the waste
over flowing.
The chips in these cartridges are the same as most other HP color cartridges, the chip does not need to be changed in order for
the cartridge to work. The toner low circuitry will be disabled, but after the user presses the “SELECT” button, the cartridge will
work. The display will then alternate from “READY” to “Unauthorized Supply in Use.”
As you can see from these prices (Current as of April 2008), these are very profitable cartridges to remanufacture. With the excep-
tion of the CLJ-1600 which ships with 1000 page starter cartridges, it is sometimes cheaper to buy a new machine than to buy
a full set of cartridges!
The Image Transfer Belt or ETB as HP is calling it is not a user replaceable part. It is designed so that a technician will need to
replace it. I looked in the service manual and on the HP web site but could not find a statement on the expected life of these
belts.
The basic workings of these cartridges is similar to the 4600/3500 series, but some advances have been made. Because of that
we are including the cartridge theory here. If you are familiar with the 4600 or 3500 theory, you will notice that there are fewer
parts, and the printing process is simpler.

HP 2600 Color Printing Theory
The Color toner cartridge printing process happens in a series of stages or steps. For the purpose of this article, we will call them
stages. Figure 1 shows the basic layout of the cartridges and how they relate to one another and the printer.
In the First Stage, the Primary Charge Roller (PCR) places a uniform negative DC voltage on the OPC drum surface. The amount
of the negative DC voltage placed on the drum is controlled by the printer’s intensity setting. See Figure 2.
In the Second Stage, the laser beam is fired onto a rotating mirror (called the scanner). As the mirror rotates, the beam is reflect-
ed into a set of focusing lenses. The beam then strikes the drums surface, reducing the negative charge and leaving a latent
electrostatic image on the drum. The areas where the laser did not strike the drum will retain the higher negative charge. Each
color cartridge has its own laser and scanner units (see Figures 2 & 3).

The Third or Developing Stage is where the toner is developed on the drum by the developing section (or supply chamber), which
contains the toner particles. The development stage is actually made up of two steps: toner charging, and the actual develop-
ment. In the toner charging stage, the toner stirring blade turns inside the hopper. As it turns, friction causes a negative poten-
tial to develop on the toner. In addition, a foam feed roller brings the toner to the developer roller and also places a negative
charge on the toner. These two charges ensure a uniform charge on the toner. Once the toner is properly charged, the toner will
coat the developer roller. The toner is also held onto the developer roller by another negative DC bias voltage. This voltage is con-
trolled by the printer’s intensity setting, and causes either more or less toner to be attracted by the developer roller. This in turn
will either increase or decrease the print density. The developer roller also has an AC bias signal placed on it which makes the
jump from the developer roller to the drum easier. The amount of toner on the developer roller is controlled by the doctor blade,
which uses pressure to keep the amount of toner on the roller constant. Attached to the doctor blade is what is called a develop-
ing sheet. This sheet improves the print quality, and helps prevent toner scatter.
As the laser exposed areas of the OPC drum approach the developer roller, the toner particles are attracted to the drum’s surface
due to the opposite voltage potentials of the toner, and laser exposed areas of the OPC drum (see Figure 4).

The Fourth Stage is the Transfer Stage. This is where there are some large differences from monochrome printers. The first step
in the transfer stage is where the transfer roller (which is located directly opposite each OPC drum), places a positive DC bias
charge on the back of the ETB or transfer belt. Each toner cartridge has a separate transfer charge roller. At the same time, the
paper is moving between the OPC drum and the ETB. As the ETB passes the transfer charging roller, the positive charge is picked
up, and draws the negatively charged toner off the drum onto the paper. This process is repeated for each color cartridge. As the
toner piles onto the paper, the positive charge on the paper weakens as the paper runs through each cartridge. For this reason,
the charge is increased on the transfer charging roller for each successive color. See Figure 5.
The paper separates from the ETB belt as the belt reaches the top of its path and turns back down to start the process again.
The static charge on the back of the paper is decreased with static charge eliminator. This helps stabilize the paper feed, and
also prevents toner flares (spots) under low temperature and low humidity conditions. See Figure 6.
In the Fifth Stage, the image is then fused onto the paper by the fuser assembly. The fuser Assembly is comprised of the upper
heating assembly and lower pressure roller. The lower pressure roller presses the page up into the upper heating assembly which
then melts the toner into the paper. The upper heating assembly consists of a flexible sleeve with a ceramic heating coil inside.
This type of fuser affords “instant on” fusing with little to no wait time, and low power consumption (see Figure 7).

OPC DRUM CLEANING
The drum is cleaned after the image is transferred to the paper by the wiper blade. This part is fairly standard; the wiper blade
scrapes the toner off the drum, and the recovery blade guides it into the waste chamber. these cartridges do not use a transfer
plate to move the waste toner into the back of the cartridge.
PRINTER CALIBRATION
At the start of all this is the calibration cycle. The printer will calibrate itself whenever the printer is turned on, when a new toner
cartridge is installed, after 48 hours of run time, and at 150 page intervals. Calibration consists of a solid block and halftone of
each color being printed to the ETB. As the printed areas get to the top of the belt, a sensor will detect them, measure the den-
sity, and adjust the printer accordingly. All of the calibration time settings are user controllable.
There are also physical calibrations of the gear train, and various rollers.
Taking test prints, cartridge troubleshooting as well as minor printer troubleshooting will be covered at the end of this article.
