Fix Out Of Paper Problem on HP Officejet 6500A and 6500 Printers

[@kennethsat]

It is not broken, only the gear moved. The problem that you show, has an easy solution, it is only necessary to move a gear to its place, with a mirror on top of the tray, you see. It is not necessary to disassemble the printer

@ Kenneth Falco unfortunatelly that's not the point too: The problem is, that the gear is broken (therefore it also is not in the right position - thats true), and therefore it has no power to rotate the other gears: Here is a video, but it is mostly no reapair for long time: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qaW7fWabjdKdo7M

Falco you have a video I can uses please

@@oliveriagonzalez46 lo siento, no dispongo de este equipo para realizar el video

Thank you. That was v helpful. Old vid but it has helped me to decide to give up on the printer after over 10 plus years of OK use. The pick-up rollers aren't turning (even after extensive cleaning) so Kapoot! Guess it doesn't owe me anything :)

I have this exact printer. It stopped working a few years back. I'm guessing during the storing the gear must have split in half and fallen off. Is there a way to repair this printer by purchasing the gear?

Thank you. Cleaning with alcohol wipes was the super easy solution.

[@Muxik4k]

Mine spin but feel the strength is not enough to pick up paper.

[@CP2020]

Thank you. Wiping with alcohol wipes was the quick and easy solution.

Hot glue on the small gear at it works again like a breeze, tx Kenneth

[@MrDarthvis]

Well if your method shows how to clean the roller, could you have shown it to work after by adding the paper and printing? That would show your method works.

[@303electronics]

If you try it, it will. In other similar videos I do show, for example this one: m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/a6THhY2IZceKgLM

[@MrDarthvis]

@@303electronics thank you. I tried it just now by cleaning and the rollers look like they are rolling. This is when there is no paper loaded, and it's rolling fine. But when I even put one piece of paper it doesn't feed correctly. It takes a couplr tries to feed up to print finally. So I'm not sure why it's not printing correctly on the first try.

Thanks. This helps me. Great

[@303electronics]

Glad it helped!

Mine Will load the paper when I push the paper with my hand

[@cAiRo7LoGic]

I tried all this other stuff. Only your suggestion worked!!

[@tomorser37]

This video is not adequate. A little glue on the shaft and slide th small gear back in place (using a mirror) and its fixed. No disassembly.
