If the display panel on your HP LaserJet reads “perform printer maintenance”, “perform user maintenance”, or anything along those lines it means your printer needs a preventative maintenance kit. Failure to do so can mean more down time. To clear the error here are the steps. ( I still recommend installing the kit.)
- Turn the printer off.
- hold down the check mark button as you turn the power on
- Continue to hold down the check mark (Select) button until all three LED are illuminated.
- Release the check mark (Select) button.
- Press the up arrow (Navigation) button until the message New Maintenance Kit appears on the control panel display.
- Press the checkmark button once.
- A message New Maintenance will appear in the control panel display and the printer will reset.
This is done by the tech after installing a maintenance kit to tell the computer inside your printer that it has been installed.
