Over time, particles of toner and paper accumulate inside the product. This can cause print-quality
problems during printing. Cleaning the prod uct eliminates or reduces these problems.
Clean the paper path and print-cartridge areas every time that you change the print cartridge or
whenever print-quality problems occur. As much as  possible, keep the device from dust and debris.

Download new firmware from the HP Web site
To find the most recent firmware upgrade for the product, go to www.hp.com/go/cljcp6015_firmware .
This page provides instructions for downloading the new firmware version.
Transfer the new firm ware to the product
NOTE:The product can receive an .RFU file update when it is in a ready state.
The elapsed time for an update depends on the I/O transfer time, as well as the time that it takes for the

by using the USB port. Finally, any jobs that are ah ead of the RFU job in the queue are completed before
the update is processed.
Use FTP to upload the firmware through a browser
NOTE: The firmware update involves a change in the format of nonvolatile random-access memory
(NVRAM). Any menu settings that are changed from  the default settings might return to default settings
and must be changed again if you want settin gs that are different from the defaults.

							Solving general problems
If the product is not responding as expected, complete the steps in the following checklist, in order. If
the product does not pass a step, follow the corresponding troubleshooting suggestions. If a step
resolves the problem, you can stop without  performing the other steps on the checklist.
Troubleshooting checklist
1.Make sure the product Ready light is on.  If no lights are on, complete these steps:
a. Check the power-cable connections.
b. Check that the power switch is on.
c. Make sure that the line voltage is correct for the product power configuration. (See the label
that is on the back of the product for voltage  requirements.) If you are using a power strip and
its voltage is not within specifications, plug the  product directly into the wall. If it is already
plugged into the wall, try a different outlet.
d. Remove any other products plugged into the same circuit.
e. If none of these measures restores  power, contact HP Customer Care.
2. Check the cabling.

c. Check the network connection. See 
Solve network printing problems on page 248.
3. If the product is in the READY state, check to  see if any message appear on the control-panel
display. If any error messages appear, see 
Control-panel messages on page 180 .
4. Ensure that the print paper that  you are using meets specifications.
5. Print a configuration page (see 
Information pages on page 138. An HP Jetdirect page also prints.)
a. If the pages do not print, check that at  least one tray contains print paper.
b. If the page jams in the product, see 
Jams on page 200.
6. If the configuration page prints, check the following items.
a. If the page prints correctly, then the product hardware is working. The problem is with the
computer you are using, with the pr inter driver, or with the program.
b. If the page does not print correctly, the problem is with the product hardware. Contact
HP Customer Care.
