hp 9000 does not power up

[eye4clr]

Did my maintenance today then sent a print and turned my back on the printer. When I came back a few minutes later to see why it wasn't printing the power was off completely.

I turned it all off and back on and checked that power is getting to the plug. No life at all.

Any suggestions?

Hello, eye4clr
Haven't you solve it yet?
I have the same problem with a HP 10000
I've been told it's the Power Supply Unit.
Any suggestions of how can it be tested?

In the Service Manual (troubleshooting section):
The Printer does not Power ON:
1 Check that the power cord is connected correctly to the Printer and to the
Power Socket.
2 Check that the Power Switch on the BACK of the Printer is in the ON
position.
3 Replace the Power Supply Unit ⇒ Page 8-43.

HP? When an expensive piece of technology like [solvent / eco-sol printer?] fails because of a POWER SUPPLY? C'mon. Who do ya love? Mimaki. Roland. Mutoh...which brand do you vote for the most reliable printer line / mfr.?

This unit is actually manufactured by Seiko, and the Power Control Board and Power Supply are susceptible to lightning just like Mutoh Mimaki and Roland.

This is not a part that usually fails on a Seiko.


eye4clr Wish I had one to sell you, all I have are cap parts and pumps. The upside is that they are fairly easy to install if you find one.

The good news for me is it was just the line conditioner/battery backup that filed along with the power cord its self.

Changed cords and plug straight into the wall (oh my!) and I'm back up.

Gotta love the easy ones when you get them.

"Oh My" is right! Looks like the UPS paid for itself....get that replaced right away, you could have brown out issues in your area. (but I think you probably are already on it )

we used to have a die cutter next door. The lights would visibly flicker at times the electricity was so dirty. It's gotten better, but never to be trusted.
