Urgent refilling of HP cartridges is required in Moscow? MosToner service center - free visit of a technician within the Moscow Ring Road 24/7!
Do you need to refill the HP laserjet p1102 cartridge? Then you are at the right place ;-). Refilling of these models will be presented using the HP36A cartridge as an example, since all other models are absolutely identical in design. By the way, in the slang of service engineers, any of these cartridges is called a “gun”. It received this name because of a feature that you will notice during disassembly of its design. So, let's begin!
There is a spring on the side that helps the curtain, which protects the photodrum from light and mechanical damage, to close automatically. The upper end of the spring must be wound (the direction of movement is indicated by the red arrow) behind a small plastic side (the green arrow points to the side).
Refilling the HP 1102 cartridge will look like this:
Then unscrew the single screw on the side.
Carefully remove the side panel (you can use a flat-head screwdriver to do this).
After these steps, it will look like this:
Now you need to separate the halves of the cartridge. Grasp one half with one hand, and, of course, the other with the other. And pull them in opposite directions (directions of movement are indicated by arrows).
Great! You now have two halves of the cartridge. We take the one with the photocell.
Carefully remove the image drum without damaging its photosensitive surface. Clean it with a dry cloth and set it aside, covering it with something to prevent light from shining on it (this can ruin it). Then remove the charge shaft - it also needs to be cleaned of deposits (if the cartridge is original, you can use a degreaser or alcohol).
Now remove the squeegee by unscrewing the two screws on the sides. And empty the contents of the waste bin.
Reinstall the squeegee after applying a little talcum powder to it.
Reassemble everything to its original state by installing the charge shaft and photodrum (the photodrum also needs to be protected from light). We're done with this half, now take the other one. Unscrew the screw on the side (do not mix up the sides).
Now we remove this sidewall, holding the inner sleeve (pay attention to the photo - what the sidewall should look like).
Remove the magnetic shaft.
Remove the core from the magnetic shaft shell. Clean the toner shell using a degreaser if the cartridge is original. If the cartridge is compatible, then you should clean the magnetic roller with a dry cloth and only, otherwise, most likely, you will damage its surface, which will lead to printing defects (in this case, you will need to replace this component). Clean the gear too if it is in the toner.
Take the hopper itself and remove the metering blade by unscrewing the two screws on the sides
