Removal and Installation of the cp5525, cp5225, M750 and M775 Transfer Belt



This is the intermediate transfer belt assembly (ITB) for use in the HP Color LaserJet CP5225 CP5525 M750 M755 series, this is the ITB only. Replaces the following part #'s CE979A, CE516A, CE979-67901, CE710-6790

You need to replace the Transfer Belt (also called ITB or Transfer Kit) when the message "REPLACE TRANSFER KIT" displays on the control panel. You may also need to replace the Transfer Belt prior to that message, if you are experiencing print quality issues that aren't resolved by replacing the toner or by performing Calibrations.


Replacing the Transfer Belt (ITB, Transfer Kit) HP Color LaserJet CP5225 CP5525 M750 M755

1. Open the printer's right side door

2.  Use both hands to grasp the blue levers, apply slight downward pressure, and pull the transfer belt assembly toward you at a downward angle.

3.  Grasp the small handles on the transfer belt assembly (circled in blue in picture below), and begin gently pulling the assembly out towards you, until a set of 2 larger handles pop free on the sides of the transfer belt assembly.

4.  Now grasp the larger handles on the transfer belt assembly, and continue pulling the transfer belt straight out of the printer until it is completely removed.

5.  Avoid touching the surface of the new transfer belt.  Install in reverse order, sliding it securely into the machine.

6.  Now you can reset the New Transfer Kit setting ... At the control Panel, press the Home button. Open the "Administration" menu, then choose "Manage Supplies".  Select the "Rest Supplies" option, and then choose "New Transfer Kit."  Use the Down Arrow button to highlight the word "Yes", and then press Ok to select it.

6.  After replacing the Transfer Belt, it's a good idea to perform a Full Calibration (or even several Full Calibrations in a row, if you are having print quality issues).  Full Calibrations help with print quality by aligning the color tones, the drums, and the color plane.  Each Full Calibration takes about 4 minutes.  To perform a Full Calibration: Press Home button to enter the menus. Press Down Arrow to highlight SYSTEM SETUP and press OK.  Press Down Arrow to highlight PRINT QUALITY and press OK.   Press Down Arrow to highlight COLOR CALIBRATION and press OK.  Next, choose CALIBRATE NOW and press OK.   Wait for the printer to calibrate (up to 4 minutes), and then print a test page. If print quality still needs improvement, repeat the Calibration. If multiple Calibrations don't help, some of the toner cartridges may need replacement.
