HP 5610 All-in-one

[Ken Rogers]

I had to pull apart my 5610 and a little plastic strip came out and I
don't know where it goes.. Now copy and scan don't work and I
suspect it's this missing strip.

Anyone have a working 5610 or a detailed repair manual and
can tell me where this strip goes?

It is 9" by 1/2" by 0.035" thick with a nub sticking out along one
edge with the label:
PLATE-CALIBRATION
JB61-00305A

HIPS< #2-3

I'd sure appreciate help.
Thanks, Ken Rogers

If the strip is White, it is the calibration strip and goes where the sensor
rests.

Example of a Canon 8400F Scanner. The white strip in the cover is the
calibration strip.

One final thank-you note. After I gave up on help from HP, I posted
the newsnet requests. The total time trying to get help from HP was
probably 3 hours. The time it took to get the CSM1 response, its
relevance and precision, allowed me to fix the printer and get it
working in about an hour. So newsnet plus CSM1 is worth three
time HP's worth!

Good guy this CSM1!

Best to all, Ken

I also have the same problem Ken Rogers had. I had to pull apart my HP 5610 All-In-One printer and a small plastic part came out and I do not know where it goes. The plastic part have the following label:

COVER-M HARNESS ADF
JB63-00252A
C1 >HIPS<

I would appreciate any help on this matter.
Thank you in advance
