But yes, going by the part number, that should be it, in part - the service manual is at
least two volumes, that's probably Vol II.
I may have to chance it and see what I get.
They reuse numbers for what I call "marketing numbers". For example,
with a LaserJet 8150dn, the "8150" is a "marketing number" and not
the
actual HP product number, which was C4267A. As far as I know they've
never actually reused a product number.
I know that's no consolation when you search for "HP 5480" for that
product, and get printers or supplies with that "marketing number"
instead.
