Hello everyone
Just posting this in the hope of making it easier for someone else
down the line - we have an HP LaserJet 4050 that suddenly started
throwing a 41.5 Printer Error and printing blanks. The fix turned out
to be very easy but if I hadn't figured it out it may have resulted in
an expensive service call.
My separation roller - the blue & grey roller in the paper tray - had
moved out of place. I just pushed it back in place and it was fixed.
Here's a page that has pictures of the separation and feed rollers on
a 4000 series printer. The separation roller is part of the paper tray
and is shown in the lower picture:

Hope this helps someone.
