Actually I fixed it by changing a SMD-condenser on the display backplane.
Unfortunately i can't post a photo.
Please post or send me yours solution.
I will check if I can do same on my printer.
It also has some lines running over the panel of the display.I have followed the instructions as listed in solution 1 were i unplugged the printer from the power supply, waited for 10 min and powered up the unit again. Basically giving the unit a hard reset.
The printer i have is the HP Officejet Pro 8600 (FPU No:CM749-64001).
After re-applying the power to the printer again, the display started up with the HP logo and looked pretty good again as it should, but after a couple of seconds it started fading away again and ended up back to were it was before the power down session.
From this i am assuming that the display has incurred some damage internally and i would probably have to replace it at some point.
Just to save on the money side i think i will run it as it is at the moment and just wait until it completely bombs out.
