Xerox B305 Error 010-330: How to Fix

The Xerox B305 error 010-330 is a critical thermal fault indicating that the fuser unit has failed to maintain the operating temperature. This safety code prevents the machine from printing while the fuser is potentially overheating or failing to heat up. What does 010-330 mean on Xerox B305? It refers to a discrepancy reported by the fuser's temperature sensor. This high-volume printer requires this component to operate reliably.

Common causes

  • 1Defective thermistor failing to read fuser heat.
  • 2Burned out fuser lamp preventing temperature rise.
  • 3Paper jam preventing heat distribution at the output.
  • 4Damaged power supply board affecting heat regulation.

Solutions

Diagnóstico rápido

If the machine displays 010-330 upon power-up, the thermistor likely failed to detect heat. If it displays the error during printing, check for jammed paper that may be insulating the fuser roller.

Solución paso a paso

  1. Power Off: Immediately unplug the printer to protect internal circuits.
  2. Cool Down: Allow the fuser area to cool for 15 minutes before inspection.
  3. Clear Path: Ensure there are no paper obstructions within the rear exit area.
  4. Restart: Reconnect and turn on the unit. Allow time for the calibration process.

Prevención y mantenimiento

Avoid using out-of-spec paper. Ensure the printer has proper ventilation, as heat buildup can accelerate fuser aging. Always use high-quality media.

Cuándo llamar a un técnico

If the error persists after cooling and restarting, the fuser lamp or temperature sensor is faulty and needs professional replacement.
