Solutions

Diagnóstico rápido

The 042-326 error appears on the interface when the press detects a feed stall. Users often ask why does my Xerox Iridesse Production Press show error 042-326 when the paper path appears clear; this is usually due to dust accumulating on internal sensors.

Solución paso a paso

  1. Verify tray settings: Ensure the paper size settings in the controller match the physical media in the tray.
  2. Inspect transport path: Open the doors and check for small paper scraps or debris.
  3. Clean rollers: Use a lint-free cloth to remove residue from the feed tires.
  4. Restart system: Perform a full power cycle to reset the internal sensors.

Prevención y mantenimiento

Maintain a stable print room temperature and humidity level. Clean the paper feed rollers monthly to avoid slippage. Using quality, moisture-controlled paper is essential for consistent press performance.

Cuándo llamar a un técnico

If the error occurs consistently after multiple cleanings and paper reloads, internal sensor calibration or motor replacement might be necessary.

Frequently asked questions

This error occurs when the feed sensor fails to detect paper movement, often due to physical obstructions, misaligned media, or dirty transport rollers.

It is not a permanent hardware failure, but it requires immediate attention to clear the path and resume production.

No, this is a paper handling error. However, ensure you are using certified paper stocks to maintain optimal feed performance.

Regular sensor and roller cleaning is recommended every 50,000 prints to prevent feed-related warnings.
