Common causes

  • 1Debris in paper path: Paper scraps trigger a false sensor reading.
  • 2Worn rollers: Lack of traction prevents paper from reaching the sensor in time.
  • 3Sensor dust: Accumulated particles block the infrared signal.
  • 4Internal board communication error: Transient fault in the controller.

Solutions

Diagnóstico rápido

Identify this error by the lack of paper movement during the print cycle. If the printer displays 300-01, check for paper scraps inside the tray path as it is the most common cause of feed sensor failure.

Solución paso a paso

  1. Power down: Switch off the device and disconnect the power cable for 60 seconds.
  2. Inspect tray: Remove the paper tray and check the feed rollers for debris or ripped paper.
  3. Clean sensors: Use compressed air to blow out dust from the feed sensor housing.
  4. Reset: Reconnect and power on to reset the printer's optical diagnostic system.

Prevención y mantenimiento

Keep your environment free of dust to protect internal sensors. Use genuine OKI toner to minimize residual dust build-up. Clean the rollers monthly with a slightly damp, lint-free cloth.

Cuándo llamar a un técnico

If the error persists after clearing the paper path, the internal feed motor or sensor unit may be faulty, requiring professional repair.
