Solutions

Diagnóstico rápido

If the display reads error 32, a sensor in the paper path is currently tripped. Verify if you can see torn paper in the exit bin or the toner cartridge area.

Solución paso a paso

  1. Power Down: It is safer to switch off the printer before accessing internal components.
  2. Clear Path: Open the front cover and pull the toner unit to clear the jam.
  3. Inspect Exit: Check the rear exit tray for any paper remnants.
  4. Reset: Re-insert all components and power on to clear the error state.

Prevención y mantenimiento

Always store your paper in a dry place to prevent moisture-related jamming. Inspect your feed rollers for dust buildup, which can reduce traction and cause multiple feed errors over time.

Cuándo llamar a un técnico

If the error 32 keeps appearing despite the path being completely clear, you may have a faulty paper-present sensor requiring professional diagnostic and repair.
