Solutions

Quick Diagnosis

If you see error 32.02, it means the print media has failed to reach the sensor in time. This is almost always caused by a physical obstruction or worn-out feed rollers.

Step-by-Step Solution

  1. Open rear door: Check the rear area of the printer for stuck pages.
  2. Slow removal: Gently extract any paper; verify that no small pieces remain in the mechanism.
  3. Check tray: Take out the input tray and check the paper alignment.
  4. Reset: Close all doors and wait for the auto-reset.

Prevention and Maintenance

Use paper within the 60-163 g/m² weight range. Regularly clean the pickup rollers with a damp cloth to prevent slippage.

When to Call a Technician

If clearing the path does not resolve the error, or if you hear grinding sounds from the fuser unit, contact professional support.
