Solutions

Diagnóstico rápido

Error 390 appears on the control panel, stopping print jobs. Checking if it's a network or hardware issue is vital; if the printer doesn't respond to pings, the error 390 likely blocks the network port.

Solución paso a paso

  1. Full Power Cycle: Turn off the printer using the main switch and disconnect the power cord for 60 seconds.
  2. Verify Connections: Ensure the network or USB cable is firmly plugged into both the printer and the data source.
  3. System Reboot: Power on the unit and wait for the control panel to stabilize.
  4. Clear Print Queue: Delete all pending documents from your computer to avoid data conflict.

Prevención y mantenimiento

Perform regular firmware updates via the manufacturer's website. Keep the printer in a dry environment. Using genuine OKI supplies prevents waste buildup that can interfere with internal sensors.

Cuándo llamar a un técnico

If the error 390 remains displayed after a power cycle and prevents access to the menus, the main controller board may need replacement.
