Solutions

Diagnóstico rápido

The 62.00 code occurs during scanner initialization. If you hear clicking sounds when powering on, it's almost certain the carriage is jammed or the motor is out of sync.

Solución paso a paso

  1. Power cycle: Turn off the printer and unplug it from the power source for 60 seconds.
  2. Unlock scan area: Open the top cover and verify that the scanner carriage has no locks or debris preventing movement.
  3. Auto-calibration: Turn on the printer; the scanner carriage will perform an automatic calibration move at startup.

Prevención y mantenimiento

Always keep the scanner glass clean using non-abrasive cleaners. Avoid placing heavy items on the ADF cover, as excess pressure can misalign the scanning system.

Cuándo llamar a un técnico

If the clicking noise continues after a reboot or the 62.00 error message persists, the scanner motor or the drive belt is likely broken.
