Solutions

Diagnóstico rápido

If you see E003, visually check for paper caught in tray 1 or 2. If no paper is visible, the issue may be a dirty sensor in the main paper path.

Solución paso a paso

  1. Remove tray: Pull out the affected paper tray entirely to inspect for torn paper scraps.
  2. Clean rollers: Clean feed rollers with a slightly damp cloth to remove paper dust and debris.
  3. Reload paper: Adjust the side guides to the paper size and reinsert the tray firmly.

Prevención y mantenimiento

Use standard weight paper and keep it in a humidity-controlled environment. Avoid overfilling the trays beyond the maximum line, and ensure side guides are correctly tensioned.

Cuándo llamar a un técnico

If the error persists after cleaning the rollers and verifying the paper path, the paper pass sensor (flag) might be faulty and requires a service visit.
