  • 1Document obstruction in the feed path.
  • 2Worn-out rubber on feed rollers.
  • 3Dust on optical sensors.
  • 4Staples or clips snagging on the guides.

Solutions

Diagnóstico rápido

If the machine halts immediately and shows e005, look for debris inside the feed tray. Often, tiny paper scraps from torn documents hide near the exit rollers, mimicking a jam.

Solución paso a paso

  1. Power down the unit to prevent motor tension.
  2. Unlock the cover and inspect the intake path.
  3. Clear the obstruction carefully using your hands.
  4. Clean the sensor glass using F1 cleaner to remove optical interference.

Prevención y mantenimiento

Use specialized cleaning sheets daily. If the paper feed slips, replace the intake rollers immediately. Avoid compressed air.

Cuándo llamar a un técnico

If the error persists after cleaning and the scanner path is completely clear, the optical sensor unit likely requires professional calibration or replacement.
