Common causes

  • 1Physical obstruction in the drive system.
  • 2Premature bearing wear due to lack of lubrication.
  • 3Voltage surges causing the logic board to trigger safety mode.
  • 4Excessive residual toner buildup on internal gears.

Solutions

Diagnóstico rápido

The error code E010 is identified by a continuous alert on the control panel and a system lockout. If you notice unusual mechanical noise, it indicates an obstruction in the motor gears.

Solución paso a paso

  1. Power cycle: Turn off the main power switch and disconnect the power cord for 30 seconds.
  2. Inspect for jams: Open all side covers to check for paper scraps that might obstruct the motor movement.
  3. Restart: Ensure all doors are locked and turn the machine back on to check if the error is cleared.

Prevención y mantenimiento

Perform internal cleaning with compressed air every 3 months. Do not exceed the paper tray capacity to prevent motor strain. Using original toner is critical to ensure proper lubrication of the imaging unit.

Cuándo llamar a un técnico

If the reset does not resolve the issue or if the copier makes a grinding noise, professional maintenance is required to service the motor or the PCB.
