Common causes

  • 1Excessive Friction: Dirty rollers preventing movement.
  • 2Foreign Object: Staples or paper scraps blocking the path.
  • 3Roller Wear: Material degraded and sticking to the shaft.
  • 4Electrical Failure: Motor stopped responding to mainboard commands.

Solutions

Quick Diagnosis

If you try to perform a scan and the device stops immediately showing E1, the motor cannot start or rotate smoothly. Listen for any friction noises or physical blockages.

Step-by-Step Solution

  1. Disconnect the power and USB cable.
  2. Open the feed compartment and clean the rollers with isopropyl alcohol.
  3. Verify there are no paper clips or staples in the internal mechanism.
  4. Connect the device to a stable power source and restart.

Prevention and Maintenance

Clean the feed rollers frequently to prevent paper accumulation and dirt from generating unnecessary resistance for the motor.

When to Call a Technician

If the error persists after physical cleaning, the motor or the control board has suffered a permanent failure.
