Solutions

Diagnóstico rápido

Error e3 is noted by the scanner hanging during boot, failing to complete the scan head movement. If you hear a grinding noise, a mechanical obstruction of the scan carriage is likely.

Solución paso a paso

  1. Clean glass: Clean the flatbed glass to ensure the sensor can calibrate brightness successfully.
  2. Check carriage: Confirm the carriage assembly is not mechanically obstructed.
  3. Update firmware: Download and install the latest firmware to fix startup logic issues.
  4. Hard reboot: Power off the device, wait 30 seconds, and switch it back on.

Prevención y mantenimiento

Preventative maintenance includes monthly surface glass cleaning and using appropriate roller kits to prevent dust from interfering with boot-time self-tests.

Cuándo llamar a un técnico

If the glass is clean and firmware updated but the e3 error persists, the LED lamp may have reached its end-of-life and requires professional replacement.
