Epson SureLab D1070 error W-0001: Troubleshooting

The Epson SureLab D1070 error W-0001 indicates that the feed sensor is not detecting the paper roll properly. This is commonly caused by an uneven paper edge or improper loading alignment. Why does my SureLab D1070 show error W-0001? It usually means the machine cannot engage the paper into the print path.

Solutions

Quick Diagnosis

The error W-0001 appears immediately during the loading process. Inspect the edge of the paper for folds that might be confusing the sensor.

Step-by-Step Solution

  1. Take the paper roll out of the rear bay.
  2. Trim the leading edge of the paper to ensure it is perfectly straight.
  3. Insert the roll back, ensuring it slides into the blue guide slot.
  4. Push the 'Load' button on the console to engage the drive motor.

Prevention and Maintenance

Keep rolls in their original plastic wrap until ready for use to avoid moisture-related deformation. Clean the rubber feed rollers periodically with a damp, lint-free cloth.

When to Call a Technician

If multiple attempts at alignment result in the same W-0001 code, the feed sensor may be obstructed by internal debris or faulty.
