Solutions

Diagnóstico rápido

If the Wi-Fi LED flashes intermittently, check your router's status. If other devices have internet, the W-02 error means the printer's saved Wi-Fi credentials do not match the current network settings.

Solución paso a paso

  1. Network Reset: Press and hold the Wi-Fi and info (i) buttons simultaneously until the lights blink.
  2. WPS Pairing: Activate WPS on your router, then press the Wi-Fi button on the printer for 3 seconds.
  3. Manual Setup: Use the Epson Smart Panel app on your mobile device to re-enter your network credentials.
  4. Check IP: Ensure your router isn't blocking the device through MAC address filtering.

Prevención y mantenimiento

Assign a static IP address to your printer through your router settings to prevent disconnection after power cycles. Keep the printer firmware updated to maintain security standard compatibility.

Cuándo llamar a un técnico

If the network card fails to initialize after multiple factory resets, the internal wireless module may have sustained hardware damage. Professional service is required for board-level repairs.
