System Error Codes and Warnings - Explanation

System Error Codes explain which component/system is failing and what action should be taken to resolve the problem.
System Error Codes are displayed directly on the front panel (but can also be seen on the Information Page) and have been defined in the format XX.YZ. or XX.n:YZ.m.
  • XX: Service Part (2 digits).
  • n: Service Part Index (if more than one used in the product) - Optional.
  • e.g. Identify the Ink Supply (color and number).
  • Y: Who should perform the action (1 digit) - (User or Service Engineer).
  • Z: Action to perform (1 digit).
  • m: additional actions/information to consider (1 digit) - Optional.
  • e.g. Non-authorized ink was detected, PM was triggered or Printhead in/out of Warranty.

The following table explains the XX part of the System Error Code or Warning:
