Epson EP-904F Error 0x19
The Epson EP-904F is a highly advanced printer that offers top-notch performance for various printing needs. However, users may sometimes encounter error code 0x19, which leads to the display of “ASF LOAD POSITION excess speed error.” This error is usually associated with a few potential issues that can be easily identified and resolved.
One possible cause of this error is an encoder failure. The encoder is responsible for providing accurate position information to the printer. If it fails, the printer may not be able to determine the correct position for the ASF (Auto Sheet Feeder), resulting in the error code 0x19. In this case, it is recommended to contact Epson customer support for assistance in replacing the faulty encoder.
Another potential cause of the error is a gear engagement failure. The gears within the printer are crucial for smooth operation, and if they are not properly engaged, it can lead to errors. Check for any loose or worn-out gears and ensure they are properly aligned and engaged. Replacing any damaged gears should resolve the issue.
Tooth skip of the ASF gears or improper tension of the timing belt can also trigger the error code 0x19. In such cases, inspect the ASF gears for any missing or damaged teeth, and adjust the tension of the timing belt accordingly. If necessary, replace the ASF gears or adjust the tension using the guidelines provided in the printer’s manual.
In some rare occurrences, a main board failure might be the culprits of the error. If all other troubleshooting steps fail to resolve the issue, it is advisable to seek professional assistance in diagnosing and replacing the main board if necessary.
By following these troubleshooting steps, users can effectively address the ASF LOAD POSITION excess speed error and resume an uninterrupted printing experience with the Epson EP-904F printer.
